veteranskinsfan Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 Just saw on ESPN that Saunders is interviewing for Offensive Coordinator with Al Davis. He is looking for a job next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oldskool Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 He wasn't going to be retained by Spags as the OC, it just doesn't seem to fit his style of coaching or offense. And Saunders would be insane to take the OC job with the Raiders, as they don't even have a DC or HC yet. Hell, anyone is crazy to work for Al Davis.

Oldskool Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 In a downward spiral? The only thing keeping them from rock bottom is not being the Lions. At least the Lions have stopped the spiral by axing Millen and hiring a true football coach in Schwartz. Al Davis just keeps on taking the Raiders deeper and deeper into the void at full speed. Until he dies or is incapacitated, the Raiders as of now will be the worst run and worst performing team in the NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[[ghost]] Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 He was almost their HC a few years ago. They were making a huge bid for him, but then he decided to come to DC as an OC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kappaluvacee Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 Maybe Al has a better shot at becoming the Head Coach if he takes the job as the OC first, it's not it hasn't happened in DC. We all know that Al davis is the only thing that saves our organization from being to total laughing stock of the league from a management perspective. It used to be Oak, AZ, and DC as the leauge clowns, somehow AZ has risen from that post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We all know that Al davis is the only thing that saves our organization from being to total laughing stock of the league from a management perspective. It used to be Oak, AZ, and DC as the leauge clowns, somehow AZ has risen from that post. First, it used to be Oak, DETROIT, AZ and DC as the league clowns, as you put it...Now, it's Oak, Detroit and Dallas as league clowns. Snyder and Cerrato have not been labled as "clowns" outside of the disgruntled fan base for several years now. Second, the only reason AZ is seen as rising above it is because they had a good run in the playoffs. It's not because they suddenly started doing things "right". It's more likely that they were "doing things right" all along, but as usual nobody alive will see those moves as being the right ones until after they've born fruit. It takes some real insight to be able to say "Yeah, they're not really winning right now, but that doesn't mean they're not doing things the right way right now." Unfortunately you won't find too many in the media or among fans who have that type of insight. Of course, having a possible HOF QB find a groove doesn't hurt lol...

pjfootballer Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 Someone needs to wake Al Davis up and tell him the 60's are over and Darryl Lamonica has been retired for over 30 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davros Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 As a Rams fan, I have to say I'm glad about that. That offense was offensive. I notice you guys weren't hurt too bad by his departure either. Go Rams. Redskins #2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oldskool Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 I thought Al was keeping Cable as HC Davis nor any of his cronies have said much about the HC search. Cable probably will be the de-facto candidate for HC because no one else in their right mind would take the job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pounds Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 I though Saunders had no interest in a HC position? At least that's what I heard when I found out he wasn't in the running for that position with the 'Skins after Gibbs left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
