Report: Raiders interviewed Pep Hamilton on Sunday night

Posted by Mike Wilkening on January 5, 2015, 2:29 PM EST

It was truly a busy Sunday for Colts offensive coordinator Pep Hamilton.

After calling plays in the Colts’ 26-10 victory over the Bengals on Sunday afternoon, Hamilton interviewed with Raiders G.M. Reggie McKenzie for Oakland’s head coaching vacancy on Sunday night, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

The interview occurred in Indianapolis, per ESPN.

The 40-year-old Hamilton is in his second season as the Colts’ offensive coordinator. The Bills are reportedly also interested in interviewing Hamilton.

NFL clubs can interview assistants on wild card winning teams through the end of the divisional round, per league rules.

Supposedly Mike Holmgren turned down the Raiders job saying he would only go with the Niners, but they don't want him. :lol

Doug Marrone's reputation has taken a major hit publicly since he left Buffalo. And the barbs just keep on coming.

During a local ESPN radio interview Monday, former Syracuse assistant coach Bob Casullo called out Marrone as being "self-centered, selfish and greedy.''

"I've told you guys this all along,'' Casullo said, reiterating his dislike of Marrone. "When he takes a job, he already has his plan in place for his next job.''

On New Year's Eve, Marrone took advantage of a three-day opt-out clause in his contract with the Bills and left the organization after two seasons. He's emerged as one of the top head-coaching candidates and is considered a frontrunner to replace Rex Ryan as the Jets' coach.

But in the aftermath of Marrone's decision to leave the Bills, word of his controlling ways has filtered down from Central New York. And Casullo only added to that perception.

"It's coming out now, and I don't want to say I told you so,'' said Casullo, who also was the Jets' tight ends coach in 2004 during Marrone's stint as their offensive line coach. "I just sit here and mind my own business and move on.

" . . . He'll get a job because there's not enough qualified people with head-coaching experience to get these jobs. There are about nine or 10 guys out there that should be getting these jobs, and you're reshuffling an egomaniac, less-than-.500 coach.''

Casullo added that Cardinals defensive coordinator Todd Bowles, Seahawks defensive coordinator Dan Quinn, Lions defensive coordinator Teryl Austin and Bengals offensive coordinator Hue Jackson are "capable'' head-coaching candidates.

Casullo, 63, was an assistant coach with Marrone at Georgia Tech in the 1990s and the two later worked together at Syracuse. Marrone took over as head coach in 2009.

But a week before the team's final game of the 2010 season, he announced that he and Casullo had "decided it's in the best interest of the program to part ways.''

Marrone did not give a specific reason for Casullo's departure. And it doesn't appear as though any love is lost between the pair.

"Whoever gave him that three-day opt-out clause -- his agent is a genius and the person that signed it for the Buffalo Bills is a complete idiot,'' said Casullo, referring to the fact that Marrone will pocket $4 million from the Bills on top of the salary he'll receive from the next team that hires him.

Marrone, who was 25-25 for Syracuse, went 15-17 in two years with the Bills. Their 9-7 finish this past season was their best since 2004.

According to The Buffalo News, a few factors contributed to his decision to leave the Bills. The biggest one was the uncertainty surrounding the team's football operations with new owners Terry and Kim Pegula. But Marrone's relationship with the media also was a key issue. He reportedly was "upset'' with what he deemed "constant criticism and a general lack of support'' by local writers.

Report: Bears to interview Mike Shanahan when they hire a general manager

Posted by Josh Alper on January 6, 2015, 9:03 AM EST

Mike Shanahan interviewed for one of his old jobs when he spoke to the Raiders about their head coaching vacancy and he may also get a shot at taking a walk down memory lane in Chicago.

Ian Rapoport of NFL Media reports that the Bears are expected to interview Shanahan after they hire a general manager. There’s no word on when that will happen, although reported favorite Chris Ballard is interviewing with the team on Wednesday after passing up chances to interview for other openings recently.

Shanahan never coached the Bears, but he did coach Bears quarterback Jay Cutler in Denver when Cutler first hit the NFL. With Cutler’s contract difficult to trade and cutting him prohibitively expensive, it may be a plus for Shanahan that he’s worked with the quarterback (and wide receiver Brandon Marshall) in the past.

Shanahan is drawing a lot of other interest around the league, though, and he may get a chance to go somewhere where there isn’t quite so much toxicity in the relationship between quarterback and fan base.

Weird...he left the Raiders on bad terms, but that was with Al Davis.
Yeah, but he still says they owe him salary, and the team says he still owes them for a loan. I guess that could all be forgiven with Al gone, but it is weird.

Would be a solid hire for them. Lots of work to do on that defense though. Need a serious infusion of talent.
