Oakland Raiders


The Oakland Raiders were one of the best franchises of all time and now they are the most undesired teams in the NFL. The owner Al Davis has ruined the franchise and destroyed the name, Raiders. This franchise has been in the toilet now ever since they lost the Super Bowl to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Then in past weeks they lost their coach Lane Kiffin and recently just cut a former pro-bowler DeAngelo Hall, who they acquired this off-season. The whole franchise has been under scrutiny the past years because of what Al Davis has been doing with the coaches, players, and even managers. This team needs to fire Al, most the coaches, almost all of the players because of what they have shown in past years and been very uncompetitive. The Raiders used to be my favorite team being from the Oakland area, and seeing them now come in last and boring games, made me just lose all interest in the team.

Now that the team released Hall, he can actually go to a contender rather than staying on one of the worst teams in the NFL. The Oakland Raiders have been one of the worst defenses and worst passing offenses in the entire leagues and it doesn't look to be improving anytime soon. The offense has been the biggest weakness and the offense is holding back to entire team itself, the defense isn't that bad but when they are staying on the field so long they all get tired and give up the big plays. The franchise just needs a new start beginning with the owner.
