Thought his play calling was all over the place, but he's proven he can develop a qb and HC a team. Props to him.

Even if Gruden is a rubbish OC/HC (which he doesn't seem to be) he would still be pretty valuable for talking Mike Brown into Dalton over Mallett/Kapernick and Dan Snyder into Cousins over RGIII.  I guess the jury is still technically out on Cousins vs. RGIII, but there is no denying this guy has had 2 coaching gigs and he's talked 2 legendarily stubborn owners out of making a very wrong decision in each case.

It's almost unbelievable the way he talked owners out of their love affairs with high upside guys in order to give more effective but less instantly-interesting lower-round whitebread dudes the starting gigs.  That's damn impressive.
