so kim jung al passed away this last saturday and the raids won a huge game this sunday versus the vaunted houston texans....im giddy fosho as i thought they would choke away another victory...
al was the raiders and now we are finding out more of what most believed to be the case....al meddled into everything....he made all the decisions and made his mark (sometimes of "skid" variety) on the once great oakland raider football club....he would call coaches before during and after games....he made every single draft selection....and as his years went on, his age showed....as he was unwilling to take on the newer forms of defense....i say defense because that is where AL truly believed he knew everything about! the raids always played a base style of D...with man to man at the corners....teams didnt need to prepare much for what oakland was going to show them defensively...the raiders were easily read and this made it tough goings for my team over the years...
now, we will see way more zone coverages....cover 2....zone blitzes...a more modern way of using personnel...
so i say looky out! raids are for real now...
rip mr davis...you will be missed....you made your mark and now its time for the team to fly!
