Hue has seen the last 2 head coaches file grievances against the owner, and Tom Cable was fired after leading the team to it's first non-losing season since 2002.
Exactly. Way to kill your coaching career before it even begins.

I actually like Hue Jackson. He seems to know what he is doing. I hope he does well.

“Two years was plenty,” Pagano told reporters in a story on the National Football Post.
Pagano extended his congratulations to Hue Jackson, with whom he worked on the Ravens staff, noting, “He will earn every cent they pay him. And that won’t be much.”

Oh hell no. I'm getting older, but I'm not going through THAT process. He looks like a goddamn gargoyle. I bet his hands are cold.

The NFL has ordered new Oakland Raiders head coach Hue Jackson to sever ties with a company that sells supplements and markets a product the company says contains IGF-1, a substance banned by the NFL and other major sports organizations, ThePostGame.com has learned.
Jackson, who was promoted from offensive coordinator by the Raiders on Tuesday, began endorsing a company called Sports With Alternatives To Steroids (S.W.A.T.S.) while he was an assistant with the Baltimore Ravens from 2008 to 2009. Jackson ended his association with the company this month.
One of the S.W.A.T.S. products, “The Ultimate Spray,” is labeled as containing deer antler velvet extract. On the company website, swatsteam.com, the spray is said to contain “very delicate and unique nutritional properties … such as IGF-1 and other growth factors.” IGF-1 is banned by the NFL.
S.W.A.T.S. owner Mitch Ross told ThePostGame.com he met Jackson at the NFL Combine in 2008 and forged a relationship. Ross said he supplied Jackson with free products, which he said were then distributed to players – including Ravens All-Pro linebacker Ray Lewis. Ross also said he gave the spray to Cincinnati Bengals safety Roy Williams and two assistant NFL coaches, Anthony Lynn of the New York Jets and Jay Hayes of the Bengals.
“In April of '08 I gave various alternatives to steroids, including spray, to Hue Jackson at the Ravens’ training camp,” Ross said. “I also gave the spray to Jay Hayes of the Bengals and Anthony Lynn of the Jets. I want to prove that my protocol reverses the aging process on aging athletes and promotes the healing of injuries in a legal manner.”
Reached by phone Wednesday, Jackson told ThePostGame.com, “I’m no longer affiliated with this company. I don’t even know about a banned substance.”
