Football Tim Brown suggests head coach Bill Callahan ‘sabotaged’ Raiders in Super Bowl XXXVII - Page 7

I know the Raider hate runs deep here but I thought you guys may find this interesting...
NOTE: Just to help you out, a Superbowl is the game where the AFC and the NFC champion plays for the outright title.

"We all called it sabotage...because Callahan and Gruden were good friends," Brown said. "And Callahan had a big problem with the Raiders, you know, hated the Raiders. You know, only came because Gruden made him come. Literally walked off the field on us a couple of times during the season when he first got there, the first couple years. So really he had become someone who was part of the staff but we just didn’t pay him any attention. Gruden leaves, he becomes the head coach....It’s hard to say that the guy sabotaged the Super Bowl. You know, can you really say that? That can be my opinion, but I can’t say for a fact that that’s what his plan was, to sabotage the Super Bowl. He hated the Raiders so much that he would sabotage the Super Bowl so his friend can win the Super Bowl. That’s hard to say, because you can’t prove it.
"But the facts are what they are, that less than 36 hours before the game we changed our game plan. And we go into that game absolutely knowing that we have no shot. That the only shot we had if Tampa Bay didn’t show up."

Al Davis enjoyed a lot of Chiefs Planet prayers for long life.

Oh and Callahan is an idiot for not trying to bait Tampa with fake audibles.

That would have been a great idea. Let them recognize a cpl on insignificant runs on 1st down, and then fake out an audible for a deep PA play.
