BloodyChamp Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 So no ownership stake? That makes me feel a little better for the Raiders and Gruden who I both like.

Coltsman1788 Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 Gruden doesn’t deserve an ownership stake in my opinion. Nothing special about him as a head coach. Plenty of more deserving head coaches never got part ownership. This will likely be problematic and come back to haunt the Raiders down the road when it’s comes time to get rid of this guy. Potentially very messy. Glad it’s not us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Girlzarefanstoo Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 What could POSSIBLY go wrong.... Couldn't happen to a better team, they're buying a fairy tale in my humble opinion. It's easy to sound "all wise" when it's just talk. Throw in real life with its injuries, arrests (we ARE TALKING about Raiders) and an out of control locker room. 3 years in I bet they have massive regrets. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

will426 Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 I think the offense will be top of the league but that defense regressed badly and I think it will suck once again..they were great in Carr’s breakout year..then this year Mack’s talking about he can get 30 sacks .

Qwiz Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 21 hours ago, Happy2BeHere said: Just shows why teams like the raiders and browns continue to suck and will likely to continue to suck. This is one of the lamest moves I believe in history of coaching hires. I'll even go as far as to hedge my bets that the raiders will never win a Super Bowl under Gruden. They were pretty darn good under Del Rio, barring this past season. They have a lot of talent and are picking high in the draft. Gruden may very well get one or two more rings working with Derek Carr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buck Showalter Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 Haven't seen this mentioned, so sorry if this has been discussed: But, with the talks of Gruden getting ownership stakes in the deal, has anyone wondered if the talks of Irsay meeting with Gruden last season were true??? I guess my thinking is that, obviously Gruden's "asking price" was pretty massive, & if he & Irsay were in fact in talks last off season, maybe that was the tipping point. Along with the rest of the deal... Anyways, just what came to mind when I heard of the deal... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RockThatBlue Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 What a stupid contract. I certainly hope that type of contract doesn't become popular in the NFL. I like Gruden btw, but if he is doing bad, I imagine this contract would make it nearly impossible to fire him. Terrible. He better win a Super Bowl or 2 for that deal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But by the intent of the rule... yes, they did. " The Raiders complied with the Rooney Rule earlier in the week by interviewing tight ends coach Bobby Johnson and an unidentified college coach. Gruden hiring expected to be announced no later than early next week. — Jim Trotter (@JimTrotter_NFL) January 5, 2018 " They spent $100 million on their coach, why not just go ahead and pay the $200 grand and bypass satisfying the Rooney Rule? That farce above is pitiful and while it does satisfy the letter of the Rooney Rule, it is completely amiss of the Spirit and Intent of it. It was a charade to get by without paying the fine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
