Exactly why he was hired. Someone eventually would accept the HC job after all their begging and pleading behind closed doors with all the candidates during the interview process.

He's young
Presided over the Saints' secondary, during their Superbowl run in '09
Coached every defensive position, except for linebacker
Presided over a unit allowing Tebow Time to happen.
Alfred Williams spoke highly of him (former Bronco/49er).

LULZ, the defensive coordinator on a Fox-coached team? Oh boy, Raiders are going to regret this one, they f**ked up, Jackson was being an ass, but damn.....what are they thinking?
