Antonio Pierce, the interim head coach of the Las Vegas Raiders, has made some notable changes since taking over the team. He allowed practice squad players to be on the sidelines during games, a departure from the previous coach's policy. Pierce's decision was praised by the players, who believe in him and his leadership. He also drove a candy apple red 64 Chevy Impala to his first game as head coach. The Raiders won their first game under Pierce's leadership, and he is currently undefeated. However, there have been reports of tension between Pierce and former Patriots coach Josh McDaniels. Despite this, many believe that Pierce deserves to be the full-time head coach of the Raiders.
On the latest episode of his podcast, former NFL quarterback Tom Brady discussed the recent firing of Josh McDaniels as the Las Vegas Raiders head coach. https://t.co/P11vb92elc
