Antonio Brown Frostbite Feet


Recommended Posts

I was wondering how it happened.  I was thinking being in an ice tub too long.  I guess that's the rich man's way of getting out of football practice.  I've seen him practice with the Raiders and he already looks like he's in mid season form, so if I was a Raiders fan I wouldn't be too concerned with it.

I don't see why he would hold out, but I also don't see why he can't wear the old helmet if he signs a waiver.  He could wear a leather helmet for all I care.  

He’s the new poster child of the diva wide receiver.

It’s the Raiders. Nothing they do makes sense.

Both sides look completely dumb, more so Oakland cause they knew what they were getting themselves into signing a diva WR. 

 

Got rid of Mack, Cooper, Lynch retires, now this amongst other dumb roster cuts they've done. Complete dumpster fire. But they wanted Gruden: lmao

Jon Gruden's Track Record Suggests He's An Average Head Coach

By: Ryan Phillips | January 3, 2018 9:30 am ET

Jon Gruden appears set to return to the Oakland Raiders as the team’s head coach according to numerous reports. While nothing is official, most seem to think the move is imminent.

While Gruden has been arguably the hottest free agent coach on the market for the better part of a decade, I’ve always wondered why that was the case. For some reason, countless observers seem to regard him as an all-time great coach who retired too soon. Given all the evidence about his coaching tenure, that couldn’t be further from the truth.

During his time as an ESPN analyst, Gruden has clearly shown a deep knowledge of football. He knows the game and seems to love it. But that doesn’t exactly separate him from any other coaches out there. During his time as a broadcaster, people have forgotten that he was never really much more than an average head coach.

Gruden’s career regular season record in 11 seasons is 95-81, with a 5-4 mark in the postseason. He went 38-26 with the Raiders (2-2 in the playoffs), and 57-55 with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (3-2 in the playoffs). After winning Super Bowl XXXVII with the Bucs in his first year with the franchise, Gruden’s teams were a colossal disappointment over the next six seasons. He went 12-4 in his first year and won three playoff games. After that his Bucs teams went 43-51 and 0-2 in the postseason. And those teams had a ton of talent.

Gruden’s career winning percentage of .540 suggests he’s an average football coach. Guys like Chuck Pagano (.552) Dennis Green (.546), Jim Mora (.541), Brian Billick (.556), Jim Caldwell (.554), Wade Phillips (.562), Ron Rivera (.576) and Mike Smith (.589) all have better marks than him. None of those guys is knocking down the doors of the Hall of Fame as a head coach.

Heck, pretty much everyone agrees Marvin Lewis should have been fired by the Cincinnati Bengals years ago and his career winning percentage (.534) was on par with Gruden’s entering this season, and is still within shouting distance even after it (.527).

Gruden’s defenders will point out his Super Bowl win as evidence of his elite coaching skills. The narrative behind that story goes that Tony Dungy was a solid coach who got Tampa’s defense to an elite level, but the offense was terrible. So the Bucs brought in Gruden, he turned the offense around and they won a Super Bowl. But that story is nothing but fiction.

Yes, Tampa’s defense was elite and it stayed elite, but the team’s offense actually regressed when Gruden took over.
