Rizzi can set himself apart from bottom tier candidates by beating Rams

I agree that the odds are against an interim coach succeeding long term but I don't think Pierce is a good comparison to Rizzi. Pierce didn't start coaching in the NFL in any capacity until 2022 as a linebackers coach. His experience before the NFL was running a national high school powerhouse into the ground, followed by getting ASU in trouble for recruiting violations. He was severely under-qualified for the Raiders job.
I'm speaking more about the decision to go with the interim coach without doing a thorough interview process because you think he can carry over into the new season.

I think the word we were sold was "continuity", let's have a real shakeup.
