Raiders Not Bringing Back OC Bill Musgrave

Recommended Posts

The Raiders are making a change at offensive coordinator after a season in which they had one of the league's best offenses.

Bill Musgrave is "not expected to return" to Oakland in 2017, NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported Tuesday. Musgrave's offense finished sixth in the NFL in total yards and seventh in points. The Raiders finished the 2016 regular season 12-4, with quarterback Derek Carr a front-running MVP candidate before he broke his leg in a win over the Colts on Dec. 24.

Can we fire Shula now?

....And yet we still have Shula. I'm just not fretting over it anymore. This franchise loves mediocrity and will continue to love it after Shula fields yet another mediocre offense to go along with our mediocre record next year while we waste away yet another year of Cam in his prime.

Not one person in this thread said to bring him here.

I never said they did. There was a clear insinuation that they fired some great OC in an effort to get better. He's been worse than Shula over his career.  Just recycled whining in a new format.

    • We’re in a pickle. My best hope is we protect him and can run the ball vs most Ds and the WRs are healthy so he has every chance to not look like what he looked like in too many games last year.   
    • I'm really not stressing about upgrading from Bryce. I'm frustrated with our inability (or refusal) to recognize overall bad QB performance and failure to seriously address the issue. QB is the most impactful position on the field, and we're not only settling for what we've been given to this point, but we've rewarded it with a fully guaranteed 5th year extension for a player that's never played 2 NFL franchise QB quality games back to back in 3 seasons. I can't understand how that's ok from a coach's or GM's viewpoint. Successful franchises don't do things like this. It just doesn't make sense.  We do not have a top half of the league QB right now. Since we don't have that player, we should be looking for him. Pickett isn't it. Grier isn't it. Bryce hasn't proven he is yet. Until you have that sure fire franchise QB, you keep looking. You're not consistently making the playoffs, a deep run, or a SB appearance without one.  What's the worst that could happen? We end up with 2 potential number 1 QBs? How horrible. 
    • Easy to understand Pickett, if this is anywhere close to on point. Canales wants to get as close to Bryce as he can- get the pace and timing in the throws as close a he can to Bryce. So the other players don’t have to adjust so much, to a new guy.       If Cam was the 1, he would look for a rocket arm.  But Bryce is the 1. Look for limited in the same way.  Low velocity, plenty of air under it, feels just like home when Picket comes in. And you have the guys on the second team not having such a radical adjustment (if they have to play) like with Dalton to Bryce.    Enter Grier. I guess we will collect those types.
