Klint Kubiak is officially the Raiders’ head coach — but what does his offense actually look like from a defender’s perspective?
In this episode of the Silver & Black Sports Network Podcast, Jesse Merrick is joined by former Raiders linebacker Kirk Morrison to break down what it’s really like trying to stop the Shanahan/Kubiak scheme.
Kirk faced Gary Kubiak and Mike Shanahan’s outside zone attack during his playing days — so he knows firsthand why this scheme gives defenses problems.
We dive into how Klint Kubiak’s offense stresses linebackers, dictates terms to a defense, and creates advantages in both the run and pass game.
Then we connect the dots to the Raiders roster — and what this system means for the perceived top pick, Fernando Mendoza, Ashton Jeanty, JPJ, and the rest of the offensive line room.
This is a true X’s-and-O’s breakdown of why the Kubiak offense works — and how it could reshape the Raiders moving forward.
