I'm a long time fan who is just a little frustrated with whoever advocates Gibbs do something because they know that will make the team better!!They might be right, we're all entitled to think that, but, they are implying that Gibbs is not doing this just because of some mis-guided impression (IMO) that he just will not adapt to what is so obvious to "everybody"!
I do not like to be 0 -2 BUT there is a big difference to me in that some of these guys think that we're 0 -2 and are "losers" because of something someone did or did not do! This is a team game and so far we have lost because we did not play well enough as a team not because of a single player (or coach) on either side of the ball for our team!
Gibbs learns from mistakes that he makes and the players make - I have faith that he will make that right and am just frustrated that so many think he is incapable or will not adjust to what he is experiencing.
I hate to see the skins lose too - what does that make me? I'd guess most people here hate to see the skins lose. I think that just makes us fans.
There are such things as good winners and good losers - Some who are loyal fans and others who just seem to want to gripe because they think they are entitled to and not give the coaches or the players the benefit of a little time to get it right. We are only 0 - 2!
My point is that we are not going to win all the games but if we play well as a team and lose then I hope it eats these other guys up because that is what they deserve.
We used to be a pretty sorry NFL team and Gibbs IMO has brought back some respect. Anyone who cannot accept a loss (when we have played well as a team) just because winning is everything to them needs to get a life and do some growing up - this is a game.
We need to start playing better as a team. I think that Gibbs has been trying to get a certain quality of play this year and it has not happened yet. We will be better when it comes together and we execute not make changes and then see if this new way works. You cannot do that at this time. We are who we are for this season - I believe the only thing we need to do is to play better as the coaches have prepared them to and to adapt a little at a time - like a QB change cannot be made unless the other aspects of the game plan are in place for that change to not affect the whole game plan.
It's a little early to scrap this season because some here think that is in our best long term interest.
