Tom Cable Expected to Meet With Al Davis About Job Status

ALAMEDA, Calif. — Tom Cable is expected to meet with owner Al Davis to discuss his status as Oakland Raiders coach.

The two had planned to meet Monday after Cable spent a week evaluating the team with his assistants. As of early Monday afternoon, the meeting had not yet happened.

Cable's job status is in question after he went 5-11 in his first full season as coach and failed to develop JaMarcus Russell into a legitimate NFL quarterback.

Cable points to the team's improvement after Russell's midseason benching as proof that he deserves another year to get the Raiders back to the playoffs. Oakland has lost at least 11 games for seven straight seasons.

Cable has a 9-19 record since replacing Lane Kiffin as coach early in the 2008 season.
