well there goes the raiders chances to make the playoffs this season..

"Quite frankly, I'm disappointed by all these things, mostly by the fact that someone would quit on this organization, this football team and this head coach at this juncture"

Looks to me like the organization has already quit on itself.

Nothing wrong with heading to the lifeboat when the ship is sinking.

"Quite frankly, I'm disappointed by all these things, mostly by the fact that someone would quit on this organization, this football team and this head coach at this juncture," Cable said Monday. "It's wrong.

Get over yourself @S$hole.

Aren't the Rats the first ones off the ship?

Oh come on Cable, shouldn't you be focusing on your teams new NFL record of six consecutive seasons with 11 or more loses? The entire coaching staff could walk out today and this sad sack organization will attain the same result as if you were there..........3 - 13. Just lose baby.

well he was an offensive line coach and from what ive seen from the raiders the line wasnt very good so what exactly are u griping about?

Sorry but didn't the Raiders fire Kiffin during the season? Maybe the coaches see the writing on the wall.

The Rat is clearly the owner of the Raiders.

I'm surprised that the Raiders wanted to keep their offensive line coach

Don't worry about the Raiders staff, Coach Cable. You probably won't be there next year either.

I'd be careful, because the Raiders' staff hasn't exactly done great this year.

Man... We just plain suck... Not like thats a Newsflash or anything... When will the pain end???... Someone throw me a rope

Kiffin hired those guys in the first place, and the Raiders ae going nowhere...again. Should they wait until they are put out to the pasture? No, they should jump on their next opportunity while they can.

Really, if you had the chance to get away from Al Davis, wouldn't you?!

Yes, definitely.

Oh come on - Cable is out of his mind. Any decent coach would do almost anything to get out of Oakland. His protestations ring shallow - just because he wants to kiss Al Davis's **** doesn't mean he should expect anybody else to.

As long as owners let coaches go mid season and mid contract and turn out their staff, then they can expect nothing different in return..
maybe he is just ticked that Kiffin did not offer him a position and he knows he is on the way out too?

Cable was probably one of the assistant coaches stabbing Kiffin in the back so as they say; what goes around comes around. Besides, in order to coach an offensive line you have to HAVE an offensive line.

Why should anyone stay loyal to Davis, the team or players when none of them are loyal in return. I wish Kiffin nothing but success down in Tenn. and hope he wins a national title.
