Sean Payton Was Going To Be The Raiders Head Coach
But once again Jerra said...I'm going to f[raiders_icon]ck Al Davis...just like he did to Mark Davis....
Payton first learned about Davis' interest in him from then-Dallas Cowboys head coach Bill Parcells. Payton revealed that things got far enough along that he and Davis even talked about a staff.
"[Davis] and I would speak nightly now about staff and it became apparent to me that he was going to offer me this job," Payton stated. "I went to Jos. A. Bank and got my black suit with the silver tie."
In the 11th hour, Payton got a call from Cowboys owner and general manager Jerry Jones, who invited Payton to his house for a meeting. After that, Payton decided to stay in Dallas.
"There's a moral of this story," Payton said. "If Jerrys' the last guy you see, you're probably staying."

I don’t think Al would have given him the chance to succeed
