Raiders Reuniting Pete Carroll With Controversial Star DB originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Las Vegas Raiders have made several major changes this offseason under new head coach Pete Carroll and general manager John Spytek. This included a complete overhaul of the defense, as only one starter remains from the back half of last year's group.

Las Vegas Raiders coach Pete Carroll is adamant about their chances of winning in his first tenure with the squad.

Pete Carroll was excited because, well, he's Pete Carroll. He was in the Raiders' media room Tuesday answering reporters' coaches, but much of his mind was on a team meeting just more than an hour away.
