Gruden took Norman out of the N.O. game because his head was somewhere else.
So what does Gruden do when he benches him and they start moving the ball on his replacement at 15 yards a pop?
Just saying.
Professional sports are different than anything else.
I love the idea, but if that were to happen he would be fired right after the game.
Could Gruden survive the situation Bill B. did in the super bowl? Philly started picking on the Pats replacement immediately.
Coaching grown men who make more than the coach and have more job security than the coach is a different animal. I'm just saying it isn't as simple as some make it out to be.
