Part 1/8:
Analysis of the Raiders' Coaching Decisions
Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk discussed the timing of the firing of Antonio Pierce by the Las Vegas Raiders. While many expected immediate action following the regular season, the decision was delayed by one day. Florio attributed this to strategic planning, especially considering that teams cannot have face-to-face interviews with other team's coordinators until January 20. This allows the Raiders a crucial period to ensure that their approach is well thought out without the pressure of making a rushed decision.
