Oakland Raiders Weigh Up Future
The Oakland Raiders emblem may tell a tale - crossed cutlasses that look as if they have been run through the neck of pirate player...heads might well start to roll.
So how does Norv Turner feel about his job security? Turner himself believes now is not the time to speculate and that it will sort itself out at the end of the season. No doubt...
The Raiders players have had to learn some tough lessons with a 4-10 record - the staff may have to learn some tougher ones in the near future.
Yet there doesn't seem to be an air of revolt or mutiny at the franchise - a different scene to the Joe Bugel and Bill Callahan departures. Turner appears to be popular and players have tried at least to play well.
Barry Sims summed it up well. "We've got to keep fighting to get out of this losing streak. I haven't thought things out much farther than that.."
..But deep down you've gotta feel that their job security is on all their minds.
