I always feel sorry for his death. I'm very sad.

In fact we don't want to lose him.In October of 2011, long time Raiders Owner and NFL pioneer, Al Davis died after having complication from surgery. Many in the organization and around the NFL world were saddened with Davis’s death. Many also saw a new era for the Raiders organization. In January of 2012, long time Packers front office man, Reggie McKenzie was appointed as the Oakland Raiders General Manager.



As his first act, McKenzie and Mark Davis, Al Davis’s son, appointed former Denver Broncos defensive coordinator, Dennis Allen as the Raiders new head coach. Mark Davis has openly said that he will be supporting the franchise from the business stand point, and that Reggie McKenzie and Dennis Allen will be running the football operation of the team. It seems that the Raiders have set the pieces of a consistent foundation for the near and long term future, but there is a lot of work to be done, to put the Raiders back on the the winning path into a playoff contending team.
