Goopster24 Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 I just finished reading a pretty good book called "Bloody Sundays" by Mike Freeman. This book was written I believe on the heels of Gruden's Super Bowl Victory. In the book, Freeman calls Gruden "the most feared and respected coach in the game today" and he puts him ahead of such names as Billicheck (sorry about spelling), Parcells, Cowhler, etc. Who does everyone think is "the most feared and respected coach in the game today"? Homers, let's be a little realistic. I'll give my opinion after I see a few. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

piratesownninjas Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 Feared and respected by HIS players- ParcellsFeared and respected by the NFL- Belichick 910220[/snapback] Antonio Bryant didnt respect or fear him last year when he threw his jersey in Parcells face... I still say Gruden. Give it two seasons, and everyone will be back on his bandwagon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yo mama Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 Antonio Bryant didnt respect or fear him last year when he threw his jersey in Parcells face... 910412[/snapback] Yeah, that sure served Bryant well. Now he's a Brown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notamomo Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 Yeah, that sure served Bryant well. Now he's a Brown. 910425[/snapback] Yeah, and the cowboys receivers are Keyshawn (5.2 in the 40) and Fairy Glenn. Anyway, how can the answer be anyone but Bellichik? The Pats make sideline adjustments while their opponents are still running plays off the script. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

piratesownninjas Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 (edited) Yeah, that sure served Bryant well. Now he's a Brown. 910425[/snapback] Yeah, bash the browns... But the bottom line is they now have the right regime in place, Gm and coach... Give them two more years in the off season and drafts, and the browns will be returned to the glory days. And if I remember correctly, Parcells had Bryant on the team for a month or so after that happened... blah to Parcells.

My point was that Bryant got himself a one way ticket out of town with that move, is all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of things can change in 3 years, Bellichick hands down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pedroz13 Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 Its gotta be Mike Tice. Hard to say that with a straight face, sorry. But seriously folks...I would have to say maybe Cowher. His teams seem to be prepared for every game and HIT HARD, all the time. I know Billick, Belichick are getting a lot of nods on this post, so I wanted to bring someone new to the table.

Selly Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 Most Respected: Belichek for his current success, Gibbs for his career success Most Feared for his coaching prowness: I'll say Belichek for now, but we'll see how he does without his 2 shadows this season. Most Feared Physically: Cowher, do you really want to get in the way of that chin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
