Coach Jon Gruden on “Monday Night Football” : The New Yorker
A very interesting read, not just because of Gruden, but because he is written about at the time leading up to the Patriots vs. Chiefs MNF game so there are tidbits of interesting information about that game and the Patriots in general, and some interesting off-the-record commentary by Gruden:

Tom Brady? He’ll kill ya. If he catches you half asleep, he’ll punch you right in the face with the stretch—he’ll hand the ball to Woodhead, or Green-Ellis, or Ridley, or Faulk. Guys aren’t ready. They’re not ready. He’ll do it five plays in a row, on national TV, in front of the world. And he loves nothing more than humiliating you. Because I know this: he humiliated me. It’s a hell of a system they have, and he is the greatest trigger of our lifetime. Look at him! He’s snapping these plays off before the Jets are ready. You can be as multiple as you want on defense, but, when you play Tom Brady, he regulates you. He turns you into [whispered] trash.
