Happy Birthday Joe Gibbs


Joe was the guy

Please join me in wishing a happy birthday to twice former Redskins coach Joe Gibbs, Joe turned 68 on Tuesday 25 November.

Joe coached the Redskins twice, the first time from 1981 to 1992, winning 124 regular season games while losing only 60 with eight playoff appearances, four Super Bowl appearances and three Super Bowl victories in that twelve year stretch. After taking twelve years off Joe came back to the Redskins in 2004, compiling a 30-34 record in four seasons and taking the Redskins to the playoffs twice in four years, the Redskins had only been to the playoffs once since Joe left the team in 1992. After the 2007 season Joe stepped down for the second and final time as head coach, Joe was a principal architect of the Redskins team we now enjoy.

In one hundred years Redskins fans will not forget Joe Gibbs.

Happy birthday Joe!
