Coach On Oakland Season

Football Betting Lines

Punt Returners: This has not been an area of strength for the Giants in 2011, as their average of 6.1 yards per return was the fourth-lowest mark in the league and the team didn't have one of more than 18 yards. Cornerbacks Aaron Ross (7.1 avg.) and Will Blackmon (4.2 avg.), who does own three career punt return touchdowns, have received the bulk of the work.

 

Special Teams Defense: The Giants' coverage corps was solid during the regular season, limiting teams to 9.9 yards per punt return and 22.9 on kickoffs while not allowing a special-teams touchdown over the course of the year, and certainly made a difference in the narrow win over San Francisco in the NFC Championship. Rookie linebacker Jacquian Williams came up with the critical strip of the Niners' Kyle Williams in overtime and recorded a team-best 17 special-teams tackles for a group that also received noteworthy efforts from two other 2011 draft choices -- safety Tyler Sash (15 tackles) and linebacker Greg Jones.

 

"It's an incredible opportunity to be a defensive coordinator in this league, but it's especially humbling to be one for the Ravens," Pees said. "We've got a great group. It is a unique group, one of the most unique groups I've ever been around. They've got their own style, their own personality. It's not going to change and I'm not going to change it."

 

Pees also coached the linebackers at New England from 2004-05 before taking over the coordinator's position -- which he held until joining the Ravens following the 2009 season. The Patriots' defense allowed less than 20 points per game in every season under Pees' guidance.

 

Allen, who spent this past season as defensive coordinator of the Denver Broncos, reportedly reached an agreement with the Raiders and new general manager Reggie McKenzie earlier this week.

 

Allen was named defensive coordinator of the Broncos on January 24, 2011. He had been with the New Orleans Saints the previous five seasons, serving as assistant defensive line coach from 2006-07 and as the secondary coach from 2008-10.

 

Allen will become Oakland's seventh different head coach since Jon Gruden left after the 2001 season. Bill Callahan spent two years as head coach and guided Oakland to the Super Bowl after the 2002 campaign, losing to Gruden's Buccaneers, but the Raiders haven't had a winning season since.

 

Cincinnati, OH (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Former Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Greg Cook, whose brief career was cut short by injury, died on Thursday night from an undisclosed illness. He was 65. "I've lost a good friend," Bengals president Mike Brown said on Friday morning. "Greg had a good heart. He never lost his interest in quarterbacks and he would come into my office and visit with me and we would talk about prospects. He was a great quarterback. He could do it all. He was mobile, big, strong, accurate. It was the kind of injury that today could have been repaired just like that."

 

However, a rotator-cuff issue caused him to miss most of the next four seasons, limiting him to one more game, in 1973, before his retirement.

 

(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Cleveland Browns have hired Brad Childress as offensive coordinator, according to a report. Childress will become the first offensive coordinator under Browns head coach Pat Shurmer, NFL.com reported Friday.
