I do, however, wonder how much of the problem with the failure to rack up more than one Super Bowl can be traced to Bill Polian's abject failure to provide him a quality lineup.
Draft after draft was wasted on nonentities like Quinn Pitcock, Ben Hartsock and Gilbert Gardner. In 14 years of drafting, he managed to pick exactly a dozen guys who ever made a pro bowl, and those include Marcus Washington, Cato June and Bertrand Berry.
Free Agency yielded nothing.

Gruden gets way too much credit for that Super Bowl. In fact he doesn't win that SB without knowing the Raiders offense better than they did. Give Dungy Tom Moore as his OC in Tampa Bay, and I'll bet he wins a SB.
After that SB season Gruden pretty much ran that franchise into the ground.
