Nightmarish Scenario? 😱 Why Bringing Back Pete Carroll Would Be a Disaster

The Las Vegas Raiders are at a crossroads. After a surprisingly competitive showing against the Houston Texans, the "Silver and Black" faithful are left wondering: Is this progress, or a trap?.

In this Christmas week edition, Scott Gulbransen and Moe Moten break down why the Raiders must resist the urge to "run it back" with Pete Carroll and Geno Smith, even if they win out against the Giants and Chiefs. We dive into the "Raider Purgatory" and why a total organizational reset—with a young, offensive-minded coach and a new franchise QB—is the only way forward.

Inside this episode:

🏈 Ashton Jeanty’s Breakout: Why the rookie star is officially back in the OROY conversation after a 188-yard performance.

🛑 The Pete Carroll Problem: Why "optimism" isn't enough to save a coaching staff that many fans feel has been deceptive about player development.

🚑 The Continuity Trap: A powerful caller from Chicago explains why "living with the problem" is a recipe for disaster.

🔮 2026 Outlook: A look at the brutal schedule ahead and why Tom Brady’s increased role in the building could change everything.
