If he went to the Raiders, they would still suck and we would still demolish them.
This was honestly one of the worst case scenarios football wise.

Disagree.
The Faid get laughed at a lot, and I’ve joked about Gruden, but I will not be shocked if he has them competitive sooner than later. They were already starting to play better as the year wore on sans week 17.
I’m not saying they’re going to compete next year, I doubt that. But if they hit on those draft picks that they’ve got, it won’t take long to potentially pass Denver and ultimately LAC once Rivers calls it quits. A lot of that rides on their QB situation too of course but I do think they’ve got a chance and Hunt would have accelerated the process.
Whereas going to Cleveland is curious to me. Even if they get rid of Duke Johnson, this addition creates some questions within that locker room. What is Nick Chubb supposed to think about this? I’m sure there are some guys on that team thinking that they didn’t need to bring a guy in with so much baggage.
Cleveland and their first year HC have a TON of hype to live up to and I’m not sure that this move helped that at all.
