"Coach Joe is on the Warpath!"

Did you think this meant our Warpath?
Well, for all I know he could be reading this, but it's a quote from JLC's Skins Insider.

Sounds great! Gibbs needs to get mad. I hope the players take him as seriously as his players did in Gibbs I.

I'm glad to see him fired up! Sounds like maybe he's ready to call whatever plays it takes to win!

GO SKINS!

GO SKINS!

yeah, cause he's been kind of ambivalent about this whole winning games thing. Trying to call plays to lose. yeah. that sounds right.

Nice...that's what i want to hear. Sounds like the 80's, 90's Gibbs. Bring on the Lions.

good to hear. I look forward to seeing that on redskins.com. Wonder if they'll put it up?

[jsarno]

I'm glad he's upset, he should be. He knows we should be better than this, and maybe this will be a fire that lights our asses up!

It's about time to light some fire under these over paid premo's! I hope he reverts back to the old days and breaks some chalkboards and throws some chairs. Maybe these players will respond, maybe they won't but at least he is going to go out swinging souls!

Gibbs is not the guy to throw stuff and break thing it just not in him now or in his past.

Can't remember the game, but back in the day there was a story told by many old players & media that during halftime of a game he knocked over a table of gatorade & juice & lit into the team. They were behind but won that game.

He's not one to show anger & call people out, but he also knows when he has to to get results. Hopefully, it works this week.

I just hate to say it cause it's already been said, but that last drive wasn't as much about effort as play calling IMO. Nonetheless, the team lacked fire in the 2nd half & Gibbs & co. need to find a way to close games like that before it comes down to a last minute drive.

Oh I beg to differ my friend. Joe in his first tenure was a madman in the locker room at half time. It has been documented by players that Joe used to light some people up in the locker room at half time when things weren't going well.

You don't win championships by not motivating your players. I can bet on more than several occassions he has punched a chalkboard to fire his guys up.

That is absolutely, factually incorrect. There are documented reports that have Gibbs punching holes in chalkboards, knocking over chairs, and starting a foodfight with a bucket full of oranges at halftime to get his team fired up.

He HAS done this in his first stint as head coach. I haven't heard of him doing this his second time around. But trust me -- it HAS happened.

Joe Theismann on the Dan Patrick Show said that on a Monday after a loss, his players were in a meeting going over film from the day before. When noticing that his players weren't really into it, daydreaming and carrying on, he immediately put his fist through the glass on the overhead projector when trying to diagram a play.

What we see on the sidelines, and what he shows in public to the media is, according to reports, NOTHING like what the players used to see in private.

I'm don't doubt any of these stories are true. We all the know guy is competitive as hell. My point is he is stubborn as hell and in his 2nd go around it's hurt the team.

I don't see how you can say that. He's given up the offense to Saunders. I don't find that to be stubborn at all. I mean, I'm sure he's going to want the freedom to have his input with the way the offense is ran. After all, he is the head coach. I would expect this from any head coach who's been successful in this league.

haha what are you his roommate?

Plus, he's no doubt getting more and more pissed at the media--nit-picky things about Portis, the giants game fallout, etc. Bout time the man put his foot down.
