I preferred him over MS, but ... we got MS. I didn't complain, MS had a pretty good record also. The key is there really is no good answer. Look at Coughlin, making him a HC was questionable at best but he panned out for the Giants. Look at the Chiefs, everyone said Reid was washed up ( I would love to have had him), but his team is winning. Look at Denver, I never would have figured Jon Fox to fix his old looking antiquated system, but the Bronco's look good.

So I wouldn't completely pass on Gruden. Plus he's had a chance to see what teams around the league and what works and doesn't work.

Gruden didn't take the Raiders to the Super Bowl.
