Raiders owner Al Davis sent a letter to Lane Kiffin recently asking for the coach to resign, ESPN's Chris Mortensen reports. Kiffin has refused to resign, he told Mortensen. The Raiders finished 4-12 in Kiffin's first season as coach. Chris Mortensen covers the NFL for ESPN. |

Do you think Tice would take the job? I mean that as a serious question. But Tice runs the offensive style Al likes, power run, deep passing. Davis will either get a washed up coach or a coach desperate to be HC. I dont think Tice is either. one of worse kept secrets is Holmgren will probably retire after next year, and Tice would love to have that job. |

I would hope not. It's not a good situation to be in, and tice has already worked with one poorly ran/owned franchise, and i'd like to think if chance arises he'd be more pickey. |

There's no way Tice will get the Seattle job. his stamp was on Jaguar's rushing attack this year, and I think if teams look at what Tice did w/ MN and what happened after he left, he'd have to be intriguing. He was also a former seahawk which is a loose connection I know. But, if I thought I had a chance at Seatle, I'd off the raiders and wait. Al Davis just may have to scout HS coaching ranks...I cant imagine a lot of interest in that spot. I'd put that and atlanta as the two least desirable of vacancies (atlanta's was filled...) |

Paul Allen doesn't care how much he pays a coach. He just cares about getting the best coach he can find and Tice isn't his idea of a great coach. Seatle job is tough one too, it's a veteran team that'll soon have a lot of holes. Alexander is washed up, walter jones is on wrong side of 30... who knows how much longer Matt will be able to be a tier 2 QB, he may slip a bit. |
