DOORMAT DIVISION 11-year Standings UPDATE!


DOORMAT DIVISION 11-year (plus) STANDINGS

Now that the Raiders have fired head coach Dennis Allen, we have to put down a marker as we follow the CURSE OF CHUCKY legacy.  Here are the current standings (4 games into 2014 season) on the best Doormats ever since that fateful Super Bowl. As you can see, the Raiders are starting to get some separation on the Browns and Lions.
Ever since the Raiders lost the Super Bowl after the 2002 season, getting blown out by the Tampa Bay Bucs, the Curse of Chucky has been in effect (Jon Gruden's revenge), as the Silver and Blacked Out have not registered a winning season since then. Remember, Gruden coached the Raiders until being fired by Davis for being, uh, so good a coach the players liked him better than Davis, plus Davis not getting credit for the team's success. Then Gruden took over the Bucs the next season, and just buried the Raiders in the Super Bowl, 48-21. Until the Raiders have a winning season, all long-term Doormat Standings will begin with the 2003 season.  
 
OAKLAND RAIDERS     53-127

CLEVELAND BROWNS  57-122

DETROIT LIONS          58-122

ST. LOUIS RAMS         64-115


BUFFALO BILLS          71-109   


Until they re-hire Gruden, or have a "Jon Gruden" day in Oakland, this is not going to stop.

  1. The Raiders have a worse record than the Lions since 2003. Talk about a new low.

    1. Yep, so many think the Lions own the Basement, but the last few years that had some wins...but the Raiders never got over 8-8 (two seasons in a row that now look like glory years).
