    I know news and hyperbole go hand and hand, but the raiders have been more of an embarrassment than this. Mark Davis haircut is on the list, but previous raiders teams have been disastrous.

    HBO decides at the last minute to make one more season of the hit series Succession. In season 5 there is an interesting plot twist, the Roy children are shocked to learn they have an illegitimate brother named Mark Davis-Roy who wears a bowl haircut and is actually even more of a fucked up loser than they are.

    Same thing as the broncos 2009 and 2010

    Fuck Josh McDaniels it’s unbelievable that he made that same mistakes 12 years after the first stint he had in Denver

    He may have set back the franchise the same way he set the broncos back in 2010

    He did the same to the Broncos but at least we got Von Miller, Demaryius Thomas, and Eric Decker out of it.

      Number of times a player was lost to a team as the result of a fax mishap:

      Josh McDaniels: 0
      Denver Broncos: 1

      Possibly the only metric McDaniels is ahead of the Broncos on

    Going to be a spicy job for someone to take. Still have Adams and Jacobs. Will be able to draft a QB too.

      Honestly, though: is it really? In the last 20 years, from purely a team management perspective, is there any debate that the Raiders have been one of worst 5 teams in the league? Consistently, for two decades?

      If YOU were an up-and-coming OC or DC on a winning, playoff-competitive team (because that’s, by and large, who is interviewing for HC jobs), would YOU trust your future to this team ownership? Is there literally ANYTHING that this team has consistently done well (again, from a management perspective) that would suggest to you that going there would be a WISE decision for you?

      In the last 20 years, what has been the BEST outcome for ANY Raiders HC, in terms of both on-field and off-field outcomes? Is there ANY former Raiders HC who is currently an HC in the NFL? Currently even an OC/DC?

      Raiders FANS are fantastic. (In general…) They’ve put up with more outright abuse and neglect from their team than just about anyone over the last 20 years. But the C suite of that team is about as radioactive as any franchise in the league, and there’s no reason to think that’s going to change.

    To be fair, the raiders have been an embarrassment for 20 years…though this somehow takes the cake honestly.
