SAN RAMON — Todd Downing is nowhere near a football field, standing behind the pour-over coffee set he brought from his office at Raiders headquarters. He brewed cups for fellow coaches while they talked about football, life, anything.
Now he’s serving anyone interested, some people he doesn’t even know. Instead of wearing Raiders gear after being fired as offensive coordinator last month, Downing sports blue jeans, sunglasses and a white T-shirt with the Eastown Church logo — three thick, horizontal gray lines.
Eastown is a startup church run out of Windemere Ranch Middle School, 25 minutes east of the Oakland Coliseum.
