Maybe don’t trade AJ Brown for Traelon Burks, and don’t make a move thinking MayoMan is the Qb of the future
I can’t believe how many franchises seem to have incompetent owners at the moment. Legacy franchises like The Giants and The Bears. Then you have dipshits like woody Johnson, Khan, art blank and the lady in Nashville who are just dumber than a box of hair when it comes to running a team. the lunatic Panthers owner is flying up the rankings simply by shutting the fuck up and not spitting on fans or bullying restaurant owners
Pierce was bad but that's some bullshit to make him meet the media yesterday and wait another day. Are the Raiders going to be paying 4 head coaches next year? Or is Gruden finally off the books.
You can’t expect any good culture to come from the owners being too meddling, giving coaches bad rosters, and blaming them for not winning
Pierce probably sucks but it’s hilarious that you give him Desmond Ridder / Aiden OConnell and Minshew Mania and shocked he can’t win in a division with Herbert, Mahomes and Nix
Gruden resigned and settled for part of his remaining contract. He had $40 million left at the time he resigned. McDaniels and the GM they fired cost them ~$85 million Pierce is apparently bankrupt after investing in car dealerships and has $27.5 million in judgments against him so can’t imagine he’s getting too much of his buyout. Davis is a moron
It's the same as Mayo. Both of them were hired to be fired and it's embarrassing for the league. Yes, they sucked for reasons beyond their rosters being shit, but what did you expect when you hired two LB coaches? You're shocked that they're not good at game management skills from day one?
I’m really surprised the hire based on a childhood starter jacket, and December win in which you completed zero passes in the final three quarters wasn’t a sustainable model for the Raiders and Pierce.
It's funny to remember that one time when Jim Harbaugh basically placed ads in every media outlet in the country begging the Raiders to hire him in January of 22 and they wouldn't even call him back for an interview.
The Tweet says that Gruden resigned. Does he get paid still? Did they work out some settlement? How much money into profit margins would it take for an inherited owner to give a shit? Over under $75 million a year? Is there a better life possible than becoming an NFL Owner by inheritance? You get to lead a multi $ billion enterprise and it's not like peoples jobs are on the line based on your success because it's impossible to not be profitable.
Giants stumbled ass backwards into two titles because Eli turned into Joe Montana 2 postseasons and then just went into autopilot
Feels like the timing of these are connected. Leftwich and Hamilton are both out of the league, which I believe means they are allowed to meet in person instead of Zoom for their interview. A team must have 2 in-person interviews with non-team minority candidates to comply with the Rooney Rule. If that is what happened with those two jobbers, the Pats could hypothetically hire Vrabel by the end of the week, I think.
tom Coughlin had to lobby to keep his job after making the playoffs and now this mouth breathing jabroney Mara gets on camera saying they are going in the right direction but also saying he doesn’t think the roster is better than it was
"Our roster is dogshit. Our offensive Head Coach needs to give up play calling after taking over play calling because the offense sucked so bad the year prior. Our DC, who we just hired because the previous DC literally hated working for this coach tried to fight him once and quit, also is dogshit and he sucks. Our defense only had 45 sacks and 5 interceptions the entire year, which is weird because that number was put up every single practice I watched. Anyway, everyone keeps their jobs"
He’s got something wild like an 8-year show cause, so he won’t be coaching college football anytime soon.
and because the league stepped in and made wellington mara hire an actual football person to run operations. and he was a hundred times smarter than his dumb failson who won’t stay out of the way
I want someone to read this fucking article then give me some kind of logical reasoning as to why this asshole is still employed https://www.miamiherald.com/sports/spt-columns-blogs/barry-jackson/article297253644.html
It’s like Grier saw what the saints did every year and said hell yes brother that’s the way to go, fuck those cap numbers
Unless we tank and get rid of everyone right now this is only going to continue to get worse. This isn’t salvageable at all. There is no path forward for this franchise with Ross and Grier still in the building. We’re gonna be a bottom Feeder for a long time
