Dear Todd,
When you stepped into the Oakland Raiders‘ Offensive Coordinator role after the team let your predecessor’s contact expire, so many of us had such high hopes for you.
Coming in, you vowed to add a few new wrinkles to Bill Musgrave‘s system, make it more modern, faster paced, and even more explosive and potent than it had been in 2016. You really had all of us buzzing and flying high, Todd.
Given that the Raiders had the sixth-ranked offense in the league last year – and having added weapons like Cordarrelle Patterson, Jared Cook, and Marshawn Lynch – you had the Raider Nation frothing at the mouth in ways it hadn’t been since the Rich Gannon era.
