Last year, Ryan sought to join Mangini with the Jets but Raiders owner Al Davis blocked the lateral move because Ryan had one more year on his deal.

Raiders owner Al Davis is pretty quick to fire a head coach. Just ask the past four Raiders head coaches, none of whom reached a third season. Because every yin needs a yang, Davis takes his careful time finding a replacement head coach. Just ask the past...

by Ryan Wilson Filed under: Raiders , AFC West , NFL Fans , NFL Media Watch (photos courtesy of Getty Images) ESPN's Chris Mortensen seems mild-mannered enough. But apparently, there are only so many times you can accuse a guy of bearing false witness before he snaps. Or maybe that just applies to Al Davis , who appears to take great joy in refuting Raiders-related rumors, no matter how obvious...

Raiders owner Al Davis has not technically interviewed anyone for the head-coaching job yet, and he most certainly is not selling off his Pride and Poise. That's the company line, and team officials couldn't put it any more forcefully on a Sunday full of...
