HardyNickerson56 Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 The title says it all, Gruden had his chance this year, failed miserably when it counted, now it is time for him to go. I guarantee the Bucs will finish no better than 5-11 next year. I say we save ourselves the trouble and can him now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HardyNickerson56 Posted January 12, 2006 Author Share Posted January 12, 2006 Huh? Are you joking? Not at all, he peed his pants looking across the sideline at a HOF coach. Grudens "Run up the middle on every 1st down" mentality killed us. He should not be back next season, for crying outloud he wants Griese back on the team next year. I wonder if their is the domain name FireGruden.Com available? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diesel22 Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 I absolutely agree. Can his ass. Send him out here and we will make him our QBs coach !! But don't be too hard on him for being in awe of Gibbs -- most coach's would be...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@DCGoldPants Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 I don't agree. gruden is a great coach. If Alstott leaves, then sign Jon Ritchie to be your FB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redman Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 Gruden did more with less this year than almost anyone else. Honestly, are you not impressed by Chris Simms' development under Gruden? I am. The future there looks bright. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevinklein Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 He turned the team from 5-11 and 11-5...he won you a division, and a tough one at that. I'm sure your the kind of guy who would complain about any coach that ended up there. Gruden is great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhostRider Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 Gruden is a good coach, very similar gameplan philosphies as Gibbs. Tampa Bay is lucky to have him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PatFischer37 Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 Has there been a coach that won a SB that has been fired other than Barry Switzer, that won with a defacto Jimmy Johnson team? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rincewind Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 Has there been a coach that won a SB that has been fired other than Barry Switzer, that won with a defacto Jimmy Johnson team? Can we assume the Billick will eventually be fired? Hell, he should have already been canned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are crazy man, the guy won you a super bowl...have a little hope and faith...faith in gruden and hope you don't have to play us in the playoffs again. Did Hardy Nickerson ever win you guys a super bowl...thought not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zoony Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 Fine with me. Can him. That will make the buccaneers a worse team... and help our chances in the NFC. I certainly don't want to have to meet them in the playoffs again. :2cents: ..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HardyNickerson56 Posted January 13, 2006 Author Share Posted January 13, 2006 Gruden got lucky this year, the previous 2 years are much more of an indication of what kind of a coach he really is. He had one of the single worst free agent signings ever with Garner, from which we might recover in the next 2 years salary cap wise. I am sure he will be around for a couple of more years. We had no business winning the south this year, we just got lucky that Carolina choked against the Cowboys. Next year will be 5-11 again and at that point everyone will see how he is a below average NFL coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redsand521 Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 Wow...I can't believe this post. What's more amazing is that a Bucs fan would choose a Redskins forum to discuss it. Hey, you know the situation in Tampa better than I. I didn't think he did a bad job, but I do think he won the Super Bowl with what was essentially Tony Dungy's team. But I do think he can get them right back into the playoffs again next season. Again, you would know better than I. BTW, what ever happened to Garner? I thought he was good when he was with the 49ers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chachie Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 Jon Gruden built a Super Bowl team in Oakland, then turned around and beat them with someone else's squad in the Super Bowl. Does it really get any better than that? He's a great coach. Don't be silly and don't beat yourself up too much. Many here doubted Joe Gibbs could ever make it back to the playoffs.

ironmic Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 he took dungy's team to the bowl and got the credit...what a joke he can go wait for a camera to come in his vicinity so he can scrunch his face up then make his way to the closet with R. Kelly and Gary Coleman for some squash buckle'n Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ummm, it showed who built the better team though......Dungy.. But Gruden is so young for an NFL head coach. If I was the Bucs, I'd lock him up for a long time. He can only get better. DAMN!!!! He won his division this year! Cut him some slack! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tr1 Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 With that defense, they'l win at least 8 next year without any kind of offense. I hate Chuckie, but until you've experienced Norvis, you won't know how good you have it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OWUeagleMD Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 I know he made a bonehead decision to go for it on fourth down on (I believe) the twenty yard line with 4 minutes left rather than kicking a field goal to make the score 17-13. Always take the points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had 20 years of Norv Turners, before Dungy came along. Now we have an ego-maniac that doesn't mind losing as long as its done his way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
