I realize everyone else probably knew this, but I didn't realize that the Florida Tuskers (of the UFL, where Haslett and Gruden worked together) was owned by Theisman.

Any word on who our special teams coordinator might be now that it seems we have HC, OC, and DC decided?

Of owners who have been in the league at least 10 years only 4 owners are worse than DS. R. Wilson (Buf), R. McNair (Hou), B. Bidwell (AZ), and WC Ford (Det). That's some pretty sorry company.

I get what your saying, but I really dont think it does any good to dwell on DS.

And she only has an hour before he's introduced as the HC to try to talk some "sense" into him.

Perhaps that is because their defense ranked higher than ours every year ( twice substantially higher).

Yes, but we did not obtain the entire Bengals coaching staff, just the part that wasn't better than what we already had. And then retained the worse part of ours.

WTF, Jim Haslett is staying? What does he need to do before he's fired, finish in the bottom 3rd in total defense 4 years in a row. Oh wait, nevermind, he's already done that.

please dont tell me that is true.

no way we finished in the bottom 3rd in defense 4 years in a row ... and the DC is retained.

[QUOTE=Chico23231;1054462]its amazing, isnt it?[/QUOTEe just maybe]

I can only speculate but maybe:

Haslett is being paid off to combat Shannhan's sabotage. He is already making statements painting Shannahan as the bad guy overriding him and making defensive play calls. Haslett is here only to help combat Shannhan's accusations.

Maybe you can't compare the two offenses as apples to apples. Dalton isn't exactly a top flight QB and that really makes or breaks an offense in today's NFL. I would be so quick to jump on conclusions about Gruden's worth.
