The Oakland Raiders fired coach Dennis Allen on Monday, just four games - and four losses - into his third season. The decision was announced soon after the Raiders returned from London where they lost their 10th straight game dating back to last season, 34-14 to the Miami Dolphins. Allen was the first head coach hired by Oakland after the death of longtime owner Al Davis. His 8-28 win-loss record is the worst for the club since before Davis arrived in 1963. Dennis Allen was sacked as head coach by the Oakland Raiders after four straight defeats in 2014 The Raiders were thrashed 38-14 by the Miami Dolphins in an NFL International Series game at Wembley
