3 years without a playoff appearance and the coach and GM should be toast IMO...you can completely blow up a roster and rebuild a team in 3 years.

Gruden made the playoffs last year, but they stumbled there at 9-7 and got owned at home in the playoffs.
Really he just had a good first year, with Tony Dungy's roster, and it's been downhill for the Bucs ever since.
That kind of shocked me too. Shanahan is well thought of in Denver, but they have floundered since Elway and I guess eventually all good things come to an end.
