What if they go Kubiak HC and Flores DC Lafleur OC, that would be too good to be true ?

It sucks for both parties that things worked out this way but it's for the best. The Raiders job needs someone with some serious chops. This is a major undertaking. On paper there are a lot of advantages. Young talent, cap space. But we are taking about an organizational culture that has been in the dumpster for a decades.

Hopefully Spytek is given the latitude to find his guy and not be countermanded by Davis's jock sniffing. The decisions that are made at this cross roads will make or break this team's future.

I like Pete, he will be getting a bust and a gold jacket but at this stage of his career this was bigger than him.

I can't say who the next coach should be but from a matter of experience the GM needs to take consul and hire his guy, his f[raiders_icon]cking guy.

I still think the Brady and Spytek combo is our best shot (brady representing typical owner onvolvement) with Davis out of football decision making completelym
Brady also didn't want Sam Darnold....guess he liked Geno Smith better.

I get him shying away from Darnold after the massive egg he layed in Minny, and it made sense to pair Geno with Pete. I don't think anyone thought that our line would be the worst in the league, or that Pete would refuse to bring up the rookies.

And yet it happened because of their choices.

Raiders defensive end Maxx Crosby addressed the move during the latest episode of the Let’s Go! podcast.

“I haven’t had time to really process it, to be honest,” Crosby told host Jim Gray. “I just found out. I’m here in the building and I literally see it pop up on the TV. So it was kind of gloomy, I would say. It’s something that I’ve been a part of before, but just to speak on Pete, this season didn’t go the way we expected it at all. From the players to the coaches, I don’t think anybody expected we would be in this position and getting the number one pick, to be honest.

“But I will say, you know, the one thing I did admire about Pete is he was, I mean, consistent as they come. He has won for such a long time. He is a Super Bowl champion. He won a national championship at USC. He has been an incredible coach, and he has had an incredible journey. So unfortunately this thing didn’t work out the way we expected it but he has done an incredible job and had an incredible career, and he was always awesome to me. Still gonna have that relationship regardless. Had a lot of coaches in my time to say the least, but all of those coaches, you take something from them, you learn something from them. And just we’re back to the process again and trying to figure out whatever that’s gonna be. I wish him the best. Like I said, he was always incredible to me and treated me amazing. Big shout out to Coach Pete and we’ll see what happens next.”
