Now if the Bears would only hire John "the anti-Lovie" Gruden. Win or lose, I know that I would see some fantastic tantrums and faces when the Bears were screwing up. And there's the press conferences. What a delight they'd be after Mr. I'm very dissapointed... blah blah blah.

If Gruden does come back I would take him on the bears as opposed to the chargers that are flying in the rumours. The only time I remember the raiders and buccaneers being good was under Gruden's control. Causing me to have a serious dislike for him until he become  the best color comment in the NFL. Personally, I want him to remain a commenter so he continues to trash the bad teams and refs while seemingly being the most objective regarding good teams. Point is, it all sounds good for Gruden unless he come back to the love AFC west for me. I bet you will get Josh McDaniels as head coach as the Bears former broncos from 3-5 years ago.

I would say that Tony Dungy built those good Tampa Bay teams.

Yeah Gruden won that Super Bowl with Tony Dungy's players.  After he had a few years to put together his own roster, things went South.

Do you guys remeber who Gruden defeated in the Super Bowl?  It was the Raiders, the team that he built.  What's more, Dungy won the Super Bowl with the Colts who were built by Jim Mora.  He also had Peyton Manning at QB.  Who did Gruden win the Super Bowl with at QB?  That's right, Brad Johnson.  Also, Dungy only won his Super Bowl because he went up against his best buddy Lovie Smith, who seemed none too bothered that his team lost because his Bears were going to get back there and win it next year...

Dungy was with Indy for seven years.  To say Mora built those teams is ridiculous.

That 2002 Tamby Bay team was so good because they had the top defense in the league that year.  That was not Gruden's doing.  It was Monte Kiffin.  Gruden is an offensive guy.

Was Dungy with the Colts for seven years before he won it?  I didn't think so.

You are right about Gruden being an offensive guy though.  Brad Johnson had a very good year and this was a main reason that TB won the Super Bowl.  Also, he took a terribly inconsistent but talented QB named Rich Gannon and made him into a consistent Pro Bowler earlier in Oakland.  The TB defense was great, but they couldn't quite get over the hump until Gruden got there.  I would love to see what the Colts with Peyton Manning would've done under Gruden.  I suggest that it would've been better than Dungy did.

I thought he won it in his fifth year with the Colts. Am I missing something?

It's plain as day.  It took that loser Dungy five years to win with Mora's team.

Go Redskins and go Colts!!!
Rookie quarterbacks you know

Would love to see Luck against RG3 in the Super Bowl, the number 1 versus the number 2 draft pick.

Probably very small chance of that happening, but who knows....

C'mon Hawks, prove the doubters wrong, and hopefully we can get a rematch with SF!



Estelle and Adol... best characters ever! XD

I am pretty sure if that happens it will not be if both teams make it to the conference chiompionship. The packers are just as good as the seahawks at home so I doubt the will lose. I think the falcons are weaker than San Francisco anyways if the seahawks can win on the road.

 

Personally, I want the Bengals to win tommorow and they have the D and the momentum to do it.

Crap, ESPN's experts all picked the Packers. Now I'm worried...
