Joe Gibbs doesn't get the credit he deserves. Winning three Super Bowls with three different quarterbacks.

Gibbs gets a more subtle respect. He's not a flamboyant figure, but as a longtime Cowboys fan, I can tell you, we KNOW how good Gibbs is. I think Gibbs accomplishments are particularly impressive when you consider that he never had great players. He had a lot of good players, but Riggins, for example, is seldom mentioned among the all-time great running backs (I think he's probably underestimated a bit, also). But Gibbs, like you said, won three Super Bowls, without doing it like most coaches, who built one team and were able to hold it together for a decade. He made tremendous use of role players, and really redefined offensive line philosophy.
