He struck me as a big talker but with little substance.

They went 8-8 geez. They were a second half collapse away from winning their division. He didn't even get a whole year with his biggest acquisition (Palmer). Even without Al Davis, the Raiders continue to befuddle . . .

Expect the JESTS to go after him. They reportedly wanted him as OC when Ryan got there.

Bad news for the AFCW. This could be a sign that there's competence in the Raiders organization again.

Except that they traded away their picks in the panic to sign Palmer and win now. Oops!

I don't think he was a great HC, but still, I don't think he deserved to be fired, not after one decent or mediocre season.

Reggie McKenzie is the new GM who is coming from the Packers. Seems like he is starting to put his stamp on the org.

The good news is, as you pointed out, the lack of draft picks. Also, the Raiders are looking at the second highest 2012 cap number in the league, so that should slow down any improvement.

The bad news is that there's a new sheriff in town, and that sheriff has the Ron Wolf seal of approval.

He's responsible for the Carson Palmer trade. He deserves to be tarred and feathered, nevermind just getting fired.
