Raiders fired coach Hue Jackson.
We knew this was a realistic possibility once the Raiders brought in GM Reggie McKenzie, as Jackson was still fighting for more power with owner Mark Davis. Had Jackson made the playoffs and not ransacked the franchise's future for Carson Palmer, there's a good chance he'd still be in charge. Packers LBs coach Winston Moss and DBs coach Darren Perry have been mentioned as potential replacements. Fantasy-wise, the coaching change is bad news for Darren McFadden and the Oakland receivers, as Jackson maximized their talents with creative scheming and aggressive play-calling.

I get the sense that the Carson Palmer trade is why Hue got fired

I guess they wanted to keep Al's late senior years legacy intact.

Not sure what to think about this, this is all about new GM Reggie McKenzie taking over the team and bringing in his guys, Hue gave up way too much for Palmer

... But we would have finished better than 8-8 if McFadden(who was the leading rusher at the time) and Ford had not got injured

Its time to cut McFadden (Who cant stay healthy) and Sign Bush long term, I hope thats what happens

Patriots Broncos 35-23

People keep pointing out Tebow's completion %

It's like 10% lower than the other QB's, but for the amount of attempts, it's just 1 or 2 passes a game.

For the other QB's, 10% is like wasting one possession.

Tebow missed 11 passes. Brees missed 10 yet had 22 more attempts. Enough with the lame arguments.

Because Tebow doesn't throw often or consistently and relies too much on running and gimmicks, drive after drive gets stalled. Quality passing quarterbacks get into rythm extending drives, wearing out defenses, taking time off the clock etc. You can have sucessful drives and not score too you know.

Well at least they scheduled the game @ San Francisco early Saturday to minimize chances of a power outage.

QB FA
Drew Breese

RB
Ray Rice
Arian Foster
Michael Bush
Matt Forte
Marshawn Lynch

WR
Wes Welker
DeSean Jackson
Vincent Jackson

TE
Jermichael Finley
Fred Davis

On these game preview segments they always ask "whats the key to the game ?" or "what do they have to do to win the game?"

The easy answer is "score more points then the other team."

I didn't even know Brees was a free agent. I'm guessing there's literally no chance he leaves New Orleans though.

Worse case scenario he's franchised. He'll be a Saint until he retires.

All bolded won't be going anywhere. Be it either franchise tag or contract. Pack even said they would tag Finley. And Brees is UFA but his whole life is New Orleans now.
