    John Gruden- Anyone else can't stand this guy?

    I'm at the point where I am turning volume off to watch game. He is so over the top.

    I have never liked him. Hes such a dbag in the booth. Torico constantly blowing him doesnt help either.

    I cant wait till he takes a high profile coaching job and fails miserably. Everyone acts like this guy is the second coming. Tony Dungy gift wrapped a Super Bowl team for him. Even he couldnt penetrate it up.

    Is there anyone that succeeds in that role for MNF?

    Cornheiser and Miller were both awful. Football games are getting far too long. Too much time to fill between plays, reviews, delays, etc. I doubt anyone is worth listening to that long.

    Gruden is what Madden was, they both just state the obvious. "he crossed the goal line and thats gonna be 6pts" etc...

    He is very good. He can see the plays before the ball is snapped because he knows all the formations. Would you rather have someone that has no idea what's going on?

    John Gruden brings technical analysis to the booth. I like him and he likes his job, a lot, he isn't going anywhere.

    Musberger is the man, followed by Vitale (his passion alone is well worth the viewing), and then it is Gruden in third for me.

    Honestly most of the time (unless the three people above are broadcasting), I just watch the game on mute.

    I don't care to hear all that verbal dick sucking that goes on in the booth.

    When your team is winning he is the greatest guy in the world hyping them up as all world players, breaking down how technically sound they are. Getting you pumped up! When you are losing he is an annoying arrogant prick on uppers.

    Only Gruden would have went to the SB before except for that bogus tuck rule.

    Dungy couldn't win the big game. How many years was his team the favorite and they got knocked out of the playoffs? Throw in the years with the Colts and he is probably the worst big game coach in NFL history. Bill Bellicheck is game planning and running a nickel defense against the Rams in the SB, running all kinds of crap against Manning to confuse him, and what did Dungy do for years with Tampa and the Colts? Cover 2, cover 2, cover 2, cover 2. No creativity, no thought process, no nothing.
