Geno Smith's Poor Play Cited in Raiders OC Chip Kelly's Firing

Raiders QB Geno Smith's poor performance for most of the season was cited as a factor in the team's decision to fire Offensive Coordinator Chip Kelly. Kelly, who was the highest-paid coordinator, lasted just 11 games as the Raiders offense ranked 31st in points per game (15.0) and 30th in total yards (268.9). Smith's play, along with an underperforming offensive line, contributed to the team's struggles, though his play is not expected to change following Kelly's departure.
