Raiders hire former WR Danny Amendola as assistant coach

Assistant TO the coach.

Should be funny considering Amendola's previous comments on coaches: "None of those coaches threw any passes. None of those coaches caught any passes. None of those coaches made any tackles. They got guys in the right position because they watch a lot of film and spend all their time at the facility."

New England Raiders baby!!!

Another page out of Bill O’Brien’s playbook - bring in the slot WR Brady threw to (Wes Welker was a WR coach in Houston).

If the Raiders bring in Jack Easterby, we’ll have to attack swiftly and with no remorse.

My last dog I had before my current was named Danny Amendola as I adopted him as his third family on the day a mostly unknown Danny Amendola signed with his third team (Cowboys -> Eagles -> signed w/ Rams that day). Danny Amendola had a heck of a playoff run right after my dog passed in December 2017 winning five straight before the Nick Foles SB. As a Raider fan it makes me happy he starts his coaching career with us.

Not sure what's objectionable. His point was that the coaches help the players prepare, but it's the players who are the ones executing on the field.
