Pete Carroll is only in his first season with the Las Vegas Raiders, but given how poorly things have gone, it may be his last. The Raiders have stumbled to a 2-10 record, and with Carroll approaching 74, his long-term outlook with the franchise is uncertain.According to reports, minority owner Tom Brady is unhappy with the team’s performance. His growing influence in organizational decisions could put additional pressure on Carroll. Sources around the league indicate that Carroll may not even finish the season, with The Athletic’s Dianna Russini reporting that a “reset” could be coming.Russini also hinted that some of the frustration may be directed at Tom Brady, noting that people within the organization believed Brady would help attract a top-tier head coach or bring in elite talent."They landed instead on 74-year-old Pete Carroll, who brought along his sons Nate and Brennan, both offensive assistants," Russini wrote. "Players thought Brady would deliver Matthew Stafford after a long ski-slope conversation last offseason. He missed. Then Brady shot down Sam Darnold as an option. Another miss."Many around the league — and even some inside the building — are wondering if Carroll will survive this season. If the Raiders do move on from him, this isn’t a reset. It’s a reset on the reset. Tom Brady, the player, needed a little time to learn the job. Tom Brady, the owner, may require the same grace," she said.With five games left in his debut season in Las Vegas, Pete Carroll is sitting squarely on the Raiders’ hot seat, under growing pressure from all sides. How the team handles things once the season ends will be interesting to see.Pete Carroll admits he knew who would take the blame for the Raiders' strugglesThe Las Vegas Raiders’ season has effectively ended with five weeks still on the schedule in a deeply disappointing year. After the team's crushing loss to the Dallas Cowboys on Nov. 17, quarterback Geno Smith accepted blame for the team’s downfall, something Pete Carroll admitted he saw coming.Carroll, who reunited with Smith after their years together in Seattle, said he wasn’t shocked by the backlash Smith has received in Las Vegas and intends to support his quarterback through the storm."He's [Geno] been around long enough to know he's going to carry the burden and be the one everybody points the finger at… So I wanted to make sure and stay with him and hang through that. Get him back to his football and back where he could play really clean. And he really has turned the corner in that regard," Caroll said.The Raiders no longer have much to play for this season, so the focus has shifted to the future. Several veteran players, including Smith, now have to prove whether they should be part of the team’s plans going into next year.
