TK Posted January 8, 2004 Share Posted January 8, 2004 http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A1111-2004Jan8.html Gibbs: The Thrill of the Challenge Brought Me Back Associated Press Thursday, January 8, 2004; 6:03 PM Joe Gibbs says the challenge of turning the Redskins into a contender again is what brought him out of retirement. Gibbs told a packed, 50-minute news conference today at Redskins Park that he has no master plan or timetable for returning the team to the playoffs of the Super Bowl. He says his goal is to have his players work as hard as they can on every play. Gibbs says he and owner Dan Snyder had intensive discussions over the past two weeks, going over every detail of the operation. He says they never discussed money until the last minute, because he knew he's be well taken care of. Gibbs' salary is reported to be about the same as his predecessor Steve Spurrier -- $5 million dollars a year. Gibbs says he is still in the process of assembling his coaching staff. He says he and his assistants have never had any clearly defined roles -- everyone will work together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
