So...Gruden was a warning shot to someone else?

Raiders owner Mark Davis doesn’t seem to be very happy about the events that resulted in the resignation of coach Jon Gruden.
Via Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com, Davis was asked about Gruden’s departure on Wednesday. “I have no comment,” Davis said. And then he had a comment. “Ask the NFL. They have all the answers.” That’s a clear indication of frustration over the perception/reality that the NFL pressured Davis to fire Gruden, or Gruden to quit under threat of termination. Indeed, after Davis received some of the emails, he didn’t fire Gruden or pressure him to resign. It was only after someone leaked some of the emails to the media on Monday (following an initial leak on Friday) that the situation became untenable. It’s fair to wonder whether Davis would have kept Gruden if the emails hadn’t been leaked. Given the loyalty Davis showed to Gruden even when Gruden was 19-29 through three full seasons and wasn’t remotely close to the host seat, that’s not a stretch. Davis wants to win, and he surely believed Gruden helps the team more than Rich Bisaccia or any other interim options. Now, Davis seems to be miffed at the NFL for selectively utilizing otherwise confidential materials from the Washington Football Team investigation to force Gruden out. |

They weren't going to fire Gruden
It wasn't until the emails got leaked that it forced their hand in fear of the cancel brigade descending down upon the Raiders |

This whole thing is wild and Snyder is a disaster. Turns out a big reason these emails specifically went public is because Snyder is suing Bruce Allen in a defamation suit because he didn't like what an India media company wrote about him. Snyder is a vindictive asshole.
What did McNair once say about letting criminals run the asylum? |

The fact that Mark Davis isn't overjoyed he is out from that horrible contract is everything you need to know about how truly stupid he is.

Pretty sure its more personal than anything with him. He cherishes Grudens friendship and was apparently trying for 7 years to get him back on the Raiders until he finally got him. Then he had to fire him and it wasn't even his choice and he's the owner of the team.

The NFL has known all about Dan Snyder. He should have been dealt with long ago.
To the age of the emails, it does illustrate the measure of the man. |

More on the India story. It's just wild. Not to mention the careless, or potentially intentional, redacting of all info except for some reason choosing not to redact grudens email address. |
