Sunday night, Oakland owner Al Davis declined to comment on Gruden. But he was the only Raider to do so. The trend continued Monday, though the answers sometimes changed.

"I know that's going to be a big topic of discussion and a big focus about Jon Gruden and us, but this game is not about Jon," quarterback Rich Gannon said Sunday. "It's about the Oakland Raiders and Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and that's really going to be our focus all week."

The situation turned out to be the main focus of the media on Day 1 of Super Bowl Week. And the question gave some Raiders a chance to change their tune.

They can say that all they want but you just know there's some extra motivation to play extra well in front of their ex-coach.
