Raiders To Interview Broncos Coordinators McCoy & Allen For Head Coaching Position

I think it’s really important for this coaching staff to have one more year together and get one real offseason together with the players.

If Allen went to the Raiders, I would be pissed.

If Allen leaves Denver, then I say we make a run at bringing Mike Nolan back to Denver. With the coaching staff dissolved in Miami, he is on the market. His defense was every bit as good as Allen’s has been this year, with even less talent.

New Oakland GM, McKenzie looks like he is going to pick off the Green Bay coaching tree. Packers assistant coaches Winston Moss, Joe Philbin, Dom Capers and Tom Clements all have been targeted. So i think(hope) that they’re just doing their due diligence

Now if Allen blows them away…things could change. They can have McCoy for all i care

Career suicide.

Thats a lot of thinking going on. Through all of our 1 and done DCs, we always had an offensive minded HC and with Fox we now have a defensive coach who has the capability of hiring another competent defensive coordinator. Losing McCoy without hiring a stud OC may prove to be more costly than losing Allen since there will be more of a void to fill on the offensive side of the ball.

If anything the guys seem to love playing for him and he is brilliant…I hope he commits to being in Denver for the long haul and eventually becomes our head coach. He’s young and passionate and is defensive minded…as for OC, I would let McCoy have one more season and try to build the offense even more suited to Tebow…and draft a backup QB who plays like Tebow (an option guy who can throw) so we don’t lose a step if Tebow goes down…

And draft DEFENSE, DEFENSE DEFENSE….MLB, CB, DT, then RT RB WR OL

The Raiders have 3, count ‘em, 3 draft picks in 2012. Please make a note of it. Also, you will be marked a traitor. Thanks.
PS: If you’re just doing this to get some inside dope on how Raiders org is functioning these days, then I’m all for it.

be a sobering note to any fans who think he’s an idiotic OC who held Tebow back. Sorry, but he must have impressed at least some people this year with the creative work he did with a young group.

is NOT what the NFL feels about Mike McCoy. Maybe there are problems other than Mike McCoy. Perhaps the change in offense to fit Tebow caught some eyes of other teams. The problem may have been in the execution of the offensive plan NOT the plan or play calling. What a nove idea! Maybe it was the players that didn’t execute? (reads the QB that still has some improvements to work on)

What’s up with everyone bashing McCoy? I for one want him back next year. He, like the rest of the team, showed a lot of promise while making some mistakes in the process. I saw some play calls that I hated…“Once more into the pile boys! Same call three downs in a row! CHARGE!!!” I also saw some great playcalling with TERRIBLE execution by our team (missed open receivers, dropped balls, wrong routes, etc). Then there were great plays that were executed perfectly. I like that he is down on the field and not up in the booth like some OC’s too…he stays in touch with Tebow, McGahee, and the receivers. I think they have strong relationships that the Broncos can build on next year. Continuity guys…don’t underestimate it.

if at all. Sticking with the option runs until halftime was a prime example. We ran better out of the Pro set, but he insisted on rehashing the option runs over and over. Predictability is the other issue he has.

That said, he gets a pass from me. If he gets a better job, I won’t be crushed, but he has growing to do just like the rest of this young team.

I hope DA stays, and we build a nasty D for him to coach.
