nfl franchises

If you ever wanted to know why the Oakland Raiders have gone from one of the most respected NFL Franchises, to the laughing stock that they are today, it is decisions made, like the ones made last year at the NFL draft , that have ruined this franchise.

The Silver and Black, the commitment to excellence, and one of the finest NFL Franchises ever, all that is true but the NFL game has passed Al Davis by.

To fix this franchise Al Davis has to give up some control, and hire a General Manger that understands today's game.

There are many Raider fans out there that seem to agree since they spent big bucks last season to buy a bill board to plead with Mr.

Davis to hire a General Manager already.

This is one of those stories that makes one wonder how incompetent can NFL owners really be. This story alone, aside from the decade of losing, ranks the Cincinnati Bengals among one of the worst NFL franchises.

It is no winder that the Bengals are only one of five NFL teams that do not employ a General Manager.
