It could be pretty fun. Here's the recent list of coaches taking over teams with a bad record and turning things around in just one season:
- Reid in KC
- Caldwell in Detroit
- Pettine in Cleveland
There's got to be more, I'm too busy to research right now.
Again, Gruden hasn't shown any indication he's anywhere near ready to be a pro HC. Sloppy, unprepared and often unmotivated team, especially his unit on offense.
His x's and o's are maybe worse than leadership qualities too, but that was issue going back to Cincy and nobody should be surprised there.
