I'm willing to give Gruden a chance and see what the team can do next year. But there is something to be said about chemistry. If he ends up bringing in guys like Darrel Russell and David Boston, then Lynch and Sapp can consider themselves lucky not to be here.

Is Sapp really on his way? The last I read I got the impression that his agent was anxiously trying to drum up a bidding war so Sapp could take something to the Bucs that they would have to improve upon. | Santa Sangre

Word going around is that Sapp's agent came out with his announcement the other day because no other teams were calling him about Warren.

Poor Warren. I guess you can be an asshole when you're good, but once you lose a step (or 12), you get dropped. I've always thought him to be a loudmouth, and the last two seasons he's been pretty overrated. Now maybe that's because of double teams, but this season, in the games I saw him in, he was being single teamed, and wasn't getting to QBs or RBs at all. Of course, his 16 (?) sack season was an amazing one. If only he had some staying power. | DrDirt

| #10 Posted on 12.3.04 1300.14 Reposted on: 12.3.11 1302.26 | I'm kind of hoping that the Panthers make a move here. We've only signed two new players and let a whole bunch of others walk. This is not what you do with a team that took you to the Super Bowl, especially when you have cap room. You don't tear it apart, you keep it together, and upgrade your friggin' weak spots!

Didn't the "whole core of the championship team" have a losing record and miss the playoffs last year?? | Broncolanche

Brad Johnson
You're not really making much sense. Brady has two SB's, Johnson has one. Brady has youth on his side, and a lot of hype. (Much of it deserved.) Both have similar games though. They throw a lot of high percentage passes and let the backs and receivers do the work. Neither one of them is particulary mobile, though Brady gets the edge there, mostly because of youth. Johnson HAD the bigger arm, and he may still, but Gruden's offense doesn't throw down the field much. | Jaguar
