[Mod Edit] Jon Gruden could be a name to watch for upcoming Head Coach openings per Tom Pelissero (2 Viewers)

Currently working at Barstool.
Personally, I think this would be a huge mistake.

That would be typical. Hire a has been HC that the league hates.

Thread title fixed to reflect what was stated by the Tom Pelissero clip which the 104.5 ESPN tweet/article is quoting.

He said that multiple teams are doing extensive research on Gruden for their HC openings. Didn’t name any teams. He never stated that Gruden is in the running for Saints Head Coach like the X account & article is making it appear.

He did say that Gruden could’ve been the Saints Offensive Coordinator for the 2024 season if Gruden wanted it. But didn’t mention the Saints head coach opening.

Man I hope not. And for me it has nothing to do with the off the field stuff. Just don’t want a retread.

Would make sense considering we have Carr. Plus he’s a high energy culture creator. He’d have a Harbaugh like effect. Lesser players playing better than their talent level, just because.

Aside from the PR issue regarding Gruden's departure from the Raiders, he's just not a very good Head Coach. And his offense is outdated.

A has been former head coach. No thanks

He had a 10 year gap from the Bucs and Raiders Part Deux.
Now he’s four years removed from that.

My apologies on the title. Should have been more specific.

I would welcome him. The guy loves football and eats/sleeps football. We could do worse...Dennis Allen as case in point.

 

[CowtownSaint]

A true football guy and character, he’s got my vote if he wants to come here.

I don’t understand this obsession with following what the raiders did for the last two decades or more. Seriously, THE RAIDERS!!! That was one of the most poorly run organizations in sports and we continually bring in ties to that era. I mean DA and his coaches, Carr…..I mean I don’t understand it at all. It’s not a surprise we’ve turned into the raiders of the last few years we’re following their damn blueprint!!!

It’s like the golden state warriors trying to adopt the pelicans game plan when Curry retires. A 5 year old can figure out what the eventual outcome will be.

That's great.
One more thing to divide the fanbase further.
