And it's Peters that got the job.  It'll be interesting to see if he gives Wilks a 2nd chance at a HC job.  Or because of his other connections (49ers and Kubiak), beats the Titans to the punch and hires Slowik.

Raiders defensive end Maxx Crosby endorsed hiring interim head coach Antonio Pierce on a full-time basis near the end of the regular season and he did the same in a social media post on Friday, but that might not be the end of his push.

NFL Media reports that Crosby is expected to explore a trade request if the Raiders opt to hire someone other than Pierce. That report is part of a larger report about Michigan head coach Jim Harbaugh’s potential return to the NFL because the Raiders “continue to weigh” a pursuit of their former quarterbacks coach.

Exploring a trade request isn’t the same as demanding a trade or vowing to hold out if Pierce is not retained, but it does send another clear message about what one of the team’s best players wants to see happen in the coming weeks.

Crosby is basically telling ownership that the locker room wants Pierce.

When the Raiders fired Gruden, Rich Basaccia rallied that team and had them working as a unit. They should have hired him as their head coach. 

History is repeating itself and Mark Davis should listen to his team this time.

If they want to stick with pierce do they still have to interview another minority?
