Lakota,
Disruptive? Not often.
But despite facing constant double teams, he was the NFL’s 14th most productive of all D-linemen, including defensive ends.
Of all NFL defensive tackles, he was the fourth most productive.
Based on production, Tommy Kelly is the best player on the Raiders D-line.
+++++++++++++++
Wait, I thought G. Warren was the one getting doubled…they were not both getting doubled.

Awesome!
I have my chat question all ready to go:
“Jerry, why do you give KrappyKell the special privilege of being able to communicate directly with you? It seems unfair that he gets such special attention, even though he does have the AMAZING ability to remember the Raider won/loss record over the past 7 seasons”.
Can we move this chat up an hour? Let’s get this mother on!

Rich, RRS,
I understand what you are saying about TK. But despite facing constant double teams, he was the NFL’s 14th most productive of all D-linemen, including defensive ends.
Of all NFL defensive tackles, he was the fourth most productive.
Based on production, Tommy Kelly is the best player on the Raiders D-line.
How do you even talk about getting rid of your best Dlineman?
August 11th, 2010 at 11:47 am
it’s not just that Kelly didn’t deserve that massive contract, some feel he didn’t deserve any contract..and he’s proving those nay-sayers right…of which I am one of them.
***
all Al Davis needed was some encouragement from Bill Belichick – who screwed us over on the Randy Moss deal.
I’m sure the opinions of Rob Ryan, Warren Sapp & Ed Jasper probably helped too!
August 11th, 2010 at 11:47 am
TK was so good that they moved him over to NT where he can take on double teams rather than get penetration (he was “productive” at that) and gave his job to Seymour. then signed John Henderson, just in case he didn’t pan out
so far he’s been stonewalled by Loper and overpowered by Veldheer. plus the false starts
August 11th, 2010 at 11:48 am
But you know the Raiders, lol. Always moving guys around. Why in the world would we take our best Dlineman and move him to a brand new position? Guess they think he has WAY more chance to do the job than anyone else? Wow, what a versatile BEAST this TK is. Litterally can play all 4 Dline positions.

Kelly was decent at DE for 3 or 4 years. Might have even been fine at UT with a real NT next to him and an offense that wasn’t so lethargic …
moving him to NT is a mistake though. I don’t think he has the strength, motivation or technique. If Seymour is the new 3 tech, Kelly should take a paycut and be his backup.
August 11th, 2010 at 11:54 am

He may simply be the best man for the job at this time man. But to take it bench him status is crazy to me. Afterall, 4th best DT on the NFL mayne!
I actually thought we would see Shaugnessy-Henderson-Kelly-Seymour with Houston backing up Seymour. But hey, I guess the coaches felt differently.
August 11th, 2010 at 12:00 pm
If you measure greatness by number of tackles then TK might be the 4th best DT…and Morrison would be near the top at MLB too lol
Too bad they don’t pass the eye test…Kelly anchors one of the worst run defenses and doesn’t make many plays…I can’t think of one game changing play TK has made in the past two seasons…unless you count the pants on the ground assisted tackle lol.

August 11th, 2010 at 12:08 pm
You know the Raiders are a lost cause when defensive tackle Tommy Kelly came off the field after making a bonehead play and no one ripped him a new one.
Kelly waddled over to the Raiders bench with seconds left in the first half. He sat down just as Lawrence Tynes kicked a 25 field goal with two seconds showing. It was a field goal made easy after Kelly was called for an illegal roughing penalty for being a hothead with a Giant player..
Bad enough the Raiders already looked hapless, trailing 28-7, but now the halftime margin would expand three more thanks in part to Kelly’s idiocy. But no one on the Raiders bench said of thing. No one of authority. Certainly, not Tom Cable.
I can only imagine how 49ers head coach Mike Singletary would have reacted. He would have probably banished Kelly to the locker room; and told him what it takes to be a winner. But the Raiders did nothing. No wonder they’re bad.

I would be very surprised if we stay in a traditional 4-3 this year very often. Depending on situation, we have a lot to play with in our LB corp as well as athletic tough safeties.
August 11th, 2010 at 12:16 pm
J Wiggle
I see your in here battling as usual, they will never get it man. It’s a waste of time they want the DT to lead the team in tackles while eating uip doubles and sell some popcorn too. They just don’t understand the role……..period
However I must say that I definitely like the move of Seymour to the 3tech because I think he can wreak havoc there. That is most important position in the Dline in terms of versatility. He has to be a great run stuffer and a great pass rusher from the interior. Now what’s better is that Houston can start at LDE and Shanasty at the RDE giving us IMO the best Dline we’ve had since the SB team. That combined with the LB’s makes for a front7 that could rival some of the best in the league.
I remember after reading Mr Davis interview that ’80’s team was picked to finish last in the division they were a wild card team and won the SB. They were coming off 2 years where we weren’t very good at all. And the pundits picked us last. Pastorini as the starter and Plunkett as a washed up backup. But they pulled it together.

August 11th, 2010 at 12:18 pm
Wiggle,
Positive write up on Morrison:
Raiders middle linebacker Kirk Morrison’s season has been washed in invisible ink, leaving him unnoticed and under-hugged.
He hit the 100-tackle mark for the fourth time in his four NFL years, but one must search deep within the team release to read all about it.
His 113 tackles rank third in the NFL, yet no one is breathing a word about him making the Pro Bowl.
So, who out there is willing to give Morrison some love in a 3-10 season? Some of the very players he bear-hugs to the ground.
“I remember when he was just a rookie and he was wild-eyed out there, running around, didn’t really know what was going on out there,” Chargers running back LaDainian Tomlinson said. “Now he’s starting to understand the game and each year, he’s getting better and better.”

Morrison’s biggest problem is he drew a bad four years to play for the Raiders. There’s only so much Pro Bowl recognition to go around in the dregs of the league standings.
Last year, punter Shane Lechler got the team’s lone nod. The two years before that, it was defensive end Derrick Burgess with his huge sack numbers.
Cornerback Nnamdi Asomugha figures to get his first official Pro Bowl invitation (he was named as a last-minute replacement for the 2007 game) when the teams are announced Tuesday.
“You always feel underrated,” Morrison said. “I think it always comes down to wins and losses. Definitely, when you don’t win football games in this league, people don’t look at this kind of stuff.
“People say they don’t know about my tackles. I go out and make tackles. I’m out there every single play. That’s one of my goals, to lead the NFL in tackles.”
Morrison is second in the AFC to Cleveland’s D’Qwell Jackson (130 tackles). Only 49ers linebacker Patrick Willis has more tackles (117) in the NFC.
Best of all for Oakland, Morrison does it all at below-market rates. A third-round draft pick, he makes about a half-million dollars a year to lead the team in tackles on an annual basis.
Morrison’s contract expires after next season. If the Raiders don’t sign the Oakland native to a long-term deal before then, other teams around the league will be glad to kick his tires for a look-see.
“It’s fun to watch Kirk because he has grown and he has just gotten better and better,” said Chargers coach Norv Turner, who coached the Raiders when they drafted Morrison. “He has such a good understanding of the defense.”
Two years ago, Morrison focused on the switch from outside to middle linebacker and quickly made former starter Danny Clark expendable. Last season, Morrison worked on defending the pass between the hashes and had four interceptions.
This season has been about becoming a sure tackler against the run while still dissuading teams from throwing between the hashes.
“He’s been a hell of a football player since we drafted him,” defensive coordinator Rob Ryan said. “He’s intense, he’s a strong tackler this year. I like the way he hits. He’s doing a hell of a job.”
If no one else thinks so, Morrison is fine with it. He’ll always have his fans within the league, from Tomlinson to Ravens linebacker Ray Lewis.
“When I look around the NFL, people will tell me, ‘Hey, you’re a hell of a football player, you should go to the Pro Bowl, I don’t know how you’re not,’ ” Morrison said. “That means a lot to me. When you have your peers telling you things like that, that’s always a good feeling.”

RR what’s up man? I missed you on the last thread. Days going pretty good.
I am getting pumped up to see what the Raiders do this year. I try not to get to optimistic these days. I want to see what we look like live on stage first. But I will say that I enjoyed our rookie class and the team is starting to make sense. The o-line still concerns me and I think we are still to thin With Bush and D-Mac. They both seem to injury prone especially McMuffin. I was hoping we would snag a hard running rookie RB in the draft in later rounds insted of a corner but I like what I am hearing about Walter McFadden and Stevie brown. Aggressive rookies making plays, this could be a sepcial draft class for us.

I am gonna skip this one. I’ll sleep after I see our team show us the fruit.
My Son just started High School FootBall. Day 2, and he is still smiling, says he like to hit people, and throw them around/out of his way. He is not the biggest, nor the meanest kid on the team, but it might not take long for him to et there. He is very comfortable on the field, during drills, team session, and runs with purpose to end practice.
As many of you know I have played HSFB/CFB in the 90’s. Since I even coached on an full-contact leauge in Sacramento.
But this is different, this is my son, I would like for him to be is happy, and healthy. Sometimes I tell him too much, sometime’s not enough. Somethings he has heared 100 times, others words are fresh to his ears.
Tell me NATION, what do you do for your son when he starts HS Football? I’v told him what to expect, an idea of how to handle it. We went out and got all of the right gear n stuff I think, now it is time to strap on his cleats, and GO!
KK, O, RR, Nnamdi, GG, Priest, 408, JB, COW, MR, 24, 4EVA, Jerry Mac, NATION? What do ya say to your son? What do you do for your son? How much is too much? Too little? Just another kid?

Lakota I was never a Morrison hater. He made a # of tackles, I cna recall his ints. I just don’t recall him ever intimidating a team and knocking somebody out. He just did not seem like that intense meet them at the line or behind the line type of LB.
My observation for what it is worth he seemed slow to react or shed blockers from time to time as well.
August 11th, 2010 at 12:25 pm
First Cooper Carlisle was shutting him out of the backfield.

So which is it? Is he a NT trying to occupy blockers, or is he supposed to be rushing the passer?
Make up your minds guys!

August 11th, 2010 at 12:30 pm
CJ Legend,
I agree about Morrison…I was just answering JWiggle’s request for a positive write-up on the guy.
Morrison got a lot of tackles, but outside of a couple picks in his third or fourth year, he really was never a play maker, or game changer.
Same goes for Tommy Kelly. Lot of tackles, few game changing or even drive stopping plays. He wasn’t double as much as some would like to believe, G. Warren was doubled often times and Kelly was free to do some damage…but he didn’t. He is an okay DT, certainly not a below-average player, but certainly not a disruptive force or a player that has earned the right to be among the highest paid DTs in the NFL.
August 11th, 2010 at 12:32 pm
this blog never changes. A few weeks ago we were debating the 3rd string qb and now we are debating a mediocre at best DT.
Thursday Nite cannot come soon enough. Seriously.
August 11th, 2010 at 12:32 pm
Take Kelly and his bloated contract off the team and add an average DT and use the extra money to sign some o-linemen and we would be a much much better team.

Isnt the Pro Bowl largely determined by peer (player) voting? When Morrisons “peers” are saying they dont understand why he isnt in the probowl, its because THEY arent voting for him… cuz he isnt a pro bowl caliber MLB. I would rather Rolando have 60 tackles 2-3 yards out than Morrisons 120 7-8 yds down field.

I agree, but hopefully Charlie Casserly’s pre-draft concerns about McClain are wrong…he said McClain doesn’t shed blockers very well or make many big plays…and he looked slow in his last bowl game.
He is getting rave reviews in camp, so here’s to hoping Casserly was way off the mark.

I know what Lakota is getting at though … he wants to fix the O-Line, as you’ve heard from the past 2 drafts
getting a quality O-Lineman would hopefully help the offense generate more points and the # of rush attempts would likely drop
August 11th, 2010 at 12:41 pm
I find it hilarious that when people criticized G. Warren before last season people in here claimed Warren didn’t make many tackle because he was always doubled.
Now when Kelly is criticized, he is the one always getting double teamed.
LMAO which is it?

TK demands double teams!?!?
If TK demanded Double teams, and so did Warren last year, then that means we had the worst DEs in the history of the game. One of them is not being blocked, but they still can’t make plays. Same for LBs..
Warren & TK are garbage against the run!
August 11th, 2010 at 12:48 pm
J,
You can’t have 2 DTs being double teamed, that leaves 1 OL trying to block 2 DEs!!!
You need better math skills!!!lol
August 11th, 2010 at 12:49 pm
I havent seen much footage of TK, but you have to think, if Seymour can be even a shred as dominant as he was in the 4-3 when New England played him that way, then Kelly might just get the ‘distraction’ he needs to be a real pass rusher
August 11th, 2010 at 12:49 pm
after seeing what Carlisle, Loper and Veldheer did to TK in camp I’m thinking maybe Thec, CJ Legend and myself should go try out for the Raiders o-line …
if those guys can punk the 4th best DT in the league I’d like to test my skills on him too

should we pay more taxes because some of you can’t manage your money!!!???? You want to pay more taxes yohave more benefits, then move to Fing Europe!!
We pay enough taxes to get better services than we are getting, but again, this has todo with the ability to manage money.
The war on Iraq should have paid for a new reformed health plan. Health plan, or war in Iraq. We chose war in Iraq.
F Paying More Taxes!!

I’m guessing it’s the people who *didn’t* choose the war in Iraq who want to tax the rich to pay for health care.

Now when Kelly is criticized, he is the one always getting double teamed.
LMAO which is it?
——————————————————-
RRS, I was on the Warren was getting doubled train. SnB, JFB, and I were reviewing film and they ALL confirmed it was the case.
ROG and the bleacher report guy disagree with me, err the film.
And me saying that was NEVER in defense of Warren at DT. It was always with the intent to point out that Morrison should have been doing MUCH more closer to the LOS since our DTs were occupying THREE blockers!
August 11th, 2010 at 1:05 pm
Didn’t Warren sign with the Pat’s?

So listening to a little right-wing radio on the drive home today, and here Sean Hannity doing a plug for none other than Hillsdale college. Even has a website, hannityforhillsdale.
Was curious if it was the same Hillsdale college as Veldheer and sure as shyt it is. It is considered the “citadel of American conservatism”.
Sure Jered is a crazy right-winger, which might make some people in here not as pro-Jared as they once were.

RRS, I just don’t see why you can’t log on for 5 minutes when you get home so we can settle this.
By the way, was watching the Raiders Steelers replay and I did notice TK getting doubled a lot. Happened to be right after ROG mentioned it.
Matter of fact, let me throw that game on now.

slightly agree with this except in the cases of the extremes,
example, do you think the extremely poor should be made to pay the same amount as the filthy rich??
and what about the people whom inheret all there money and never “earn” a dime of it therefore dont pay that many taxes on it?? is that necesarrily right??

TK: doubled (2 OL)
Warren: Doubled (2 OL)
Seymour: 1 on 1 with LT (1 OL)
Ellis/ Matt S: free to make plays
Do the math Bro!!! You can’t have 2 DTs doubled, and leave the best player 1 on 1!!! Makes zero sense!!! Stop it!!
August 11th, 2010 at 1:16 pm
and what about the people whom inheret all there money and never “earn” a dime of it therefore dont pay that many taxes on it??
*********************************
Problem with that is that the original money was probably taxed twice before it went to the heir.
Once on income tax, second on estate tax (except this year). Than any earnings “earned” by the heir will be taxed again.
Food for thought.

Yes. He’s saying one thing and doing another. He’s NEVER around the Raiders or Al Davis. He visits the Niners more, and he lives closer to the Raiders headquarters.

Do you have proof of this, or is this just your assumption? I mean come on dude, anybody can say anything they want in spite of somebody. Is your hatred for Davis clouding your ability to think logically or reasonably?

So if the Pat’s picked up Gerard Warren then what does that say about Bill Belichik to pick up a guy who sucks that bad.
You can’t have both ways when he’s a Raider he sucks but now that he’s a Patriot he’s much better. Truth be told players ae scuted by different teams all the time and GM’s call each other for trade interest all the time. The Raiders know how well each player is regarded around the league based on that interest.
Al Davis tries to get players from other teams all the time to upgrade his team and he knows who most team sask about. In here we have our favorites but in most cases it’s not even close to what the NFL personnel people think about said player. We’re fans if a guy rubs us wrong he sucks, they see him practice and they see the film.
August 11th, 2010 at 1:20 pm
SDR,
That’s why I said you pay or you don’t. I grew up poor, so I know some people can’t pay taxes, and they shouldn’t. That’s doesn’t mean we can tax the rich more to substitute for others!!

So then why did Madden have Al Davis present him at the HOF? Because he hated him and was just paying him lip service? Seems to me that most HOF’ers have someone present them that they like, somebody that means something special to them, especially for such an honorable event.

By the time the Pittsburgh game came up, I guess we were already into “next year”. Haven’t seen much of Gerrard Warren in this game. Mostly Seymour and TK at DT and they are both getting doubled throughout the game and lining up at NT and 3 tech.
To clarify for the Raider Os of the world, when TK is playing NT he gets doubled. When Seymour plays NT, he’s getting doubled.

No need to get upset or defensive. I am just simply trying to understand your logic. I am not arguing with you. I ask you some simple questions and you don’t back them up, you simply state, “deal with it”, “everyone knows it”. Obviously not “everyone” knows it. I always thought Madden respected Davis based on several facts:
His on the records statements
His on the record appreciation of Davis
Al Davis presenting him at the HOF
To me those are things that if one man hated another wouldn’t happen. In the “real” world most people don’t “pretend” to like somebody, most people don’t associate with others they don’t like.
I hate Osama Bin Laden, if he asked me to present him for the “Strap on a Bomb and Run” HOF I would tell him to go fk himself.
I am just trying to understand your logic and statements, but you still haven’t provided a single foundation based on your opinion. So maybe we should agree to dis-agree that Madden’s hatred for Al Davis is just your opinion?

Thats a common assumption and a right wing way of thinking that ALL people who are “poor” desevere it because they are fat lazy and or stupid.
Trust on this, I’ve known many many many extremely wealthy people who are fat lazy and stupid.
Believe it or not some people actually are poor and suffering thru no fault of their own.
I guess its easier to sleep at night in your mansion thinking those less fortunate somehow “deserve” to suffer.
While we’re at it, the notion that the rich pay 49% of all taxes is Limbaugh/Beck propaganda BS.
In the last 12 yrs at least one of the top ten fortune 500 companies paid ZERO taxes at all…
This is America (at least it was) and it is country OF the people, BY the people and FOR the people, not just for the richest of the rich.
August 11th, 2010 at 1:35 pm
Gerard Warren was doubles on a lot of plays and was very effective in lot of games. Kelly played well but he just wasn’t nearly as disruptive as I thought he would be IMO he’s gotten too big 330 appox. At 305 he was outstanding he’s got long thick arms and a huge upper body. At this size he’s at now LDT is the spot for him and Seymour who is closer to the 305 is much better suited for the 3tech.
The odd guy is Houston with the frame 6′3″ 305 at LDE he is a rare animal a beats if you will I can’t wait to see RT deal with his size strebgth and quickness there is no other LDE to compare him to. Matt S is the prototype rush end 6′5″ 270 he reminds me of Howie Long with better body control.

what the hell is a rolling start (encroachment), he may not be as quick off the ball as Howie was but he is every bit as forceful. I say the kid is a double digit sack artist.

Raider O,
Is there anything you like about people who have less money than you?
August 11th, 2010 at 1:43 pm
Wouldn’t consider myself rich, but I strolled right into that joint with my shirt and tie on and banged out a ten-piece.
Worked at McDonalds as a kid, and can’t shake it. I feign for it like it is crack sometimes.

A little worried about the rest of this preseason. Don’t know if sports bars are going to be able to get different feeds or not.
A real cause of panic in the household right now.

Defense was solid overall JFB ..
Our secondary got beat a couple of times for, you guessed it, BIG PLAYS, but with 13 min left, Pitts only has 10 pts.
Solid effort!
With TK and Seymour getting most of the snaps at DT.
William Joseph was MUCH better than Bryant IMO.

Q: Routt surprise cut you think? 1st and 3rd tender to motivate him..doesn’t look like he’s turning the corner being outplayed by rook’s. no guarantee salary right?
A: Cable keeps talking him up. I consider Routt and Kelly to be the “if wishing made it so” quotes. If he keeps talking about how good they are, somehow they’ll actually be that good. Would be interesting if they go to Al with idea of cutting Routt. On one hand, he’s got the classic size/speed thing going. But on the other hand, he’d save 3.2 mil..

Q: Everyone keeps saying DL starters, kelly, seymour inside, and houston and shaunessy at ends. Why not henderson and kelly inside and seymour houston and shaunessy on outside roation? Also bryant keeps being listed above henderson, from what you have watched do you see the same? Who would you start on dl?
A: This will play itself out as the season goes on. But Henderson, as of now, has not seen much time at all with the first team. I’d be all for playing him in front of Kelly if he’s got a lot left.

Jerry Mac must not be seeing what you’re seeing Jwigg.

how could Henderson play ahead of Kelly starting at NT if Kelly is a Top 4 DT in the NFL ??? is John Henderson one of the Top 3?

“With Ellis having been released over the summer, Richardson will have the opportunity to regain the starting spot he possessed for most of his first two seasons.”

Hookay…Richardson’s there so he may know better but it looks to me like Oaklands drafting of Lamarr Houston in the 2nd round and calling him a DE could mean something else.
Add to that they Hybrid LB/DE combo of T Scott, Q. Groves and Kam Wimbley and I’m not as optimistic as Mr Rich…

August 11th, 2010 at 4:11 pm
Ricochet,
I believe that Al holds Seymour in high regard because he has said as much publicly. His words are there, you can find them if you want to.
Your recollection about Seymour saying that he didn’t want to come to Oakland is suspect. I recall there being much speculation in the media about it, but I would challenge you to show me where Seymour himself actually said something like that. My ecollection is him saying that he was surprised by the trade, mostly because it hadn’t been discussed and because of the timing. There was much speculation that the reason he didn’t show up right away was because he didn’t want to be here, but he himself said that wasn’t the case and had mostly to do with making sure his family was situated before he left to go all the way across the country (on short notice) to play for the Raiders. Now, it may be “obvious” to you that he wasn’t telling the truth, but I’m just going with what he said.
As far as his impact, well, we’ll leave that up to the coaches. Football is a team game, and while one player can certainly make a difference, others not doing their jobs can minimize the effect that even a great player can have. He’s back, and paid well, so somebody must have thought he contributed last year and could contribute this year with a full training camp under his belt.
And finally, if you (or anyone else) has a problem with how Al spends his money, just don’t give him any of yours. Of course, if you’re not giving him any now, then you really don’t have a leg to stand on. But you know your situation better than I do.

Can you see the Raiders keeping JLH, Miller and Ford? And how would you rank the three in terms of practice performance thus far.
Wednesday August 11, 2010 1:51 Guest
1:51 jerrymac: 1, Miller, 2, JLH, 3 Ford (because of injury)
But I think Ford is actually No. 1 because of his draft pick status and his early play.

Hey! There is an Oakland Raiders game in about 25 hours from now! WOOOOOO FRIGGIN HOOOOO! I am absolutely geeked. Luckily, its on TV where I live, so I’ve got my local Raider fan friends coming over for some brews, bowls, and grub to watch the game. Can’t wait to see:
- 1st team defense.. really stoked about this
- Bush getting a heavy dose of early carries
- J Campbell running the offense
- DHB improved, making some grabs
GO RAIDERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Enjoy Plunk, it will be just me, the disinterested wife, and my best friend Captain Morgan.
I can’t wait to see:
-McClain, start the beginning of what should be a wonderful 10+ year in Oakland
-DHB as well, actually look like he belongs on the field.
-Someone not named JLH and Gary Russell returning kicks.
-Seymour almost exclusively on the inside.
-Walter McFadden, who I pray will become our nickle by at least midseason.
-If they actually intend to play a 6′8 rookie at Center.

Let’s do it, need to beat the Cubs tonight.
In the year of pitching, as this year is being deemed, would be interesting if the one real slugging team (Rangers) make the WS or even wins it.
Although Lee certainly balances them out a little, they are still a team of bashers. Hamilton could/should win AL MVP.

So when Bush and the ones are in, who will be the FB, if we even use one.
I am on record as saying that it isn’t all that important, but nevertheless I want someone in there who can do well. Reese probably will get some action, and maybe Daniels?

I’d like to see JLH have a bounce back season. He regressed terribly last year. If he was gun shy from getting his bell run or what, I don’t know.
He was nowhere near the punt return/big play threat he was the year before. When he took 3 to the house.
He should defenitely be pushed by Jacoby Ford.

JLH didn’t want to run up and make the fair-catch, so he just it bounce and gave up a good 10-15 yards in field position, ran straight for the sidelines and was very timid on punt returns.
I found ways to blame other issues on Jamarcus, so I will also chalk up 2009 JLH issues to the purple-drank man as well. And you generally got the field from body language that JLH was not the biggest Jamarcus supporter.
Go get ‘em JLH!!

August 11th, 2010 at 6:37 pm
Cannot believe Raider football, albeit preseason, is less than 24 hrs away. I just hope the Raiders look competitive vs NFC fav’s. I know week one of preseason is usually pretty sloppy. But I hope they look fairly disciplined. Minimal false starts/offsides, etc.
Other than that, a couple of things I want to watch for personally are MM34 getting to hit somebody in anger. Then I want to keep an eye on Bruce Campbell. First look at this guy. Hope he pulls and leads some sweeps.
Those are besides the obvious, debut of Jason Campbell and Ro McClain in Silver and Black.

Shawne Merriman plans to report this weekend
Posted by Michael David Smith on August 11, 2010 7:57 PM ET
The San Diego Chargers are about to get one of their restricted free agents back.
Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Chargers linebacker Shawne Merriman is planning to sign his one-year, $3.269 million tender offer and report to San Diego this weekend.
The question now is whether Merriman can ever regain his form as one of the league’s top pass rushers. He missed all but one game of the 2008 season, and although he started 14 games in 2009, he recorded just four sacks.
The Chargers are still missing two unsigned restricted free agents, wide receiver Vincent Jackson and offensive tackle Marcus McNeill. Neither is expected to report any time soon, and there has bee speculation that both could hold out into the regular season — or even for the entire season.
August 11th, 2010 at 6:46 pm
Hadn’t seen that hit before from McClain.
Now obviously he benefitted from the guy bobbling it, but he was basically at the LOS showing blitz, dropped back, had a great read and instincts, and nailed the WR over the middle.
Can’t wait to see this kid in Silver and Black.
August 11th, 2010 at 6:49 pm
That’s what I think people don’t give McClain enough credit for. He may not be the fastest linebacker in the world in terms of pure speed. But when your read and react skills are as sharp as his, you don’t necessarily have to be. That’s why the Raiders are basically making him the quarterback of the defense.
August 11th, 2010 at 7:00 pm
Nice hit! Cannot wait to see this D in action.
Trying to remember if Capt. Kirk ever knocked anybody the F out.
Nevermind.

Great point HairyBush, Nnamdi21 deserves to win more than anyone I can think of because of his consistant battle to make this team better.
Any player would want to leave a toxic situation that they have come to believe will not get better. But Nnamdi has always hoped for the best and been a very good soldier. Sure they have been times that I thought he whined a bit much but who wouldn’t the wya they were losing he just wanted to do more. It wasn’t selfishly motivated. He just knew that he could help more if they let him. And now he’s getting that opportunity.
Unlike Darrelle Revis Nnamdi waited out his contract and was rewarded very well for doing so.

Jeff Garcia takes the UFL route
Posted by Mike Florio on August 11, 2010 6:09 PM ET
The Omaha Nighthawks have had their eyes on a certain former Raiders quarterback. As it turns out, they’re getting another former Raiders quarterback instead.
Spurned by JaMarcus Russell, the Nighthawks reportedly will be acquiring the services of Jeff Garcia.
News of Garcia’s decision to join the UFL comes from David White of the San Francisco Chronicle. “I was hoping to get back into the NFL this year,” Garcia said. “We had teams that expressed interest, but nobody wanted to fully commit.” (Or, for that matter, partially commit.)
Garcia signed last year with the Raiders, but the veteran eventually requested his release. He later would explain that Russell resisted efforts to assist the first overall pick in the 2007 draft with his development. After Eagles quarterback Donovan McNabb suffered a broken rib in Week 1, Garcia spent a few weeks in Philly.
Despite scattered rumors of a potential return to the Eagles, Garcia had no other serious sniffs during the balance of the 2009 season, or during the 2010 offseason.
It’s possible that a strong 2010 UFL performance by Garcia could prompt a team with needs at the position to give him a shot in December.
Reached for comment, Bengals receiver Terrell Owens said, “If it looks like a Nighthawk and quacks like a Nighthawk . . . .”
(OK, Owens didn’t really say that. Thanks to the inclusion of that disclaimer, only 17 percent of you will believe that Owens said that.)
August 11th, 2010 at 10:01 pm
A little more than a week after wrongly accusing Florida’s Urban Meyer of cheating, first-year Tennessee coach Lane Kiffin has had his own hand slapped … again.
Tennessee plans to self-report a secondary violation, the third one involving Kiffin in the last month, after he mentioned unsigned prospect Bryce Brown by name during a radio show in Knoxville on Friday morning.
Brown is scheduled to make an official visit to Tennessee this weekend and is rated by Scouts Inc. as the No. 2 running back prospect in the country.
Kiffin was talking about the growing trend of high school prospects waiting until after signing day to choose a school and made a reference to “great players like Bryce Brown” while appearing on WNML Radio. Those comments came after the host of the show, Dave Hooker, couched the question by reminding Kiffin that he couldn’t talk about specific recruits.
NCAA rules prohibit coaches from commenting about unsigned prospects, specifically their ability. The other two secondary violations involving Kiffin had to do with simulating game-day experiences while prospects were on campus.
In reporting those violations, Tennessee officials issued letters of admonishment to both Kiffin and recruiting coordinator Ed Orgeron.
Tiffany Carpenter, director of public relations for Tennessee’s athletic department, said this most recent violation will be filed with the SEC and NCAA.
Tennessee athletic director Mike Hamilton said Tennessee will continue to take a “pro-active stance” as it relates to any potential violations, whether they’re secondary or otherwise.
“It’s the sign of an effective compliance program,” said Hamilton, who hired the 33-year-old Kiffin after firing 17-year veteran Phillip Fulmer following last season.
From the day he was announced, Kiffin has seemed to revel in stirring it up.
Last week at a recruiting celebration in Knoxville, Kiffin accused Meyer of violating NCAA rules by calling eventual Tennessee signee Nu’Keese Richardson while Richardson was on his official visit to Tennessee.
“Just so you know, when a recruit’s on another campus, you can’t call a recruit on another campus. I love the fact that Urban had to cheat, and still didn’t get him [Richardson],” Kiffin told a group of mostly Tennessee fans at a breakfast the day after signing day.
Florida athletic director Jeremy Foley immediately demanded an apology, pointing out there was no rule preventing coaches from calling recruits on visits, and SEC commissioner Mike Slive responded by publicly reprimanding Kiffin.
Kiffin issued a statement later that day apologizing, but has indicated several times afterward that he’s unconcerned about what anybody else in the SEC thinks about him.
“There’s nobody outside the Tennessee fans. There’s nobody outside the Tennessee family, and there’s nobody outside this group of players that will ever help us win a football game. So we really don’t care if we offend some people on the way to getting there,” Kiffin said earlier this week while speaking to the Big Orange Tipoff Club.

Colt Brennan is a pure ’slinger, with a slinger’s attitude. He didn’t chalk-up all those college numbers by not having the confidence to pull it off.
Old school QB confidence and ingenuity. Brennan was an excellent signing FOR CAMP. Here’s hoping he shows some magic game time tomorrow…w/short-notice and lack of practice. Another year of marinating (in a good way) might make a pro QB of him.

Very exciting, yes indeed.
How will McClain fare vs athletes as good as him (if not as tall)? How will Houston do vs guys with as much as attitude as him? How will Mitchell do in his quest to make himself noticed?
How will Campbell do? Now that he’s been annointed savior…before he’s officially done anything?
I say Jason Campbell’s got the goods.
If he’s got the receivers, I say Campbell’s got the goods to get this team to 8-8. And if they can get to 8-8, they can get to 10-6…and if they get anywhere over .500, they’ll be in the hunt for the Playoffs.
Jason Campbell might not be THE answer. But…he’s not going to be the problem this year, either.
Better players…better coaches…a better team (we’ll see)…and a better QB (hardly disputable).
Lots to be excited about!
August 11th, 2010 at 11:59 pm
Positives:
DHB improved (still needs to prove it in game)
Jason Campbell (huge upgrade over Purple Drank)
Hue Jackson (do we have a real offense now?)
McClain!
Secondary and the addition of Walter McFadden
Lamar Houston
Negatives:
O-line (still the same cats for the most part, how will they hold up?)
McFadden looking pretty dam injury prone
Same with Schilens, will he hold up?
Question marks:
How will the new linebackers fare against pass & run
Is the retooling of the D-line going to help resolve our run defense?
Injuries (an issue for all teams. man, I hope we stay healthy)

5. The play-calling on offense and defense (new wrinkles)

Last year we played OK against Dallas in the preseason, but we did give up a long TD drive, capped off by (who else) Stanford Routt getting boxed out by Witten for a TD.
Jamarcus and Chaz did look good, but we had a goal to go drive stalled and settled for three.
So this year, need to tighten that up. Hold them to 3, and punch it in ourselves.

Really think it is going to be more of a glorified practice from our standpoint, as well as audition for jobs.

Probably won’t be much but I would love to see ROMAC and Houston body slam someone!!! That would make my night!!!

Former Raiders quarterback JaMarcus Russell appeared in court today in Mobile, Alabama, where a friend attempted to accept the blame for Russell’s July arrest.
The friend, Marcus Stevenson, claimed the illegal codeine syrup found in Russell’s home belonged to him, WKRG in Mobile reports. After making that claim in open court, Stevenson was arrested on a charge of possession of a controlled substance.
But Stevenson taking responsibility didn’t absolve Russell of responsibility. District Judge Charles McKnight said a grand jury will review the case against Russell. Russell has pleaded not guilty to the felony drug possession charge.
Although the testimony of Stevenson seems intended to absolve Russell, the testimony of Mobile County Sheriff’s Corporal Johnny Thornton told a different story.
“There was nine individuals inside the residence. I actually came into contact with Mr. Russell, who was inside the master bedroom in bed,” Thornton testified, per Fox 10 in Mobile. “When I asked him to show me his hands, he complied and I noticed a Styrofoam cup with an orange liquid in it and it looked freshly poured. The cup was on a night stand; still had ice floating in the top.”
Thornton went on to testify that the orange liquid was tested at a lab and shown to include codeine.

If it is anything like I heard, half those people were probably friends of friends that he didn’t even really know.
Dude is obviously done with any type of football career, but now it is time to get his life under control.
Reason no. 20134 why we need a rookie salary cap. If Russell is making Jimmy Clausen money, doubt this ever happens to him.

About the DT’s getting double teamed…
If I recall correctly, it was ususally Tommy Kelly who would get 2 blockers ( and not every down, he’s not that kind of player), but when Gerard Warren was “on” opponents would single block Kelly and double Warren until he cooled off (which didn’t take long).
And that’s because when Warren wanted to, he was a disruptive force, seems like every game there were a few plays where Warren would single handedly break up the play in the backfield, but, as we all know, he was not capable of sustaining that level of play for more than a few snaps.

Finally it’s game day!!
I want to see toughness on D.
I want to see a crisp offense.
Hopefully beginning today, we can let the last 7 years start to fade away.
August 12th, 2010 at 7:24 am
Haha…JFB, do you really have 20133 other reasons why there should be a salary cap?

Andre Smith, lol.
For the record, Lakota (Dakota) followed up his brilliant pandering for drafting Darren with saying we should take Tits Smith.
+++++++++++
I just wanted o-line…never dreamed Eugene Monroe would be available at #7 that year…and we passed on him for a guy that caught 9 passes…and our o-line is still dog schyt…
Should have drafter Monroe in round 1 and Unger in round 2…instead we have a very questionable WR and Mike Mitchell who will have trouble getting on the field with the other two safties we have.
August 12th, 2010 at 7:33 am
Thank you KTLA! Can’t wait to watch the game tonight! Hope McClain looks good.
Hope someone steps up at FB.
Hope DHB catches 3 passes.
Hope Mitchell knocks off someone’s head.
Hope JLH looks more confident than he did last year.
Hope out tackles don’t get Campbell killed.

Rockstar,
I saw your boy John Conner, FB, on Hardknocks last night….looks like the Jets are crazy about him.
Maybe Richardson will be released…

God i hope so…
i think the running game would excel with even a mediocre FB blocking for us

Oh I forgot…
How the OL holds up. The first, second, and third teams too, to see what the depth looks like…The cattle itself and whether the OL coaching is doing anything.
August 12th, 2010 at 8:10 am
Sorry, i pop in and out cos i got some other stuff to do, but come close to game time i’ll be here.
August 12th, 2010 at 8:15 am
Lakota,
That is great and all, and yes the O-line still needs reinforcement.
But you were pining for the biggest flop in the draft, and a guy who needs the Bro.
(Almost as bad as my blind faith for Bruce, lol)
August 12th, 2010 at 8:22 am
Biggest flop in the draft? I don’t know…he played in a playoff game for the Bungholes…DHB caught what, 9 passes?
Only time will tell. Both guys have time to turn it around, and DHB has shown the work ethic to do so…Smith, not so much.
August 12th, 2010 at 8:28 am
he played in a playoff game for the Bungholes…
********************************
DHB “played” in 12 games as well.
Doesn’t mean he helped anything. He didn’t start, so what really did he do? Block on extra-points?
August 12th, 2010 at 8:30 am
JFB,
I don’t think debating the respective contributions to their teams of Hands of Stone or Man Boobs is really worth typing one more word.
August 12th, 2010 at 8:47 am
Word.
We will pick it up next year, when DHB has 6 TD’s and Smtih is going through lapband surgery.
