Gibbs wins Week 16 Motorola Coach of the Week honors

NFL.com

Head coach Joe Gibbs of the Washington Redskins is the Week 16 Motorola NFL Coach of the Week, the NFL announced Friday. Gibbs kept the Redskins' playoff hopes alive by leading them to a 32-21 win over the Minnesota Vikings. Under Gibbs' direction, quarterback Todd Collins completed 22 of 29 passes for 254 yards and two touchdowns to help the Redskins gain 367 total yards. Running back Clinton Portis also recorded two touchdowns, including one rushing and one passing to Antwaan Randle El in the second quarter. The Redskins defense shut out the Vikings for nearly three full quarters and forced the league's No. 1 rushing team to try to beat them through the air. The Redskins forced three turnovers, including two picks and one forced fumble. Gibbs was selected as Motorola NFL Coach of the Week from among three finalists by voters on NFL.com. The other finalists were head coaches Tom Coughlin of the New York Giants and Mike Tomlin of the Pittsburgh Steelers.
