Rumors fly of Brian Flores to Raiders, with Brian Daboll as OC

I wouldn’t mind this!
Daboll is a really good OC I can see him developing a young QB.

Rumors are rumors and they should be treated as such. Dont believe anything until something happens.
* Like Flores, Daboll has extensive experience with the Patriot Way.*
Can’t wait to hear “the Patriot way” all season… again. 💀🔫
Can’t worry about this rn, my giants are about to play
As long as Flores is actually on board with whoever the Raiders draft for QB instead of… whatever happened between him and Tua, I’d be pretty fine with this outcome.
More patriots retreads.
As long as Flores and Spy see eye to eye, it should be a good move.
If this happens at least Belichick can’t congratulate the wrong Brian again.
I really hate the idea of yet another attempt at being patriots west. That said, both these guys have had success outside of New England in ways that would help us. Flores has been the leagues best dc and I think he would make the most out of a thin roster on that side of the ball. Daboll has now overseen the breakout of two “project” QBs in Josh Allen and Jaxson Dart. So we could certainly do worse than them coming together here.
Lazy article
Flo wouldn’t be my first choice, I’m in the Kubiak camp … but ngl I wouldn’t hate this
Brian Flores is probably the worst coach to bring in for a young QB.
I would not be mad at this.
would absolutely LOVE this
The org seems to want to continue to knee itself in the nuts.

Might as well hire Schoen as GM
I honestly don’t hate the idea. Flores is a great defensive coach and Daboll had good offenses in New York.
Bucs fan here. I genuinely would love this for my team. I think Flores is the best defensive mind in the game currently. And you can do a lot worse than Daboll at OC especially if you have Flores there to rein him in. And Flores kind of feels like the perfect Raiders HC. At the very least you guys would know the team would be trying 100 percent every single game.
Give him Mendoza who’s a no nonsense just wants to play football QB and I can see the Raiders being that scrappy ass death by a thousand cuts, run the ball, play action, time of possession play defense team that will at the very least be a respectable franchise. Just my two cents, but this pairing would have me excited.

I mean last year it was a for sure they where getting Ben, so let’s wait a bit no?


throw shit at a wall till it sticks. If it is good shit it I’ll stick ! Just win, baby!
I dont care that he was “mean to Tua” he made a good defense out of a terrible one in a year with the vikings, I’d take a shot on him tbh.
