what should your team do?

Re: what should your team do?

They are going to hire Garrett, I can feel it.

Its like the EA exclusivity contract all over again.
Giants, Eagles and Redskins will be very happy...

Cellar dwellers again...

ESPN just announced that the Cowboys are gonna remove the interim tag from Garrett. Seems like your "feelings" were right lol.

Re: what should your team do?

Why would the Raiders fire Cable after the obvious turn around in the demeanor of the team, possibly going undefeated in the division, breaking the streak against the Chargers, destroying the Broncos, and having their best record since the Super Bowl season?

Earlier this year I read that Hue Jackson chose Oakland over Chicago because he was promised to be the next head coach in Oakland. I don't know details but it seems logical. If you look at it, the reason we had a good season was because the offense turned things around which is due to Jackson(and McFadden playing like a beast). I would not be surprised at all if Cable was fired and Jackson was named the next head coach.

The Guy is an Absolute tool..
Here is what we will have next year to look forward to...


Show us a Blitz look, and we will Audible to a Draw play.
When I hear Kill Kill Kill.. I want to Kill Garrett..


Our short passing game is behind or at the line of scrimmage..
Press our Receivers, and he will still call a smoke route..
The only time you do that is when the DB is 10 yards off
of the receiver. I have never seen any D do that to us
in years...Dez Bryant would get Doubled.. But they never
let him have a free release..

There is not one 3 yard out or slant in his book..
He will pass on first down.. 80% of the time.. then
run on 2nd down 99%..

He does not understand the red zone.. Passing on
first down from the 9 Yard line.. then he wonders
why his teams gets yards, but not TD's..


He will run sweeps with Barber, our slowest back, then
run our fastest back between the tackles..
He will put Barber in at FB and fool no one..



He made his career off of Romo scrambling and chucking
it up to TO..All Improvisation..


Romo is good QB, I really think he could be great..
But with Garrett as his mentor, he will go nowhere

I mean, I know it's Al Davis, but that makes no sense. Unless they're going to bring in a big name guy, but that's no their M.O.

That said, I'd love Gruden back.

Looks like it's gonna happen:

http://www.nfl.com/news/story/09000d...e=HP_headlines

Tom Cable is unlikely to return as the Oakland Raiders' coach, a league source said Sunday.

Raiders owner Al Davis is expected to survey the coaching landscape, and he will not decide Cable's future until some time in the middle of the month.

With a 31-10 victory over the AFC West champion Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday, Cable led the Raiders to an 8-8 record this season, including a perfect 6-0 mark in the division. But Cable is 17-27 overall since taking over as coach in the middle of the 2008 season.

Cable presently doesn't have an official contract with the Raiders, but Davis can pick up an option for two more year

I would've partially agreed with you prior to the 8 games in which Jason Garrett took over. The offense did stink early this year and was pretty predictable during 08-09.

But in the grand scheme of things, his offense has put up points the last 3-4 years. So regardless of how 'simple' Ray-Ray said the offense is, it's obviously doing something right. And fast forward to the last 8 games of this past season, we've even been running the ball which was a knock on Garrett the last couple years.

Assuming Garrett is the head coach and if Ray Sherman can become the offensive coordinator, I like our offensive playcalling going into next year.

Re: what should your team do?

After watching this Chargers season, and particularly yestarday's game plus watching all the AFC playoff teams yesterday, Norv must be fired now (and maybe even AJ Smith).

This team will never even be close to winning a championship with Norv as the head coach.
