Who’s their starting QB going to be?

Nice

It’s possible he’s a shitty HC but very good coordinator. The Raiders coaching staff is shaping up to be their best in a very long time……on paper anyway.

Deshaun Watson.

Carroll will want someone with good hand off skills

His star has dimmed but I do feel like Kelly earned his way to better opportunities. He stood out for his offense at New Hampshire. He wasn't one of these charmed coaches who got an NFL job because of his daddy.

Things are really coming together for The Raydahhs. Henry Ruggs will be out soon and runs killer routes!

Maybe he learned after being gone for nearly a decade but he flopped the last time because he had no counter after NFL Defenses figured out what he was doing.

Not concerned in the slightest about them making that hire.

All the easy wins we had in the division for the last *checks notes * 9 straight years and counting are gonna be a bit harder in the coming years. But as long as we have Mahomes and Andy they will each celebrate an occasional lucky regular season win like it is the actual Super Bowl. But it’s just gonna be a battle over 2-4. How many coaches has Andy and his staff, and Patrick gotten fired in the division? I think the AFCE had lots of coaching turnovers during the Pats 2 dynasty runs.

Thank God the Bills ownership are loyal to the detriment of their team. I hope Beane and McD stay for the duration of Mahomes career. In all actually, McD should have been fired for his awful decisions at the end of 13 seconds. Those mistakes (along with playing against the best offensive coach and quarterback combination ever)costed his team
A shot at the AFCCG even though chances are the Bengals beat them anyway. The Bills coaches will never be able to Pat and Andy in a win or go home, high pressure game. McD doesn’t have that killer instinct, and is more prone to making the wrong play call, than making the right one in that situation. He will never outcoach Andy when it matters. And tbh that’s a big reason why we’re so successful now. There’s no coaches that can outcoach Andy, Spags, and all the positional coaches in a one off. They’ll never have a quarterback who can go toe to toe with the best to ever do it unless he’s having an off day, and even then I bet he still pulls it together to break some hearts at the end. What other quarterbacks in the league would you feel totally comfortable with giving the ball to with a minute remaining with a trip to the SB on the line? Nobody is close. Same with Spags.

Of course your not worried. You're about to possibly 3peet and have Mahomes at QB.

The Raiders need a miracle to knock him off the hill and Pete/Chip are a good start for that team.

Wasn’t his big thing like he was going to run 4 plays, but do it really fast?

I mean. Maybe he grew up a little, but that’s what it was at Oregon.

In an era of increased environmental awareness, it's nice to see that the Raiders have embraced recycling.

Gotta say this is the most impressive and productive offseason for you guys in a very long time. Mark has been absolutely clueless since he took over the team. Having someone with a ridiculous amount of football knowledge like Brady being a partial owner, and him being in Marks ear about how to better run the team is going to help a lot IMO. Currently aside from being in Vegas, there’s no real draw to coach for the Raiders. Especially given their coaching history. They have been a dumpster fire for a long time. I think the Pete hire is big for you guys. He’s an actual NFL coach with a ring to go with it. He will get the team more disciplined than they have been in years, and I believe when his contract runs out, the Raiders will be a much better option, with a stronger roster in 3 years when Pete’s contract is up. And at that point will be a better option to draw a good coach to lead them out of the darkness.


That said, there’s division is loaded as far as coaches go. It’s still the Chiefs division to lose until the Mahomes era comes to an end. But making the playoffs as a wild card is a billion times better than what’s been happening with the organization for a long time.

FTR

He has never had the same success he did in Oregon

As a Raider fan for so long including the great Madden days, I’m exhausted. I have no idea how this plays out.

He was great at Oregon, not great at Philly, who knows? Now Greg Olsen is in the mix and he is similar I. That he is horrible as a coordinator but has been a very good QB coach if I recall correctly.

They are paying him 6 million!

This division is going all in to beat the Chiefs, I've honestly never seen anything like it. I'm not sure there's ever been a more established group of coaches joining a division in such a short time as what we've seen in the West.

Just another example of how the league being rigged for KC such bullshit. The Pats got 6 guaranteed wins a year in their cream puff division during their run, we actually have to work for our division wins, and it's only getting tougher.
