Jon Gruden?
 

What about Superbowl-winning coach Jon Gruden? He has a connection to the Saints organization and he has the same distain for Roger Goodell.

Re: Jon Gruden?
 

I'd offer him a full time job as an offensive assistant / QB coach.

Re: Jon Gruden?
 

A coach has never won the Super Bowl with two different franchises so I would not bet on that happening. Also when a coach reaches a certain age they start to get very tired when Matlock comes on the air so its hard to spend those midnight hours innovating new schemes, fixing whats not yet broken, and bringing young assistants up to speed so they just stick to what they know to manage the reduced hours they can handle. To push to create something new they need to be really hungry, and usually its only the ones who have not won before who are able to do that like Reid and Vermeil, and then they build a new thing that works with their current players and run that until those players are too old. Gruden is surely an upgrade over DA, but I don't like his odds to win it all.

Re: Jon Gruden?
 

IDK but it would be nice to have a coach with any type
of passion. FWIW, Gruden went 22-31 his 2nd time around.

It’s time to go with completely new ideas & concepts.

Preferably someone from Shanahan’s coaching tree.

Hard pass.

Nothing to do with Chucky himself. I'd just rather NOT have a coach that the NFL actively despises. Especially if he does well with his lawsuit.

Re: Jon Gruden?
 

Matlock was good. But I never saw him shoot a bad guy. So, it's not worth watching again. He's no Barnaby Jones! Now, that guy could roll down a hill fire his revolver six times and kill eight bad guys!:p

Re: Jon Gruden?
 

No

Just like the roster, needs to get younger.

Re: Jon Gruden?
 

No

After TB takes care of their business, hopefully that will open the door for Haener to start against Atlanta.

Re: Jon Gruden?
 

Barnaby Jones was formidable indeed, I think Mcloud was my guy, any dude come galloping through Central Park on a NYC cops horse wearing the Marlboro guys coat, chasing a bad guy was just awesome. But definitely would take Barnaby, even if he was sporting the Clampett hat

Re: Jon Gruden?
 

But could he dive roll out of a moving car in during his Theme Song?

Mannix could! :chug:

Re: Jon Gruden?
 

Now Drew Brees… HE could roll out.

Re: Jon Gruden?
 

Great call, that bastard could do just about anything including getting his azz kicked in just about every episode.

Re: Jon Gruden?
 

It might be too convenient to blame him for what might very well be our most embarrassing home closer in history.

Re: Jon Gruden?
 

DA is too stubborn to play Haener. He wants to prove that Carr was the right choice even if he isn't. The most likely scenario is for us to be blown out and Haener gets a couple of late game reps in Atlanta.

Re: Jon Gruden?
 

don't think Loomis would allow his Lackey, DA to play Haener. Not at this stage of the season, too much $$ invested in Carr. Not saying he shouldn't be given the chance, just doubt politics would allow it, which is sad.

Re: Jon Gruden?
 

Mannix was a cool dude. I often wondered if he and his secretary, Peggy, had a thing going on.

Oh wait, did we just date ourselves? Lol

Re: Jon Gruden?
 

Oh you know he hit that.
