Bring unto me, Jon David Gruden...


SIGCHI222

Recommended Posts

He was let go in Tampa in part because the majority of the team hated his guts and said they wouldn't play for him.

After winning the Super Bowl with Tony Dungy's team, he never even sniffed it again.

Throw in that rather than developing quarterbacks, he just kept switching them.

Yeah, he's fun to watch on MNF and Gruden's QB Camp.

He should stay there.

Yeah, he'd have Cam start one game, then go to Derek the next, followed by Clausen, then he'd bring in Jeff Garcia for 2 weeks, followed by Donovan McNabb for a week, then go back to Cam saying he has always been his guy.

I love his personality on TV, but hate him as a coach.

You can add me to the "I have no interest in Gruden" column.

It would be different if he had either inspired his players to move mountains OR had them playing at a high level despite hating him. Instead he managed to extract some success from another regime's players then completely lost control of his locker room because noone could stand him while simultaneously failing to get them even close to replicating his initial success.

Not to mention the never ending parade of QBs because all the cool coaches need to start camp with a six-pack right?

    • Trade up for a project was dumb, he's gonna be 25 next month. By the time you're deciding on whether he's worth the 5th year option or a big contract you're already gonna be thinking about moving on soon either way.  
    • I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......  
    • Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.
