N/S Raiders are hiring Pete Carroll as their new head coach (11 Viewers)

Hopefully with the GM that will give him what he needs to build a team and stay out of the way maybe he builds a respectable team pretty quickly!

one thing is a FACT. If MM was the head coach, Zack Baun, CJGJ, Hendrixson, Krull, would all be current Saints. Mike adjusts his scheme to the player not the player to the set-in-stone, scheme. So he'll draft pretty much BPA on every pick, then adjust his scheme to fit them.

Agreed. The FO is going through the process while MM is developing a plan and organizing his staff. He's also going to bring in his culture guys, all HCs do. I'd be curious what FAs are out there with ties to MM. One name to watch is Noah Brown who was developed under MM in Dallas. He's currently on Washington's IR, but he's a FA after the season. He's a Big X WR who does all the dirty work, but he very well could be a MM culture guy. His experience with Houston last year and Washington this year is a bonus.

that's very interesting, i cant wait until the search is final so we can all move onto other topics like players and staff. I've said this before, but i for sure think Mike starts Carr in 25. I think whoever coach we'd get, starts Carr in 25.

He will be the 13th HC in the past 20 years for the Raiders.

Our next head coach will be our 13th HC for the entire Saints history!

if Sean Payton left this year, and we still had a legit QB1, id be ok with Brady. @Rouxble ive been waiting for you to comment about that article that shows our cap space in 2026 at 60mill under. Suprised this isnt a huge thing. It means we;'re out of cap hell now!

Saints $52M over cap for 2025, set for major relief in 2026

By Ross Jackson It would not be an NFL offseason without a story about how far the New Orleans Saints are over the salary cap. However, this year, things are a little different. While the Saints are currently projected to be more than $52 million over the limits for 2025, the light is visible at

Well, it’s obvious that whoever becomes our HC, he will be given a grace period. I’m almost positive that his performance will depend on our results, after the said HC gets his QB

Good hire for LV.
I don't see it as a long term venture but something that is more transitional. Carroll can come in and establish a culture along with constructing a solid roster.

They saw what Dan Quinn did in Washington and they were like "yeah, we want some of that. Let's call the OG." lol. This is 100% culture change and roster building. If they don't trade up, they will probably go for BPA at #6 (if Carter foolishly drops to 6, I see Pete Caroll taking wanting him) and build the trenches and defense, like he did in Seattle.

A real possibility we could see a Russell Wilson and Pete Carroll reunion in Vegas

I think the way they ended probably kills this. With the focus looking like changing the culture, I don't know if Pete Carroll brings in Russ to do that.
