Hue will the the new OC by Monday.

The new HC in 2014

From one thread to another, it must be an involuntary reflex, you just can't stop from taking swipes at Rivera. Consider stopping, Chuckadamus, at least until the season starts.

Hue Jackson's offensive philosophy revolves around the power running game and a vertical passing attack.

I think there's a name for that approach

read a little bit about him in a surprisingly good article on bleacher report.

that last little bit is what i think will sell me the most. i think the style of offense fits who we are and have as a team. i like that he's aggressive, which is key for me. but this not accepting mediocrity, not feeling good about not reaching their goals of playoffs and winning the division...that's what i want more of. less silver lining crap. if you fail, own it and improve it. don't frikkin spin it to make yourself or the fans try to feel better about it.

right now i'd have to say that i like jackson more than norv. jackson seems hungrier. norv would just be a continuation of a culture of complacency that existed with fox and still exists with rivera.

if rivera were to fail next year, i think i would feel better about jackson as HC than a lot of other guys.

I wasn't sold on Hue Jackson but after reading that I'm pretty much sold. I gotta read up on other OC prospects suggesting by Mr. Scot

I didn't get the joke...can you explain to some of the not as savvy football fans? Is that approach the Air Coryell?

[sml1950]

It's good to see a coach who has done essentially everything on the offensive side, take a step back and learn how the defensive side is trying to stop the offense. This can give him new insight into what keys they are using to defeat certain plays. When he gets back on the offensive side, he should have a better understanding in designing plays to defeat the defense.

Yes.

Yep. It's the core philosophy of the Coryell offense.

It's more about blocking scheme. Our designed runs (and some option runs) used Coryell power run blocking schemes.

Sorry for over reacting....you guys know football. Time for me to call up Google.

I'm all for Hue as an OC. As a HC, no way. Hue loves himself some Hue wayyyy too much to be a HC.

[BEASTfromdaEAST]

I no if we hire Hue our O-line is gunna have to get a lot meaner and just better for him to work out. Other then the question of how he would utilize Cam I am also iffy on how Olsen is gunna fit into this mix considering he just came off his best year.

[dpanther69]

Well he can't seem to keep a job for over a year. Anyone know why that is?

Because the Raiders are stupid he had the Raiders trending up when he was their coach and the new GM chose his man to replace him and they became the sorry ass Raiders that we know today.
