Why are we giving Gibbs a pass?

Let me first say that a appreciate what Joe Gibbs has done as our coach. But, I for one am not pleased with the way our team is being built. It seems every year that us "arm chair quaterbacks" know what our strengths and weaknesses are. And come draft day our team president comes out of left field somewhere with some crazy draft day pick-ups. We have to ask our selves, "what are we developing as a team, and per player and their position". We throw away draft picks, and over pay for over-hyped free agents. This we know is true. But, I am definitely not happy with the finished product. This is Joe's fourth year to get this thing right, and probably his last. We as fans demand better, and we have definitely suffered long enough. Look, I love this team just like you guys, but come on, how many post game shows can you stand to hear our coach say, "that team was tough, and our guys fought their guts out." It's time to have some kind of sensible plan, and to execute that plan come game day Joe! You may fire when ready............

Re: Why are giving Gibbs a pass?

We've been over this same topic many times in the past. Who is giving him a free pass?? We all expect better results than last year, Gibbs included.

Re: Why are giving Gibbs a pass?

It's not so much as giving him a free pass. But, what is our plan as a football team, and how are we going to get better at each position? We have no pass rush, our db's can't cover wideouts, our D-line can't stop the run, we get no turnovers. Our coaches have iron heads, and think that their names only win games. I hate to break it to them, but it is not working.

I don't think there is a subject in your thread title.

So what did you think about 2005? When we went to the playoffs.
And how do you think injuries affected our Defense, and overall team and record last year?

Re: Why are giving Gibbs a pass?

2005 was great, it's 2007 now, and our plan for building a team that can compete on any given Sunday is what I question. All of this off-season rumor, and free agent acquisitions leave me scratching my head. What pieces of the puzzle are we putting in place to be great again? I feel that we are being herded like sheep.

all noted above is greg williams responsibility. overall, I... well most of us would like a structure a GM could give us and demanding more draft picks per year and less FA busts.

Shut up.

No one wants to hear this garbage. I didn't even read your post because it's trash. No one wants to hear you whine about worries.

Why don't you move out state and become a niners fan. You know where I'm going with that.

Re: Why are giving Gibbs a pass?

Your assessment has been well documented by many on more than one ocasion, and further illustrates the fact that the FO seriously needs to reconsider how they make some decisions. Many aren't convinced that player selection by committee is the best policy, and that a real GM should be put in place.
