I can't believe I'm even replying to this garbage. I hope we do well this season for Joe. He deserves more respect and thats the only way we are going to get it is by winning! Nuff said!

Maybe their pole should have been a poll?

If I were ESPN, I'd be upset that someone made fun of my pole.

It's their own fault. When one is poorly endowed, it is not wise to bring attention to one's pole.

I don't know how anyone could be up in arms about this poll. Gibbs isn't even at .500 since coming back, and has had his two worst seasons in his career. That's nothing to brag about. And honestly, if we see another stinker of a season (5-11, 6-10, maybe even 7-9), his job should be in jeopardy. Most coaches only get 3-4 years to right the ship, or they're gone. Heck, everyone was wondering if Coughlin would get the boot in NY, and he made the playoffs! Schotty got fired too, and he went 14-2!

Most coaches, the greats Coughlin and Schotty included (:roll:), don't have three Super Bowl Rings to their name.

I hate stupid polls. They are made so that some person can keep his/her Job there. I mostly now watch the nfl network. Or check scores on my cellphone. I don't need no stinking ESPN.

Uh, thanks. Having only been a fan since the late '70's, I was unaware of those SB wins.
And none of those wins were during this current term, so how do they matter now? Tom Flores actually beat Gibbs in the Super Bowl, but does he get many calls these days for head coaching positions?
