I am such a sucker for the Raiders, but…

I really have high hopes about the coaching search THIS time.

And yes, I had high hopes last time.

And the time before that.

And the time before that.

And the time before that.

And the time before that.

  1. Pete and this one are the only like real “searches” we’ve done since Dennis Allen (and even that time we basically let ourselves get sold on him after one dinner). The JDR search was similarly shallow. Gruden, McDaniels, and AP were basically decided before those off-seasons even started.

  2. Jack and Gruden were the only ones that were exciting to me. The others I knew were horrible hires.

  3. breaking news: Michelada named new head coach 🏴‍☠️ Mendoza 🏴‍☠️

  4. I wanted Del Rio at the time. Didn’t want anything to do with the rest. For the record, I don’t want any of them back either.

  5. Yet people here will swear on their life that everything we do is perfect, media just hates us, blah blah blah

  6. This is the most comprehensive search we’ve had, and riddled with a bunch of guys that just got canned. I don’t think we’ve ever had this much favorability with the draft, cap space, and head coaching vacancy ever. And truth is, we won’t see those 3 things line up this remotely close for a long time. It’s kind of crazy. 

  7. Lol let’s try something new, whoever they pick they can’t fire for five fucking years. 🤣 Better make it a good choice

  8. Why do we need this post multiple times a day? Guess you don’t become a top 1% poster by posting quality.

  9. I’m more hopeful this time around because of the bigger pool of old and established coaches and young up and comers.

  10. Raiders literally always hire the worst coach possible. So I’m positive they’re going to hire Matt Nagy

  11. Just get some former Raider players in the front office and in the coaching staff and youll see the difference, people like Rich Gannon,Tim Brown,Charles Woodson,Derek Carr, …

  12. That’s the joy of being a fan.

    Every time we get to get our hopes up.

    This time at least we have a #1 pick to play with
