On Headline Sports with Charlie O:

#1 Las Vegas Raiders head coach Antonio Pierce will be staying on for the 2024 season. Pierce led the Raiders went 5-4 as interim coach taking over for Josh McDaniels who was fired as head coach.

#2 What was impressive of the job that Pierce did was some of the wins he had the most memorable was the win over the Los Angeles Chargers 63-21 on Dec 14th. The Raiders also went onto beat the Kansas City Chiefs the following week and won their last game of the season defeating the Denver Broncos. There is little doubt that the players not only like coach Pierce but requested that he come back. They’re thankful that owner Mark Davis obliged.

#3 Dallas Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy is not expected to get a contract extension after the Cowboys had a huge let down in their playoff game against the Green Bay Packers on Sun Dec 14 in Dallas. Jones is still considering the extension but it’s been reported as being unlikely. The Cowboys were 67-42 in the regular season but are only 1-3 in post season under McCarthy.

#4 Bill Belichick has met with the Atlanta Falcons brass twice. The Falcons fired coach Arthur Smith after three seasons at the helm on Jan 8th. Belichick reportedly has only interviewed with the Falcons and no other NFL teams. Belichick coached the New England Patriots for 24 seasons and led them to six Super Bowl titles.

#5 The Philadelphia Eagles Jason Kelce said that when the time comes to retire he will do it formerly and not after an emotional game. Kelce 36, was one of the best NFL centers and selected to the Pro Bowl six times. How will his retirement impact the Eagles?
