Seymour, Gallery absent
By Jerry McDonald - NFL Writer
Friday, September 17th, 2010 at 10:57 am in Oakland Raiders.
Defensive tackle Richard Seymour and Robert Gallery were not accounted for as the Raiders began practice Friday, an indication that both players could be inactive because of hamstring injuries against the Rams Sunday.
Also missing was wide receiver Chaz Schilens (knee) and cornerback Walter McFadden (hamstring).
Safety Hiram Eugene, another player listed with a hamstring injury who was limited Thursday, was going through warmups with his right calf wrapped.
Running back Michael Bush, limited for the padded practice Thursday, was on the field.
Familiar face watching practice _ former Tampa Bay Buccanneers and Denver Broncos safety John Lynch. He’s doing color commentary for the Fox broadcast (blacked out in the Bay Area).
No, Lynch was not yelling out “Sluggo Seam!”
More to come . . .

The Raiders should right the ship this weekend.
They’re better than what they showed last Sunday.
Look, even when Russell was in there in last year’s opener, these guys were fired up. Henderson-Gallery-Morris-Coop-Cornbread were mauling SD’s front.
The only reason we stayed close is because SD was physically outmatched and our D was flying and the O was doing just enough with some good running from DMC and Bush and a a big play from Murphy (really two, but we won’t go there).
As soon as they went soft and started ‘thinking’ out there, SD gets a way-too-easy late drive to win.
We scrapped in the 1st KC game despite looking very ugly.
We scrapped in the 2nd KC game and nearly won (lost on a great Bruce pass that clanked off the hands-like-feet of DHB), even with Russell playing the 1st half.
We beat the Eagles. We beat the Steelers. We were competitive for 3.5 quarters against the Ravens.
This team can play.
Getting rid of Russell was addition by subtraction.
As ridiculous as it may sound, the pummeling we received at the hands of the Titans could be the best thing to happen to the 2010 Raiders.
They read too many press clippings saying the Silver and Black were back.
They were humbled.
Now, they’ve got a home opener against a weak(er) opponent and can get to 1-1, making it a 14 game season.
Just a little momentum is all a team needs.
The snowball effect can work either way…..

I’m sure Cable was ready to roll with the winner of Bruce v. Frye (AKA Alfred) in camp and Al interjected. Couldn’t roll with the short guy with the ‘weak’ arm.
Brought in a redemption project with the physical attributes he’s enamoured with.
Campbell looked good in preseason, even with protection breaking down.
I’m not willing to call him Batgirl just yet, but he’s definitely Robin.
September 17th, 2010 at 11:05 am
Dare I say this weekend we have a true NT start? Kelly plays UT spot as he should? Big John in the house? Too good to be true

Mario is also a worm. On that fumble he just watched. The ball was at his feet!
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
What?
Henderson made the touchdown saving tackle.
By accident of course, the recoverer actually ran into his legs while Mario was staring into space.
It took a trip to the replay booth to show that he had been touched while on the ground, or more accurately, ran into henderson’s socks while on the ground.

RNO i wasnt pleased either with that play…..instead of heart I was wondering was he stupid
*******************************************
Thats what I’m saying! either he is heartless or retarded. Either way I don’t like any of these qualities in my QB. Its easier to be mad at him for haveing no heart. If he is just stupid then I feel sorry for the guy. Stupid is as stupid dose.
Mario should of fell on that fumble like it was a hot brownie with ice cream on top.

In Henderson’s defense, the Titan’s were constantly over the line ahead of the ball being snapped. A good head coach would have gotten that stopped.
=================================================
That’s why Cable is the Captain of the Timeouts and Bearer of the Red Flag.
Al couldn’t get a direct line to the refs. The Red Phone was disconnected.

LA To TheBay post 4. I agree. Davis revealed his feelings for Campbell with the Plunkett comment. I’m convinced he was behind it. Another hint was that JC said his understanding is that he was coming here as the starter. The coaches quickly said ‘no, it’s a competition’. Then came the Grads muscle tear and probably a call from upstairs and suddenly, surprise, JC is the starter. The muscle tear was just an excuse though. You don’t declare a winner based on injury.

The key to Sunday’s game needs to be establishing the run early. Cable has issued the challenge to his guys; he came right out and told the Rams they will be running the ball, and the OL needs to execute. With Henderson, Loper, Veldheer, Carlisle and Walker they should be able to push open some holes on any defensive line, that is a HUUUUGE O-line. If they can get McFadden loose early and often it will set up much easier play-actions and screens later in the game. Our problem in Tenn. was we came out slinging and the D-line (with help from the noise and refs) was looking for the screen and lived in our backfield the whole game. Once they got the lead, then they knew we were passing, so the pressure was even fiercer. Got a keep them hesitant with the run, from the very first offensive snap. Whether or not the line can produce remains to be seen. Even in garbage time last week, the offense failed to do much of anything. Hopefully that is something they can fix, but I am on the record as saying this will be a low scoring Raiders LOSS.
I predict a score of 13-6 Rams, Cable spins his post-game press conference as the Raiders D was so stout, and the offense is “figuring some things out”, Cable gone after week 4 with little fanfare and no overhead projecters, and Hue Jackson opens week 5 with a loss.
September 17th, 2010 at 11:15 am
If Cable said we are going top run it, then the first play of the game will be a bomb to DHB weather he is covered or not, incompleat.

I agree. I sure hope Spag does like Andy Reid and keep throwing.
I suspect we have the rookie hitting the turf quite a bit in this game.

————————————————-
With some renewed confidence in DMC, even if Bush doesn’t take the field, I think we can get something going.
The passing attack should consist of quick-hitters and the occasional deep shot. Our athletic TE and FB need to get the ball waaay more than last week.
We all know what happens on game day though. Al would rather lose trying to stretch the field and play man free than win dinking and dunking and playing zone blitz.
I figured after the whole Russell debacle, Cable woulda been in his ear more, like Chucky was able to do.
We’ve at least got guys that wanna be here. Decent lockeroom right now. Just gotta scheme better. I thought that’s what Hue was for??

And he is a ghost of his 08 self, when he was Pro Bowl PR material

Post #1, thanks LTTB, that was a good post, and I agree – The Raiders are a better team than we saw last Sunday.

So im pretty sure Hue Jackson said were coming out throwin the ball down the field….Why?? If Mcfadden is workin let him run give him more touches
September 17th, 2010 at 11:34 am
Lowered Expectations, but I didnt see much going on with that offense, even after it was 31-3 and the Titans defense had stopped caring (and stopped jumping offsides). They seemed pretty dynamic in the pre-season, but if that was just a mirage then this could be another long season.
There are just so many stories out there now about how crappy Campbell is gonna be for us. Before the season it was all about how he was an instant upgrade over JR, now all the writers are jumping on the “all he does is checkdown” bandwagon. Having never watched a Redskins game myself, since Jason joined the league I have to trust the opinion of others, and there are too many mixed signals out there. If he is the next Plunkett, somebody on the coaching staff needs to get him loose and mentally ready to air it out. Even Al won’t stick with JC for long if he WON’t make the long throws, despite having all the physical tools to do so.
September 17th, 2010 at 11:35 am
Yeah well JLH a catch and a completion last week in limited time. Last year when they played him and threw to him he did fine. JLH the man and he damn sure showed in preseason he ready now if only Hue wakes up
September 17th, 2010 at 11:38 am

Rams Defense is comparable to the Eagles Defense with their overload blitzes.
This could be a good thing, after all, we had success against the Eagles last year.

We can’t get anyone now it is to late but we should have pulled the trigger early in the off season. No confidence in these WRs. JLH has the best hands and Chaz has great hands but no health.

Still cheaper than the south where the demand is higher out there.
September 17th, 2010 at 12:17 pm
No Purpledrank!!!
Jerry and this blog jumped all over Campbell last week for checking down aginst Titans. I think that is crazy! You have to check down when you are being blitzed. They said we did not have the type of WRs to checkdown with. WTF, does that mean? Manning checks down every Sunday. You better have a QB and WRs that know how to check down this is the NFL. Youwill get killed going deep every play.

_______________________
Considering J-Camp has a natural tendency for checkdowns and screens, this could be a good scenario.
The worst that could happen is if the Rams get good pressure rushing only four, leaving seven men in coverage. If such is the case, we must run the ball.

Agreed. The Titans were getting away with some holding.
It reminded of the Raider vs Niner preseason game. The Niners were getting away with holding early on and late.
If the opposing teams O-Line is getting away with holding, than Cable needs to be jumping all over the refs about it from the get go.

Seymour should play Defensive end. Starting front four should be
Houston/Shaughnessy-John Henderson-Kelly-Seymour.
Now that would stop the run!
And get pressure on the QB. Remember last year’s season opener against SD? Seymour sacked Rivers twice.

Houston/Shaughnessy – Henderson – Kelly – Seymour.

So, what’s the deal with NFL Red Zone this weekend? I’ve heard from several folks that the entire game is going to be NFLRZ, on Comcast. But, that can’t be right.
^^^^^^^
Nope…NFL Red Zone will only show highlights, big plays, and red zone plays of the game.

Who? Who is Chaz Schilens? When did we sign another WR?

On the whole checkdown thing…..
No QB faced more pressure this week than Flacco did on Monday night.
The only time they had any success was throwing it deep. Let your WR go up and make a play in single-coverage or draw a penalty. He tried to check-down to no success and almost got Ray Rice killed once.
Big blitz = find the one-on-one coverage and go down the field.

The Raiders should right the ship this weekend.
They’re better than what they showed last Sunday.
Look, even when Russell was in there in last year’s opener, these guys were fired up. Henderson-Gallery-Morris-Coop-Cornbread were mauling SD’s front.
The only reason we stayed close is because SD was physically outmatched and our D was flying and the O was doing just enough with some good running from DMC and Bush and a a big play from Murphy (really two, but we won’t go there).
As soon as they went soft and started ‘thinking’ out there, SD gets a way-too-easy late drive to win.
We scrapped in the 1st KC game despite looking very ugly.
We scrapped in the 2nd KC game and nearly won (lost on a great Bruce pass that clanked off the hands-like-feet of DHB), even with Russell playing the 1st half.
We beat the Eagles. We beat the Steelers. We were competitive for 3.5 quarters against the Ravens.
This team can play.
Getting rid of Russell was addition by subtraction.
As ridiculous as it may sound, the pummeling we received at the hands of the Titans could be the best thing to happen to the 2010 Raiders.
They read too many press clippings saying the Silver and Black were back.
They were humbled.
Now, they’ve got a home opener against a weak(er) opponent and can get to 1-1, making it a 14 game season.
Just a little momentum is all a team needs.
The snowball effect can work either way…..
…………………………….
YOU ARE A F’N LIAR!!!
THEY WERE NOT “THINKING” TOO MUCH ON SD’S WINNING DRIVE. THEY WERE IN AL’S INFAMOUS PREVENT DEFENSE. SD ONLY NEEDED A FIELD GOAL AND WE WERE IN A PREVENT JUST LETTING THEM MARCH DOWNFIELD. IT WAS THE WORST DEFENSIVE STRATEGY EVER, AND ITS ONE AL DAVIS HAS DIED BY FOR YEARS. KEEP LYING

Al’s not to blame for the weather. Just for the Raiders losing year after year. He’s the worst owner in football, the worst GM in football, and perhaps the single dumbest decision maker on any pro sports team. That’s all we blame him for, ok? You little baby.

The only shot the Raiders have at success is not to outscheme or outsmart anyone. I was hoping Hue would make us cretive offensively.
Doesn’t really seem like it, but it’s early.
To win, we have to use the tried and true Al Davis method, and I mean that feciously (MR), meaning we have to beat up the guy in fromt of us and win one on one matchups.
Play physical for 60 minutes, no letting up.

Jamarcus seemed to be at his *AHEM* best on 4th downs and last-second drives.
We should have just told him that California was in Canada and we have to play by Canadian rules, therefore, 2nd down is 3rd down, and 3rd down is 4th down.

The Denver drive was aided by a 40 yard PI penalty when Russell sailed it about 10 yards over the head of Murphy.
But at least you could count on him chucking it down the field. Couldn’t count on much success from it, but I never though I would say this, Jason Campbell could take a lesson from Jamarcus in this regard.

He had a bad one on the 1st drive coming in cold off the bench. But he deserves a lot of credit for the last drive. He was under constant pressure on the road against Denver’s front four and throwing against seven guys. He took a lot of hits but kept getting up and making big plays. Look at the supposed next great QBs like Matt Ryan and Mark Sanchez in week one. Both had chances to win the game on the final possession and pissed down their legs. JR did it on multiple occasions with the Raiders. I’m just saying you shouldn’t get caught up in the “addition-by-subtraction” and “leadership qualities” cliches the media is always selling.
