You are getting a man completely dedicated to his job. Sad losing him, but can only wish him well in his next endeavour. Same with Moss if he does get the head coach job. With Moss, the Raiders will be much more disciplined. That alone should be worth another 2 wins next year.

Great plan.

This guy better be a super hero because the way he’s starting off it’s going to take 3 years to go anywhere. In 3 years this team could have won a superbowl or at least had a good chance of getting there.

Next man up means Kevin Greene takes over his old role in Green Bay. That’ll be good to see, and follow him the next couple years.

My vote for the best hurricane linebacker ever would go to Winston Moss not Ray Lewis. Winston started four years including his true freshman year. he was part of Miami’s initial national championship team. never got into any trouble. Intelligent thoughtful and pleasant whenever I ran into him at the main campus. He also managed to graduate with a degree!

I have to assume that Reggie has a plan put together to get my Raiders back on track, and removing Hue was just one step, which is fine. I’m guessing Hue put it all on the Carson Palmer trade, which so far hasn’t exactly worked out.

Go Raiders.

The packers are all offense. These Raider moves all have a higher probability of backfiring rather than working out. From the press conference, Mckennzy does not seem a very good communicator.

Simply sounded like Reggie wanted his “own” Head Coach and lets be honest…Coach Jackson was (and always be) “Al Davis’ guy”.

He referred to Ron Wolf and Mike Holgrem’s relationship in Green Bay…No way he would ever feel that way with Hue.

In order for Mark Davis and Reggie McKenzine to guide the franchise THEIR way (not Al’s), Hue
had to go.

Interesting tidbit is that Reggie McKenzine will let his new Head Coach pick his own staff…Something Al Davis NEVER let happen towards the end!

Have needed a REAL GM for many years. Would like to see Saunders stay as OC and Spagnuolo, Del Rio, or Nolan as DC. Now let’s be smart in free agency and get value with what few draft picks we have. So many stupid personnel decisions have killed this team…hope to see that change! Go Reggie, Go Raiders!

The young WR (even DHB did fairly well) under Saunders.

Worries me that Winston Moss doesn’t have any experience as a Coordinator (ala Rahem Morris in TB).

Look at the Packers organization it great. I have faith in Mckenzie after all it was the advise of Madden who led him here. Go Raiders let’s get back to excellence.

Players like Huff & Wimbley & Routt and the rest of the overpaid players were lucky to get AL contracts.

A new GM is supposed to bring/hire his own coach. Why retain a guy that in response to blowing a division demanded more power? really Hue? Go get your nails done Hue.

A new GM is supposed to clean house of all the staff/coaches/players that hid under AL’s cloak for so long and got away with slouching contracts, players, penalties, no run D, nobody wanted to touch Oakland except for desperation of a job.

That all changed.

I’m not sure my boy Carson Palmer fits a west coast scheme if Moss hires one of those Packers offensive assistants. I think Jason Campbell would be a better fit. But we’ll see, Carson has talent and will get a full training camp to learn whatever offense. Hue did a great job giving the injuries and he barely got to use his best weapon Mcfadden. I hope the Bucs take a look at Hue. He’d help out Josh Freeman a lot.
