In frank and candid terms, Raiders coach Tom Cable addressed on Monday the decision to yank quarterback JaMarcus Russell from Sunday's loss to the Jets for Bruce Gradkowski, per David White of the San Francisco Chronicle.
The basic problem? Failure of execution.
On the team's first play from scrimmage, Cable dialed up a deep ball. And Cable said that, despite days of preparation, Russell didn't get the offense lined up properly, he ignored the check-down option when the deep routes were covered, he took a sack, and he fumbled the ball...
Cable also called out Russell for his two interceptions. As to the first one, Cable said "[t]here wasn't anybody there to throw the ball to."
Ouch again.
If public humiliation generated by his head coach won't force the light to finally come on, then it's fair to conclude that there's simply no switch.
