Gruden...

Anyone think Gruden learned something from being fired in Tampa? If he was the same as he was in Tampa then I would agree wholeheartedly that we don't need him. But after having success as a young coach which pretty much went to his head, and being very difficult to play for and coach with, he may have learned something from being fired. If that is the case, then I would definitely consider him from an offensive point of view. He might know more about offenses and how to create a successful NFL spread offense than most anyone out there. After he got fired he spent 9 months going to NFL and college teams studying the spread offense and how to meld it into an effective NFL offense. Frankly he could leave Meeks in place which is our version of Monte Kiffin and things would likely be fine on the defensive side.

He also coached Brett Farve, pretty sure he can coach our young QB's up.

He was an offensive assistant and WR coach for 3 years in Green Bay. This was 2 years before their Super Bowl runs. He's had success with 2 QBs in the Pros. Brad Johnson and Rich Gannon, both who were 10 year Vets when he had them.

Probably the only young QB he has "developed" is Chris Simms.

Say no to Chuckie!

    • After watching Dan for 3 yrs now, I think I understand his plan. It’s a simple plan that should work for the long run.     I saw some of this last yr. Dan wants a vet and a young player at each position. I really think we go OT if one they like there. Moton is aging, Icky will not be back until 27, if ever. We need to get ahead of the tackle problem 
    • You are just stressing too much about these particular positions. You want to upgrade from Bryce and I understand that but you aren’t going to really get that without getting into a bidding war for a QB2 potential QB1 like Willis. You could possibly trade for Mills or the backup for Chicago but they are still gambles and their teams will won’t decent picks.  Again the Eagles thought KP was a capable enough backup to trade for him once their backup was hurt and won a Super Bowl with him as QB2. The point is most teams aren’t rolling with some stud QB2/3 that is going to push even a bottom tier starter. They are better off the building their roster in other areas. The Rams are rolling with Bennett right now as QB2 for example.  The goal is winning absolutely. We overachieved last year even with stumbling into the playoffs. Another year and this staff needs to take the next step in building a team. Will Grier has little to no impact on that….
    • Three straight first round WRs is straight up Matt Millen poo. Considering the draft capital we have tied up on Bryce after that trade we would basically have spent damn near all of our draft capital in recent years on QB and WR just to put one of the most anemic passing offenses in the league on the field. Clown show poo.
