wow somebody at work early 2day
October 13th, 2009 at 6:23 am
i didn’t watch the game on sunday…
i didn’t listen to it either…
didn’t even follow it on nfl.com…
i told the wife about 3:30 that the raiders were playing… she was surprised that i was doing yard work instead of following the game…
because sunday was the first time in years that i didn’t follow the raider game…
but, i did check the score at about quarter to four… i think it was 41-7…
i see Jacarcass threw 13 times… i see Jacarcass fumbled 3 times… i see we ran fewer than 40 plays in the game…
some people want to blame everybody… i don’t know… being defeated shows… the raiders were defeated before the game even started…
in my opinion something happened between the end of the San Diego game and the beginning of the Chiefs game… i don’t know what it is… it would be intersting to find out…
clearly, we have a serious lack of talent on the o-line… due to a couple of injuries, we’re starting guys that probably wouldn’t make most teams…
our d-line has visibly lost it’s spirit… they’re just not doing it…
being defeated shows…
i don’t know how good our non-linemen are right now (exept DHB, right now he sucks)… because both of our lines are hurting… this is what happens when linemen are secondary considerations…
Coach Gibbs proved that an outstanding line can make an average backfield great… it’s why he traded Schroeder to us…
we’re proving the opposite… that a schitty o-line makes an entire team suck…
some guys last week was saying we need to be patient…
i don’t think that’s true…
some of you can scoff… but there is no doubt in my mind… with my limited abilities and experience… that i could do a better job at running this team than Al Davis…
in fact… i would bet that half the posters on this blog could do a better job at running this team than Al Davis…
even that evil, ridiculous, annoying little pissant Rack of Crap could do a better job of running this team than Al Davis…
and yes, i know i have been a big Davis supporter in the past…
but as a fellow businessman… i have no problem telling Al Davis that “results matter”…
October 13th, 2009 at 6:26 am
Interesting lets all cross our fingers.
Among the reasons for hope I have provided for Jacksonville fans asking about the possibility of the team leaving town are Wayne Weaver’s steadfast reaffirmation that he’s not looking to leave or sell and the lack of a suitor in this economy.
The second part of that is less sturdy than it was, to hear billionaire developer Ed Roski Jr. tell it.
In a meeting with the editorial board of the San Gabriel Valley Tribune, he provided an update of his Southern California Stadium plan and named names when it came to potential occupants, including the Jaguars.
“Roski said the NFL always has had three conditions for a Los Angeles-area stadium: location, cost and certainty. He said his proposal meets all three and it is likely to be enticing to as many as seven teams in need of new stadiums.”
“But, Roski added, ‘without local ownership we’ll never get this thing off the ground.’”
“Roski named as potential tenants the New Orleans Saints, Buffalo Bills, Minnesota Vikings, Jacksonville Jaguars, San Diego Chargers, Oakland Raiders and San Francisco 49ers.”
That list of seven includes virtually every team in the league with an economic question a stadium question or both.
There’s a long way from his wish list to approval of a stadium and an owner willing to partner with him and we haven’t heard a reaction from Weaver yet, who I expect will reassert his intentions to stay. The league’s been skeptical of the possibilities in the past and L.A. hasn’t ranked as a priority.
But Roski’s talk won’t do anything to quiet down the masses who look at the Jaguars’ ticket sales and blackout issues and presume the team isn’t long for the region

Morning DBW…force of habit…I do live in florida soo if you out west it appears I up waaay early =)
October 13th, 2009 at 6:29 am
Oakland makes the most sense, considering big Al is broke and he wont be around forever. I think he partners up and leaves his son the team, with Trask being the next Al Davis with the spunk he had as a youngster. Big if i know, but hey thats the light at the end of the tunnel i’m looking for lol.

October 13th, 2009 at 7:12 am
Yeah, i heard that 6 teams are interested and are willing to give up their first round pick for him…ughhhhhhhhh!!!!
October 13th, 2009 at 7:20 am
I hear ya 408!!!
October 13th, 2009 at 7:21 am
Morning nation. Still going down with the ship. This is Nation 4 life.
October 13th, 2009 at 7:23 am
I have 100% confidence in one man who can turn this team around and thats the Tuna.
Since we cannot get the Tuna I just hope Al gets to work on that Oline. Oline needs to be able to punish people in the fourth quarter. I have always worried about JR’s body outgrowing him. Some folks are like that. His butt keeps growing. Poor boy cant hardly bend over for the ball without looking like its a struggle.
Dline needs to be able to get a pass rush in the fourth quarter so we stop teams in the last minutes.
Combine that with a O that puts points on the board and we can be a 500 team again. Thats the best I can hope for in the future.
Playing all the young players gets them ready for first string, if not backup.
If we can substitute players on the oline and dline in the fourth, we can win more games.
October 13th, 2009 at 7:26 am
Nnamdi needs 2 suffer with the rest of us at least he got paid.
October 13th, 2009 at 7:32 am

you can piss off, we have been complaining about the server for months. It probaly amounts down to hits, even if its a short time fix. Thats all newspapers can do today. Short term fixes and prayer.
Heck, it took years to get the registration and trolls cleaned up, a little bit.
October 13th, 2009 at 7:37 am
If there is a boycott of the game Sunday and AD sees an empty Black Hole, then I hope they like the commute to the new L.A. Stadium. Don’t give AD an excuse to move, support your team.
October 13th, 2009 at 7:43 am
One simple definition of insanity – repeating the same behaviors over and over but expecting different results. In this vein, Al Davis is truly insane. Peyton Manning couldn’t make this team better. This team would make him worse and it is because the organization, as a whole, is lacking sane, competent, leadership. Go ahead and trade Aso. It doesn’t matter what players are on the roster. Cable could start the AFC pro bowl squad and he would still lose. Richard Seymour played lights out for exactly one week until he realized how unhealthy this organization is. It is like an old, sick dog that can no longer have any quality of life. It just needs to be put out of it’s misery.

Where have you seen/read that?
In some ways, I feel for Nnam, best in the league, on one of the leagues worst teams. He has been every bit the Raider, since we know we arent going anywhere should we let him have a chance to be a winner?
October 13th, 2009 at 7:49 am
405, my friend teted me this morning saying that he got it from Jay Glazer. I wanted to verify if anyone else have seen, read, or heard about that. I do feel for him too….and if he leaves, i wish him the best!
October 13th, 2009 at 7:51 am
we dont have a choice lol
October 13th, 2009 at 7:59 am
Knowing Al Davis, he’ll trade Nnam to the Patriots for a 3rd round pick and 5 million dollars…The old man has checked out.
October 13th, 2009 at 8:03 am
Part of me says trade him for a chance to win since he has been every part what you would hope for in a Raider. On the same hand, we need him to help turn this ship around, but he came in the year after the SB loss and has never sniffed a winning season

===============================================
Nnamdi has been thrown at 6 times this year and given up 5 receptions. Best in the NFL?
Don’t feel sorry for these millionaires, even if they never win another game in their career. I bet the fans care more about the losses than the players do, at least most of them.
For someone to say “trade this guy so he can go win” is ridiculous. Come on man. I can see “trade him for picks or some o-line stud” but otherwise that is just lame.
October 13th, 2009 at 8:11 am
what if we ran the widcat and handed the ball off to russell as long as he holds on to the ball that would be like an automatic 1st down
October 13th, 2009 at 8:18 am
Trading Aso wouldnt do anything for anybody…First of all we would lose our best player second of all 89% of teaqms out there run zone or soft cover two and Aso has made his living playing Al I mean Man Defense sure he would be good in other colors but not as dominating if he goes it better be for a jake Long type any one see him handle the whole Jets Line lastnight??
October 13th, 2009 at 8:18 am

Good Morning 4eva, OAK, Plun, pete, and Dogg.
October 13th, 2009 at 8:50 am
OAK,
What are you doing now, found work?
School is killing me bro. School & family don’t mix well.
JR is not the only problem. I want Cable gone. I see him as the problem, and his play calling even a bigger problem.
October 13th, 2009 at 9:01 am
Morning O =)
From the 1st hand accounts posted here…
It seems that Jmac is throwing 2 the wrong WR or always going 2 his 1st option.
That means there are other open WR or RB’s.
Gradkowski led Div.1A in completion % at Toledo his senior year,I think
Maybe Jmac should sit a game or 2 because this isnt working at this point.Maybe it will but the blue-print on us is there 4all 2C
Gradkowski would be a wild-card,meaning I dont even know how he would do with our line.But we gotta do something.
Plus a high completion % means he knows where everyone is.
But man just 2B able 2 complete the smallest of screens or middle floods would have 2 open it up 4 Bush
Always been a Jmac supporter but he needs 2 watch and let his head clear.Plus I dont want him or any other Raider injuried.
I think Gradkowski can complete a lil screen or flood,then let Bush start running wild.Please
October 13th, 2009 at 9:05 am
Did anyone else see that Jets-Dolphins game last night.
Man I am so jealous, this team sucks!
Hene sure did look good. It is amazing what A QB can do with accuracy and BLOCKING!!!!!!
October 13th, 2009 at 9:07 am
Cable: This team is right about to turn the corner. You people can write whatever you want.
“THE RAIDERS SUCK. CABLE DILLUSIONAL.”
By Everyone.
October 13th, 2009 at 9:08 am
Look what the Dolphins were able to do with there two running backs. I bet you if Bush and Dmac were on that squad they would look just as good, if not better. We lack so much vision and execution on this team I actually want to vomit.
For real, no joke!
October 13th, 2009 at 9:08 am
4eva,
I hear you bro. JR looks really bad, but was has Cable done to help him:
1- start 2 rookie WRs, and start Watkins over JLH & Walker!
2- not a lot of 2 TE sets.
3- bad play calling.
4- bad Defense!
FU Cable. You are Fired!!
October 13th, 2009 at 9:10 am
lmao…I hear ya O =)
October 13th, 2009 at 9:10 am
Maclin and Nicks are starting to look real promising.
I guess Craptree will be next.
I hate this team!
October 13th, 2009 at 9:10 am
Anyone knows how to download the new roster on Madden 09 on PS3?
October 13th, 2009 at 9:12 am
Cable has to be the worse play caller In the NFL now. Worse than the guy in Wash.
October 13th, 2009 at 9:13 am
Guys Cable isn’t the problem. He is basically just the messenger. He might decide which play to run at a certain time, but he is restricted to what group of plays he can call. Think about okay. Callahan, Norv, Art, Kiffin & Cable. What sort of dramatic changes have come with each new regime? If you want change then bring back Trestman & put in Gradkowski. The guy was a stud in college and seems to have a lot more heart & fire than anyone else. However it will never happen because Al will not allow it. Taking JR out would mean Al was wrong.
October 13th, 2009 at 9:13 am

October 13th, 2009 at 9:15 am
Henne another Michigan Wolverine.Looks a lot like Brady 2
October 13th, 2009 at 9:19 am
He had a great Oline at college, and he has a good one in the NFL.
October 13th, 2009 at 9:19 am
I saw Hene his whole college career. Has a strong and accurate arm. I use to tell the fellas he was going to be a great pro QB one day because he was not mobile and had to rely on a strong arm and think to make plays. Now in college, these guys suck because when things break down they have to move and in college they love to blitz. OSU killed this guy for 4 years but I knew Henne was a diamond. MI’s system can develop pro QBs.

October 13th, 2009 at 9:25 am
Attention all Raider fans.
Something needs to be done. Al Davis needs to feel what the fans are going through. the only way to do this is through his pocket book. Investors are already complaining. I’m going to send a letter and petition to Al Davis while copying in a few members of the Media. I’m hoping to get out what will be a request for a boycott. I’m a season ticket hold, life long Raider fan and My son’s middle name is Raider. I will always remain a Raider fan but this fiasco call the Raiders is more about Al Davis’s ego and commitment to proving himself right. I believe he needs to return a “commitment to excellence.” If anyone is interested in joining my petition please email me at salves@uniworld.com. More details to follow.
October 13th, 2009 at 9:27 am
Raider O
I sit in the middle of Buckeye land. Until they start playing some real talent and win a bowl game they are F themselves. I support OSU as well and all they want to do is base their whole program on beating MI. MI has not been talented for years. Beat a team like USC, LSU, Alabama, Fl, TX. Tressel is one of the most overrated coaches in football. He wins the games he should win and looses aginst teams that are competitive. The last big win Tressel had was the undefeated season aginst Miami. He did it with another guys recruites.

Henne looked really comfortable out there. Sanchez, Henne, Ryan, and Flacco all coming out of pro systems is a clue to what we need to get done.
But with JR on the untouchable list, oh well!
Just wonder who the interim HC is going to be coming out of the bye week?
October 13th, 2009 at 9:28 am
I like Henne and I like Trent Edwards, but damn… JRs potential is crazy!
The arm
The legs
The size
Too bad there is no results!
October 13th, 2009 at 9:29 am
O,
Not sure if you saw the article on JRuss that Phil Savage had a lot of input on. That article was dead on. It’s on Yahoo somewhere.
JRuss being asked by Cable to run a west coast timing version of the vertical offense is hilarious. The way Phil Savage describes things makes it all come clear. JRuss doesn’t have a chance in Oakland man.
October 13th, 2009 at 9:32 am
CJ,
It’s true bro. Tressel cares more about the MIch game than the entire season. But that’s what OSU want. You can be a winner, but lose a few times to Mich, and they will fire you.
Fire Tressel too!
October 13th, 2009 at 9:32 am
It’s draft speculation time already! Well for years now a few of us here have been saying the problem is the O line and others have hyped the zone blocking success which was short lived, it’s time for the traditional big hogs to be drafted and developed, we need to draft 2 big 3 or 4 year starter tackles from major conferences that played in a pro style system , any of the kids from the top 10 on this list would be good, http://www.draftcountdown.com/Rankings/OT.php
, we drafted 1 good WR in the kid from Florida , if we get another mid round WR from a good major college and draft a quality pair of DT we should be OK and no longer the joke of draft day or game day!
October 13th, 2009 at 9:33 am
O,
Life is good no work man Im taking some time off and getting paid to go to school for a bit good deal actually!!
October 13th, 2009 at 9:33 am
Draft talk ???
All for it.
Oline or LBs ????
Since we have Henderson at LT, I can’t see spending a top 5 pick on a RT.
With that in mind, LB HAS to be our #1 pick. That or DT after we cut Tommy Kelly and Gerrard Warren.
Bit Oline should be our next 3 picks
Rd1 – LB/DT
Rd2 – C
Rd3 – RT
rd3 – RG
Rd4 – LB
Rd5 – LB
Rd5 – OG

You guys should go out and buy a book called “Slick”. You then will know the real story of Al Davis. He is much more of a conman/cut-throat fraud than a football guy. When he says he only care about winning he forgets to mention he only wants to win with his guys doing it his way. If you disregard the Gruden playoff era (2000-2001) since 1986 the Raiders have had 10 different head coaches & 4 playoff appearances over the last 21 years. Just Win Baby??? Are you kidding me? Commitment to Excellence?? More like commitment to doing it Al’s sorry a&& way.
October 13th, 2009 at 9:38 am
Jhill,
Savage wanted JR to play for him in Cleveland!
October 13th, 2009 at 9:38 am
Also please never promise a mediocre OT you won’t draft a OT if he signs with your team. The time for being a player’s owner is over , these over paid non-loyal lazy scared to hit bums are making you the on-going joke of the league , stop over paying for guys who only want your money and nothing else! Yeah there are some external hindrances but they don’t watch every game!

if we spent every one of our draft picks next year on the offensive line…
it would be a good draft…
we proved it this year…
a schitty o-line makes the whole team worse…

just like i said in January…
and we still need them…

we r f’ed up in all aspects of the game qb, oline, dline lbs, special teams. there isnt anybody on the roster capable of returning a kick off beyond the 20. im not asking for a td. just get beyond the 20. well, at least we have lechler. lol

Here’s a take I just thought of, as a possible hmmm…
Al better be careful too about holding on too long cos the Raiders franchise could end up thru abuse relocating after sale to somewhere like San Antonio with a new nickname etc (like the Titans). If Al keeps killing the value and rep of the org like he’s been doing. Maybe that’s his plan…to just totally write it off, so that no one can ever be “the raiders” but himself.
…….
^^^^^ Most interesting comment I’ve read in months!
Are you the same GG from RF.net?
October 13th, 2009 at 10:26 am
They are happy being losers!!
Why was Cable High-Fiving players after that TD when we were down by 21+ points. High Fiving players for scoring a single TD in a blow out!!!! FU Cable!!
Who else will the team they are about to change things, and they are 1-4?!?!
Who in his right state of mind will tell you this team needs to win 3 games cons, when they almost went winless if it wasn’t for KC giving us that game?!?!
FU Cable!!!!
October 13th, 2009 at 10:27 am
The most recent update has Seymour moving from LE to DT in the game….
I know if you are online, select online play, and click around it should indicate that your roster isnt up to date and offer the download.
Huge difference once you dont have Lorenzo Neal
October 13th, 2009 at 10:28 am
r8dr4lfe21,
If LA gets a team, it’s over. Al Davis loses at least 30% of his fanbase. Many Raider fans in LA will stay Raiders, but many won’t, especially if the team is still managed the way it is today. Not all Raider fans are dumb a sses who just put on costumes and don’t care if the team wins or loses. A lot of Raider fans love the game of football and appreciate the object of winning, and if a new team comes to LA and runs their organization in that manner, they’ll jump ship.

You guys should go out and buy a book called “Slick”. You then will know the real story of Al Davis. He is much more of a conman/cut-throat fraud than a football guy.
………..
Read it. Great book. Really details the Wayne Valley situation. Even at the Citadel Al was accused of lifting other coaches’ philosophies and not giving them credit. Chapter about Shanahan was interesting. Al bashed Shanahan in an interview, right after hiring him! Somebody asked Al if he bought into Shanahans’s philosophy of setting up the deep ball with short passes, and using deception on defense as opposed to playing man. Al said as long as he’s with the team they wouldn’t be doing it that way. Why’d he even hire Shanahan?
October 13th, 2009 at 10:29 am
I did that, but it keeps downloading the old 09 roster!
FU Cable!! lol
October 13th, 2009 at 10:31 am
Richochet, Cable got in Hanson’s face, and even that didn’t work. Hanson’s pressing charges. The head coach in Oakland needs to get in Al’s face before anything will happen. Or, at least, have the huevos to run the team the way they feel like running it under Al’s nose, and shunning Al’s advice/threats.

I hear the Dre’ Bly was voted defensive player of the week.
==================
What I saw was yet another example of Singletarys effect on the niners.
You think a single player on the raiders would jump because cable told them to?
After Bly’s comments that “that’s just me. that’s the way I am” he went 180, and made it clear “on this team, it’s not about the player, but it’s about the team. I blew it. I apologize.”
Chilo has played poorly at RT. Singletary got in his face during the game. Stated he’ll likely make changes.
When was the last time Cable got in a players face?
HAS CABLE EVER GOTTEN IN A PLAYERS FACE?
When was the last time Cable went over to discuss a players execution during a game? HAS HE EVER?
Cable might just be worse than Joe Bugel, and no one, even Joe Bugel would think that possible.
As Bugel stated “I make a lousy general, but I’m a great lieutenant”
I think Cable is longing for the days of getting the hell out of Oakland.
Who wouldn’t?
Honestly, is there a worst job in all of sports?
October 13th, 2009 at 10:35 am
If Al Drafts Mays or any other DB next draft, I will lose it! I will always be part of the Nation, but I will not support Al anymore. I used to think you can’t be both, but I’m starting to change my mind.

You idiot. Everytime I think you can’t say something dumber, you prove me wrong.
30% of the Raider fanbase is in LA?
What a dumbass.
Uh..dumbass? prior to moving to LA the Raiders sold out EACH AND EVERY GAME, YEAR AFTER YEAR..after the Raiders left LA, with tail between legs, after failing miserably, those bandwagon fans that jumped on, jumped off and went elsewhere. You stupidly read about a poster saying ‘”we drive up for every game” and think “Oh, I’ll bet a lot do”..except a lot DON’T.
If you didn’t have your head firmly inserted up your ass, you would know that.
Of course, considering that insertion, it means this message is also lost on the “Idiot video game player”
How’s that XS Russell jersey fit?
OH, THAT’S RIGHT..you stated you’re a liar. For two weeks you propped up going with mommy to get your new jersey..
Real: “Going tomorrow everyone”
Real: Leaving now to get it. be back in a couple of hours”
Raiders get their ass whupped..Russell has a 22 qb rating.
Real: “Russell jersey? Oh..I lied. I didn’t really get it”
Yes, LMFAO..at you, peanut.
October 13th, 2009 at 10:43 am
You can download the ‘10 roster for Madden ‘09? Can you do it on X box, too? I like ‘09 better. I think the graphics are a little better and ‘10 just looks cheaper. The graphics seem more animated that realistic, the play calling menu looks cheapened down. The only thing I’ve noticed that’s better is defensive play, gang tackling, etc. Everything else is better on ‘09. They don’t even have complete replays! I’ll go to the replay and most of them start when the play’s half way over. It’s so obvious they cheapened it down. I’m all for struggling businesses cutting back to survive. But titans like EA Sports? Give us something to look forward to in these bad times. Chap bas tards.

Richochit—Cable hasn’t gotten in any players face because he can’t. It’s been known for a long time that whenever a player has a problem with a coach he just goes to Al. It really is like the inmates running the asylum. Zero discipline. If Gannon has said serveral times that whenever he tried to crack down on a player Al would tell him to back off. Majority of players absolutely hated Gannon.

12:21 [Comment From exlaraiderseasonticholder]
Do you agree that a fan rebellion would cause Al Davis to look more seriously at the L.A. Stadium. He would be getting a far better revenue stream.
12:22 Again, the bulk of the revenue generated by the Raiders comes from their guaranteed money from the league’s TV contract. He will be looking at any and all options in the coming months, given their lease with the Oakland Coliseum expires after next season.
12:45 [Comment From Al Davis]
Please send 6 moving vans to Alameda the day after the season ends. I’m going to the L.A. Stadium. I’ll be looking for a training center and a way to stop coughing in the smog that backs up against the San Gabriel Mountains.
12:45 You joke around, but if Ed Roski threw enough money Davis’ way, he would consider moving again.
October 13th, 2009 at 10:46 am
Sorry, that was my bad, the answer is no, there isnt a roster download once the season ends.
They dont offer any support for 09 once 10 comes out and so forth.
Its lame because the only way you can get the current roster is to drop 60 bucks and get the new game.
On a similar note, unlike 08-09, there were almost no changes to the game BUT the roster.
For 2010, there are a lot of changes. You get your money’s worth compared to last years fleecing.

thats the type of coach who has success. gruden would tear gannon a new one everytime he came off the field. unless we scored

========================
That’s true..and I suspect Gruden also knew that, but he didn’t care. You could see the players slowly switching allegiance from Al to Chucky. Many felt that was one of the major reasons Al wanted Chucky gone, and made those statements about ND’s offer to Gruden as why “Gruden lost focus, end of season we lost, and I’m not going to give him the raise he wants”
Cable looks almost meek. Even though everyone knows the players are “Al’s” wouldn’t you think Cable is aware he’s also auditioning for another job? Any other GM/owner of a team watching Cable gets the impression he’s void of thought, emotion, and certainly has zero motivational skills on the sidelines.
And damn..that blank stare? After the other team gets a big play, or scores? Almost zombie like, lol.

Neither of those two put the playes before the coaching staff.
Neither of those two do this to the detriment of creating a circus like atmosphere, and putting a product on the field that has produced 7 losing seasons.

NER: who would you rather have at MLB? Ricky Brown is injured! Jon Alston is starting at SLB.
pick one: Isaiah Ekejiuba (never played 1 snap on defense) or Sam Williams?
I suppose we could also place Brown on IR and activate rookie 4th round tweener Slade Norris from the practice squad. that should help. LOL
October 13th, 2009 at 11:07 am
It aint Russell’s fault yall. He isn’t the problem. If he had an oline and had WRs who werent rookies we would be 5-0 setting offensive records lol. Just wait until Chaz comes back. That is the one guy that will turn this all around

October 13th, 2009 at 11:09 am
Thec………Rey was the only player to change the toughness of the defense. People were telling me during preseason we needed a bigger RDE because T.Scott would get abused well we got Seymour and aint damn thing changed. Defensively the problem is the Al Davis scheme mixed with with being soft up the middle I.E. no NT or MLB. THat is the main problem
October 13th, 2009 at 11:11 am
Gerard Warren and Kirk Morrison as your NT and MLB will lead you to another 10 plus loss season. Remember having Greg Biekert and Grady Jackson? Two slow ass guys that wouldnt allow the Raiders defense to get punked week after week. Al didnt like that because it was his way of playing defense
October 13th, 2009 at 11:13 am
Thank God, Madden, and EA Sports for Madden Football.

Brien: the Raiders have only scored 49 points in 5 games (less than 10 points per game).
we would have scored 149 points if Chaz was healthy. duh, everybody knows that man. He’ll probably only start 9 or 10 games this year and still lead the league in receptions, yards and TD’s. Pro Bowler and potential MVP candidate.
every game Chaz starts will be a win, because of his chemistry with our studly franchise QB.

buy low & sell high. because once Chaz steps on the football field his jerseys are going to sell out fast and i’ll be one of the last remaining suppliers. sell at $250 each.
think smart fellas. think ahead
Chaz is going to give Al Davis the middle finger and will this team to victory each week. I think i might go grab him from the free agent pool in my fantasy football leagues as well. Larry and Andre who?

October 13th, 2009 at 11:37 am
Shillens will be lucky to catch 2 balls this week because we don’t have an offensive line. Russell throws 5 yd dump offs into the dirt at recievers feet, fumbles when the wind blows, looks at one reciever all the way down the field, and is too dumb to admit fault in any of it. If he admitted that he was a fat lazy slacker and needs to up his game a little, maybe his linemen would respect him enough to protect him long enough to throw the ball over Chaz’s head all day Sunday.

Everybody always talks about Russel’s arm strength, but in that San Diego game when he threw that last hail mary pass that was intercepted, I don’t blame him for the interception because hail mary’s are thrown up for grabs, but the thing that disappointed me about it was that the line of scrimmage was the thirty yard line and the ball came down at the fifteen. The ball actually carried about sixty yards. I expected with the supposed great arm strength he has that he could throw it to the end zone and then if by luck one of The Raiders would have caught it, it would have been a game winning touchdown. What good does it do if your guy catches it at the fifteen yard line? I though this great cannon of an arm was suppose to be able to launch it seventy five yards.

Brien, agreed that the NFL is lacking in minority ownership. But it’s Al worshipers pretending Al Davis is the ultimate crusader when it comes to minority rights. Jerry Buss has raised that bar, kiddos. The standard is higher. Why hasn’t Al cut any of his minority former players, coaches, etc. in on the ownership? Why is Tom Flores babbling next to Greg Poppa on Sundays? Why is Art Shell nowhere to be found? Why can’t these guys be cut in? Because Al couldn’t care less about minorities. He cares about his own ego. He used to care about winning, too. But he never cared about minorities. Only needed them to run and catch for him.
October 13th, 2009 at 12:25 pm
It all starts at the top! Al Davis and his cronies are a JOKE!
No GM/Personnel man would still be employed after 7 years of LOSING!
Go away Al Davis!!
Still can’t believe they drafted DHB over Eugene Monroe!
What an idiot Davis and his “scouts” are!
You need to protect your franchise QB and it starts with the O-Line!
FIRE AL DAVIS!!

They are happy being losers!!
Why was Cable High-Fiving players after that TD when we were down by 21+ points. High Fiving players for scoring a single TD in a blow out!!!! FU Cable!!
Who else will the team they are about to change things, and they are 1-4?!?!
Who in his right state of mind will tell you this team needs to win 3 games cons, when they almost went winless if it wasn’t for KC giving us that game?!?!
FU Cable!!!!
^^^^^^^Couldn’t believe Cable actually called an inside counter hand off instead of the typical off right tackle and left tackle running plays that are predictable.

It aint Russell’s fault yall. He isn’t the problem. If he had an oline and had WRs who werent rookies we would be 5-0 setting offensive records lol. Just wait until Chaz comes back. That is the one guy that will turn this all around
^^^^^^^No Chaz certainly doesn’t help…..a banged up and underachieving O-Line playing bad isn’t helping along with a QB who is struggling and with play calling that doesn’t put the players in a position to succeed all equals an offensive team that is destined to be doooooomed!
But the blame for all this comes to the freakin stubborn idiotic owner/GM/personnel man Al Davis!

1. Attention all Raider fans.
Something needs to be done. Al Davis needs to feel what the fans are going through. the only way to do this is through his pocket book. Investors are already complaining. I’m going to send a letter and petition to Al Davis while copying in a few members of the Media. I’m hoping to get out what will be a request for a boycott. I’m a season ticket hold, life long Raider fan and My son’s middle name is Raider. I will always remain a Raider fan but this fiasco call the Raiders is more about Al Davis’s ego and commitment to proving himself right. I believe he needs to return a “commitment to excellence.” If anyone is interested in joining my petition please email me at salves@uniworld.com. More details to follow.

Heres some football talk for you
We cant run the ball
We cant stop the run
We cant pass the ball
We cant stop the pass
We cant tackle
We cant break tackles
Poor coaching if you ask me and I hate to say it
but we need a new head coach with a new attitude who will get rid of the malcontents and at least get us back to 500 ball.
Al isnt going anywhere. A new head coach with permission to kick butt is the best we can ask for and that is not 100% a sure thing.
A new GM taking over may or may not be succesful unless its the Tuna.
I would give Tuna half the team and get out of his way.
Look at what he did the Fins overnight.

Chill the f–k out all you soapbox sociologists. This is still a football site
albeit a bogus one. This Raider meltdown has people fighting and foaming at the mouth. The problems of history and society aren’t going to be solved here or the discussion even give justice. Al did some things, ok so what. A former Raider
player who I won’t name told me that except for a few former players, Al has
pretty much kept many at arms length unlike other teams that bring back their
former players to include them in team activities. I’m not going to get into
the societal aspects but Al is basically about Al. For all the hoopla, hats, jerseys,
and related official team gear Al makes a ton period. What he does with it is just
conjecture here. So back to Football. Al spends millions on suspect players and
coaching. He has ruined the brand and probably cost the net worth of the franchise plenty. So, instead of talking about who did what for who and when,
what about hitting Al where it counts. Boycott the freekin games, stop wearing the gear. Money is the mothers milk of any business so if you want to get the mans attention, hit him where he pays attention. The rest is yakity yak.
October 13th, 2009 at 3:44 pm
I think the best “value” we could get in a trade, when considering everything (our investment in that player, salary, age, his own value, etc.) would be Gregg Ellis.
I bet we could get at least a 4th rounder for him and probably a 3rd, and he could be part of a package that would get more.
We didn’t draft him, we didn’t give him that much money and he is 34 years old. He played well through 4 games, is a great presence in the locker room and tried to convince the young kids how to do things right. But ultimately, that is not the job for one man and he should trade him, IMO.
If the rumor of 5 “untouchable” players is true I would bet in Al’s warped little mind they are: Lechler, Russell, DHB, Mario Henderson and Mike Mitchell

Brien stop whinning, Russell has some growing up to do but I’ve seen much worse trust me. I know for a fact he is putting in the work to get better he’s grown a great deal but he still has a ways to go. You should’ve seen Marcus as a rookie you would’ve hated him. Same with Tim Brown both egomaniacs.
————————————————
bro, shut the hell up and quit protecting russell. The dude cant complete no throws even if he has a good oline and its evident in the realy games of the season. Quit preachin of how russell is still young hes in his rookie year its his fault he didnt go to train. camp because he didnt get his money. Russell has tremendous talent but he just a lazy bum that doesnt care about nothing and care less about this team.
October 13th, 2009 at 3:58 pm
Did Priesttj really say ” You should’ve seen Marcus as a rookie you would’ve hated him”? (Yes he did)
Marcus had 697 yards rushing, 400 yards receiving and 14 TD’s total, in a 9 game strike-shortened season. (Also won ROY)
Project that out to a 16 game season and that would be 1,240 yards rushing, 700 yards receing and 24 TD’s!!!!!!
Yeah I would have hated that, LOL!!!!!
