The Las Vegas Raiders have dived headfirst into the coaching candidate wilderness in the last week, as they fired Pete Carroll on Monday and are immediately seeking his replacement. The list of current candidates ranges from incredibly exciting to terribly mundane and underwhelming.
Seattle Seahawks offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak has been the frontrunner within Raider Nation, and the team recently requested to interview him. But Las Vegas is also interviewing Denver Broncos quarterbacks coach and passing game coordinator Davis Webb, who has quickly become a favorite.
Relatively boring candidates, who may just be interviewing so that Las Vegas can learn something about their AFC West foes, include Broncos defensive coordinator Vance Joseph and Kansas City Chiefs offensive coordinator Matt Nagy.
