Antonio Pierce is a realist.
The Las Vegas Raiders head coach may have lofty aspirations for his football team, but at the same time, Pierce isn’t spouting bombastic rhetoric when it comes to the offense.
“We’re probably not going to be, to be honest, a juggernaut offense,” Pierce told ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler earlier this month. “Would I love to be? Yeah. To sit here and say we’re going to score 30 points a game, that’s not realistic.”
With offensive coordinator Luke Getsy in his first year as the play caller along with newly minted starting quarterback Gardner Minshew in his first year with the Raiders and Getsy’s system, you get the gist of Pierce’s sentiment to ESPN.
