Unfortunately this is something I have found myself thinking about just over half way through a season we had so much hope and optimism for going into the season both around the coaching staff and roster (one QB away -__-).
It is looking like with Scott Fidgeters terrible moves and Frank Reichs Pre-historic scheme that Tepper is going to Re-boot the front office and Head Coach.
My opinion:
HC - Ben Johnson
He denied interviews last year to finish what he started in Detroit and things are looking great for them - hopefully he is satisfied after this year and is ready to move on to put his mark on his own team. He has really creative plays and could see him actually utilizing the talents of our team rather than trying to jam a square into a round hole.
GM - Adam Peters
He is currently assistant GM on the 49ers who have consistently had a roster that is one of the most dominant in the league (even without having QB1) before that he was with the Broncos as their college scouting guru - would be great if we had a guy who could actually evaluate talent.
Anyone else that should be on our radar?
Doesn’t make a difference what the combo is if you don’t hire the GM first then let the GM hire his coach.
Also, if this is going to happen you have to ask…how much is Tepper willing to spend on buying the coaches and front office guys contracts. Raiders are out $76 million.
