NFL News Raiders just fired Pierce

[Love The Drake]

More competition for Vrabel and maybe Johnson.
Patriots better have more options lined up.

 

[RobertWeathers]

Brady is still pissed at him for SB42.

 

[Pape]

Not surprising.

He got the bounce after replacing Josh, but thats about it. When coaches let the front office trade away pieces like they did with Adams, its a signal that whatever it is the current coaching staff is doing isn't working.

Can you imagine working for Mark Davis though?

How will anyone take up the raiders job they have no QB or cap space.

They have almost as much cap space as the Pats. If you look at it over the next 3 years they actually have more, I am pretty sure...

Would you want to work for a guy who looks like Mark Davis and truly believes his 20 something hot girlfriend was attracted to him before she knew he is a billionaire and just fell in love with his smile?

Wow. $112m. I didn't know that. They are set up nicely.

He at least he has a different haircut now.

You are right. My bad . And they have Wilkins, crossby and Brock Bowers. Maybe Sam darnold could reignite them. Now need a good OC coach. Maybe Aaron Glenn is a better fit for here or maybe even Brian Flores.

This is what I worry about... Brady luring Vrabel into the Raiders job. Pats don't really have a cap space advantage over LV but they do have a QB advantage. However, Vegas has a far better location (as far as players are concerned) and far better weather/taxes. And facilities too.

Ignorance truly is bliss

Most of these millionaires feel they have to stick their oar in it. Kraft has been just as bad.

I think Vrabes going to LV is a serious possibility.

The Brady stuff reminds me of how Michael Jordan was bringing stars to the Charlotte Bobcats. And he was majority owner…

They have some solid foundational players, a lot of cap space, good market to be in. On the downside, they have no QB and the type of roster that's probably going to push them out of contention for a draft solution. They seem pretty well set up for a new coach to come in, land a stop gap QB, get them to 9 or 10 wins in relatively short order and push for the playoffs, but then struggle to get to the next step from there unless a legit QB solution pops loose or forces his way there. Also up against it in a tough division with 3 teams that look to have good futures and QBs in place.

Most guys don’t get 3 shots at being a head coach. I wouldn’t waste my second without a QB.

With Pierce making it to Tuesday was starting to think they’d just keep Pierce for this year given it’ll be hard to attract a good candidate. Pierce could possibly get them to Arch Manning

 

[Sect140]

They hire Bill and Bill now works for Tom dotted line. LOL!!!! I am concerned that they are going after Vrabel.

 

[lancerman]

Might be a less attractive location than the Jets.

I don’t at all!

Brady isn’t running this franchise Mark Davis is and he is a clown. Don’t see Vrabel going to work for him. Reason it fell apart for Vrabel in Tennessee is mostly due to his relationship with the owner.
