Things have gone awry for the Las Vegas Raiders. While they weren\u2019t expected to be a Super Bowl contender this season, many thought they\u2019d be better than 2-7.<\/p>\n
Head coach\u00a0Pete Carroll\u00a0has a long history of winning and usually does a great job of building a culture, but there seems to be a disconnect between the roster and the coaching staff. When the offense plays well, the defense fails, and when the defense shuts down an opponent, the offense can\u2019t do anything.<\/p>\n
There\u2019s something going on with the team that hasn\u2019t really been reported on, and defensive tackle\u00a0Adam Butler\u00a0made some comments that are stirring speculation.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s very frustrating sometimes, I can\u2019t lie, when the other side isn\u2019t delivering the way you think that they should deliver, and sometimes it\u2019s frustrating when we don\u2019t deliver how we should deliver,\u201d\u00a0Butler told reporters\u00a0on Tuesday.<\/p>\n
\u201cEverybody can see what\u2019s going on, we know what\u2019s going on and the only thing we can do is do our job. I just focus on doing my job and focusing on helping the team win.\u201d<\/p>\n
It\u2019s unclear what he means by \u201ceverybody can see what\u2019s going on.\u201d It\u2019s obvious that the team isn\u2019t very good, but it\u2019s possible that there\u2019s a lot more going on behind the scenes.<\/p>\n
Sometimes teams are just bad because they lack talent. The Raiders don\u2019t have an overly talented roster, so that\u2019s likely the biggest reason they aren\u2019t good, but Butler\u2019s comments suggest that there could be something else.<\/p>\n
The most obvious potential issue could be coaching. Offensive coordinator Chip Kelly has not done a good job this season, and players could be turning on him. He\u2019s paid a lot and isn\u2019t known to form great relationships with players.<\/p>\n
Some players could be fed up with the fact that he hasn\u2019t been held accountable for the Raiders\u2019 offensive woes. There could also be frustration that quarterback\u00a0Geno Smith\u00a0hasn\u2019t been benched despite his poor play. There are many reasons why Raiders players could be frustrated right now.<\/p>\n
Heading into the season, it seemed like a given that Carroll would at least get two of three years to turn the Raiders around, but the team wasn\u2019t expected to be this bad. It still might be too early to put Carroll on the hot seat, but it\u2019s definitely warming up.<\/p>\n
What\u2019s not going to help Carroll is that he\u2019s the reason why the team traded a third-round pick for Smith and gave him a big contract extension. The Raiders need to start showing signs of progress. Carroll is 74 years old, so he\u2019s not the kind of coach the team is going to want to be patient with.<\/p>\n
Carroll likely has enough juice to keep his job if the Raiders can win another two or three games, but Kelly is very much on the hot seat. The offense has to play better, or there\u2019s a chance he could get fired before the end of the season.<\/p>\n
Mike Tyson insists a severe case of foot fungus is “kicking his a***”.<\/strong><\/p>\n The former undisputed heavyweight champion had been suffering from the infection in silence, but opened up about his struggles during a Tuesday night taping of Jimmy Kimmel Live.<\/p>\n Kimmel picked up on the fact that Tyson never wears socks and so asked him why.<\/p>\n “I only used to [not wear socks] for fighting, where that was my image,” Tyson replied.<\/p>\n “It was real hardcore, no socks. Then I discovered I had a very disintegrating dose of foot fungus.<\/p>\n \u201cAnd it was really bad. It\u2019s still really bad now.\u201d<\/p>\n Kimmel then quipped: \u201cWould you say that foot fungus is your greatest opponent of all?\u201d<\/p>\n To which, Tyson joked: \u201cWell, I would have to say so because it\u2019s still kicking my a*** now.”<\/p>\n Foot fungus can traditionally be treated with creams, sprays and powders from a pharmacy.<\/p>\n However, Tyson insists he has tried these methods to no avail.<\/p>\n \u201cDesenex cannot help me,” added Tyson. “My toes look like they blew up.\u201d<\/p>\n During the final face-off for his comeback fight with Jake Paul last November,\u00a0Tyson slapped the YouTuber-turned-boxer after he stepped on his toes.<\/p>\n There appeared to be minimal contact from Paul, but Tyson’s latest admission explains why he flipped out.<\/p>\n \u201cI was in my socks and he had on shoes,\u201d Tyson told\u00a0The Post\u00a0moments after the weigh-in.\u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cHe stepped on my toe because he is a f****** a***hole. I wanted to think it happened by accident.<\/p>\n “But now I think it may have happened on purpose. I was in a lot of pain. I had to reciprocate.\u201d<\/p>\n Boxing fans had hoped that Tyson’s bout with Paul would be his last.<\/p>\n However, the 59-year-old has since\u00a0announced an upcoming exhibition bout with Floyd Mayweather.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Things have gone awry for the Las Vegas Raiders.
