Re: Coaching Changes
 

[quote=Ruhskins;874621]They still won games. Our team has lost a lot of games that we "should've won" over the past couple of seasons. As I said, they have no future and will likely be a 2 or 3 win team over the next couple of seasons. But our team has been pretty mediocre and has made bad decisions over the past couple of seasons. Not horrible ones like that idiotic Palmer trade, but still bad moves.

I get it that the arrow may be pointing slightly up with our organization. But let's not act like we're the Packers or the Patriots, and pretend like we have been a much better organization that then Raiders.[/quote]


yeah Oakland is about to be really bad IMO, sucks for their fans

Re: Coaching Changes
 

I wonder if they can get some value for McFadden? When healthy, that dude is a beast. I am sure a lot of teams could use a player like that.

Re: Coaching Changes
 

Well many said CINCY was gonna be horrible so u just never know, coaching makes a huge difference but I just don't see it in OAK.

DMAC is never healthy I'd give no more than a 3rd

I think this was based on Dalton's play. I mean if they get a good coach in there, they have some talent. They would just need to get a decent o-line to protect Palmer. I think Oakland's defense is pretty good, but if they blow up the team that may be a different story.

Re: Coaching Changes
 

The raiders...the biggest headscratchers of a franchise. Just when things were looking good. They decide to rebuild. I thought Al Davis was dead.

Flaky Raiders are flaky.

Re: Coaching Changes
 

Pat Jones former Raiders assistant now a radio personality in OKC knows the team very well and was close to Al Davis up until he passed, he called this firing the day McKenzie was hired and he seems to think Oakland will completely clean house and hire Winston Moss right after the playoffs and could possibly go after Matt Flynn . Crazy stuff.

[quote=CrustyRedskin;874601]Funny if they would have beaten San Diego the would have made the playoffs. wow, but they did play dead kinda like the skins in the last week.[/quote]

Raiders lost 4 of their last 5 games this year. I think that is why Jackson is out...

I think Matty found the real reason.

Re: Coaching Changes
 

[quote=NC_Skins;874607]They have no 1st rounders for the next two years[/quote]This is news to the rest of us.

Oakland could be a playoff team next year, or they could be in contention for the first pick. It will be interesting to see what they do with the contracts of veterans like Seymour, Palmer, Carlisle, Curry, John Henderson, Kevin Boss, etc. In a true rebuild, they would get rid of most or all those guys. If they keep Seymour, Palmer, and Curry, it's likely going to be in an effort to compete.
