Raiders hire Antonio Pierce as Head Coach

Yeah this seemed like a natural fit for the Raiders and since he had the buy in of the entire roster and they were actually winning some games down the stretch, you couldn't not do this.

This is not to say this couldn't completely backfire in a year or two, but for right now you kind of have to do this.

"Players who campaigned for Pierce soon are expected to be happy." I know Schefter and Rapoport both often like to add a small tidbit to their tweets when they break news, but that one just reads strangely to me.

On the move itself, the Raiders started playing much better once Pierce took over mid-season, very similar to when Bisaccia became the interim in 2021. At the time, I thought Bisaccia should have gotten the job heading into 2022 but they went outside the organization. For me, this feels like the right decision this time to remove the interim tag and make Pierce the full-time HC.
