Two sources within the Raiders organization said it appears that Oakland Raiders coach Art Shell could be fired as early as Thursday, Yahoo! Sports has learned.
Shell, who guided the Raiders to a league-worst 2-14 mark this season, was called into a meeting with Oakland managing general partner Al Davis and assumption is that Davis was negotiating a settlement with Shell for the final two years of his contract.
If Shell is fired, it would mark the third
No surprise:idea: the guy was emotionless on the side lines
Why fire him? He got the Faiders 1st pick next year
On a side note, I'm sure Moss will remain with the team...
Yup, no surprise, Moss should be traded for someone younger too.
All in all the Raiders D is good, they just need to work with their offensive line, get a solid QB and receiver.
Its going to take more then just firing the head coach to turn things around. There is a lot of players on that roster that need to be shown the door.
Again?
I wonder if the Falcons will pick him up.....:idea:
I think the Raiders sucking is a lot more than Art Shell and firing him won't make much difference.
They are certainly a far cry from the team I worshipped about 30 years ago, prior to their move to LA. About the time Art was playing.
They should send Brooks and Moss with him
how many good O-lineman can u get for Moss?? U can get a QB in the draft. Grab a receiver in the second round. Promote Rob Ryan to head coach.
Damn could it be that easy?
