Look at the Bucs drafts from 2002-2008 and you’ll see Gruden’s draft “prowess.” His drafts felt like a troll.

[@theSammyM333]

Dungy built supreme team and got fired just before Tampa´s Dynasty was starting. Gruden had no time to destroy greatest NFL defense in first year, but next season we all saw the truth of Gruden´s talent.

[@cJames404]

That’s what’s so weird about his history. Everyone forgets this. Brandon didn’t even mention it in his video. When Gruden was hired by ESPN, fans all acted like he was a modern day football god. While the truth was it took him only a few seasons to turn the Bucs back into what they had been until Dungy arrived - irrelevant. That’s going to happen to any coach who doesn’t like young players, said it wasn’t his job to develop rookie QBs and collected veteran QBs to prove he could turn any QB around.

Let me explain the simple nature of Jon Gruden, he’s a very simple creature that can be summed up with one word; EGO. He and Mayock refused to draft blue chip prospects because they needed to look smarter than everyone else by taking players who no one else thought was good. So winning wasn’t their top priority, nurturing their ego was the top priority.

[@marcusrichardson1460]

[@daveatkins3796]

There was no way Gruden was ever going to live up to that contract nor make it justifiable. Not even close. So what do the Raiders do? Go for one gimmicky hire to the next one.

i never got the jon gruden coach hype....hes a great personality on tv , a good anaylst, he was great on mnf but as a coach hes never adapted to his team's strength and didnt learn to adjust to where the game way headed, its why he failed in tampa bay a few years after the superbowl... the sports media thinks a few funny or entertaining soundbites by gruden means hes a great coach, he was an ok coach to mediocre

As a raiders fan when Davis fired del Rio and brought gruden back with a ridiculous contract I was very much against it. I respect gruden for what he did 20 years earlier but I would of liked him to stay jn the booth calling games and for del Rio to have gotten one more year.

[@HzizsVynryn]

When Gruden/his team pushed out Marquette King I started having serious doubts. Everything since then never really cleared them up.

[@DevilKillerJCS]

@@HzizsVynryn Yeah, that was a major head scratcher, but then again, nearly every decision Gruden/Mayock made was like that. Getting rid of 3 pro bowl O-linemen before last year's draft was probably the dumbest one, especially considering who they got to replace that (Leatherwood). Only good picks they got were Crosby and Renfrow, and neither are first round picks (though if there was a redraft both probably would be now lol). But yeah, I'm in the same boat as many other Raiders fans; the Del Rio firing then Gruden hiring was not something I was excited about. I thought he'd destroy the team on purpose tbh (Gruden had a grudge against Al Davis, nevermind the fact that he passed away). That didn't happen but he still screwed the team up during his time there. Really surprised he didn't get rid of Carr.

[@Dr.Spatula]

@@HzizsVynryn not that weird when you consider only one team tried to pick him up. Doesn't matter how good of a kicker you are if your penalties fuck the field position

[@HzizsVynryn]

@@Dr.Spatula That happened once or twice and King apologized for it. Any team, even the Patriots, will ask about a talented athlete and figure out the attitude adjustment later. The lack of ANY interest (according to King) led him to believe his reputation was being damaged and he couldn't fight it. He was too talented to not be courted.

Gruden may been a bad coach, but damn, the 2021-22 Raiders Players were some of the most hard working players that had heart and made the playoffs to barely losing to Bengals.

They're always a thorn in the sides of the actual competitors in the AFC West but the last time they were truly competitive they got lucky with a legendary career renaissance performance from Rich Gannon.

[@paolo-n2000]

Gruden took a playoff contending team on verge and dismantled it! He traded away the teams best player in Khalil Mack, the best WR in Amari and used those 1st round picks to draft a bunch of scrubs!!!! Amari for Jonathan Abrams. Khalil Mack for Josh Jacobs, Damon Arnette and Bryan Edwards. Cle Ferrell = bust. Henry Ruggs = bust. Leatherwood = bust. Just an overall abysmal display of horrendous player personnel decisions!!!

[@sharky2404]

And then they made the playoffs again

[@whosaidthat84]

I remember during contract negotiations, Mack's camp had mentioned how Gruden never reached out to Khalil or even tried to. Compare to that to when Aaron Donald was negotiating with the Rams and how McVay and Snead were in constant contact with his camp and eventually got the deal done. Both were from the best defensive players from the 2014 draft and look at how different their careers turned out.

They immediately collapsed and have been 0-2 in playoff games since, never making it to the divisional round. That's the Jon Gruden he wanted.

[@ElZappata]

…his father traded him …he clashed with AD…but he never wanted to go

All you need to know about Jon Gruden is he took Cadillac Williams over Aaron Rodgers, DeMarcus Ware and Adam Jones. And had it not been for Tony Dungy assembling a historically great defense he wouldn't have a ring.

To be fair, Cadillac did win ROY, but then blew out both patella tendons in back to back seasons. He did play for a few more years after that, but in backup roles. The fact he played at all after blowing both out is pretty remarkable.

As a Chiefs fan I was excited for the Gruden era, because Gruden was more BS than coach and Mayock was no different so I believed they were going in the wrong direction once this happened. Now one thing you maybe didn't put together but deserves some thought. Perhaps McKenzie was fired because of Gruden's color issues? I wonder what Mark's father would think about all of this considering his advocating civil rights? He was the first NFL owner in the modern era to hire a black head coach. Now saying all of that I do believe Gruden was the scapegoat to make sure there weren't continued investigations from what was discovered in Washington. I think all of that needs to come out in the clear. In fact, Goddell probably needs to be fired for not allowing the information be revealed. Now that we've reached the whole streaming factor Goddell will probably stay on a couple more years and make his exit with a nice retirement package. Perna, maybe you should try and do a balls deep in depth investigative story on the emails situation? I'm guessing there might be some sources out there that may know something more information than what we've been given.

He needed to be more pass heavy and never went that direction. Also his defensive coordinators were also from a bygone generation as well.

I think in a few years people will look back and give Mayock more credit...He's not that bad...he should never have cowered to gruden

[@PeaceTrainUSA-1000]

It's not like Gruden didn't have a history of bad personnel decision-making.

[@markpage9886]

I plan to learn from this experience: Next time I won't get caught.

[@alonzosymalla8638]

Church goers are seeking forgiveness, from a mystical being, for all the rotten things they have done during the week.

[@NaviDoodlez]

I did the one chip challenge last night, and i can safely say that jacket on you is causing me more gastrointestinal stress...

[@CSLGSKS]

I support Jon Gruden coaching in the NFL again, especially for a division rival of my favorite team.

[@jeffrapier947]

How many showers did you have to take to feel clean after wearing that jacket?

[@jeffmcdonald4225]

Can we all just agree that the real crime here is that haircut on Mr. Davis?

[@SuperStarTidus18]

I live in Las Vegas, but I hate the Raiders… I would have rather get the damn Jags tbh.

[@Giveme1goodreason]

Going to church doesn’t make you a good person, in fact most of the trashist people I’ve ever met have validated being trash by claiming they’re going to church so it’s ok. Being married for 31 years also not a massive achievement.

[@gbooth431]

Jacobs an average rb? Dude led the league in rushing last year

[@darkcloudproductions4866]

I knew Gruden was going be trash when he was ESPN telling everybody to draft Johnie Manzelle 😂 so glad they found those emails

[@claymac7895]

The reason Mayock and Gruden refused to draft blue chip prospects is very simple. They had to prove they were smarter than everyone else by drafting players others thought weren’t good. Ego, plain and simple.

[@alvinnochipmunks7707]

You take that GODDAMN jacket off! 😤😤

[@alvinnochipmunks7707]

@ThatsGoodSports im not gonna lie you had me in the first half 🤣🤣

[@xp7575]

"I'm a good person, I go to church" You just contradicted yourself bro

[@CenTexGarrett]

Going to church doesn’t make you a bad person lmao

[@foo-dangdaily1303]

HOW COULD YOU WEAR THAT PUKE-TASTIC LOGO?!?!?!

[@bulldogsbob]

Look at all the crap Carr has dealt with during his time with the Raiders and you will find no other Qb would have done better.

[@jeffreycahill3995]

Stafford in Detroit, cough, cough.

[@bulldogsbob]

@@jeffreycahill3995 Yep and look what He did when he escaped from Detroit and went to the Rams.

[@claymac7895]

Gruden never was a good coach. He walked into a super bowl with Tony Dungey’s team. He NEVER would have won a Super Bowl.

[@megamakina]

Perna shouldve went full Davis raider track suit. Glorious.

[@canon9999]

looking at this in 2024 josh jacobs did have a resurrection and is top 5 now

[@travistwelfthman]

what is the over-under this year for incarcerated Raiders? (Incarceraiders)
