Choosing Oakland Raiders over Chicago Bears? Really, Hue Jackson?

First off, Hue, let's take a close look at the Oakland Raiders, a team that has not made the playoffs since 2002.

You have possibly the worst owner in the NFL. It's not just that Al Davis is infamously inept as a talent evaluator. He is straight-up cantankerous in his efforts to interfere with every facet of team management.

The team's head coach, Tom Cable, has about as much job security as Conan O'Brien circa mid-January. Oh yeah, he was also recently under investigation for punching and fracturing the jaw of assistant coach Randy Hanson.

And then there's the offense. You have a handful of no-name receivers including Davis' most recent apparent draft bust, Darrius Heyward-Bey.

You also have three running backs who have missed a ton of games over the last three seasons. And an offensive line headlined by yet other Raider first-round bust, Robert Gallery, who missed 10 games in 2009.

Not to mention, who can forget JaMarcus Russell? The man who was benched not once, or twice, but three times in just three seasons being in the league.

Names like Gradkowski, Frye, and Losman were apparently considered by the coaching staff to be better options than the former 2007 No. 1 overall pick.

For a prospective offensive coordinator, this situation seems like a perfect storm of incredibly difficult working conditions. The worst owner in sports, a head coach who might literally punch you in the mouth, and an offense littered with draft busts.

And yet, Hue Jackson decided this was still a better job than working with Lovie Smith, Jay Cutler, and the Chicago Bears.

It's officially time to panic.
