That's a pretty accurate assessment, but I think Gibbs should be a little higher than where he is at right now, he does the gameplanning right all week, there is nothing he can do to prevent the lost fumbles and bad ref calls that have occured throughout the season, those both have killed the Redskins immensely. I bet he has the Redskins as NFC Champions by the end of his term as a coach, he will figure out a way.
Is it really Reid's faut his team cant win w/o a QB? and is it his fault that TO got kicked off the team? I dont think his rating should be that low.

Plain and simple he has mismanaged the Eagles by taking them away from their winning formula of a balanced offense with alot of runs from alot of different runningbacks and an effective passing game. Brian Westbrook barely saw the ball before McNabb, Owens disappeared, and with a hurting quarterback and a star WR complaining every chance he gets and faking injuries, how can you not hand him the ball 20 times a game and let him wear the defenses down some for your other stars. I guarantee if Westbrook ran more, then McNabb wouldnt have needed to strain his injury so much, he wouldnt have taken as many hits, and wouldnt have been seeing so many people dropped back into coverage forcing him into mistakes, and Maybe McNabb would still be playing, but who knows?

When you talk about Tiki Barber tuckin the ball in a different way, it is completely different because he holds the ball much differently than does a quarterback, Tiki only has 1 fumble this year and it was lost, and Portis only has 1 more lost fumble than does Tiki so I wouldn't say that is too much different where RB's are concerned. But a QB can't tuck the ball in when they are back in the pocket looking for someone to pass to, they have it up behind their shoulder ready to launch. It's a lot different.

If nobody hits Brunell from behind, he wont fumble the ball.(Which is something that probably should have been adressed last offseason.)
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (JHair @ Dec 2 2005, 01:33 PM)</div><div class='quotemain'>Yeah they do need better pass/run protection I agree, but Brunell is left handed </div> Ok, then Right Tackle/Right Guard then.....Can't expect me to remember every single QB if there a righty or a lefty.
