Raiders Owner Mark Davis: 'Where This Team Is Right Now Is My Fault'

Oakland Raiders owner Mark Davis isn't blaming head coach Jon Gruden for the team's 1-8 start—he's blaming himself.

"I always look in the mirror, and the buck stops with me," Davis told ESPN's Paul Gutierrez after Sunday's 20-6 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers. "Where this team is right now is my fault. We haven't been able to build a 22-man roster. We haven't been able to give this team a chance to win because the Reconstruction failed. We failed from 2014 on to have a roster right now."

The Raiders have fallen from rising darling of the NFL in 2016 to the bottom of the league.
