When the Raiders do good, the coach gets glorified like he's responsible for the Raiders turning things around.
When the Raiders do bad, Al gets the blame.
Al is speaking like the GM he is. He admitted making mistakes but he also wanted everyone to know that he was responsible for the Raiders turning things around.
I would have blown it with this years draft (by selecting Spiller, trading McFadden, and then drafting Spikes). Spikes is slow, and it looks like we didn't need Spiller.
Give ol Al credit for drafting McClain and Houston.... both are beasts!!
