Raiders fire OC Chip Kelly

Oh, I am not expecting any miracles where Geno is concerned. He is a steaming pile of excrement. But think we can all agree that our running game has largely been hamstrung by Kelly's game planning.

Jeanty has shown some flashes when there was a commitment to running inside.

It's good to see some of our off season "In Pc & Spytek I trust" come around to reality;)

Anyone who thinks CK was the problem is delusional. Pundits and Carrol aplogists may make him out to be a scapegoat, just like they are trying to make PG one, but it's laughable, and those that buy into the bullshit...again ...well no-one can help those but themselves.

I not really concerned with being right. I am comfortable enough in my own skin to not care if I am received as the dumbest person in the room. What I am concerned with is doing right. I have been optimistic for every coaching staff the Riders have ever assembled. It's the old adage of trusting someone until they prove you wrong.

You are adding 2 and 2 and getting 5. While this team has a myriad of issues, Chip Kelly was terrible.

And you would be batting a -100% average. You are not the dumbest by any stretch...you just haven't figured out you are betting a losing hand.

I just do not see any advantages to another coaching change, yet...

Pete has a solid track record and does not strike me as someone who has lost his edge. We all watch his pressers, he is still articulate and reasonable. If anything he has brought more credibility as a head coach since Mark pulled the pin on Gruden.

In my opinion the best case scenario would be for Pete to bring in a better offensive coordinator. A young one he can work with and allow succeed him. No one want's to come here which is why Pete was hired to begin with.

While I agree that you are what your record says you are a longer view needs to be applied when judging our head coach. Let's also not forget that our defense has been decent. Pete's expertise has always been on that side of the ball.

In my mind organizational dysfunction starting with the owner is the problem.

You have bigger issues. The Iron Bowl looks to be a near run thing.

I could buy into your misguided theory.... but for the fact Carrol by way of nepotism has sabotaged that theory you buy into.

Tell me why you think Carrol and his kids deserve another shot ...and continuity don't count because losing by losing sake is...losing.

I went to Bama & my kids went to Bama... my son just happened to be there when they won 4 National Championships in his 4 years, no one will ever be able to replicate that Toast...I repeat No one will ever repeat that, the fact that people don't understand the dominance of the SEC is mind boggling..no f[raiders_icon]cking way any of these other conference teams could survive a SEC schedule!!! We beat ourselves into submission then have to endure the Playoffs...wake up!

I am willing to pass judgement until the dust settles, but that's just me. I agree with you about the nepotism.

Big 10 teams won two of the last three FBS championships. Odds are Ohio State will repeat. The tide has been ebbing dude.

There in lays the problem, lifetime homers just can't f[raiders_icon]cking figure it out lol
