AP got to be sweating bullets with all these coaches coming on the market
For me, it's Harbaugh or bust

Harbaugh ain't coming here with our QB situation
AP and Dodds or Kelly and let's roll

Brady just need to make the call to Harbs and see what he thinking. If he leaning towards the Chargers or someone, give the job to AP and bring in a quality OC
I wouldn't be mad at Vrabel either to be honest

He probably already did
we need to draft a QB 100% in the first round hope we move up
He just played for them, never on their staff, his coaching style is completely different. He's really not like them at all, but I understand anything New England related being hated lol
I don't understand the AP hype. I like AP and wouldn't be mad if he's the HC next year, but how good of a coach is he? He did a great job as the interim head coach and we couldn't have realistically asked for him to do much more considering the circumstances, but what exactly did he do that has people acting like he should get the automatic nod over someone like Harbaugh who has had success everywhere he has been?
Not trying to downplay what AP did for us, but is he really that nice or was he just fortunate enough to take over for someone so terrible at their job, that his 5-4 record looks better than what it really is? Are we sure they couldn't have pulled a name out of a hat and ended with similar results? Also, keep in mind that sticking with AP means we may potentially compete in an AFC West division that has Andy Reid, Sean Payton, and Harbaugh/Belichick. All proven coaches. Are we THAT confident in AP?
Again, I'm cool with AP being the HC if the organization/players really see something they believe stands out, but if we're just doing it cuz it's a "feel good story" or "it's the right thing to do" then imo, we're making a mistake.

AP earned the position.. he is a leader ...he gets his team to play tough football...he changed the identity of the team midstream.. with upgrades at OC and QB I can see the Raiders making the playoffs next year

He yells RAAAIDDERS in the locker room
He embodies the Raider way even though he never played for the Raiders
He’s brought the old Raiders swagger even though it’s won nothing since 1983
That’s all that I got

AP will only succeed if he has elite coordinators. Excellent leader and managing egos but we were amazing cuz def was otherworldly due to excellent DC. Oc was trash due to trash OC
