The fact that we lost to this Cardinals team by double digits AT HOME no less is more proof of just how awful of a coach Rhule was. He was totally outclassed and confused by the poo KINGSBURY was throwing at him. Unreal how truly hopeless that situation was.

I'm pretty sure every player on this team mailed it in until Fatt Fhule was fired.

With Matt Rhule and Urban Myer gone, Kingsbury is probably the worst coach in the NFL.  Of course, all three of them had one thing in common.  They were hired out of college with little or no NFL experience.  Hopefully, Tepper observes that next time he has to hire a new coach.  No college coaches unless they have significant NFL experience.

Nathaniel Hackett and Josh McDaniels would like a word with you

Raiders have gotten better over the season, at least until they ran into the Mayfield Buzzsaw.   And Hackett is in his first year.  

Kingsbury got fired from Texas Tech and as OC at USC, before being hired by Arizona, and has had one winning season as a head coach in his 7 seasons including College and Pros.  And he lost twice to Matt Rhule.

The owners doing that might be more likely than them banning turf 😐

The pro turf people were like "Arizona is grass!!!". It technically is but it's also on retractable wheels in the desert so not what one would consider "natural". It still has a base foundation of a very hard surface

Kingsbury was in the NFL for 5 seasons as a player. That's actually NFL experience. Way more than Matt Rhule and Urban Meyer combined.

Experience coaching and playing are two completely different things.  That being said, I agree it's still better than Rhule or Meyer.  On the other hand, Rhule and Meyer both won at the college level, Kingsbury did not.

I somewhat disagree. If you have played in the NFL, that will give you the necessary experience to see how to prepare properly and how to deal with NFL professionals. The rest is just coaching. You need to figure out how to be a good coach in general, regardless of level.

I think Kingsbury jumped too many levels to being a head coach(in college, much less to the NFL). He needs a long stint as an OC in the NFL and then maybe he might be worth trying at HC again.

Kingsbury does suck too, don't get me wrong. But McDaniels lost to Kingsbury after blowing a 20 point half time lead and a 16 point 4th quarter lead. McDaniels also has two other blown leads of 17 points, the 13 point lead with 3 minutes left against a bad Rams team that had a QB who knew 6 plays, and lost to a team that just hired an ESPN analyst as coach in his first game. Hackett is an offensive guy who might have the worst offense in the league with an HOF QB.

Hackett is very clearly the worst HC in the NFL. There really isn't a #2 that is close. The guy had to hire help within the first few weeks of the season to help with TO's and clock management. The he had to give up playcalling part of the way through the season, as well.

It is painfully obvious he is not at all prepared to be an NFL head coach. Kingsbury and McDaniels may just generally suck but Hackett actually has no business being a HC at all. He is making that very clear.

      He's not wrong though. You talk like a politician on here. Leaving yourself just enough wiggle room to say you never fully counted Bryce out if you need to....But we can all see it. Just say you think he is a bust outright and you will have to type a lot less. Obfuscating your opinion behind QB3 competitions etc....

      Experience with Electric Vehicles?

      By d-dave · Posted

      Most EVs are in the 90+ e-MPG meaning some measurement house somewhere compares the EV to a similar ICE model and works out how much is costs to charge (on average) versus fill up as a point of comparison. Talking long term, in the hundreds of thousands of miles?  No clue.  Some early signs are that EV batteries maintain 80% charge over 400k miles.  So there's that.   The challenge and charm of an ICE vehicle is being able to park it under a tree, get your jack stands out and tinker with your engine.  There's just not that same level of complexity in an EV.  I saw someone estimate there are 200 or so moving parts in an EV, and 2000 in an ICE vehicle.  I'm not a part counter so I can't really speak to that. I think that the EV is more the future than any type of combustion engine.  Those will still be around in specific purposes, but for most people - an EV will be the superior option in terms of efficiency.  I say that as someone who loves stupid horsepower numbers out of turbo 4 bangers and inline 6s...  I am one of those tinkers when I can be. A bigger issue for EVs is going to be the ownership versus lease.  Right now, there are INSANE leases on EVs, which is great, but what do you have at the end of that lease?  Nada, maybe some equity if you're lucky.  Where as I'm almost done paying for my car, and plan to keep it until the wheels fall off (or my son wrecks it when he starts to drive).  Will EV makers do the smartphone thing and build in planned obsolesce?  Stop updating software?  I love the tech in EVs, and I think getting more cars and trucks off the road is a good thing.  But I am still just a little concerned.  Capitalism has gotten far too extractive.
