The failures of the short-lived Pete Carroll era for the Las Vegas Raiders have already been well-documented, and the NFLPA survey results are not doing last year’s coaching staff any favors.
ESPN’s Kalyn Kahler obtained the results, which were voted on by players on NFL rosters from Nov. 22 to Dec. 11, and the Raiders received mostly positive grades. Mark Davis/Tom Brady/Team Ownership received an A, general manager John Spytek received an A-, and all of the facilities received marks in the ‘As’.
However, Carroll and Co. didn’t fare so well, with the head coach leading the pack at a C+ and former offensive coordinator Chip Kelly getting an F.

So, outside of team travel and the coaching staff, the Raiders are sitting at about a 4.0. That’s pretty good, and the good news is last year’s crew is mostly gone. Now it’s up to Klint Kubiak’s staff to right the ship, and the Raiders could become a top organization in the league if he can get the franchise back on track.
