Question, did GIbbs call the plays on offense.

I guess this question goes out to some of the older skins fans, but does anybody know if Gibbs used to call the plays on offense during his first tenure. And secondly who was the offense coordinator back in his first stint. I know it was buges for a while before they promoted him to assistant coach, but i don't know who got it after that?

Yes Gibb's called the play's, in fact he is one of the great play caller's of all time, but he did have O-coordinator's as well, I believe Joe Walton was his first coordinator, he also had dan henning when he retired. Buges. I don't believe ever held the title of O- coordinator.

Actually I stand corrected, Buges carried the title of O-coordinator in 81, and 82, I believe Walton took the reign's for a year or 2 after that.
