For as much as many of you hated Kiffin, he was right about bringing Russell along slowly. And he was right about not starting rookie receivers. People see Chaz and Higgins playing well after sitting most of the year and they say “see, should have started them sooner”. MORONS! They played well because they weren’t forced into it and instead were given time to get comfortable. Ocho Cinco even mentioned he wasn’t ready to start as a rookie.

And now we have Murphy, who is the most ready of the 2 rookies, on the bench. You’re a genius Al. Keep it up!

People say the NFL is a business, but the Raiders run it like a Zoo!

Give the fans what they paid for! They deserve a better product!

Al,

You are robbing us with this cr@p product. Lower ticket prices to create more value for your cheap, Crap, disfunctional product.

Put down the crack pipe.

The Bengals are one of the best teams in football.

JaMarcus is more than halfway through his 3rd NFL season. How long does he have to play before he can throw deep passes?

And I dispute this idea that alot of people seem to have that the Raiders don’t run the ball. I think we’re one of the most run-heavy teams in the NFL in terms of run/pass percentage of plays. Which is incredible when you consider we’re usually trailing and in a must-pass mode. The reality is — as Michael Bush pointed out — you can’t run the ball every play. You have to mix it up. You absolutely have to pass successfully in the NFL. We have just had ZERO passing attack all season.

My biggest gripe with JaMarcus isn’t even the inaccurate throws. Some of his throws, yes, have been horrendous. But many of those throws could have been caught if the WR made a better adjustment on the flight of the ball or basically just caught it when it hit his hands. The bigger problem is the lack of throws to the WRs. JaMarcus just can’t pull the trigger on throws to the receivers. That’s a problem. This is the NFL, guys aren’t going to be running 10 yards in the clear much. You have to be willing to throw it to a guy when he has 1 step on the defender and you better be damn accurate when you do. JaMarcus doesn’t make those throws. He’ll stare down one receiver, almost never get comfortable that the guy is open enough to throw it to, and then check down or get sacked by the time he decides to check down.

I still think JaMarcus could be salvagable. His struggles really have nothing to do with his weight or anything like that. It’s all about mechanics (accuracy) and having the confidence to get the ball downfield to WRs.

It’s 4 rookies, a very young QB who lacks exp, bad Oline, and a Defense that can’t stop the run trying to compete in the NFL.

This Is A Joke!

And according to a lot of reports, he has bad Work ethics.
