Hard to say what Zimmer will bring to the table on offense and an OC, which is my biggest concern and why he's probably a 2nd tier type HC prospect.
Gruden has no business getting an HC gig though. His play-calling is uninspiring, he shows nothing on the sidelines, and a drunk driver is the last thing the undisciplined guys need in a leader. Better than Mike and Kyle? Probably. But my hope with Jay would be some kind of agreement that his brother will come in after him, probably after two subpar seasons. Given how little interest we've garnered from A list prospects I'm wondering if out next HC will just be a placeholder type.
