The interim head coach of the Las Vegas Raiders, Antonio Pierce is enjoying the support of his players. Davante Adams, the wide receiver who had a role in sacking the former head coach Josh McDaniel shared his opinion on the interim coach. He said that he wants the ‘permanent’ tag for the HC.

He was not alone. Maxx Crosby also expressed his support for the head coach. He strived for some stability in the squad and that was the reason, he asked to promote the interim head coach to the permanent one. With the open public support, Pierce is strengthening his footing in the team.

Crosby said:

I've made the playoffs one time in five years. It's bulls---. And we've got to figure out what we're going to do moving forward. And I'm sick of change. I'm sick of losing. I just want stability and f---ing consistency, and that's all that matters to me. I want to win.
Maxx Crosby said to the reporters

Since taking charge, Pierce has done a good job as the interim head coach of the team. He has ensured four victories and four losses in eight games. Among those four victories, three were large ones. However, he suffered some big losses as well. The loss against the Chiefs was an unfortunate one. Nonetheless, Pierce ensured discipline in the squad. Players like Davante Adams were rebels in the time of the former coach but have now become consistent performers.

Davante Adams also wants Antonio Pierce retained

Not only Crosby, but wide receiver Adams also wants the team to retain the interim head coach for the next season. The stability might be a cause behind this wish. Adams openly praised his present coach.

Here is what Adams told the reporters:

I mean, he's come in and done a great job and he's continued to win us over. It's not just the comfortable thing; I think having A.P. here will be good for this organization. He kind of embodies what it means to be a Raider and that mentality, that swag, and all the things that he endorses are the things that I believe in.
Davante Adams to the reporters

The WR also said that it would be easy for him to work with the interim coach. Though Pierce has failed to take the team to the playoffs, he did initiate a positive drive in the team.
