Who cares what was behind Herrera’s firing the bottom line is that A hole is gone! Thank goodness! No more diapers to change and chins to wipe so he became even more useless. Herrera couldn’t be reached for comment, oh man is that just perfect or what. See ya!

My post above is not meant to infer that I don’t like the Dennis Allen hire. I do. Absolutely behind it, I just didn’t hate Hue.

May I ask, if Hue did get an OC gig somewhere does that take the Raiders off the hook for the 2 mill. they owe him?

I was wondering if that had anything to do with him not getting a shot as an asst. anywhere else.

I’m thinking the Raiders would still have to pay him, but just curious.

I have a ?,

IF Hue “had to go” becuz the Raiders failed to live up to expectations then that is saying that in Mark’s (or whomever’s) opinion, the Raiders had a good enuff team to make the playoffs and win the west; and possibly go deep in the playoffs.

Ok. Then why do we need to “blow up” the team that supposedly was good enuff to do these great things that Hue was not able to get the most out of.

On the other hand, if this team is so awful that it needs to be “rebuilt” and “blown up” etc. then actually Hue did a pretty darn good job of coaching by getting a team that needs to be “re-built” and “blown up” to an 8-8 record.

Which is it?

I guess Kawakami could walk the raiders hallways again without threat f John jumping him.

Yet another embarrassment has been erased from the organization. Addition by subtraction.

Thank you to whoever made this move.

A total clean up and rebuild job is under way. Got to believe that whomever is advising Mark Davis, could be both Madden and Wolf, said clean it up boy. Herrera, was old school Raider Nation, groomed by Al Davis for over 40 years. Just think about that for a minute, through thick and thin I am sure, from gopher and errand boy, to senior mouth piece and enforcer. Heck, I am sure many of us here wouldn’t mind taking a few shots at Kakawami and the rest of the cess pool of “reporters” in the Bay Area, who have trashed the Raiders at will since the return of the team to OakTown. Too bad is Herrera that goes and not the cess pool.

But, if the clean up is under way, why sign Packer trash?
Can’t understand this Underwood move. I thought RegMac was serious about changing the old attitude and getting rid of our own trash. Maybe RegMac needed a gopher.
