Del Rio: I don't see why the Raiders won't win the AFC West
http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com...-the-afc-west/
he last time the Raiders won the AFC West, it was at the end of the 2002 season, when Eminem’s “Lose Yourself” was the No. 1 song and The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers was the top movie at the box office. It’s been a long time. But new Raiders coach Jack Del Rio doesn’t see why the Raiders can’t win the AFC West this year. “Goal No. 1 is to win our division, and I don’t see why not,” Del Rio said in a video on the team’s website. Raiders offensive line coach Mike Tice added, “We’re going to be a championship football team.” In the time since their last playoff appearance, the Raiders have gone from Bill Callahan to Norv Turner to Art Shell to Lane Kiffin to Tom Cable to Hue Jackson to Dennis Allen to Tony Sparano as head coach. All those coaches arrived with optimism that they’d be the ones to win in Oakland. Maybe Del Rio will finally be the coach who can actually turn things around. |

If that's the case then that would be successful for the Raiders and Carr. What's DelRio supposed to say ?

Not only was Del Rio a horrible coach, he held Jacksonville hostage with his overpriced contract. Set them back 6 years.

It's hard to see anything with your head so far up your ass.

So far he is looking 'peter principled' at the DC position I agree with you, but Carr and Mack are good young stars to build under thus extending his HC time in Oakland to your point about his Jacksonville stint.

Carr to Cooper is not going to be fun to watch for the forseeable future, but they're still going to suck balls as a franchise.

Oakland can only get people like Del Rio to coach them, because nobody wants to work for that landfill of a franchise. It's career suicide.

Granted, "panning out" can mean something as bare minimum as David Garrard, but it still has to take place. Larry Fitzgerald's rage rape upon the NFL was largely tempered because he played with ****crap after Warner retired. And even before then, Matt Leinart wasn't exactly setting him off. |

Del Rio needs to be piss tested immediately.
