Antonio Pierce is a throwback and for one game, he was what the Las Vegas Raiders need out of an interim head coach. Yet, playing inspired football and having conviction for the new man up top for one game is one thing. Sustaining that determination and drive going forward is a different thing altogether.
And thus, the Silver & Black have another opportunity to show its a different team under Pierce and under the primetime lights of Sunday night, no less, against the New York Jets.
Pierce, who is coming off a convincing 30-6 win over the New York Giants, made no bones about what he wants to see from his Raiders this coming Sunday.
