The more I think of Flores he's got Josh McDaniels vibes. I think he'd be a great DC, but as a HC? No again. Add ijn the lawsuit? This or needs less distractions, not more.

The more I think about it Stephanski makes the most sense. Hell, two-time Coach of the Year on the Browns? Only thing that would make it more impressive is if he did it with the Raiders.

That's my choice especially if he could bring Scwartz with him as DC

One thing is for certain. Every blog/post/insider is going to associate anyone who sniffed a fart from boy wonder as going to be in play for next HC.....

Let the process play out. Interview anyone and everyone....

Just nail this mother f[raiders_icon]cking hire. If not.....Time to snuff out the talk of Spy and Brady as the hope of the Nation.

Another thing for certain is whomever they hire, half this fan base will hate it and have will love it

I'm actually surprised how young he still is. Younger than Gruden, Harbaugh, Reid, and Payton.

And who could blame us?

With everyHC firing an excitement emits from the Nation that..... YES!...This time the brainless trust will finally deliver.....

Only to realize more misery and disgust.

But hey.....At least we got each other.

Stay well.

Drinks on me.

Urban couldn't handle the portal and NIL.....

What chance does he have in the NFL?

They'll sign him to an additional 4yr extension after he goes 9-8 the first season.

The very FIRST THING the Raiders HAVE TO DO is get rid of that f[raiders_icon]cking fake candle in Allegiant. Enough all ready with that bullshit, its at the same level as burying a football. Put up a statue of AD in the front of the stadium like ever other football org does, Halas in Chicago, Lombardi in Green Bay, etc. and call it a f[raiders_icon]cking day. Its embarrassing as f[raiders_icon]ck how stupid that fake candle is.

I was briefly excited when the Giants lost, but now that the coaching rumors have started I'm already filled with dread wondering who will ruin their reputation next.

He was putting Meyer’s name forward as a guy whose leadership skills, etc, didn’t translate to the NFL. Definitely wasn’t suggesting him as a possible hire.

Ahhh, ok. I thought it was sarcasm.

lol maybe they are trying to steal him for something other than HC, seems like a REACH.
