Lol, yeah - now I can only laugh. Saunders was a great coach with the Raiders and he is not even getting a shot at the job.

As I recall, isn't he a run up the middle type of coach - was he with the Raiders under Cable? If so, that offense was really bad. Therefore, McFadden may not fit Knapp's offense, so I guess McFadden is going to be leaving, bah. This is seriously looking real grim for Raider fans. Bah, Coach Saunders should have been considered.

Just to remind everyone - KC is still looking for an OC and Jackson and now Saunders are available. Meanwhile the Raiders hired Knapp.

Worse. He was OC under Kiffin.

He and Kiffin were the architects of the McCown/Culpepper/Russell fiasco. Knapp is a WCO nut. So the NEW offense is bound to be as complex and as confusing as possible.

We WERE in a situation with a smart big-armed QB going into a full offseason with his young fast receivers and getting ready to get the timing down and get comfortable.

Well you can fucking stick a fork in that because it's DONE.

Wow, all I can do is sit here and shake my head.

I read an article that said Dennis Allen is coming to us after a "standout" season as DC in Denver. Well if that was a stand-out season then we've all lowered our bars way too much.

24th in points allowed. That's Allen's standout season - his ONLY season as a coordinator in the NFL. DEN's point differential this season was -81.

Now Knapp.

So much for "importing success."

Fuck this.
