    Fraley staying in Detroit

    I don't think Grubb was us settling, he 100 percent was our target and they went and got their guy.

    Could John join Pete?

    Seeing as the Raiders already have an GM, the answer is 100 percent... NO. Also, John Schneider seems to be eager to build a reputation separately from Pete Carroll. He looked giddy when he was handed the keys. This is all before we even consider the fact that John Schneider is still under...

    Fraley staying in Detroit

    Fraley wouldn't be handed the keys. MacDonald wanted to pair him with an experienced passing game coordinator and have them share the OC duties. He went a step beyond your normal passing game coordinator role. In addition to this you just had a QB that put together a bad year and you have an...

    Who will be the Raiders QB in 25'?

    I'm not sure either of these will be the case for the Raiders. Geno Smith isn't available and I don't think we're actively looking to move on from him. Wilson and Carroll have some bad blood between them. Carroll uncharacteristically took jabs and Wilson after we beat the Broncos. I do not...

    McCarthy?

    That is likely the problem. We still are not sure what we have in MacDonald exactly. it was a mixed bag, a lot of good but also some bad. He definitely had a lot of growing pains, especially in the mid part of the season. His staff is also equally as inexperienced, which I think ultimately lead...

    Schitty HC of Dallas

    I could actually see him being a better HC than OC. Everywhere Schottenheimer goes, players seem to stick up for the guy. He apparently runs a very tight ship as OC. He seems to be the go to for guys to go to set things on the right path. As an OC he isn't the best, but he wasn't bad either. He...

    McCarthy?

    Based on what I saw in Houston this year, please no.

    Should Geno join Pete in Vegas?

    I'm not so sure that they even look at Howell as a viable long term option. I look at it this way, Howell's contract is a rounding error on the spreadsheet. He's on a rookie deal and most experienced backups cost a lot of money. They did what is essentially trading down to pick up Howell -- I...

    McCarthy?

    Yeah, based who we've brought in and our previous hire (Grubb) he definitely seems to have a certain MO. He really seems to favor the guys with little to no coaching experience at their respective positions. What is even more perplexing is that all of these guys come from systems that are known...

    McCarthy?

    Not likely going to happen. Mike McCarthy has proven that he is willing to wait things out. While having experience is nice, having a SuperBowl winning HC that was relatively successful recently calling your plays potentially opens up a whole can of worms for MacDonald who is still trying to...

    Who will be the Raiders QB in 25'?

    Didn't Brady spend a crazy amount of money trying to keep himself healthy and in playing condition? I don't get the impression that the dude used botox.

    Five possible destinations for Geno Smith

    Jordan Babineaux is so far removed from the organization that he may as well be just another talking head. He hasn't been a Seahawk since 2010, I doubt he has a single clue as to what is going on. Right now there is no real reason to cut Geno. Even with his massive salary bump, Geno still isn't...

    Bobby Slowik

    I doubt McCarthy wants to be OC, he looks like a guy wanting another HC opportunity. He also wasn't fired from his job, he left on his own accord because he didn't like the terms being offered to him in Dallas.

    Pete is Coach of the Raiders!!!!

    Let me rephrase things, I don't think he'll have them on the right route given the way things went in Seattle over his last few years. His choice in coordinators as well as him turning the back on some of his core principals that he had when he first landed here is what lead to his decline here...

    The role for DK in 2025

    Hell, I'd say even the 5'10 Golden Tate was better at high pointing the ball than DK has been as a Seahawk. DK plays like a much smaller receiver.

    Pete is Coach of the Raiders!!!!

    Except Brady wasn't the one who hired him. Tom Brady only has a 5 percent stake in the organization. He certainly was at the table, but at the end of the day Davis still has all of the decision making powers. In addition to this, Brady has never been part of an FO in any official capacity. He...

    Should Geno join Pete in Vegas?

    He's only around a 10 percent owner if I remember correctly. He still has a say, but ultimately you're right, it is still the Davis show.

    Mistake by the Raiders.

    Schotty gotten second interview for Cowboy HC opening

    I could see Schottenheimer being a good HC. He's gotten the respect of a lot of players over the years, people seem to like playing for him for what it is worth. I could also see him being an absolute wreck though.

    Schotty gotten second interview for Cowboy HC opening

    They didn't fire McCarthy, he decided he didn't want to reup his contract and left. Jerry Jones was caught flat footed and there was a rumor that he wanted McCarthy to mentor Witten. Schottenheimer is most definitely a panic hire. What makes this good for Jerry is Schottenheimer has always been...
