Falconsfan567 Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 I just wanna say Jon Gruden is such a classy coach. Did you guys pay any attention to when he shook Mike Smith's hand after the game yesterday? You could tell he was saying some really good things to Smith. It seems there isn't that kind of class going around now days. I just thought it was great to see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DUB Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 Gruden always compliments good football teams, and good football players. He loves this game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dem Birds Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 I like Jon Gruden a lot, I hate his team but I really like the man. He tells it like it is and seems like a genuinly good guy. I wish we could have him on our staff (not as head coach of course.). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish we could have him on our staff (not as head coach of course.).I like him but I wouldnt want him on staff. He doesnt know defense.....loves QBs but they all suck and his offense is always less than average. If Monte Kiffen wasnt in TB Gruden would be out on his rear. We shall see what the future holds for him though being since Monte is leaving. Gruden is a genious in the fact that he knows how to motivate his players and I give him much props and credit for that. I used to think very highly of his coaching then I realized that he suck at what he specializes in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jedi-Falcon Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 Gruden appreciates good Head Coaching. I think Mike Smith getting all up in Antonio Bryant's biznezz earned Gruden's respect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They didn't have a defense that good. He built that Raiders team that went to the SB. He loved Rich Gannon and he just hasn't found his Rich Gannon since going to the Bucs and his offense is too COMPLICATED for a rookie or young QB. The reason he wanted Favre was because Favre knew his offense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's one of the "secret tips" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~SEAMILL~ Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 I said the same thing at the game. I really like Gruden, love his intensity and passion and always seems respectful of his opponents. I hate the Bucs though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Falconsfan567 Posted December 16, 2008 Author Share Posted December 16, 2008 I keep saying to those that think Gruden is a terrible coach just look at what the Raiders have won since he left. Oh yeah that's right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atlantaprodj Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 The announcers yesterday said Gruden told them he was jealous of not having Matt Ryan.After his sincere congrats to Coach Smith yesterday I had new respect for the man.Now I just have to hate on the fans!

Yeah, I heard that too. Gruden loves to collect QB's - and when they asked him what he thought of Ryan - he said, "frankly, I'm jealous". He said he was something special. Ronde Barber said that in 3 years - Ryan will set the standard for QB's. So, Gruden is not the only one impressed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
