I think that it was evident that Tony was a bad fit for MNF or any football telecast. Instead of saying, you suck and you are fired, they gave him a way out. Nothing wrong with that, it saves a little dignity and allows him to stick with PTI without having to belittle him.

As for Gruden in the box, I think he'll add a little more football knowledge to the booth. However, after seeing him on the NFL Network, my opinion of him has gone down quite a bit. The same thing goes for Marshall Faulk in that both had pretty robust reputations as "football geniuses" and then when I hear them talk, I have my doubts.

For me, there are 3 guys that I like to hear talk football that are on the NFL Network and they are Solomon Wilcots, Rod Woodson, and Sterling Sharpe. The rest of their "analysts" are just guys to me looking for some pay checks now that they aren't in the league.
