"Arrr! Pete Carroll be takin' the helm o' the Raiders ship, say the scallywags!"

Arrr, me hearties! Word from the seven seas be that the Las Vegas Raiders be settlin' their sails with the seasoned captain Pete Carroll to steer their ship as head coach! Aye, let’s hope he won’t make 'em walk the plank too often!
Ahoy, me hearties! It seems the scallywags of the Las Vegas Raiders be swappin’ out their captain once more, hoisting the flag for the venerable Pete Carroll to take the helm! Aye, they tossed aside the ill-fated Antonio Pierce after a season of misfortune, arrr, with a record that be more a shipwreck than a triumph.After givin' ol' Josh McDaniels the boot, they made Pierce interim captain, and his crew scuttled to a 5-4 record. But alas! The stormy seas of the 2023 season left 'em at a dismal 4-13, and Pierce be walkin’ the plank after just one voyage without the interim title. With the winds of change blowin’, the Raiders also cast out their general manager, Tom Telesco, quicker than ye can say “pirate booty.”
Now, Carroll, that seasoned sea dog of coaching, be takin’ a three-year treasure map with an option for a fourth. At nearly 74, he’s seen many a rough tide, leadin’ the Seahawks to glory and plundering national championships at USC. He be the fourth head coach for the Raiders since the dawn of the new decade, joinin' a motley crew of coaches past. So, hoist the sails and set course for new adventures, Raiders, for the winds of fortune be awaitin’!
