Fair enough. I'm not penciling them for anything...just saying I understand why taking a job where you're going to be a rock star in Vegas with Jon Gruden would be more enticing than going to Cincy with Merv and Mike Brown. Fwiw, I'm bigger on Jon Gruden than some. I realize he did a great job building up the Raiders in the early 2000's, then did what Dungy couldn't do with the Bucs (and Sam Wyche's players).
It didn't end all that well (kinda mediocre) - but he never had a QB in Tampa.
