Going back to the well with Gruden: Part Duex, huh?

Honestly, I think both these guys are rather enjoying the laid back nature of their tv gigs, and get paid pretty good coin to really do about 3% of the work they had to put in as coaches and still probably make about half of what they did the last time they were coaching.

I really don't see a lot of lure attracting them back- they both won a ring. Someone would likely have to backup a dump truck of cash to probably even tempt them to entertain making a return to the sidelines.

... my $$$ is neither will be coming back anytime soon!

Generally an amiable guy who is respected, liked, and conducts himself in a professional manner. He's done well to take his broadcast gig serious, so he's got both sides that hold him in high opinion.

Besides, everyone loves Chucky's QB camp. It's gone from webisodes to a full blowout feature on ABC that's a couple hours long, and one of their more heavily trafficked series of clips via streaming for ESPN.

Media and front offices love personalities.

Too bad...i would really like those Cowher Time Warner commercials to stop.

I like Lovie Smith, he's also got a history with TB as I think he was TB's defensive coordinator before he went to Chicago as the HC.

Everyone is rejected by those two asshats. They are way too picky. Bet they have been asked by 30 teams, some of them twice.

they have been asked by the same dumpster fire franchises that have no winning pedigree

so I don't blame them for saying no.

Sadly that's way better than anything we've done.

I think even Gruden ask this about himself thus why keeps turning down teams.

What I think is funny is when Herm Edwards announces or makes a point on ESPN he is not interested in coaching and likes what he is doing. As if teams are knocking on his door ROFL

He does get calls, for front office jobs and position coaching spots.

Yeah but that's not HC the Head Cheese of a football team. That's what he talks about. Why would he take a lesser job? I can see front office maybe but not position coach after being HC for a couple teams.
