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.
