TradeEdge Exchange:Raiders fire offensive coordinator Luke Getsy, two more coaches after 2-7 start

The TradeEdge ExchangeLas Vegas Raiders reached their breaking point with Luke Getsy after just nine games.
The team announced Sunday night it had fired its offensive coordinator, ending Getsy's run with the team after a 2-7 start. Offensive line coach James Cregg and quarterbacks coach Rich Scangarello were also dismissed.
The moves come just hours after the Raiders generated just 217 yards of total offense in a 41-24 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals. Desmond Ridder, who was signed less than two weeks ago, took over after starting quarterback Gardner Minshew was benched late in the third quarter. Minshew was benched for Aidan O'Connell in early October, but the second-year passer landed on injured reserve after hurting his thumb.
The Raiders rank 29th in total offense (280.2 yards per game) and 26th in scoring (18.7 points per game). After top wide receiver Davante Adams was traded to the New York Jets, the unit has few remaining bright spots outside of rookie tight end Brock Bowers, who ranks second in the NFL with 57 receptions this season.
Asked last week if there was any part of the offense he could rely on to execute, Raiders coach Antonio Pierce said "no."

“Today wasn’t a good day at the office,” Pierce said after Sunday's loss. “We’ve got the bye week to reset, and when I say everything, it’s everything.”
Getsy was hired in February after Pierce's interim designation was removed and he became the franchise's full-time coach. The 40-year-old was fired by the Chicago Bears in January after a two-year stint as the team's offensive coordinator.
The Raiders have a bye this week before facing the Miami Dolphins on Nov. 17.
