He was a Coryell guy who never had the QB he wanted for that type offense in DC, but he adjusted his offenses to his talent and won 3, when the Giants and 49ers were competition. I can't imagine what he would have done with the right QB.

[robertmarino]

Im sure Coach Gibbs family shared all the good times as winners

[bradchang]

Joe is a wonderful mentor and role model... all class! God bless him.

[vppnbrent]

I could listen to Coach Gibbs for hours!

[jimdunleavy]

The Redskins were never the same once he left. I am glad I saw the Skins when they were actually really good and it is all because of Gibbs.

[joseywales]

as you get older...stuff like this comes into focus

[redmustangredmustang]

What made Joe so great is that he stood in his lane which was the offensive side and delegated his responsibilities. Richie Pettibone did the defense and Joe stayed away from that. Bobby Beathard was able to draft the right guys and it all worked out.

This man was driven. Always liked him.

[MBBurchette]

Love that man.
Beyond the wins and the championships, he was - and IS a class act. HTTR.

The Greatest Football Coach to Ever Live. He and Bobby Beathard build trenches that lasted almost 15 Years durable and took average QBs to beat the entire league 3 TIMES! No other coach comes close to that!!! Imagine if he had a star like Belichick does Brady!

Another great interview series with Graham. After seeing that he was going to get in depth with Joe Gibbs, I couldn’t wait to watch. JGR has been my favorite team, when Bobby Labonte, my favorite driver of all time, joined it was sealed. Then Smoke, awesome.

Thanks Graham!

Don’t like jgr on the track per se as I grew up a Hendricks motors guy but, this has given me a new appreciation for joe Gibbs and what he’s been through, both he and Rick Hendrick are living legends who have been through more than many have multiple times over and still they rise. Resilient men.

[tjohnsonjr]

God bless you Joe we have never been the same without

[robertdupre]

I served him today at my job I didn't even know who he was until later because he left me a little booklet with his life story

[berl.]

When I think of him. I think of Sean Taylor. RIP 🙏🏼

Joe Gibbs was that coach you worked your ass off for.

[williamfrawley]

I talked to a friend 9f mine who started out coaching at Eastern Illinois when Mike Shanahan was there and he was friends with Mike Tice. He told me that coaches work 16 and 18 hour days one regular basis. No family life and never see the kids. He quit coaching and went in to insurance.
Bottom line you have to have the most understanding wife on the planet. NO LIFE!!!!

Greatness requires sacrifice. It is what it is

[jaydrains]

Coaching an nfl team took care of his family at the time, end of story, no explanation or regrets.. to progress you have to sacrifice

Joe Gibbs is one of the best coaches of all time. GOD bless him, in the name of JESUS CHRIST.
