-Gruden took over a Raider team that didn't make the playoffs the previous 5 years... the Raiders finished 4-12 when he took over.

-Gruden never had a losing season in Oakland with one of the most dysfunctional ownerships of the era

-took the Raiders to the playoffs and finished 2-2 in the playoffs with a journeyman QB (Rich Gannon)

- 1 of those playoff loses was to Tom Brady's tuck rule.

- 2nd playoff loss was to the Ravens in the AFC Championship when Tony Siragussa body slammed Rich Gannon out the game in the 1st half. one week earlier the Raiders shut out Miami in the playoffs 27-0

- Yes, Gruden inherited the Bucs team to win the Super Bowl, but he beat the Raiders team in that Super Bowl as an underdog against a Raider team that Gruden built

- Gruden's Bucs outscored their

playoff opponents 106-37 with Brad Johnson as QB the year Bucs finally won a Super Bowl.

Hire him already.....
