Thread: ALEX GIBBS

Alex Gibbs left the Atlanta Falcons at the end of the season.
This is a guy we should definately hire if Zigi really wants to turn things around.
Here is what Adam Schefter had to say about him.

"Atlanta also lost coaching consultant Alex Gibbs, one of the top offensive line coaches in NFL history.

Gibbs is regarded as one of the rare coaches who can overhaul a team's running game, have an impact on its passing game and improve an entire offense. He did it with the Raiders, the Chiefs, the Broncos and the Falcons -- and he will do it for whichever team hires him next.


His price tag never is cheap. But the results Gibbs gets are undeniable. Any team that wants one of the league's top rushing offenses can be assured of getting what it wants by hiring Gibbs, one of the highest-profile free agents now available. "

I have one question.


If he is so great why hasn't he been offered big head coaching positions?

Maybe he just isnt fit to be a head coach.
Look at guys like Greg Williams, Norv Turner, and Pete Carrol.
Williams and Turner are both great coordinators, and Carrol a good college coach, but in their tenures as NFL head coaches they didnt do so great.
You can be a great coach without being a Head Coach.
