[quote=DanKD post_id=1272039]They wanted to hire someone they never interviewed or had no link to whatsoever other than speculation?[/quote]Exactly, doesn't make sense unless there's some big story behind the scenes.

Plenty of room for skepticism here, but hey, at least the Carroll hire (hopefully) makes it less likely that the idiot buffoon owner will try to bring The Ride to Vegas.

The team, and Tom Brady, wanted Liam Coen to take the job, but he chose Jacksonville; and other than trying to stabilize the franchise, choosing Carroll doesn’t make much sense to anyone.”

Guy is probably a schmuck

Pauline on Las Vegas Raiders[/quote]Wonder if he would say this to Pete's face? Wonder if "all corners" he spoke with know anything about coaching football? What are they ridiculing? Lombardi trophy? Championship teams? W-L records? Ability to teach? Optimism? Just not understanding what people would "ridicule." Curious who he thought was actually available who would be a better choice than Pete. How long is that list?

The article goes on to have high praise for Spytek. So there's that.

How anyone with a functioning brain could look at the resumes and intro press conferences of Pete Carroll and Liam Coen and come away laughing at Pete and the Raiders is beyond me

I have not seen anyone laugh at the Pete hire. The Duuuuvaaal on the other hand.

Tom Brady is going to transform AOC into a starting QB behind a top 5 OL.. Pete Carroll and PG Wil do the rest. Fear not Raider Nation, Crosby is now more empowered than ever. Our D will rise with one more addition and all this misery and crying will end next year. We are due.
