Warren Sapp blasts Monte Kiffin, Trent Dilfer in book

http://tracking.si.com/2012/05/29/warren...7&eref=sihp

Former NFL star Warren Sapp has always been a person who isn’t afraid to speak his mind. So when given the chance to write a book, fans should know what to expect.

The Tampa Bay Times reported that new Sapp’s 314-page book, Sapp Attack, goes on the offensive and attacks several former coaches and teammates.

Here is what he had to say about former defensive corridnator Monte Kiffin: “I always believed Kiffin (blitzed) so much because he wanted the glory; it made him feel like a great defensive coordinator.”

Sapp, who retired in 2007 and is now an analyst on the NFL Network, said that former coach “Tony Dungy put the damn cake in the oven, and then Jon Gruden came in and put the icing on it,” when referring to the success of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Bucs won the Super Bowl after the 2002 season, Gruden’s first season with the team after Dungy was fired.

Former quarterback Trent Dilfer got his share of criticism as well.

“Dilfer … basically was an interception waiting to happen,” Sapp wrote. “There were times we practically pleaded with him, ‘We know you’re not going to score a touchdown, but please, just don’t turn it over.”

No word on when the book will be released.

Don't care much for Sappy but Dilfer is one of my least favorite Browns of all time. I really do not like the guy at all.

Me either. His attitude towards anything Cleveland related is very poor. Guess it's because he lost his job to Charlie Frye of all people.

You left off the best part of the Dungy/Gruden quote:

"I always said that Tony Dungy put the damn cake in the oven, and then Jon Gruden came in and put the icing on it. Of course, Sam Wyche couldn't even get the mix out of the box."

I remember seeing Derek Anderson throw an almost int, an almost int, an interception and an almost int in succession. After the next posession of course.
I remember Brady Quinn doing something similar.
I didn't see it from Trent Dilfer.

Sapp is probably referring to Dilfers first three seasons.

Season 1: 1 TDs 6 Ints
Season 2: 4 TDs 18 Ints
Season 3: 12 TDs 19 Ints

After that he became a game manager.

I don't think we ever saw anything of note from Trent Dilfer.

Are we talking about the same Trent Dilfer that was not allowed to return to the Ravens after winning a Super Bowl......ENOUGH SAID.

"SPPPSSSTTTT!!!!" "HEY TRENT!" "I would be more upset with the Ravens over this then the Browns if I was you."
