Gruden's offense in Cincy put up some great numbers over several seasons but he had a certain player type to work with. He had an outstanding offensive line, huge receivers and two big TE's that could catch and block. Look at the stats he put up with Andy Dalton. That type of offensive success in the same division with the Ravens and Steelers is an accomplishment.

I think Gruden has upside. If we are moving to a power blocking line and McLovin's prototypical draft pick is what Gruden has already had success with I don't want to move on too early.

Not that Gruden is Marty Shottenheimer, I just don't want to bring in another Steve Spurrier after two years.

Last year seemed like trying to fit a square peg in a round hole. I'm for squaring up the hole and seeing what happens.

As for mistakes, he hasn't repeated the same bone head mistakes he made as a rookie head coach. New QB coach, no delay of game penalties, and has handled the media in the middle of a shit storm ok.

To be clear, unless there is a head coaching candidate that you just can't turn down (if there was, he wouldn't come to Washington anyway), then stay the course.
You know a buddy and I were talking the other night about all of the coaches that have came and went in Washington, so let me ask you....

What is the benefit of being HC with all that is known about ownership, etc.. Is it solely the money? I mean i have a hard time believing that the job is attractive with all the dysfunction, etc, knowing that he doesn't have final say on who plays, etc...
