Re: Raiders Hire Rathman as coach

I guess those that can't, teach...

Never was impressed with Rathman...he couldn't run worth crap...Was good at catching passes out of the backfield...once had 73 catches in a season...

But when you don't have great talent, I guess you learn a thing or two about playing the game...

Anyone see him being a better Running Back coach than player?

Cool Re: Raiders Hire Rathman as coach

Actually, he was pretty good as a goal line runner.

Re: Raiders Hire Rathman as coach

Who wants the Raiders job? After 1 season you get fired.....

I hope Rathman enjoys his position as he can, because knowing their management, he will be fired after the first year if they don't have a good season.

Re: Raiders Hire Rathman as coach

Don't they first need to get a RB that can be coached. I have never been a huge fan of Jordan

Yes he was...a good short distance runner...still I did not have a great all around skill set...which means he will probably be a better coach then player...cause he had to learn a few things in the process...
