agarcia34 Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 Bradley has never been a big blitzer. He did start to do it more this year with the Chargers. I would be shocked if it wasn’t Bradley at this point. Front 4 is lacking the personnel, but it will be a good FA class for edge rushers. So definitely can upgrade that position and that lack of talent easily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightmare Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 If it's Bradley, then Melvin Ingram must be in the mix as a FA signing. Seems like Chargers fans haven't been too enamored with his performances this season, but he'd still be an upgrade on what we have currently.

Humble_Beast Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 We should make a decision in the next week or two. Teams already picking up position coaches, don’t want to be left with less desired options. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaidersAreOne Posted January 10, 2021 Author Share Posted January 10, 2021 A Bradley hire would be an improvement but overall meh for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Humble_Beast Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 What you guys think about former Raider Winston Moss as LB coach? who are your favorites for DL, LB, DB coaches? Hopefully we sign 3 solid coaches with the DC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If no team hired you as DC, but you had several offers to coach DBs....what is your worth? Sounds like the NFL told him his "worth" is DB coach. RIchard... I have nothing against his actions. To each their own. But to me... you coach DBs, improve a unit and pad your resume to the next job. He was Seattle's DB coach when Sherman/Thomas/Cam all came in as young players and was a key part in developing the legion of boom. He was then the Seahawks DC for three seasons before moving on to Dallas. When he was in Dallas with Rod he was the defensive back coach/defensive play caller, so even though Rod was considered the coordinator, Richard was the one calling the plays. It was also his decision to move Byron Jones from FS to CB where he blossomed into a guy that then became the highest paid CB in NFL history. Dallas fired their entire coaching staff in early January and most teams already had their coaching staffs lined up or guys that got hired later already had the preferred coordinators they were going to bring with them. His resume speaks for itself. Quote Seattle Seahawks (2010) Assistant defensive backs coach Seattle Seahawks (2011) Cornerbacks coach Seattle Seahawks (2012–2014) Defensive backs coach Seattle Seahawks (2015–2017) Defensive coordinator Dallas Cowboys (2018–2019) Defensive backs coach, defensive play caller & passing game coordinator 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYRaider Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 @big_palooka Kris Richard's defenses as a DC/defensive play caller 2015: 17.3 ppg (1st), 291.5 ypg (2nd), 37 sacks, 23 takeaways 2016: 18.3 ppg (3rd), 318.6 ypg (5th), 42 sacks, 21 takeaways 2017: 20.8 ppg (13th), 323.1 ypg (11th), 39 sacks, 19 takeaways 2018: 20.3 ppg (6th), 329.2 ypg (7th), 39 sacks, 20 takeaways 2019: 20.1 ppg (11th), 327.0 ypg (9th), 39 sacks, 17 takeaways Seems to be a pretty good coach to me and also has a proven track record of helping young, under the radar players develop into All-Pros.

I saw a stat that the Chargers were 32nd in the league in blitz percentage. We know Bradley likes to create pressure with 4 and play zone coverage. Clearly that presents a problem with the Raiders personnel. 1. Rush a base 4 with no elite pass rush talent........ 2. Blitz less than any other team with guys like Abram, Morrow and Kwiatkoski who've shown they are very good blitzers......... 3. Play zone and off coverage with corners specifically drafted for press man coverage....... This sounds like a sure fire Raider DC hire, the fit is uncanny 🤔😁 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't matter if the good ole nepotism of the NFL say he ain't worth much. Don't matter what he has done I guess. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the last 15 years we have only had 1 defense that allowed less than 21 ppg. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agarcia34 Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 I would think by the end of the week we would see a hire. For the people who like Raheem. Whats the positives behind that? I like him and think he could do a good job. I like his ability to create blitzes, but his resume is not that great. Feel like he is the fan favorite, but his track record is nothing like Bradley or even Richards. Since 2015 he has jumped around from an defensive to offensive coach Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
