ALAMEDA, Calif. -- Jack Del Rio made a clear statement about the future of his football team Wednesday in the middle of answering a question about the improvement he's seen from the Oakland Raiders defense.
“As we go forward, we’re going to build a dominant defense here,” Del Rio said flatly. “We’ve taken some steps and showed some signs, but that’s something that will happen. It’s just a matter of when.”
It was a strong take by a defensive-minded coach.
