Raiders fans underestimated how bad Brennan Carroll's mess was in Las Vegas

The Las Vegas Raiders' issues were abundant during the 2025 NFL season, the most colossal of which was the play of the offensive line. Whereas several coaches got the ax mid-season for not meeting expectations, head coach Pete Carroll let his son, Brennan, run things into the ground.

Fans had apprehension about this hiring when it happened, as they feared nepotism had crept into the building in Las Vegas. Raider Nation held out hope that Brennan Carroll had actually earned his job, but it quickly became clear that it was given to him.

Jumbling the interior offensive line for no real reason was Brennan Carroll's first mistake, and as a result, fans got a gut feeling that something was wrong with the process in Las Vegas.
