Does Kingsbury have any ties to Dallas? If he does, that could make sense for him. And Jerry actually tends to hold on to his coaches for a long time. It would be another rivalry move like Johnson just did too which is always a bit fun.

Would be funny AF if the raiders just circled back and re-hired him to a bigger contract :D

Organization is a shitshow and bears fans assumed ben johnson(or any top candidate) would want them JUST because of brady.

Similar to the jags situation, their a shitshow too. Bears fans really think khan is a better owner than george, which he's not.

They are hiring Spytek.

No I'm not saying that it's just a debate on why I liked McCarthy a bit more then Monken and Johnson, that's all.. no different then liking Maye or JD more then CW and still talking about it.

I don't hate the BJ hire like I hated the Flus hire, just saying it's the riskiest out of the 3 guys I liked.
McCarthy certainly is safer given his previous HC experience but not sure I am buying Monken as safer.

He has more experience but the fact no one has ever made him a HC and he is about to be 59 suggests there is something NFL teams think he is missing.

So I would argue Johnson is safer because multiple NFL teams identified him as having HC potential at a much younger age.

He's been an NFL OC for 6 years.

Which sounds like either a piece of technology or apparel, but anywho....

Sounds like Elon Musks future satellite technology which replicates the movie "minority report"

Im guessing we aint too far off that technology.

Do you work for a friend? How many do? If you’re an NFL coach trying to get your second head coach gig, you’ve gotta be looking at the best opportunity for you to succeed not where a friend might have 10% ownership.
You said their connection was fictitious. I was just pointing out it isnt. They have been friends for over 20 years.

Totally worth risking your last shot at HC because brady owns a small part of a team.

/s

If i were him id go back to washington and be the top candidate next cycle vs take the table scraps

The Raiders arent really in a terrible position. Ours is just better. They have an elite Edge and the next great Tight End. They have 92 million in cap space and Fields potentially fits Kingsbury's O. Sign Fields and take one of the top WRs and that is a good start. Darnold is also an option. Point is they can outbid every team for whoever he deems as the top vet QB.

2 eelite players, one of which likely goes bye bye once his contract is done = NOT A BAD SITUATION

yea. Its pretty bad. Outside of brady they have the worst situation/roster in football.

Plenty of teams have cap space, that doesnt mean any player worth a damn will want to go there.

Elon isn't the person you should be watching on that. Keep your eyes on the CEO of Oracle. He's outspoken on wanting that shit.

Lol you dont know what Crosby will do and he had 2 years left so you can easily trade him for draft capital. They also have 92 million in cap space.

I easily take the Raiders over Jags, Saints and Jets. Saints are at -52m in cap space with no good answer at QB. Jets are at 20m with no good answer at QB and Jags are at 35m and potentially fucked becsuse they gave a mediocre QB a **** ton of money.

Raiders offer more of a chance to build with a ton more money and a trade chip if Crosby is unhappy.

I demand that if the Raiders keep Crosby, they trade for the Cardinals Dante Stills and draft WR Nick Nash.

Just because it would make that joke of an organization even funnier.

Slightly safer for Monken and that is based on his resume alone.

Johnson took over a multiple pro bowl QB and polished him up slightly. Monken has been the OC for completely different skillsets in his QBs with Jameis Winston, Ryan Fitzpatrick, Baker Mayfield, and Lamar Jackson, He has also been a HC for S Miss.

I like BJ, but Goff and CW are completely different in their skillsets, Can BJ adapt to the different skills and weaknesses of CW? hope so, but Monken has a resume of actually doing that. Can BJ handle being a HC? hope so, but Monken has experience (college level) of actually doing it.

On paper Monken looks way better. But you are correct there might be something with his personality that teams have kept away from him. who knows, but on paper he is the safer option. Time will tell

He is the Fangio of offense. Easiest way to put it.

Jackson is an MVP going back to his 2nd year. Mayfield and Winston are former No 1 like Goff so he has had talent to work with.

Seems NFL people view him like they view Fangio so yeah Johnson is much safer IMO but to each his own.

And Goff was a 4 year ~4000+ QB and 2 probowl appearances before as well.. also being former #1 is meaningless.. a good number of QBs turn into busts so where they where drafted has nothing to do with my point.

But Fitzpatrick had his best Yards per game, TD per game, 2nd best com%, Highest Rating under Monken. Now that was only 8 games, so maybe his stats could of came down a bit in a full season, but regardless Monken has a proven track record of working with different skillset QBs, while BJ does not. Again more of a risk with BJ like I said

Yeah if they get Brady I think it'll be good but what makes you think they'll land on him after this mess?


The Saints finalists feels like my personal nightmare, but this is all based off of vibes - they could be great.
Oh, nothing. It wasn't about Brady specifically. He was just an example. It was about how now that Baalke is gone the job is much more attractive and they could end up getting a good candidate because of the draft picks and roster pieces already there.

Basically the Jags just did a back flip into an empty swimming pool and broke a leg. However, somehow, now they're sitting in the ER next to the Swedish bikini team. Opportunity knocks.
