[QUOTE="sschind, post: 947419, member: 10247"] I know nothing about him or the Raiders ST performance with him at the helm or why the Raiders are moving on. I suspect them moving on has at least something to do with distancing themselves as much as possible from Mike Mayock and John Gruden as it does with performance. Firing coaches now tells any new GM candidate and coaching candidate they will have plenty of decision making power. So you think after the blocked FG Drayton was thinking "gee I wonder if I could get a second kick blocked in one game." I'm not saying he's a good coach but you make it sound as if he tried to get the kicks blocked. I think the players helped which can be partially placed on the coaches as well. I can't forget Shanahan saying he thought STs was one area where he felt he may have an advantage which was so telling given that SFs STs was not very good last year either. There are surely other factors than just the coordinator, but that was the worst ST performance I've ever seen. And the personnel is not close to being [I]that [/I]bad. I'm not so naïve to think a new coordinator will automatically solve all the problems but STs has been an issue for a while. I have no idea who would be a good candidate but it is clear that Drayton must go (even if he is a scapegoat) and I would be leery about promoting anyone he had a hand in hiring. Like I said in another post. Few fans have a clue when it comes to STs coaches. We just accept whoever they pick and make up our minds after we see the results. [/QUOTE]
