John Gruden is the Barry Melrose of football


Recommended Posts

For those on the board who follow hockey...

Melrose rode 1 year of Wayne Gretzky to a 20 plus year announcing career

Gruden rode 1 year of Tony Dungys players to a Monday Night Football gig and 100 million from the Raiders .. the guy once had five qbs on thr bucs roster and drafted Cadillac Williams in the top 5

Barry would start the TV broadcast telling us that the Rangers would kill the Islanders, no doubt about it

 

then when the Isles won he would tell us on the postgame show how he knew the Isles would win all along

 

yeah, this is a Gruden move

Gruden was a great coach in Oakland who turned that franchise around. That happened before he went to TB. The comparison isn't apt.

But Dungy rode Manning to 7 one  and done playoff failures...and then rode him to the HOF.
