Image by David Becker, AP<\/figcaption><\/figure>Rich Bisaccia<\/a> is the interim head coach for the Las Vegas Raiders<\/a> right now. He was thrust into this role after his predecessor Jon Gruden<\/a> resigned<\/a> from the job earlier this season. Interim coaches are not expected to hold onto that role for too long. They are placeholders until the team can find a new person to replace them. Bisaccia was expected to be the team’s manager until the season was complete. It appears as though his squad likes him as their leader right now though. <\/p>
The Raiders are currently 5-2 and sit atop their division. This was a spot few people expected them to hold at all this season. He has guided his team through some rough waters along the way. Bisaccia first had to address the team after Gruden resigned. Now he is navigating another catastrophe with the Henry Ruggs<\/a> situation<\/a>. <\/p>
If he can guide the Raiders through both of these events and make the playoffs at the end of the year, the team should probably give some thought about dropping the interim word from his title. If not or Las Vegas wants to go another direction, they could be looking to bring in somebody new to replace Bisaccia. Perhaps Lincoln Riley<\/a> may be interested.<\/p>
