Since Snyderrato isn't going anywhere I am only for the Gruden thing if they blow up the roster, otherwise they are just running in place. It will be a different year with the same sad story.

why would gruden come to skins when we've proven our model to be a recipe for failure? i know it comes down to the money, but really, why would anyone (smart) come here without a change in the management structure?

Until and unless Vinny is convicted of a felony and suspended by the NFL Commish, he and Danny Boy will stay tight.

Can we arrange to have compromising photos of Vinny with a sheep sent to the Washington Post?

Any coaching change that keeps Snyderatto in charge is just more of the same.

That's why I'm considering a switch. Only a glutten for punishment can watch the Skins win badly and barely squeak out a win every once in awhile.

A friend of mine told me that Security was confiscating brown paper bags from fans at he stadium entrances before the last home game. Did anyone here see that happening?

If it's a "done deal" (which I doubt) as 980 is reporting, it's going to be REALLY interesting to listen to Gruden's commentary in two weeks on MNF when Philly takes us behind the woodshed.

IMO he sounds like an asshole. No thanks. There are plenty of guys out there that would be better than Gruden. But the first thing Snyder needs to do is hire a competent GM and let him make the hire... but that's not going to happen.

I see you failed to bring up his tenure in Oakland when he had the leagues' top Offense. Tampa is a defensive team, thats where their efforts went,Gruden never had much on the other side.

Limbaugh knows football as well as he understands politics. Or basic logic.

Definitely moreso than Snyder.

He'd still spend as much as Snyder, but better choices would be made.

Plus he did step in and take Oakland to the SB then went to the Bucs and took them immediatly to the SB. So if your an owner and think your almost there and would spend any amount to get what you want then perhaps Gruden is the man to get the best out of what players we have now. but I would rather DS think long term and dump Vinny, bring in a bonafied GM or someone who is good at evaluating talent at GM and bring in a bonafied HC to start all over and run the team like it should be run.

Never heard him talk football I can see.


Anyways, back to the topic, I'd take Gruden. Anyone that can win with Al Davis in charge could win under Snyder.
