Gary Gibbs is the DC

[DJ's left nut]

I'm holding out hope this is why no positions have been announced yet.

We're just waiting to get Crennel and slot the two retread failures into their rightful role as position coaches. No sense in announcing either one as DC only to 'demote' them after you snag Crennel.

I'm also hoping that Thigpen grows 5 inches in the offseason and realizes that he can throw far more accurately with his left arm than his right.

I think both scenarios are equally likely.
