Raiders name Hue Jackson as Head Coach.

Read Time:52 Second

It took a year but Hue Jackson will finally eat the rest of Tom Cable’s lunch Tuesday. From ESPN:

The Oakland Raiders promoted offensive coordinator Hue Jackson to head coach on Monday after he helped the team more than double its scoring output in his first year with the franchise.

Jackson will be formally introduced at a news conference Tuesday — two weeks after the Raiders announced they were not picking up an option to keep coach Tom Cable.

*snip*

Jackson was widely considered the leading contender to get the job as soon as the Raiders announced Cable’s departure. This is Jackson’s first head coaching job at any level.

Jackson was hired a year ago to take over the play-calling duties from Cable and oversaw a transformation on offense. Oakland  scored more than twice as many points in 2010 as it did in ’09 — and the Raiders won eight games and avoid an eighth straight losing season.
Good Luck Hue. With that geriatric jackass still running the franchise, you are gonna need it.

I am a Chargers fan, so I don’t mind either, but it must bust the nads of raider fans and I am sure the NFL owners in general. He looks like he has been dead for decades doesn’t he? 😉

The geriatric jackass finds new ways to screw the Raiders, not that I mind, I’m a Chiefs fan.
