I think Moss being still on the coaching staff is more a favor than anything else.. not to mention that we are trying to probably recapture some of the money in his contract.
Think about this.. if reports are true about the defensive staff splintered and infighting.. do you really want to keep one of the main components of the issues intact?
Whether he was correct in his stance or opinion, contributing to tearing down the unison is not a endearing trait as part of a coaching staff.
Listen to the Moss quotes coming out of Oakland's press, they sound if they are coming from a guy needing a job badly. I think that is a solid sign that Moss is on his way out.
As a former player, having a chance to come up and lead a football team as a head coach or in whatever capacity Mr. Davis feels would help the team, Id be interested.

More often than not, being patient is a quality practice.. however at times you need to pull the trigger quickly if the right player or coach presents themselves.. to this point, we haven't seen the ability or desire for either to move rapidly.
We can only watch to see how this plays out..
