which job is worse the Raiders or Rams? the rams are a bad team but the working conditions in oakland must be awful and they are a bad team.

I really had no opinion on the whole Raiders situation. I am actually kind of against firing Kiffen this early into the season with the cast he has. But the fact he sent Janiskowski out there to kick a 76 yards FG has made me re-think the situation.

I agree. At least in STL, you don't have to put up with Al Davis.

I think the Raiders can be better faster. The rams are a complete rebuild that might get closer to "average" faster but a long, long way from being good.

The Raiders have a young QB, a potentially franchise RB behind a young and improving line.

On the defensive side, they have a ball hawking secondary and a defense that can make plays.

St Louis has an aging line and a QB that has seen his better days. If I were them, I would consider trading Jackson for a package. He is the only one still worth anything. Holt is still good but at his age you wouldnt get much in the way of a trade.
