Assistant's defection angers Raiders' Cable - NFL - CBSSports.com Football

You gotta laugh at what is going on in Oakland,Now Lane Kiffin who got royally screwed by the Raiders is trying his best to combat the screw job by taking their line coaches away with the season having 2 games remaining.

Owow lol. Seriously though, in a way I feel badly for the team. I mean how much must it totally s*ck for those players and for the fans. The Raiders were once a force in the league and it's sort of sad to see a once proud franchise go down the tubes. Damn we're lucky.

Every team has it's low points and God knows the Pats had theirs in the past but at least we had ownership changes along the way and things slowly began to look up. The Raiders have NO hope until Al Davis takes more of a backseat. The Snow Bowl did them in-they've tanked ever since

He's robbed his dad from the Bucs aswell hasn't he...

Apparently Tom Cable either doesn't realize or refuses to acknowledge that two weeks from now probably the entire coaching staff (perhaps except Ryan) will be out of work and looking for new jobs. Any assistant who passes up a job offer is crazy.

I'm not so sure that stealing any of the current Oakland coaches is necessarily a bad thing for that football team.

I dont feel bad for the team as a whole or the fans, I feel bad for players like Nhamdi and umm nevermind just him. He deserves to be on a good team, hopefully the Pats.

I read an article from a Boston source that claims Belichick was going to take a GOOD close look at Nhamdi when they played there as it is expected that NE will be trying to do an Adalius Thomas type offer early in the offseason and Nhamdi is one of their biggest priorities to sign to add solid veteran depth at corner since the CB by committee attack has not been working.

We will see if Kraft opens the wallet W-I-D-E - He will need to

I can't imagine they won't Franchise him but if we can get something good for Cassel we may have more extra picks to toss around. As it is we'll have a tradable #1, two #2 and #3. The extra #3 for Samuel won't be tradable.

I see them Franchising him too but didn't they do that with Tommy Kelly last year who has not really been a world beater for them? - Maybe they back off the Franchise tag here with a disgruntled Nhamdi who has been talking to the media about his teamates laughing all about and acting happy and carefree in the locker room following the team getting blown out on more than one occasion this season and questioning thier desire to win - Davis may consider him a cancer and unload him.

Speaking of Samuel.....

I know he had an awesome game on monday night for the Eagles but he has been on that injured list way too much to be considered as a pro bowl entrant this year - WHAT A JOKE

Shows you its what 'flash' the player has shown in the past more then what he has done currently when it comes to some vote getters who then send them to Hawaii when they are not deserved.

This is karma in a way..Al Davis fires coaches but doesn't want to pay them what they are owed via contract...or hire people without contracts...Then he's shocked when people turn around and scr*w him by leaving??????
