Oakland Raiders- We suck! Inspired by Charles Woodson..

Oakland Raiders- We suck! Inspired by Charles Woodson..
  The Oakland raiders fired their 11th Coach since the Jon Gruden Era.. That's pathetic , Coaches last less than 2 years,, C'mon Guys,, How can any team win or have any consistency in winning.. Simple you cant win,, that's why they are the worst team in the NFL in the past ten years and counting.. Yes,, They have won 3 SUPERBOWLS,,  but that was then and this now.. We are a society of what have you doe lately.. and lately the raiders have been horrible.. Defense , offense special teams.. YOU SPEND MONEY on old aging superstars ,, but guess what , you get what you pay for.. players with names , but no more milegage in their legs or hearts.. Its has become a refuge for old superstars to come and get paid and play out their careers.. As for the youngsters,, they don't have the desire to play hard because ,, the coach they are playing for is gone the following year and a new play book to learn, philosophy,, etc,, if anything it gets old,, players really don't care about one another,,
 Example the young stud,, Derrick Carr.. gets hurt, not one offensive line man, helps him off the field, why? Selfish , self centered , no team work  ethic. The raiders have talented players , but no direction , no leadership , and no desire.. no vision.. its starts at the top and unfortunately they don't know what to do and when to do it? Why do you fire a coach when all other coaches cant talk to you because they are working? Makes no sense? But that's the raiders history?? Now think about this,, what great coach or any coach would want to be a raider coach , where there is no job security and a bunch of players throwing each other under the bus?? I say there is always one idiot, but don't expect the prideful Jon Gruden to accept a job where they fired him after winning seasons?? Its not going to happen,, and dream on fnding a superstar coach to take that job? Sorry too many years of losing and firing coaches when they don't have the players to make it happen. Asking to turn around a team in one or two years after years of losing,, The owner Mark Davis is delusional to think that.Sorry raiders,, The team needs a complete overhaul , coaching and players and that's going to take many drafts and many personnel changes that will take at least 4 years.. The team is in trouble, the team is in disarray and the the leaders of the raiders are abandoning ship.. 0-4 and they haven't played their divisional rivals Broncos, Chargers and Chiefs , that's 6 games , and lets not forget the NFC WEST team.. Seahawks, 49ers , Cardinals and Rams.. Now can they beat any of those teams? Maybe the rams ,, but everyone else has star quarterbacks and quality defenses.. The raiders have no coach , no play makers and a injured QB squad.. Not looking good as of now,, But this id the NFL , the NO FIGURE LEAGUE, but I wouldn't bet any the raiders winning too many games and don't be surprised if they go 0-16.. Parity exists , but the raiders are making dumb decisions now , fire a coach they should of done in the off season, so they could hire a quality candidate,, Now they will probably hire Al Saunder's the Sr offensive coordinator .. and be more of a caretaker, baby sitter until the end of the season, when the raiders will shell out tons of money for a superstar coach? college or Pros; but Good luck on that.. If i was a coach. The Raider job is not favorable,, sure its a NFL gig,, but the raider job is a merry go around of hire and fire,.. But that's the raiders , they are clueless and reckless in their moves.. To me..The firing of the beloved Jon Gruden,, and Grudens revenge the following year started the raider curse.. They have fumbled and bumbled their way to the worst records in RAIDER HISTORY.. THE MANTRA ' COMMITMENT TO EXCELLENCE HAS BECOME A COMMITMENT TO LOSING.. LOSING GAMES, LOSING COACHES, LOSING FAN LOYALTY.NT TO EXCELLENCE " HAS . How can you support a team that every year, makes the same old mistakes and then blame the coach.. The players need accountability , but the owners of the raiders are impatient , out dated and have no clue how to run a winning organization.. The times have changed ,, and like the raider uniforms . they are gloomy , outdated and no longer in style. They may look mean and intimidating , but their actions dictate another image,, a image of over hyped, arrogant , self centered , no team work mentality.. Its the little things that have destroyed this once great team.. And now firing a coach after 4 games ,, its ridiculous,, and to do it over the phone , is classless, gutless and clueless, they have no respect for people and good luck hiring a quality coach .. Because based on the history of the raiders,, NO coach wants to go to a team with that kind of job security and with players that's publicly disrespect's the organization and its team members.. The Raiders have no identity , they have no leaders and have no team players.. and because of that .. They will struggle all year long and if they win one or two.. They will have to play a great game,, with team work. something we haven't seen so far.. Football is 60 minutes , not 55 or 59 minutes,, you have to play the full sixty and make clutch plays when needed. The raiders have not done it and based on whats going on right now.. I see alot more blow outs and players that are really the misfit's and cat offs , these team gets from the whole league.. The fans call their place the Black hole... how appropriate? They have become a place where aging veteran's go to get that final pay check and young players go to get big contracts , but don't give full efforts.. Its a sad truth , but the truth hurts,,, as Charles Woodson said " We suck!" But theirs a bye week coming and a new coach and sunny San Diego to look forward to... But I see a blow out and a embarrassing effort by the Raiders,, because they have no desire , no vision , no leaders and no identity.. then the rest of season to deal with.. Broncos twice , cheifs twice , seahawks, cardinals , 49ers , rams and chargers again.. but we all know the NFL means ' NO FIGURE LEAGUE, NO FUN LEAGUE , NOT FOR LONG ,, ETC.. and the Oakland raiders are exemplifying all those examples.. but for the loyal fans.. I give you credit , because rooting for a team that yearly disappoints , and teases you with success , then ultimately quits every year , is not only heartbreaking , but hurtful .. But hope is coming.. there is only 12 games left and then they the raiders can find a coach and do a house cleaning of players , and image and see what happens , but for now.. I would expect too much and if they can win four games that would be a magic trick , because as I see it.. 1-15, 2-14 IS MORE POSSIBLE THAT 12-4 , 11-5 , OR 8-8.. but stranger things have happened, But I wouldn't bet on it.. Until my next blog.. Keep the faith,, and Lets see if Jon gruden takes the job,, because hes the only one that can DO IT  right now.. and if that happens.. Look out AFC WEST.. CHUCKY will bring the excellence back to the Raiders.. I would bet on that!!!
