I was listening to the Sports Bash on ESPN radio on my way home today and Mark Schlereth was a guest, both he and Erik Kuselias agreed that right now Gibbs is the coach of the year in the NFL.

I was like wow, I guess he really is!

Could you imagine, what an incredible comeback it would be! Of course another SB win would be the ultimate achievement for this coach that was left for dead by the majority of the media last year, but coach of the year honors should would be a hell of an accomplishment!

i have a good feeling about this team

I think we all here at the Warpath had high expectations for the Redskins, calling for them to go 10-6 and such. But nationally the Skins were expected to suck again. NOBODY thought they would do anything. That's why, if they make the playoffs, Gibbs has to get the nod.

If the Giants win the NFC East you would have to consider Coughlin.

no way are the giants gonna win the division,just because they dont look like a 31st in the league defense against us they are 31st,and that does'nt win division titles, but being in the top 5 in both offense and defense does.... .....

Dungy has 3 MVP type players leading his offense ( Manning, Edge and Harrison), plus add Reggie Wayne, Brandon Stokely, Dallas Clark and Ben Hartsock, that team is stacked with talent. If they do not win the SB it will be a dissapointment.
The Skins were expected to be a sub .500 team and are playing much better than the talent they have was expected to play. That is great coaching.
Like the Patriots who do not have the most talented team, yet they keep winning SB's.

good point but the broncos lost stuff themselves last year. everyone did and does think i am crazy but the brocos could have been the best team last year. Jake the snake took that team down last year consistantly. Jake has been doing good this year. We however don't have that problem. We aren't a team that constantly turns the ball over like th broncos of last year. Sure we had a couple fumbles that lost us the chiefs game but passed that brunell is throwing 600% more TDs than INTs. I think we have a great chance this year and therefore gibbs does too to be coach of the year. I think brunell will be comeback player of the year but moss will not be MVP unless he really keeps up this amazing pace. do have a good shot at breaking the record he will need atleast 250-275 in these next two division games.

Imo, it's too early to talk about this stuff. Mainly because some teams start out like this, then end up with horrible records. Look at Denver, they have started 5-1 the past few years then faltered late in the season. Last year the Giants started out 5-2 then lost 8 of their next 9 games. We have to have more wins then last year before we start talking about this, and other things like the playoffs.

on that note the gints will go about 2-5 in their last 7 games. They have played all of their easy games already. Last 7 for them is gonna kill them. laast year they ended 1-8 the year before 0-8, this is because the last couple years they have had easy beginning schedules. Some call this a consipracy to get media hype early every year in the biggest nfl market but whatever as long as they suck late
