 An obscure rule won't be the thing that derails the Raiders' Super Bowl hopes this time!

All kidding aside, I'm trying to think of a better example of a team totally collapsing when the only big change was at head coach, but I'm coming up blank. 6-10 is bad, but uh I don't see another win on their schedule except maybe the Cardinals. And at least they look like they give a poo poo. As lovely as Hue Jackson was (very) he took over a team that was 3-13 AND went through a series of  MONEYBALL roster purges.

Far more likely you'll never see him post here again during the Gruden era

Jiminy Christmas! Shoes! posted:Ignoring the GM side of Gruden's work - would a "replacement level" NFL coach be doing any better with the Raiders roster? The Cowboys have kind of a weak roster in general and a questionable young QB and the definition of  coaching are 3-4 so I'm gonna say "obviously."

Did anybody think the Raiders needed to be burned to the ground and rebuilt from scratch before Gruden took over, though? The whole reason it was a desirable job in the first place was that they had already accumulated a decent amount of young talent that allegedly was just under-achieving because of the coaching. Then Gruden shows up and starts purging like it's Soviet Russia in 1937?

Kalli posted:It was slighlty flukey, but I mean they built a team in a fine way considering where they were, they drafted the most important positions and protected them with a bunch of overpaid free agents. They had a billion dollars in cap space and desperately needed to be respectable, that worked out fine. Yeah, 2016 was a case of everything breaking their way, but even so they were nowhere near being in a situation where everything was awful and had to be destroyed with fire. This wasn't like the Browns where everything outside Joe Thomas was either pig swill or a briefly amusing sideshow, like "Brian Hoyer 2 Andrew Hawkins and Miles Austin has temporarily become a thing... somehow."
