Quote:Dungy couldn't get it done in 6 seasons.That defense wasn't built in 1 season, although the talent was there.

Gruden won't come back and tarnish his legend because he knows it was gifted to him in the first place. Dungy would've got there I think. I think Dungy is a better coach, too.
Quote:I'm pretty sure of this as well. Dungy built a strong team and was a huge factor in putting the Colts over the top.
Quote:Dungy and Gruden, IMO, benefited from a change of scenery. I believe their road would have been longer (if they ever arrived) had they stayed with their respective teams (Gruden in Oak, Dungy at TB.)100% agree.
Along those lines, that's why I wouldn't mind a guy like Marvin Lewis. I think he could have that type of success here, where he's stalled a bit in Cincy.

NFL history is replete with "ridiculous" defenses that didn't win anything.
Yes, that defense was amazing. But the fact is, they didn't reach the Super Bowl until Gruden got there..
Quote:Do you know anything about the 2000 Ravens, 2013 Seahawks, and 2015 Broncos?Read his whole statement before you come in with your text vomit. You missed his point, which isn't surprising at all considering the source.
If you do, it is they had elite defenses and were not as good on offense as some Super Bowl losers.

Quote:Because we dont know the circumstances over the Bradley retention last year.
Quote:In retrospect, look at the free agent signings of Jackson, Amukamara, and Gipson on defense. They fit with pretty much every defensive scheme. Jack and Day didn't fit Gus' scheme very well. Vernon is more of a standard 4-3 DE than a LEO. Caldwell passed on Irvin who was a classic OTTO.Interesting to think about.
I think Caldwell was already planning on a new coach when he made those signings.
