if he gets canned in denver, i see no reason he wont get hired in oakland.

This is not going well. McD's better be the Bee's Knees.

theAPAOps5 · 01-13-2009, 02:09 PM

McD is way better than Bates. If he walks he walks.

jhat01 · 01-13-2009, 02:10 PM

Have fun with that!

clint7 · 01-13-2009, 02:11 PM

Enjoy that circus!

Kaylore · 01-13-2009, 02:11 PM

Hope Jamarcus and Lelie get ready for some bubble screens.

Not a matter of better, just that he knows things about our offensive players.

theAPAOps5 · 01-13-2009, 02:12 PM

HA the thought of Jamrcus throwing a bubble screen crack me up.

In McDaniel's system he doesn't.

Jeez, someone get Bates a stiff drink and Kiffens cell#

Whose system do you think Bates was copying this year?

So because he copied it he has more knowledge than they guy who ran it and knew each detail?

I like Bates but I like what McD has done with QB's better.

eddie mac · 01-13-2009, 02:21 PM

This is a terrible move IMO. McDaniels should've been doing his utmost to keep Bates.

Bah. I wasn't that impressed last year

BigPlayShay · 01-13-2009, 02:22 PM

I guess Greasy Al liked seeing us throw non stop deep balls against the Raiders in Denver. Must have made him drool (more than usual).

bronco militia · 01-13-2009, 02:23 PM

I could careless about Bates....Shanny ran this offense and Bates was Jays Buffer.

Coach McDonk will hire a new buffer for Jay

bowtown · 01-13-2009, 02:24 PM

I'm surprised after the playcalling in our last game against the Raiders that they would want anything to do with him. Of course Al does love a long ball and that's pretty much all we threw that entire game... never mind that we didn't connect on any of them.

Poor execution and mistakes, **** all to do with the playcalling or didn't you notice small facts like Marshall dropped the most passes in the league last year

The plays were left on the field time and time again.

Raiders owner Al Davis, who has been hospitalized in recent weeks, has been interviewing head-coaching candidates. The Raiders sought, in writing, and were granted permission to speak with Bates about a role on a new coaching staff, possibly even head coach.

Bates, 32, just finished his first season as the Broncos' primary play-caller. Quarterback Jay Cutler set a franchise single-season record for yards passing and earned his first Pro Bowl trip.

yup, the rout is on....

Man-Goblin · 01-13-2009, 02:26 PM

How freaking depressing must it be to get interviewed for a job by Al Davis in a hospital room.

broncofan7 · 01-13-2009, 02:27 PM

Spags in KC, Bates in OAK--the Irony.

SouthStndJunkie · 01-13-2009, 02:29 PM

Cutler will get over it.

tsiguy96 · 01-13-2009, 02:31 PM

everyone should have been impressed last year. bates called a lot of very good games, especially for being so young. we scored a ton of points and got even more yards, which is damn good considering the RB situation.

hes gonna be a good OC, and maybe even a head coach someday.
