Maybe Jon Gruden ends up being Saints HC?

2021 is what 3 years ago not 10. And he’s been in the loop even at KC’s camp with Andy Reid this past offseason. And with us the year before and other teams. My whole point is that we need an experienced coach that is also a leader of men. That players want to play for, and it’s not just rah rah, whatever that is. It’s deeper than that, it’s passion. And passionate players want to play for passionate coaches. It’s a personality trait. Gruden has that in spades. Who do you suggest that is available or that could be available?

Problem is that his team from 2018 to 2021 was 22-31. I'm not sure how that would make him a good candidate for the job. Beyond that, given the things he wrote in the past, it's highly questionable that today's NFL players would want to play for him much less feel motivated by anything he said. There are many other guys out there with passion that don't have losing records for their last 4 seasons as a HC and don't have allegations of racism in their past that led to them losing their last HC job.

I can't help but think that had he been fired for his terrible record, instead of off field issues, nobody would want to hire him. And there was every reason to fire him based on his team not performing on the field. And frankly, his one Super Bowl win came with a team that was built by Tony Dungy.

I mean if you just want a guy with passion, then promote Rizzi. And there are many others that have as much or more passion for the game than Gruden. You/We just don't know about them because they didn't spend 10 years on TV.
