00:00Pete Carroll was introduced today as the new Raiders head coach.

00:04Carroll has remained close with Russell Wilson, could reunite in Vegas, and I will tie that

00:13into Art Rooney II, who spoke today from the Steelers for his end of the season discussion,

00:21and he said the team will sign either Fields or Wilson, not both, and he wants it to be

00:26multi-year deal.

00:27He does not want guys, anybody on a one-year contract, either quarterback on a one-year

00:31deal.

00:32So tie those two things together, Scotty.

00:35Would you let Pete, please take Russ.

00:38You can have Russ out in Vegas.

00:39That's exactly what I want to happen.

00:42We saw him start fast and then crash and burn.

00:46He was terrible at the end.

00:49In December, he was even worse than terrible, and he's old and washed, and the young kid,

00:56Fields can break angles, and he has, I think, potentially a way higher upside for throwing.

01:04He was four and two throwing the ball, and he was running the ball and getting first

01:08downs left and right and third down precarious positions in the pocket.

01:11He gets out of there and creates.

01:13He's everything Hurts is.

01:15He's everything, frankly, Mahomes and Allen are when it comes to running the football.

01:20Let's just face facts.

01:22That's his best attribute, and Russell Wilson has none of that.

01:26When they talk about Russell Wilson's got this great arm, my ass, okay?

01:30Those days are over.

01:32His great arm is gone.

01:34That's done, and he's slower than a mule.

01:37Whenever he was in trouble in the pocket, he got sacked.

01:40Every single effing time, he got sacked, and then when he did run the ball against Baltimore,

01:44he ran it down to the five-yard line, and he got popped and fumbled.

01:47I've seen enough.

01:49You can have him with mayonnaise.

01:52See ya.

01:55There was also talk of coaching.

01:58It doesn't sound like there's going to be really any changes to the staff.

02:04He also was asked about Tomlin.

02:05When you look at how many games Mike has won in this league, you don't win that many games

02:09if you're not a good coach.

02:10I know he's frustrated like we all are in terms of not being able to take the next step.

02:14What we're going to do is raise the season ticket prices.

02:19They asked about Tomlin, if his message is still getting across.

02:24Art said, it's fair to question it after losing five in a row, but when I talk to the

02:28players, I think the players still want to play for Mike, and so I'm not concerned about

02:33his message.

02:34I didn't know Art talks to the players.

02:35How about that?

02:36Art's got a little sit-down with some of the players, too.

02:39Listen, let's just get real here for a second.

02:41I've been around the family since the beginning, since the Chief, and it has gone downhill

02:48real quick, down to this lawyer.

02:50Honestly, he's the son.

02:52He's like the red-headed stepchild.

02:54He's the one that never amounted to a hill of beans.

02:56They gave him the keys to the kingdom, and he's effed it all up.

03:00He doesn't know whether he's coming or going when it comes to football.

03:03He's the one son that couldn't get it done.

03:05You know what he is?

03:07He's Mark Davis without a cereal bowl haircut.
