I hope “assistant” in this case means person in control of calling timeouts and replay challenges,

Hue Jackson, “a role model”?

The man is a turd, much like Michael Lombardi, neither man are wanted anywhere but where they are.

He’s a turd that fits in perfectly with that disgrace of a franchise, the Bungholes.

Good for Hue. As great of a coach as he is, he’s probably best not in front of the media. As soon as he threw the Raiders under the bus during that press conference I knew he was as good as gone. Which was too bad because it seemed like the offense was flourishing under him. But I’d rather have McKenzie wipe out the cancer than have Hue reinforce the stagnant Raider mentality. Also, if you think giving up a first and second round pick for a 32 year old overpaid QB (especially with last years draft class) was a good trade I’m glad you’re not the GM.

I’m pulling for this guy too. Seems like a good role model for other coaches and players.

Kindof a shame he was used a s Rooney Rule pawn – he’s much more qualified than say, Rex Ryan.

As a diehard raider fan, it killed me to see Hue make such strides in Oakland, and then get fired because McKenzie wanted a priest walking the sideline on Sundays. Hue is fiery and has a brilliant mind. He got the most out of his players. IMO, Hue was an upgrade away at defensive coordinator from getting the Raiders to make serious noise. I liked the Palmer trade. While the price was steep, it took balls to make and Palmer just came off of a 4000 yd 22td-11int season. Plenty of teams would take that. Oakland was on the cusp with him. Since the move to Allen, the team is in full rebuild mode and it is doubtful whether Mark Davis will exude the kind of patience that Al never did in the face of failure. My guess is McKenzie and Allen are both on a short leash this season.

good for Hue…bittersweet although, he is still stuck in Cincy. He should be an OC somewhere.

I liked his offense when he was with Oakland. It was definitely better than Knapp’s. Hope he gets another shot somewhere.

Love Hue, man.

Hopefully his title in 2014 is Head Coach of the Oakland Raiders.

In lieu of salary the Bengals offered him the title of Omnipotent Emperor, but Hue was satisfied with what he had.

Marvin is under contract through 2014. Mike Brown honors his contracts. And whose season came to an abrupt end? Lol

Only when he achieves the title of Director of Greatest Trades in the NFL, should the Bengal fans be worried. He is an excellent offensive mind.

Of course he has a new title… 1 coach is cheaper than 2.

Marvin Lewis will be fired after another abrupt January ending.

Jackson is being set up for a fall. If the Bagels’ offense improves in 2013, all the credit will go to squeaky-clean, my-brother-used-to-be-somebody-important-so-never-mind-my-lack-of-accomplishment-I-get-a-free-pass Jay Gruden. If not, all the “assistant head coach” and “special assistant to the head coach” types will take the rap, including Hue.

Hue Jackson is a great coach, made Ocho and Housh relevant when he was their WR coach, if you doubt me how’d they do when they left cincy? Also my guess is Marvin is prepping Hue to be next OC for when Jay leaves after next season for a head coaching position some where.
