Blame it on Carson Palmer. If that debacle worked out he'd be called a genius.

 

I'm sure that arbitrarily declaring that he was going to run the entire organization didn't help his cause

he took some if the (at the time) credit for that awful trade for carson palmer. he should be fired after that. he mortgaged their future and it failed.

From the article: 7 coaches in 10 years. Just when you think we've got it bad.....

 

Paying a half dozen guys as head coach at any given time when you fire them like that! You know, unless you have a press conference to announce your not paying them, complete with overhead projector.

Don't forget the bandaids for your untreated and probably cancerous forehead moles.

Just because the now-departed Al Davis fired a lot of coaches in the recent past, that shouldn't preclude Reggie McKenzie from building the organization the way he wants. If Jackson isn't McKenzie's guy, then there's no reason for him to stay aboard as the head coach. BTW, Jackson has no one to blame but himself after that horrific Palmer trade.

That "aplmer" trade might end up being the best thing they did. yes tis true that it didn't work out this year, but let's face it, there was a lot of rust on ole Palmer, but he still has what it takes to be a winner in ths league, IMO. Next year will be a different story for Oakland.

 

I'd take Hue as our OC any day..

Palmer has been mediocre since 2007. His numbers this past season were basically identical to the ones he has put up over the last half decade, so you can't blame rust. He's an average QB.

The Raiders finally have a real GM, and soon will have a real coach and will no longer be a laughing stock.

 

You are now witnessing, like Irsay to Irsay, a Davis to Davis change in ownership philosophy that will lead to success in Oakland.

 

Meanwhile, we are still waiting...

Exactly. I have heard all these "business as usual" comments about the Raiders. Things like "everyone thought it would change now that Al Davis is gone". Hiring Hugh Jackson was an Al Davis decision!. NOW is the beginning of the new way.

 

Just when you think the Raiders might change.

They just did! they got rid of Al Davis's last coaching hire.

So are they

Wouldn't mind Hue coming in to fill an offensive coach position here in Bflo. Has NFL experience as an OC, RB, QB, WR coach and the offenses he's worked on have had success. We've got at least 2 offensive openings and I see no reason not to bring him in for an interview.

Carson Palmer was not the issue. CP will be ok when he gets an Off season under his belt. In fact he performed much better than Fitz in the same number of games. The problem was that the Raiders were just a very ill-disciplined bunch...They had the highest number of penalties...that explains the lack of focus starting from the HC...And no one could control the temper of Seymour.
