00:00It's the Raiders.
00:01I mean, they let this guy, Pierce, have a press conference Monday, then they fire him
00:07the next day, and then they wait two more days and fire Telesco.
00:12Like, what a disastrous organization.
00:15The only thing they have going for them is that they have Tom Brady somehow tied to this
00:18organization because everyone else that's involved in it is a loser, including the owner.
00:24Let me explain to you kind of the way this should have been done, and let me take you
00:27inside the way these decisions are done.
00:29The way it should work with a winning organization is you fire the head coach the next morning
00:36after the last game.
00:37You get that over with.
00:38You don't let that head coach have his press conference, okay?
00:41The next day, Mark Davis fires Antonio Pierce.
00:45The Raiders told their local reporters they were told that Telesco would be back.
00:50On Thursday early afternoon, Telesco was let go.
00:55This is not the way that you handle your situation.
00:57That was just a really poor job by Mark Davis.
01:01The hope was that Tom Telesco would be able to hire his own general manager, excuse me,
01:04his own head coach.
01:05He's not going to get that chance.
01:07So now you've got vacancies there.
01:09As a matter of fact, Scott, we've got now six head coach openings and three general
01:13manager openings.
01:14And for a team like the Raiders, who's going to have a high draft pick, they need a quarterback.
01:19This is not a year to need a quarterback, Scott.
01:21There are only going to be two quarterbacks, I'm told, that are going to go in the first
01:23round.
01:24So once again, the Raiders are looking for a quarterback.
01:27They need a head coach.
01:28They need a general manager.
01:29I'm told by multiple people with the Raiders, you can expect Tom Brady to be heavily involved
01:32in this situation going forward.
01:35Mark Davis will lean on him.
01:36I know he's a minority owner.
01:37He's got a small piece of it.
01:40But Tom Brady wants to be involved.
01:42No, he's not going to pick anybody.
01:44But he's going to be involved as an advisor.
01:47I'm looking forward to see what happens here.
01:49If there's going to be any patriotized to this.
01:53Could Mike Vrabel get involved?
01:54We'll have to see it going forward here.
01:56Well, don't you think, Adam, with your expertise in this, is that, I mean, Mark Davis is screwed.
02:03The only thing he hasn't done wrong in his career since his father gave him the reins
02:08is that he moved the team to Las Vegas and made $6 billion.
02:11It was the only thing he's ever done right in his life.
02:14Since then, he has been one disastrous decision after the next.
02:17Why don't you just let Tom Brady make the decision of who the GM is?
02:22And then that man said would make the call on the coach.
02:27Mark Davis has to stop making decisions because he's a moron.
02:31Yeah, he has butchered this thing.
02:34Just the way this was handled is so poor.
02:37Mark Davis has been in the league long enough to handle the situation better.
02:40And the Raider fans deserve better.
02:42You and I were out there.
02:43They've got a great atmosphere, great stadium, really good fans.
02:47But they've got to rebuild this football team.
02:48This is a bad roster.
02:49Again, they don't have a quarterback.
02:52If you rank the best jobs from one to six, it's the Bears, the Jaguars, probably the
02:59Jets, although they don't have a quarterback for the future.
03:02Drake may, at least the Patriots have a quarterback, but that roster is terrible.
03:06The Saints don't have a future quarterback.
03:07Derek Carr's not the answer.
03:09Derek Carr's already said he's not taking a pay cut.
