Then again, he’s 35-44-1 in five seasons https://www.theredskinslockerroom.com/authentic-dwayne-haskins-jersey , and lost his only playoff game (which doesn’t make him unique in that franchise’s history). He also presided over a small-bore mutiny, cutting safety D.J. Swearinger late in the season after he disparaged the coaching staff. There was also the small matter of his quarterback position being a mess, after Alex Smith and Colt McCoy broke their legs.So when Gruden talked, he kept using phrases like “if I’m still here” or “once I get the word.”“If I’m fortunate enough to be here, I feel good about the nucleus of the players that we have,” Gruden said. “We have to adjust some things without a doubt; when you’re 7-9, with injuries or not, it’s not good enough for this franchise. I know Mr. Snyder demands greatness from his staff and his players, and we didn’t do enough this year Doug Williams Jersey , so we have to figure out ways to get better.

Antonio Brown, Jon Gruden, Paul Guenther, Vontaze Burfict Womens Dwayne Haskins Jersey , [Richie] Incognito … They’d be crazy not to go to Oakland.”Gruden is not the first to make that suggestion, but the Giants, 49ers and Lions could also be compelled to do the show.Gruden said that while it would “initially be a distraction” if his team was chosen, he believes they’d be able to make it work in a way that allows them to also accomplish their goals in training camp. He added that “they can do us next year,” which led a reporter to respond by saying that they can’t compel an appearance if Washington makes the playoffs.“If we don’t make the playoffs, I probably won’t be here anyway so …,” Gruden said, via NBC4 in Washington.It’s not clear when this year’s chosen team will be revealed.
