    Adios Senor Gibbs. Thanks for the memories. I think maybe the Sean Taylor thing probably helped him make up his mind to finish early.

    I'm glad that his final legacy didn't end up being that terrible decision to call two time outs back-to-back that cost them the game against Buffalo immediately after Sean Taylor's murder, but rather how he then led the team to 4 straight wins and the playoffs.

    Didn't Gregg Williams have it in his contract to replace Gibbs?

    I just read that it isn't true. Despite many reports to the contrary, he had no such clause in the 3 year extension he signed.

    That's my understanding, too.

    I think that GW may get promoted to HC anyway, and they should keep Saunders as OC.
