Gruden fired
today, which is both dumb and smart.
Dumb because it's late in the game, and the hottest HCs-to-be have made the rounds and been presented with better teams. Dumb because Tampa Bay will now have to re-tool. They already lost one of the best DCs in Kiffin.
They're team is old and lacking of enough young talent. They're a veteran team with a coach who wears on players but was perfect because he's young enough to bring in new talent and push them.
Smart because there's enough veteran talent and if they want to make a more serious run they need to hire someone who can motivate a bunch of creaking bones come December.
But dumb, because this team was old and Gruden's a solid, winning coach. But I guess it's easier for some teams to rid of one man than to chuck an entire team of Diners Club cardholders.
And dumb because they also fired the GM, which means they are behind the game in hiring the two most important positions for putting a winning team together.

Wow!
don’t get me wrong, I totally dislike the Cowboys, but how can Jerry Jones sit there with Wade Phillips with Gruden and Shanahan available?
Passion For The Game, Loyal To The Name, Chicago Bears, I Trust In Thee, Standing Strong Since 1983.
Thinking same thing...
Cowboys have a pretty much complete team but the biggest need is coaching for them….Phillips not always looks dumb on the sidelines hes proved to me that he is a horrible coach
