Hollywood loves a good comeback story and no coaching comeback would be more captivating than Jon Gruden returning to the sidelines for the Rams. He is reportedly the “focal point” of the Rams’ search, but for his part, Gruden claims that he isn’t interested in coaching right now.
“I’ve said it a million times. I’m very happy with what I’m doing. I have no intention of coaching,” Gruden said in an interview with ESPN Radio’s Mike & Mike (video link).
Gruden added that he still feels “close to the fire” as the color commentator for Monday Night Football. Of course, his comments should be taken with a grain of kosher salt. It’s hard to imagine that there isn’t a big part of Gruden that wants to try and win another Super Bowl. With the Rams, Gruden would have several intriguing pieces to work with, including running back Todd Gurley, No. 1 overall pick Jared Goff, defensive end Robert Quinn, and defensive tackle Aaron Donald.
If the Rams want to land Gruden, they may have to give him final say over personnel. Reportedly, Los Angeles is open to granting that power to their next head coach.
Darn…I would’ve loved getting him off MNF.
Who would you rather have doing color on MNF?
Charles Barkley
Awesome
He’s honestly the best thing going for MNF
Exactly….. I mute ” this guy”:) when watching! He will keep saying he’s not leaving so he can drive market up! Dude does know how to coach just needs an uber every now and then
You all are fools! Jon Gruden is the best nfl tv analysis and teamed up with Tirico they are the only two I don’t have to watch the game on mute. They are insightful and they actually talk positively and give credit where credit is due. If anything I’d start the petition to get Aikman and Buck off the air, anyone with me?
I definitely agree. Aikman and Buck are horrible. Always show favoritism
Tirico has been gone from MNF all year
If he doesn’t take this, he’s never going to come back. The rams would give him the world. I honestly believe he doesn’t want to coach again if he turns down the rams
