That's a bit outrageous. Apparently Gilbride seems to think that passing is the way to a team's success. Must be all of those Super Bowl rings he has!
I sure hope Williams can slap some sense into Gilbride's head. After seeing this coupled w/ some of the paltry #s of carries by his RBs during those same years, I am starting to hope he's gone next year.
I think his "success", never ultimately mind you, has warped Gilbride's sense of reality!
He started in Houston as a Quarterbacks coach. That is really starting to explain all of this nonsense. Maybe Williams should make him the running backs coach for next season!
