Al Davis would rather lose and than let us pick him up. Just look at when they woulndt cut Dominic Rhodes because Denver and Tampa Bay needed a RB.

He started the first four games of this season before injuring his back at Miami, where he had 15 carries for 74 yards in the first half. At the time, he ranked among the top five in NFL rushing.
