Raiders enjoy role reversal
By Jerry McDonald - NFL Writer
Sunday, October 24th, 2010 at 8:01 pm in Oakland Raiders.
It was the 100th meeting between the Raiders and Broncos, and to celebrate, it looked for a time as if the Raiders were looking to celebrate by scoring 100 points.
The Raiders experienced life on the other side Sunday, throwing the knockout punch instead of absorbing it as they have so often in the last seven years.
They liked being Foreman a lot better than playing Frazier.
“The offensive linemen, their eyes were like this,” defensive tackle Tommy Kelly told reporters, making huge circles with his fingers in the aftermath of an unfathomable 59-14 beat-down of the Broncos in Denver. “Big. I told Big Rich (Seymour), `If we score one more time, they’re going to quit.’ And that’s how it played out. It was 14-0.
“After the offense rolled down there and got that next touchdown, you could see it in their eyes. I’ve been on the other side, so trust me, I know what it looks like. They were like, `What the (bleep) is going on?’ And they didn’t recover. We kept our foot on the gas. I’m happy about that.”
Cornerback Nnamdi Asomugha concurred.
“Most guys looked like they were beaten,” Asomugha said. “In the fourth quarter, you could tell that we had imposed something on them that they had never seen before, and they weren’t used to. That’s good. There’s times in the pas where we’ve been on the other end of it and to see another team going through that made us feel like we’ve arrived.”
More news, notes, quotes (provided by the Broncos and those in attendance) and observations from the most remarkable Raiders win in recent memory:
– Raiders coach Tom Cable spoke directly to the fans when he arrived at the podium for his postgame press conference.
“Raider Nation, hear me, I hope you get this, we need you in those stands supporting us,” Cable said. “We need to have a great twelfth man from here on in because we’re doing our part and it’s coming together.”
There’s still that issue of not having won back-to-back games since the close of the 2008 season _ the only time in Cable’s 12-23 tenure that it’s happened _ but the coach vowed there won’t be a swoon of the sort that came in San Francisco after the win over San Diego.
“We’re not going to let down,” Cable said. “We learned a lot, we’ve been learning a lot, and we’re moving forward. We’re not going to let down. We’re going to go after this.”
– If the stock market ever had a three week period like Jason Campbell’s quarterback rating, people would have been jumping out of windows only to realize they would have been rich again the following week. Campbell completed 12 of 20 passes for 204 yards with no interceptions and a pair of touchdowns, a 43-yarder to Zach Miller against a blown Denver coverage and a 19-yard pass to Darren McFadden.
To review, Campbell had the second-highest rating of his career, 117.6 against San Diego, followed by the lowest of his career. 10.7, against the 49ers, followed by the highest of his career, 127.9 against the Broncos.
“Last week I came out playing extremely hard early on but sometimes things don’t go right because we got only field goals, and you start to press a little more, and you just can’t do that in the NFL,” Campbell said.
Regarding his sore left knee, Campbell said he wasn’t sure if he’d be able to play Wednesday, had a slight improvement Thursday, then felt much better Friday.
– The last time McFadden broke into the clear as much as he did against Denver, he wound up tying up like a 400-meter runner, getting run down from behind and suffering from turf toe the rest of his rookie season.
Not so against the Bronco, as McFadden had a career-high 165 yards on 16 carries and scored four touchdowns, three on rushes one on a reception.
McFadden’s 57-yard touchdown run surpassed the 50-yard burst in his second game against Kansas City, when he rushed for 164 yards on 21 carries. He didn’t score on that run, however.
For the last two weeks, McFadden has ben out with a right hamstring injury, and on Wednesday, said he was 70-30 to play _ not exactly a sure thing when considering most players say they’re raring to go even when they’re aren’t.
“It’s something that you just try to block out of your mind and go out there and play ball,” McFadden said. “I just wanted to come in and pick up where I left off.”
Even with the two missed games, McFadden has a career-high 557 yards rushing after getting 499 last 357 last season and 499 as a rookie.
For any of you thinking of dropping me an e-mail for fantasy football advice, I offered the expert opinion this week to one fantasy site this week that McFadden would probably play a secondary role to Michael Bush, given that he has been out two weeks with a hamstring injury.
– Hue Jackson said Thursday his biggest issue with the game plan in the loss to the 49ers was execution, not play-calling.
Jackson got more execution that he could have imagined against Denver, but he also had a much more creative game plan. He called for reverses at the right time, implemented a read option series that was seen during minicamps but hasn’t been used extensively during the regular-season, and generally had the Broncos confused and off-balance all day.
He even had an unbalanced line that had Miller essentially playing as an uncovered tackle.
The Raiders broke some of their own tendencies, running out of passing formations and vice-versa.
“They did a lot of things that were new for them this week,” Denver coach Josh McDaniels said.
The offensive coordinator learned a few lessons the hard way last week and aced his test today.
According to Campbell, Jackson also helped ease his mind with a phone call to his home Friday night.
“He said, `J, in order for this team to go where we want to go, you need to be great,” Campbell said. “Not just good, but great. But just play the game _ don’t worry about being perfect. Sometimes you feel like you’ve got to be perfect on every throw.
“Just let all that go and play the game. Let the game come to you and make some throws. Make some throws, miss some throws but don’t feel like you have to be perfect.”
– McDaniels was so complimentary to the Raiders all week came off as insincere and were used as motivation by the Raiders offensive line.
“Some of the comments their coach had made, he was trying to floff us up during the week about last year how physical we were,” left guard Robert Gallery said. “There was some sarcasm in some of those comments. We knew we had to come out, do our thing and show them. We did that.”
– Cable talked at length Friday about the Raiders’ problems with turnovers being a lack of aggression. Nickel back Chris Johnson responded in a positive manner immediately when he stole a Kyle Orton pass and returned it 30 yards for a touchdown for a 14-0 Raiders lead just eight seconds after the Raiders had scored on a 43-yard Jason Campbell to Miller pass on the opening drive.
It set the tone for the rest of the day.
“I saw Orton looking the whole time, I didn’t think he was really going to throw it and when he threw it, I said, `Well, this is going to be the first (touchdown) of my career,” so I jumped it and took it to the house,” Johnson said.
Said Johnson: “We feel that if we get up and press you, do what we need to do, there aren’t too many people that can mess with us. They have a great receiving corps and if you play off them and give them time, they’ll kill you. So we said at practice we were going to be aggressive with them. The D-line got a couple sacks and we got a pick so it all worked out for the best.”
– Oakland’s quick lead provided the spark the Raiders needed to follow through on a promise by the defense to take matters into their own hands.
“We didn’t want to let an offense dictate what we were going to do; we were going to dictate to them,” Mitchell said. “And I think we did that from teh very first snap to the last snap. We put pressure on the quarterback. We got hits on him. We didn’t let him get comfortable.”
Unlike Kelly and Asomugha, Mitchell said the Broncos didn’t cash it in.
“They never quit this entire game,’ Mitchell said. “We had a great game plan for them and we able to just pour it on them. But did they ever quit? No. (Knowshon) Moreno’s a hell of a running back and he kept going the entire game. You could see it, even at the end, trying to get touchdowns, trying to get yards. We had to keep it up the whole game.”
– Samson Satele left the the game with a concussion, which meant that Jared Veldheer, who helped open some gaping holes for McFadden, moved to the middle after starting at left tackle. Wide receiver Louis Murphy re-injured his clavicle, and wide receiver Darrius Heyward-Bey started the game but didn’t play long because he was “ill,” according to Cable.
Return specialist Nick Miller got his first playing time as a wide receiver and snagged a perfectly thrown 32-yard pass from Campbell in the second half for his first professional reception _ just a yard shy of Heyward-Bey’s longest catch.
“It felt good, man. It felt good,” Miller said. “It’s unfortunate that guys had to go down but I had to step up and it felt good to be in there.”
– McDaniels seemed to realize the Broncos had lost more than just a game. It was a defeat of historical proportions in a 100-game rivalry.
“You get one chance a week to put our name on something for the three hours we play and coach on Sunday, and our name is going to forever be put on this game,” McDaniels said. “None of us are proud of it, but we’re a part of it, and those of us who are a part of the problem will have to be part of the solution.
McDaniels said, “I apologize to Pat (Bowlen), the organization, the fans, everybody else. That was awful.”
– The Raiders were 5-for-6 in the red zone after coming up empty twice last week against the 49ers. They also recovered their only fumble (they’ve had 17 fumbles this year and have lost only two _ must be that recovering-their-own-fumbles drill).
– I’ve long maintained that while penalties are annoying, they were never the difference when the Raiders were good. They’re only the difference when the Raiders are bad.
Submitted for evidence _ the Raiders had 10 penalties for 94 yards against the Broncos and won by 45 points. They lead the NFL in both penalties and penalty yards.

Jerry,
When was the last time a team scored 59 or more? On the road no less!
RAIDERS!!!!!!!!!!!!
October 24th, 2010 at 8:04 pm
Good to be on the right side of the beating. I much prefer being the doer as opposed to the doeee.
October 24th, 2010 at 8:06 pm
Jcampbell while tons better than last week, still didn’t give that commanding image of a leader. He’s still throwing softballs when fastballs are in order.
Let’s continue to see more of NMiller. When he plays we win. Need I say more?
October 24th, 2010 at 8:07 pm
I would have paid money to be in McDaniel’s news conference today.
October 24th, 2010 at 8:11 pm
I think you can plot our fate the remainder of our year offensively based on the strength of the d-line we are playing:
Tennessee – great defensive line
St. Louis – small defensive line – non dominant
Arizona – great D line
Houston – great Dline
San Diego – not so great D line
SF – good defensive line
Denver – mediocre D Line
October 24th, 2010 at 8:18 pm
That was the most fun I had as a Raider fan since the Titans game of 2002. I think this was better because of the last 7 years. Both lines were awesome today. Veldheer was very good at run blocking.
October 24th, 2010 at 8:22 pm
What was up with that orange Darth Vader thing today? That was rediculous. That Bronco fan should be embarrassed.
October 24th, 2010 at 8:24 pm
2 teams that I dont want Gruden to go to: Denver and SF.
October 24th, 2010 at 8:26 pm
Wake me up!!! I would of never believed that this team would ever score that many point!!!! unbelieveable, but I will take it. let’s hope they can spring board off this win and make a season of it.
October 24th, 2010 at 8:26 pm
Man I wish we had taken Harvin over DHB… I still have faith he can be productive but man Harvin is a playmaker!
October 24th, 2010 at 8:28 pm
McFadden looked like a BEAST today. Stepping out of leg tackles, exploding through the hole and stiffarming to get separation. Our offense has a completely different feel with him in there, we are finally seeing that “home run hitter” ability that Cable has been talking about for years. Veldheer needs to clean up the false starts but he is showing that he can block at the NFl level….would have been nice to see Bruce Campbell in there a little bit. Mitchell is starting to prove people wrong. Routt and CJ played well, but they were helped by a few non calls that would have been flags in recent weeks, good calls or not. Seattle will not be looking past us, but the Black Hole better be crazy on Halloween. Go Raiders! Best day in 7 years!
October 24th, 2010 at 8:29 pm
VICTORY!
Best game ever!
October 24th, 2010 at 8:29 pm
Had to pinch myself on multiple occasions! Still wasnt blown away by Campbells performance. Had some inaccurate throws, almost got Millers head taken off and besides for two lobs, was once again unable to find his wide outs. I dont want to take anything away from this glorious occasion on the Lords day; just dont want to see what happened in SF happen again. Bruce Bruce Bruce.. Raiiiddeerss!! How bout my boy Mike mitchell, helluva game!
October 24th, 2010 at 8:31 pm
a performance like this only makes last week’s perplexing and terrible showing that much more frustrating. not to mention teh lost game against arizona. 3-4 could conceiveably be 5-2. an ugly 5-2, but 5-2 nevertheless.
the fact that we didn’t have a repeat of the mile-high mooning from tommy boy was a bonus as well. i still wake up in cold sweat cluching my pillow while wimpering softly in the middle of the night because of it.
October 24th, 2010 at 8:33 pm
Carl Weathers, the Bengals scored 58 in 2004 against the Browns.
October 24th, 2010 at 8:36 pm
I heard on the radio broadcast that Heyward-Bey got sick during the first quarter today.I can understand.He has been making me sick all season.Maybe he watched some of his game tape in the film room before the game.That would do it.
October 24th, 2010 at 8:36 pm
Yes “Orange” donkey was a joke, but then again what do you expect from a Denver fan. LOL.
October 24th, 2010 at 8:42 pm
I watched ESPN after the game, and I thought Tom Jackson was going to burst out crying. It was great!
It was also great to see the Raiders running misdirection and blitzes. It’s the key to winning in th NFL.
October 24th, 2010 at 8:42 pm
Can’t wait to see this Orange Pony asswhoopin on the replay on my DVR again tonight.
A great overall coaches and player TEAM win!
Need to get that 2 wins in a row at home versus the Sea chickens next week before facing the queefs!
Have to win 2 out of the next 3 before the bye and one of those wins was taken care of today.
October 24th, 2010 at 8:44 pm
Yeah….FINALLY they run MISDIRECTION plays and BLITZ more from different angles.
Luuuuuv seeing Run DMC shut you haters up….AGAIN! LOL
October 24th, 2010 at 8:45 pm
I dont think DMC has too many more haters on this blog. Now all we can hope for is DHB coming out of nowhere in his 3rd season also…
October 24th, 2010 at 8:49 pm
DMac: I didn’t want Oakland to draft you.
For your first two seasons, I kept harping on what a mistake drafting you was.
This season, I’m eating crow. It’s delicious.
Please keep serving it up.
October 24th, 2010 at 8:55 pm
Damn the chiefs!
We really gotta beat the squawks!
October 24th, 2010 at 8:55 pm
I will again and until the end of the year call out all u DMac haters and ask u fools to be men and apologize for your ignorance about a runner who can argueably be call one of the top five RB’s in the league!
October 24th, 2010 at 8:56 pm
Just got off the phone with TC. Had to congradulate him on that victory. He was pretty pumped up. Said he’s never had to manage adrenalin like that before. Didn’t know if he was going to make it there for awhile.
I asked him ‘what the heck is goin on? 59 points? Clue a dude in man.’
Said after Als’ ass reaming last Sunday night, and monday, he made the team watch the niner game two times a day til thursday, then once on friday. Not only that, he and hue and jim put on pads this week and started knocking guys around. Said it wasn’t pretty, but it worked. Said there was some blows with some of the players, but asked me not to say who it was.
I told him I knew of Als’ ass reaming, and he agreed that was pure genius.
Tom told me he almost jumped off the gate last sunday, but herrera reminded him they had a dinner engagement at a local establishment and that Beyonce http://www.beyonceonline.com/us/home was going to be there.
I told him again, great win and he asked me if I wanted to join him and some of the coaching staff for sushi late tonight, but said I can’t. Wished him luck against seattle and he said hopefully luck is out the window. You just saw what this team can do.

I’ve never been so happy to eat my own words! CJ37 still sucks though.
I was really happy to see MM34 play so well. The way he and Seymour teamed up to lawndart Moreno was freaking awesome!
I can’t wait for Haloween now. GO RAIDERS!
October 24th, 2010 at 8:58 pm
Great Game! I stayed up all night watching it till about 4AM my time. Donkey fans won’t be talking trash anymore, just like the Sparklers. Second in the AFC West! How do you like the sound of that?!
October 24th, 2010 at 8:59 pm
We finally have a legit threat at the RB position. We haven’t had this since M Allen/B Jackson.
DMAC is huge………VERY big! I guarantee you DMAC is a threat to a defense like LT and L Johnson have been to us over the years.
October 24th, 2010 at 9:01 pm
Hi – Larious discussion I had with NERaider. This game makes me look like a genius.

The fact is Dmac playing gives our team a better chance to win.Wishing that he doesnt play is like wishing we have a better chance of losing. Did I really have to say that?
Neraider Says:
October 22nd, 2010 at 6:56 pm
If he is not 100%, then why wish him back early. He said himself he is only 70%. Don’t push it and set him back even further.

October 22nd, 2010 at 6:56 pm
Of course I want McFadden in the game. But he is not 100%, it doesn’t make sense.

I had to drop Murphy with Campbell in there. He just doesn’t throw it to the WR’s
________
I agree. This is why I wanted Grads from the beginning. Campbell plays like the other team is extorting him. Even if he does throw it he will do it in a way that makes it difficult for the WR to catch it.

Wooooohoooooo! 59 points in one game! thats more than Bed & breakfast scored in 2 months! thank you!
October 24th, 2010 at 9:01 pm
That was a monster spank down!!!
Raiders!!!!
October 24th, 2010 at 9:02 pm
Channel 4 did not play the Raiders history making event during the halftime highlights . Had the shoe been on other foot, another Raiders calamity, it would have consumed the entire halftime show.Raiders, string a few impressive wins in a row and you will not be ignored.
Coach Cable deserves much credit for finally getting the entire team prepared to win this game!!!!!
Congrats Raiders!!!!!
October 24th, 2010 at 9:04 pm
Dmac ran away for one. first time that happens. now i believe!
October 24th, 2010 at 9:04 pm
A LOT of people are going to have to eat their words after this game. I’m just watching now, seeing if I have to apologize to Campbell.
October 24th, 2010 at 9:06 pm
Campbell didn’t look lost this game, so yes apologize to him.
October 24th, 2010 at 9:06 pm

*************************
Put me on that list. I said all he was going to be good for was at WR in the slot. I was wrong BIG TIME. I’m also glad I was wrong. It’s good to see him playing NFL caliber ball. DHB are you watching? NMiller is happy to take your place. He knows how to catch and hold onto the ball. Ask him, maybe he’ll teach you how to do it.
October 24th, 2010 at 9:09 pm
Holy Crap. Im still in awe that we did that today….
and this only makes me think back the Seabass missin that FG….
2 games we had won and lost…..
U realize we could be 5-2…..I know I know…u are what you are but….man
October 24th, 2010 at 9:09 pm
Man I’m going to have a great week of classes because of this win. Now I don’t have to worry about sports radio trash talking or media smearing my teams good name.
Now the challenge comes in going back to back…really worried about that.
October 24th, 2010 at 9:10 pm
I just hope Hue keeps running this type of diverse offense and does not go back to being so predictable, and yes keep the blitzes coming “D”
October 24th, 2010 at 9:10 pm
Being a Raider, i was hoping for JC letting it all hang out ala Hyded. But hey,
October 24th, 2010 at 9:11 pm
Deuce,
We could also be 6-1. Our only big margin of loss came from the Titans.

The reason the Raiders dominated today was because Al was calling both the offensive and defensive plays from up in the booth.

October 24th, 2010 at 9:12 pm
Im at UCSB, in the middle of Charger territory. The last few weeks have been fantastic! All those bandwagon charger fans cant believe what is happening this season, the know they missed their window. The next 5 years of the division will be owned by the Raiders and Chiefs. Wearing my McClain jersey tomorrow for sure….
October 24th, 2010 at 9:12 pm
I think the Raiders were given an experimental military drug today. Like Jacob’s Ladder. I’m surprised they didn’t start attacking each other on the sideline.
October 24th, 2010 at 9:13 pm
Macho,
Maybe he was Mr. Hyde to the Bronco’s and Dr Jekyll to us. He played good football today and managed the game very well.

NMiller needs to be run out of the slot. He has deceptive speed and great hands. add to that outstanding body control to adjust to the ball where ever it is while staying in bounds. This kid is a real Gamer and needs more touches. Every time he plays we win. Let’s make sure he’s in every game as a WR & PR. He’s going to break one of those soon.

Itchy and Scratchy working out their differences?
Brett Farve retiring?
All that was missing was the evil Captain Kirk.

NMiller needs to be run out of the slot. He has deceptive speed and great hands. add to that outstanding body control to adjust to the ball where ever it is while staying in bounds. This kid is a real Gamer and needs more touches. Every time he plays we win. Let’s make sure he’s in every game as a WR & PR. He’s going to break one of those soon.
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
AGREED, there was a reason why they kept him last yr… i know BAUCE came on here aand started rippin him a few weeks ago… i was leerie myself, but man this guy is a FOOTBALL PLAYER !!! PERIOD HE NEEDS 7-10 TARGETS A GAME!!!VERY ELUSIVE
October 24th, 2010 at 9:21 pm
I think the quick 14-0 lead allowed Jackson to open up the play-calling.
October 24th, 2010 at 9:22 pm
This was a perfect example of Hue earring his pay and adjusting the playbook to the abilities of his Qb. Lots of screens and disguised routes.
October 24th, 2010 at 9:23 pm
Nice back bounce game for McClain, and did anyone see Richard the Beast Seymour pick up Nochit Moreno and slam him with one arm!!! that was sick, and that is why Seymour gets my vote for defensive MVP he was an animal!!!

It was also great to see the Raiders running misdirection and blitzes. It’s the key to winning in th NFL.

October 24th, 2010 at 9:35 pm
Yes I believe Miller should be our number three WR, but too many people need to get off of DHB azz. How can he be judged unless he gets thrown too and lays an egg every game! I can not say if he is or is not getting open, and I am pertty sure no one in hear does either unless you have the coaches tapes!!

Interesting comparison.
October 24th, 2010 at 9:54 pm
Jason freaking campbell. The first drive of the game was all about him. He did it with his legs & his arm. In this game it wasnt about his numbers, it was about( dare i say it ) intangibles and toughness. He led the way you said he couldnt.
Furthermore dont make this scabs vs. Jc, becuase scabs until further notice is irrelavent. I guess Davis ( me) had it right. Campbell is exactly the fit we need.

Mike mitchell is becoming a defensive leader! Not only did he cover and hit playing safety, but when he is the nickle lb with branch and huff at safety this team is tough. What i love about dynamike 34, he is a playmaker the the gets the defense fired up. This is a unique quality that should not be understated or overlooked. Who was the last defensive guy we had that teamates axctually responded to in that way.. Romo maybe? If you still dont like this kid you dont know football.
October 24th, 2010 at 10:01 pm
AS for the lineup.
I think you go with the hot hands…
1. J.Campbell should start until he loses or has a bad half. Gradkowski is no lock on the position yet.
2. DMAC should get more of the carries, but Bush should be good for 10 or so carries as well
3. JLH, Nick Miller and Jacoby Francis (LOL) should all get more playing time. DHB should sit down and watch the game. Having other receivers making plays is refreshing.
4. Veldheer is the left tackle. Period.
5. Defense looked good sending pressure to ORton and playing aggressive

I just saw it on “The Blitz”. As much as I don’t like Jackson for his “Bronco-ness”, he took it like a man; gave Raiders props, talked about the rivalry, then called the Bronco effort “pathetic”.
He was visibly twiddling his fingers going into the break.
You know he was just seething when Berman kept on going “The Raiiiiiiduhhhs”.
Tom was pretty classy about it in all honesty.

MHenderson needs to start practicing at RG or RT. It appears that Veldheer has stepped up to be a starting LT. That’s great for us, one less thing to need for the draft. We should go after Justin Hartwig, released C from the Steelers. Let him start at center and compete against Satele when he returns. Our first pick, second round next year, needs to be Mike Pouncey. He can learn under Hartwig and assume the fultime center duties when he’s ready. If MHenderson can adapt to RG or RT then we’ve basically solved our O-line dilemma. By then we can expect BCampbell to be ready to fit in at RG or RT and Viola, we’ve got a new O-line of significance. We still need a long term solution at QB but we can make do for now if the O-line is solid.

It’s also incredible that Marshall didn’t call off the dogs in the 2nd half.
October 24th, 2010 at 10:25 pm
“Some of the comments their coach had made, he was trying to floff us up during the week about last year how physical we were,” left guard Robert Gallery said. “There was some sarcasm in some of those comments. We knew we had to come out, do our thing and show them. We did that.”
———————————–
I guess I wasn’t the only one that thought that. McDaniels praise was over the top. Glad these guys took it as sarcasm.

Exactly. Except for that TD drive to open the 2nd half. Seemed like they just sat back on that 2nd and long after the sack. Gave those yards right back and Dungver marched right down the field.

Sunday October 17th 2010 will go down as one of the most important days in raider history. It made raider nation question there loyalty for there team. The Oakland raiders had to guestion themselves if they are football players or not. This team changed that day. And they all looked in the mirror. And said enough is enough. Let’s do what we do and beat some a$$. Good day for raider nation. And as for the raiders that’s how football is played. Congrats to this team. And congrats to raider nation for being the best fans in sports. Raider nation is not just part of are life it’s a lifestyle. I’m out.

The defensive pound (i.e. dogs) needed some payback. They needed to prove they weren’t the same losers that showed up at SF last week. It’s good to feed the animals every now & then. Every Sunday seems about right for the feast.

What’s amazing is they “called off the dogs”. Didn’t even score in the 4th quarter. Should’ve/could’ve scored 70 +.

Some of you saying Raiders aren’t getting coverage from media on this but on the radio, ESPN, etc. it is kind of a big story. I think cuz it was a battle between two 2-4 teams it’s not AS BIG as if this was a game between a couple of “elites”. But still and all, I think Raiders are getting a fair amount of coverage for this. The 59 points is startling.
October 24th, 2010 at 10:40 pm
Chaz should be coming back by the queef game or right after the bye I would think also.
That will only help the WR corp and whoever is playing QB.
It will open up the offense even more.

What an epic beatdown. I haven’t seen domination like that in as long as I can remember. The only thing I can think of is us last preseason against New Orleans, but that was preseason. Today was the real deal.
McFadden was surreal today. Can’t believe I kept him on the bench in fantasy football today because I thought he’d be splitting carries with Bush. Oh, well. I’ll take it.
Do yourself a favor and go watch that 57-yard TD run again. Wasn’t just pure speed — although that was definitely evident — but tremendous vision as he made at least 3 cuts at full speed where there were no clear running lanes until he slid into them. Probably the most impressive TD run I’ve seen this season by any NFL back.
Nice job by CJ37 setting the tone on defense and Huff banging out that turnover on the very next play. Two guys who don’t get enough respect in here, IMO. And Mike Mitchell looked downright awesome. This kid was all over the place today. He needs to be on the field more.
And Nick Miller is a player. Dude is a true football player. What a steal.

They weren’t. Til a couple of hours ago. I made a few calls to some high up brass and told them to get their act together. Had to remind them of the score.
October 24th, 2010 at 10:54 pm
If Cable had a score to settle we could’ve easily put up 70+ and set an NFL record for points scored. I think they said during the game the current mark is 72. Two more TDs with 2 xps in the 4th would’ve put us at 73.
Probably a wise move by Tommy though. No sense in laying it on gratuitously thicker on a team we’ll see again this year — Even though I would’ve loved to see it.

I think Tom will get some folks in the stands.
I like Tom’s blue collar approach. I thought the lack of Xs and Os would be his demise, and after last week – Hue Jackson’s as well.
Boy did those two (and Marshall) sut me up. Great coaching today. All thi :worry about ourselves” crap was just that. Worry about the guys you’re lining up against and gameplan accordingly.
Very succesful at that today, obviously.
Tom said when he first took over “the Oakland Raiders are back” and it got the Kool Aid flowing for me. I always advocated for him up until that Houston loss and certainly after SF, but my faith is restored at least for this week.
The question is…. can they keep it up?
He wants a$$es in the seats. OK fine. Can you keep winning?

October 24th, 2010 at 11:47 pm
so i believe sea is a bad road team
October 24th, 2010 at 11:49 pm
Jason was solid. They didn’t ask a whole lot of him today, but he certainly delivered.
Coaches were prepared and I think the gameplan and the quick TD to Miller got him in the game early.
Props to Jason. He and the 52 other guys need to keep it up.
I like that they can get the ball out of his hands quickly, but was also very pleasantly surprised with how much time he had on some of these throws and how well he threw.
Screen passes will help him a lot so he can get the ball out when defenders are in his face. Raider RBs keep picking up the blitz like they did, he’ll excell if he can stay consistent, but I think when Tom made Bruce starter, he meant it.
But in the Not For Long, who knows. Jason played like he deserved it, so he gets no sh;t from me.

October 24th, 2010 at 11:57 pm
You dudes are hilarious. You claim Al Davis has lost his eye for talent to old age and his glasses arent strong enough. You complain about his preoccupation with speed.
I present to you Darren Mcfadden. In his third year, he hasnt even begun to hit his physical prime, let alone mastering the virtues of manhood or maturity. He is a freak of nature. He couldnt stay healthy early on, as his body wasnt prepared to handle the beating a back has to handle on this level. He also seemed to struggle with trying to figure out how to use his natural gifts of speed and power, knowing when to turn on the speed or run you over. This resulted in shoe string tackles and failure to deliver the blow. Dont look now but Dmac is getting it just as his body begins to harden into nfl maturity.
Dmac is that rare athelete that old man Al covets. Can you imagine if they finally give him a qaulity line in front, as he continues to grow into and develop. Becuase of his age he still haent reached his ceiling.
Al Davis is kicking your a$$ in here tonight, just like real raider fans knew he would. Best of all he did it his. After all speed kills.

“WASHINGTON — The NFL sent head coaches memos before this week’s games listing their players who were called for two or more unnecessary roughness penalties since 2008 — yet another step in the league’s effort to cut down on illegal hits.”
HA! This must have been a very long list. especially for the raiders…
October 25th, 2010 at 12:20 am
Yeah, McFadden when healthy is the best back in football. Not much of a reach to say after a game like this.
He’s becoming the guy we drafted. We all knew he was special, just didn’t know if he could stay upright.
He’s proving a lot of people wrong right now. If DHB ever gets on track, Al will again be laughing in everyone’s face like he did for so many years.
Gallery’s got talent. Natural calling was LG.
We see Fabian playing well in Baltimore.
Huff’s got talent. Played better today, still think he would be a gifted nickel, but whatever.
Russell is a gifted athlete. Granted, Al should have vetted him more carefully, but to his credit and occasionally the team’s detriment, Al brings in athletes to play football and cares little else what they do as long as they don’t cross him.
Not Al’s faul Russell was a slob.
McFadden’s preformance spoke for itself.
And of course, the jury’s out on Heyward-Bey who was certainly more of a reach than the others mentioned, as most were all pretty much considered safe picks.
October 25th, 2010 at 12:22 am
Al can pick ‘em for the most part. He;s certainly hit more than he’s missed, but I’m sure there will be a slew of posts naming guys who have completely sucked, but it’s like that with 31 other franchises as well.
October 25th, 2010 at 12:23 am
Be good, Nation.
October 25th, 2010 at 12:31 am
All I ask is that if you’re going to the game Sunday please DO NOT BOO our players. They’re our players no one can win games for us except them. WE need every voice there screaming their heads off. Even if it doesn’t look good at times stay with it and you’ll see good things happen.
We need this game for confidence against the KC Chiefs who are playing very well right now. No negative voices in the blackhole please. If we can get to 500 4-4 going against KC we can get into 1st place by beating them.
DMC looks like a top 3-4 RB in the league I’d like to know who’s much better I think he is closing in on AP and CJ. He’s 20 lbs. bigger than CJ and that 4.3 speed looks awesome at times. With both those backs healthy we may have the best backfield in the league. It can carry us to the playoffs and beyond.
I think now the coaches know what defense we should play the style we played today just fits this team so I’m all fpr getting after the QB witha variety of blitzes and coverages. We just play better that way and you have to play to your talent.
October 25th, 2010 at 12:41 am
Guy’s let me tell ya’ DHB will be just fine we haven’t even scratched the surface of what this offense can be DHB will be a HUGE part of that as it gets better. We’ve just begun to do the things that can work with him and he’s just starting to understand what he can do. Give the guy a break he’s played 23 games as a pro. He’ll end up probably playing about 160 before his career is over he’ll get tons better.
Relax!!!
October 25th, 2010 at 12:45 am
Autumn Thunderstorm, Raiders dominated, everyone contributed:
Mr. Campbell to Mr. Zach Miller,
Mr. C. Johnson interception return for a TD, w/ DB teammates shutting down Denver’s #1 passing attack, Mr. Mitchell (34mm) proving he is worth a 2nd round draft pick solid coverage, tackles, and a forced fumble, Mr. Routt solid (had int taken away because of penalty), Mr. Huff w/ a forced fumble, solid performance by Mr. Brown & Mr. Branch w/ another fumble recovery, & Nnamdi playing such tight coverage on which ever reciever he was on, Orton could not even consider throwing his direction.
October 25th, 2010 at 12:52 am
Autumn Thunderstorm, Raiders domination by entire team;
even Mr. Eugene downed Mr. Lechler’s punt at the 1/2 yard line.
Mr. Janokowski is still kicking off through the uprights.
Raiders D-line, sacks by Mr. Kelley, Mr. Seymour, 1/2 sack by Mr. Scott, fumble recovery by Mr. Houston (for a TD taken away by refs early whistle and wrong call- Mr. DMAC scored thankfully), Mr. Bryant with the goal line stance, Mr. Shaughnessey still stuffing the run and tackling running backs behind the line of scrimmage as did Richard & Mike on a slam dunk of Moreno, the U.S. Air Force in Cheyenne Mountain felt that one.
October 25th, 2010 at 12:56 am
I want to give credit to CJ37.I have been down on him all year.His pick 6 was the key to the game-it totally set the tone.Going up 14-0 as fast as we did allowed the Def. and the Off. to turn it loose and turn it loose they did.As Hayes37 says-it’s a great day to be a Raider fan.
October 25th, 2010 at 12:58 am
Wow, f’ing incredible. You can see they are coming together, they’ve been right there all the while which makes those losses so frustrating. The best thing is Marshall has discovered blitzing or even the other team knowing you will do it….works. You kind of get the feeling the Donks were like us going into the 49ers game, a little overconfident.
What makes it that much better is a buddy of mine called me just before the game (he was there) and it was loud in the background and he was trash talking and I said “too bad you have to be there for what they Raiders are gonna do to u guys” and boy I never imagined my words would come true
October 25th, 2010 at 12:59 am
Can’t figure Campbell out, but way to go JC…thanks for that one.
October 25th, 2010 at 1:00 am
Autumn Thunderstorm; Raiders team domination;
O-Line was outstanding in run and pass blocking; Mr. Vehldeer is our best lineman, Mr. Henderson stepped up, Gallery is back to pro-bowl caliber form, Carlise’s best game, Walker, Barnes, & Satele were solid. Mr. Zach Miller fulltime tightend, playing tackle, clutch 1st down receptions and started the 59 point onslaught,
Raiders runningbacks, Mr. Mcfadden will reach a 1000 yards first this year, Mr. Bush will also rush for 1000 yards, Mr. Reece, what a catch best hands on the team, followed by Mr. Nick Miller, just like in preseason, w/ Mr. Ford playing a solid all around game & Mr. Murphy.
Mr. Campbell great performance.
Great coaching Mr. Cable and Co.
Did I forget anyone?
Oh yeah Al congratulations, way to not trade CJ or either runningback.
October 25th, 2010 at 1:04 am
The Raiders broke some of their own tendencies, running out of passing formations and vice-versa.
When you don’t play al’s game (vanilla) good things happen. Keep it up.
October 25th, 2010 at 1:06 am
watching the game from here in Spokane, the Buff v Balt OT game kept the Raiders off the air for first few minutes, 1st play on TV was Mr. Chris Johnson’s interception returned for a touchdown. I am sure he called his wife first thing (if she was not at the game). Thankfully the refs didn’t penalize him for going to his knees, lifting his hands and thanking God like they did once before.

Wonder how bad Murphy’s shoulder is-if he’ll miss much if any time.
October 25th, 2010 at 1:11 am
I told you so,
Raiders would score a defensive or special teams td; get 2 interceptions and a fumble recovery w/ 4-5 forced fumbles (turnover numbers were inverted) Raiders sacked Orton 4 times,
only thing I was wrong about was Lechler passing for two TD— Raider’s offense was the epitomey of excellence.

I think you can plot our fate the remainder of our year offensively based on the strength of the d-line we are playing:
Tennessee – great defensive line
St. Louis – small defensive line – non dominant
Arizona – great D line
Houston – great Dline
San Diego – not so great D line
SF – good defensive line
Denver – mediocre D Line
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Very true. Campbell is tentative and scared when he knows there is a great threat of physical pain.
October 25th, 2010 at 1:15 am
Lefty I’m wondering the same thing as well re: Murphy’s shoulder and DHB’s “illness,” I wouldn’t be too concerned, but DHB did suffer from “fatigue” just 2 months ago.
Oh yeah I did forget someone, Mr. Higgins would have had a TD reception except for the blatant pass interference call, it did set up Mike’s TD run.
vs Seattle our WRs could be Higgins, Ford, & N. Miller.
October 25th, 2010 at 1:18 am
Raiders defense plays well when we are not up against a premier rb, cj, gore, foster, jackson versus these teams we are 1-3
against mathews, moreno, and wells we are 2-1
Seahawks have Lynch & Forsett, Raiders should hold seahwaks under a 100 yards rushing.
October 25th, 2010 at 1:18 am
One thing I do know aside from the 49ers and Titans game, the Raiders are fun to watch again. That is how you know they are close. Cable and company just need to do their own thing, as I said before, your job is on the line you might as well do it your way, Marshall too.
October 25th, 2010 at 1:22 am
I think the key to the game was that the Broncos prepared for the 1960 Raider playbook and got something they didn’t expect and didn’t know how to handle it. Creative and aggressive……I like!
Message to JC, dude your going to get miller killed if you keep exposing him with the high throws.
October 25th, 2010 at 1:35 am
Reece too
October 25th, 2010 at 1:45 am
Mr. Campbell just keep trusting your wr’s, te’s, and rb’s just fire the pass in there, they will catch it, and if you throw a pick, just realize you will throw a td next time.
October 25th, 2010 at 1:47 am
Before the season started a lot of people were complaining about Reece.I notice they aren’t complaining now.It’s funny how some of these players can play the game if given the chance to prove themselves even though most of the GMs on here think otherwise.Eventually DHB will also.I believe he is disliked because of when he was drafted,but that wasn’t his fault.Given time he will be a good to very good WR,maybe even better than that.
October 25th, 2010 at 1:52 am
Well,it is going to be fun reading all the comments this week,especially by all those who have been saying how terrible everyone on this team is and how none of them could play for any other team.And after we beat the Seachickens it will get even funnier.

“I’ve long maintained that while penalties are annoying, they were never the difference when the Raiders were good. They’re only the difference when the Raiders are bad.”
I completely agree with that Jerry. If you look at the great teams, for example the Stabler years, we had plenty of penalties but it didn’t matter because we were dominant.
October 25th, 2010 at 2:46 am
hate to say it but as much as i would love gruden back, i am wanting to see how cable does given one more year as well. guys are playing for cable, they truly seem to like him and respect him. gm? anyone.
October 25th, 2010 at 2:48 am
penalties show a lack of focus and mental mistakes, i’d rather not have em.
October 25th, 2010 at 2:58 am
Campbell played a good game but we would have done as well or better with Gradowski.
I think we can win with either quarterback.
We shouldn’t get too carried away with this. It’s a lot easier having a pass rush when you’re playing the worst running team in the NFL.
Still, McFadden looked spectacular. What a tandem of McFadden and Bush!
Play calling was MUCH better.
We need to keep Veldeer at LT. For a rookie, he did really well despite those three false start penalties. The whole line played better.

Sure agree with that. That was a great 32yd catch on the sideline. Good pass by Campbell, spectacular catch by little Nicky!
October 25th, 2010 at 3:06 am
we shouldn’t get too carried away, but at the same time i’ve felt they were close and the only thing holding them back was play calling or “theories” on play calling. also, at the same time they need to use this to get a little swagger on. that is not to say that they should just expect to win if they show up as they did with the niners, they have to understand they can win if they make the effort and i think they learned that with the last 3 games. they also can’t be inconsistent with the play calling, now that they’ve shyied away from some of al’s preferred methods, they can’t necessarily go back to using only them. they effectively threw denver a curveball when they were looking fastball like they did to philly last year but it does no good if you go back into old patterns. you must be unpredictable and keep teams off balance and at the same time you can be physical as well.

Go root for another team because Al Davis owns this one he biult it the players are his and he hired the coaches to coach the wya they’re coaching. Truth is you don’t know squat about this team nor it’s owner you are a wannabe Raiders you fake as punk.

When the Raiders win, they do it in spite of Allen Davis and typically by blitzing.

Damn, what a late night it is for me. Insomnia and bud light with lime. Laugh all you want. On a diet. Good thing I don’t have to be at work till 7pm tomorrow, or tonight, whatever. Anyhow, watching the game right now. Two things I’ve noticed:
1) Not to crap on such a monumental victory, but it was mostly due to Denver’s mistakes. If the Raiders are to get credit for anything in the early 31-0 run, it’s the running game.
2) Campbell CAN NOT pick up blitzes. Jesus Christ he looks so damn awful when he reads the blitz too late and tries to juke out of it.
3) How disrespectful of their crowd to still be into it despite the blowout. I’d love to think it’s because it’s Raider week, but a part of me can’t help but to think that they honestly felt the Raiders would blow that lead, even in the 4th quarter. lol. Any other team has that kind of start on them, they’re leaving in the first quarter.
3)

October 25th, 2010 at 4:58 am
Can we stop with the Nick Miller and Wes Welker comparisions please!!! The only reason people compare the two are because they are both white.
Welker ran a 4.8 forty and his season long catch, out of 37 receptions, is 27 yards. It took one throw to Nick Miller for him surpass Welker’s season long catch by 10 yards.
Nick Miller is a down the field speed guy, Wes Welker is a 7 yard crossing pattern guy.
Not even a close comparision. Deon Branch or maybe a Mike Thomas of JAX are much more similar smallish WR’s types that Miller would compare more to.
Just stop with Wes Welker comparisions!!!!

I said the same thing during the game yesterday when someone tried to make that comparison.
Welker is a short crossing routes guy (and I do wish we had someone like that). Nick catching a 30+ yard bomb does not in any way remind me of Welker.
The two do not compare other than being small white guys – and being good players.
October 25th, 2010 at 5:37 am
Rockstar,
Jaquars and Raiders rush defense are about neck and neck, only seperated by less than 10 yards. Jaquars have given up the second most rushing TD’s in 10, we have given up a middle of the pack 6.
And we are blowing them out the water in total defense.
McClain led Raiders Defense = improving, and improved from last year
Morrison led Jaquars Defense = declining, and much worse than last year
October 25th, 2010 at 5:52 am
Good Morning Nation!!!
59 points on Denver! I would have loved a shut out with that score, but…
Most points by any team (correct me if I’m wrong) in 20 years?
Anyways…we need to come back home and have that same energy and spark that will cause us to win our first back to back games in 2 years! Without that, this blow out loss means NOTHING!
October 25th, 2010 at 6:00 am
This Monday morning was worthy of reading the news on Broncos websites for enjoyment. Here are some real good quotes:
“All that respect for the Raiders netted a foot on the throat approach from the silver and black that had all the magnaminity of a stab in the back. Up over 5 TDs in the 3rd quarter the Raiders pounded the ball into the endzone for another score. Up 52-14, they attempted several long pass plays to go for a jugular that had long been tossed aside, like predators playing with their food.”
“The Broncos had waved the white flag in the mid fourth quarter, choosing to run three safe running plays and punt, in the hopes of beseeching mercy, and the result was an attempted TD drive by Oakland, en route to setting a franchise record in points scored with 59.”
“the Charges have specialized in kicking the Broncos when they were down, whereas the Raiders have made an art form of kicking the Broncos until they are down.”
“now their franchise seems to be determined to build itself back up on the bones of Broncos casualties. Last year JaMarcus almost salvaged a career that was irrevocably doomed. This year, the Raiders stood on the backs of defeated Broncos to reach for franchise records.”
“But don’t think for a second that the Raiders are congratulating themselves for putting the Broncos’ playoff hopes in the equivalent of the waiting line for a shower at Auschwitz. No, the Raiders are cheering about one thing, because you see, they get it. They beat the Broncos. They embarrassed the Broncos. They probably got a Bronco or two fired, and they most certainly damaged the psyche of several Broncos in the process.”

Josh McDaniels is a hack, and the Broncos have one of the worst records in football in the last 17 games (4-13).
Not sure if he will make it home from London with a job if they lose next weekend.
October 25th, 2010 at 6:21 am
This was the best I’ve seen the Raiders play any single game in my entire life. The mistakes the Broncos made were because of what the Raiders were doing to them. Pressure on the QB, stopping the run, and three instances of ripping the ball free.
As for the QBs. At this point I am playing the hot hand. Go with Campbell until he slips….then go with Gradkowski until he slips…but keep going with the hot hand. Someone will standout.
DHB should be on the bench. My biggest issue/complaint is that the receivers just aren’t making plays. Nick Miller, Jacoby Ford and JLH were making plays….read receptions….read moving the chains….read keeping drives alive.
Go with a “receiver by committee” approach similiar to the QBs. Guys making plays play…those that don’t sit and learn.

freakin’ idiot. I don’t want to see this team roll into next week overconfident and then crumble if we can’t run the football in the first half!
October 25th, 2010 at 6:23 am
Random brain droppings:
-After watching what McFadden has been able to do this season, I’m convinced that the injuries that kept him out of the lineup his first two seasons had never completely healed when he did play. The breaking of tackles is night and day. Just amazing. THAT’s a #4 overall pick.
I could see him having a career like Priest Holmes did with KC: utterly brilliant and one of the best in the league, but continually hampered by injuries.
-Campbell actually has great mobility on designed rollouts and has a decent ability to step up in the pocket when he feels the rush coming. However, Campbell’s not very good at improvising and has poor pocket awareness. Those are exactly Gradkowski’s strengths. They make an interesting complementary pair.
-Veldheer was a revelation at LT. The false start penalties were annoying, but that’s standard rookie crap. That will get better with experience. The holes he and Gallery opened up in the running game…ye gods.
-Never thought I’d say this, but Satele’s concussion could be a major blow. (Kudos to him for stepping up; he had a horrible pre-season.) Veldheer at center is not as vaulable to us as Veldheer at LT. If Satele’s going to be out any length of time, I hope they go out and sign a FA center this week and hopefully he can get up to speed in a hurry. I don’t think we run a particularly complicated blocking scheme, so a wily veteran should be able to pick up on things quickly.
-Carlisle had his best game this year. Maybe his best game in 2 years.
-The Broncos interior O-line had no answer for Seymour and Kelly. Tommy: why can’t you play like that all the time?
-Mike Mitchell keeps getting better and better. With Huff having several good games this year (he was beastly yesterday), I’m starting to point the finger at Tyvon Branch as the weak spot in the safeties and maybe the entire secondary. Keep him as backup SS and start MM34.

QB’s aren’t supposed to lose their jobs due to injury, so I think Bruce will get the nod if healthy (I bet Teabag $50 on this).
Either way, I wouldn’t be suprised if the season ended-up with both guys having 8 starts.
As the saying goes, if you think you have two QB’s, you don’t have any!!
(BTW, Campbell and Bruce still are 2 of the bottom 6 QB’s in the NFL in QB rating)

JFB,
I agree with the “two QB’s, you don’t have any” thing.
Thing is that Gradkowski is probably the better QB. But he’s not playing and being healthy matters. If Gradkowski is healthy for next week, I wouldn’t have a problem. But if he’s out again AND the Raiders win without him…..geez, Gradkowski isn’t that firm in the starting position that it should be waiting for him no matter what.
Durability was his biggest issue.
October 25th, 2010 at 6:32 am

October 25th, 2010 at 6:32 am
More thoughts:
-Where the hell has this playcalling been from HueJack all year? The pistol formation? Are you kidding me? AWESOME.
-The utilization of Marcel Reece. We have ourselves a nice weapon there, kids.
-The keepers of the Nick Miller faith are being rewarded slowly but surely. He always seems to make the first guy miss on punt returns. Want to see him utilized more in the passing game now.
-Hope none of the injuries from this game linger. According to the SFCHron, Murphy re-injured his clavicle, Shaughnessy has a concussion too and Wimbley strained his groin.
Our starting wide receivers next week could be DHB and Jacoby Ford. That’s not good, especially with Marcus Trufant and Earl Thomas in the Seahawks backfield. Also hope ShoNasty is not seriously concussed and will just have to take this week’s practices off. We need him.
-Finally, the #1 thing: build on it. Next Sunday is put up or shut up time for the 2010 Raiders. If they can’t build off this win, then they can’t build off any win. I hope the stands are full for Sunday; at least if they can’t lift the blackout, they get 50-55K in the stands.
October 25th, 2010 at 6:35 am
Earl Thomas is a stud for the Seahawks, don’t want to float any balls anywhere near him.
October 25th, 2010 at 6:35 am
Unlike Kelly and Asomugha, Mitchell said the Broncos didn’t cash it in.
“They never quit this entire game,’ Mitchell said. “We had a great game plan for them and we able to just pour it on them. But did they ever quit? No.

why is Mitch more professional than two of the “leaders” on this defense ???
the Donks don’t need any EXTRA motivation for the next game they play against us. look at the scoreboard!

October 25th, 2010 at 6:41 am
Charles Robinson of Yahoo Sports says DMac was one of the “winners” of the weekend:
“The Broncos were atrocious, but there’s no more denying McFadden. He has finally put it together. Oddly enough, I watch him and don’t see him as the wickedly fast guy we expected coming out of Arkansas. He looks more like a well-rounded, physical runner with good speed. However you want to define him, at least you can say this: one of Al Davis’ highly paid picks is finally earning his paycheck.”
Wins = good press. Pretty simple.

So much for my preseason prediction that DHB will end up with the best NFL career out of him-Jamarcus and D-Mac.
After a few games I tried to recoup some semi-pro points and placed the over/under for TD’s for DHB at 4…….for his career.

i could probably take all the DMAC comments from the past three years and simply replace “DMAC” with “DHB” and it would all fit with the talk of being useless.
To be fair, DMAC was indeed useless for the first few seasons. Maybe DHB will blossom in the same way? He was a first round pick and while he hasnt performed, he hasnt committed a jawalrus-style f*ckup and will likely be retained as long as DMAC has been. Get used to it and hope he is a late bloomer like our suddenly-star RB.
WTF happened to make DMAC bust loose this season?
btw, woke up at 0500 in a hotel in Okinawa Japan to watch the raiders beat the $hit out of the donkeys this morning. got a call from the desk because i was making too much noise. damn fine day to be a raiders fan.

October 25th, 2010 at 7:18 am
DMAC ran like Bo Jackson or Marcus Allen yesterday!
October 25th, 2010 at 7:22 am
Does it feel could to be a Raider fan this morning or what?

WTF happened to make DMAC bust loose this season?
+++++++++++++
I think a combination of finally adjusting the NFL and being 100 percent healthy when he is playing.
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
I also credit Hue Jackson’s high intensity coaching, and Cable being more free to work with the line. I think DMAC heard the bad press about his toughness too.

October 25th, 2010 at 7:36 am
Great game! Only mistake cable made in the game…going for the extra point instead of 2 points when the raiders scored the TD to get to 58…c’mon Cable!!! go for 60 and make it that much more painful for the Broncos to swallow.
Let’s go Raiders. Let’s keep up the support and positive comments. Hopefully Grad can come back next week and Mcfadden stays healthy. If we keep those two in the game, we can win any game!

Can we stop with the Nick Miller and Wes Welker comparisions please!!! The only reason people compare the two are because they are both white.
——————————————————-
Cmon JFB!
I’ve been calling him our “Wes Welker” since last year’s training camp.
Moreso because I see him as a perfect slot WR, not because he’s white. But yeah, the Welker name probably sticks because of him being white, but so what man.
No way derogatory coming from me.
October 25th, 2010 at 7:40 am
One thing that happened to McFadden is he got older and stronger and healthier. He was pretty young when he came into the league.
October 25th, 2010 at 7:41 am
JHill, you are right.
Nick could be our Wes Walker.
October 25th, 2010 at 7:41 am

October 25th, 2010 at 7:42 am
I think Dmac finally realised that what he could do in college couldn’t cut it in the nfl.
October 25th, 2010 at 7:42 am
Our starting wide receivers next week could be DHB and Jacoby Ford.
——————————————————-
Ford was decent as a wideout yesterday. Have no problem with him being on the field.
DHB needs to be rotated in. There was a nice rotation of the WRs yesterday. No need to halt that.
Plus I think Chazerella is supposed to make his debut this week. He’s making me nervous about my 8 games played prediction, lol.
October 25th, 2010 at 7:43 am

1. Hugh-Jack called the game that we are supposed to play..(open with short rythem passing game to get Campbell RYTHEM)..then, pounded the hell out of Denvers weak a$$ RUN-D
2. DMAC IS BACK
3. GREAT PLAYCALLING THE WHOOOOOOLE GAME!!
4. Great DEFENSE!!
5. GREAT COACHING
6. GREAT SPECIAL TEAMS
7. FINAL RESULT RAIDERS 59 DONKEYS 14!!!!
8. AL DAVIS RAIDER FOOTBALL WON YESTERDAY!
October 25th, 2010 at 7:45 am
Wow. What a game! Nick Miller the DB Killer!!!! LOL. Who were those guys in the white jerseys yesterday? RaiderRockstar is officially banned from mosting here until Thursday every week, cuz it worked!!!
October 25th, 2010 at 7:46 am
Just don’t see anyway we take a step back from yesterday’s first road win of the season.
Defense finally came through with the statement game a lot of us have been waiting for. Didn’t bite on then play action fakes, bottled up the run, and most importantly, we got some fricking turnovers.
An offense that wasn’t so vanilla can only build off of that, right?
Key question is the QB position though. If Camplunkett wins in Seattle, 3 outta 4, does he stay the starter?

I just read that Shaugnessy had a concussion & Wimbley strained his groin yesterday.
We’re gonna need these guys especially if Henderson is out next week against a seahawks team that likes to run.
October 25th, 2010 at 7:53 am
Al Davis should probably just stop watching the Raiders, because you are never going to see us smash a hated division rival any better than that! What an amazing game. Anybody besides me wish our starters would have played the 4th qtr and broken the NFL record of 72 points in a game?
Oh and we scored more the 25% of our entire offensive output last season in 3 quarters! LOL
October 25th, 2010 at 7:54 am
The league owes Houston a Touchdown too! Basterds!
October 25th, 2010 at 7:54 am
Neilb,
I don’t think so. We have not won back to back, and we don’t play at this level consistently.
Fire Cable!
October 25th, 2010 at 7:55 am
Wow!! Didn’t know the seahawks were 4-2 and top of nfc west.
October 25th, 2010 at 7:55 am
Wow some of you guys are truly sad. After a performance like yesterday you still search for ways to criticize Campbell. Dont tell me he doesnt throw it deep he did that. Toughness, you bet your a$$, pulling yourself up by the boot strap and bouncing back after the niner game is exactly that. Yes Campbell showed leadership with his play on the field. Stop with all the crap about how he doesnt improvise or have pocket awareness, or heart. The first drive was all campbell, running when the pocket broke down, stepping up in the pocket when he sensed pressure coming off the edge, and being deadly accurate in or out of the pocket. He also showed off his ability to be accurate while on the move.
Please man up campbell haters and take a time out. Although it will be difficult for you to relax with jc’s silver & black cleat all up in your behind.
October 25th, 2010 at 7:57 am
You’re right Raider O,but I think the evil monkey will keep his job.
October 25th, 2010 at 7:59 am
For some reason, Cable’s teams play SOLID in Dungver. It pains me a litle to admit it, but the credit must go to attendance by our favorite northern plains pawn broker.
GO NAVY!
October 25th, 2010 at 8:00 am
Mistic… give it a rest dude. No one here will complain about the JC that showed up yesterday. Just like everyone here has a right to complain about the 10.7 JC that showed up at SF
October 25th, 2010 at 8:00 am
LMAO Neilb.
October 25th, 2010 at 8:01 am
Jhill,
I agree 100% on DHB being part of a “receiver by committee”
Nick Miller, Ford and JLH were able to push routes down field and actually made tangible plays.
It would be a shame to keep Miller, Ford and JLH off the field.
October 25th, 2010 at 8:01 am
I wish Romac would have gotten that pick 6 yesterday, as it was, give him a little credit for a pretty strong showing yesterday. He definitely looked worlds better than anything he has done this year
October 25th, 2010 at 8:02 am
Ex-Raiders are leading the seagulls…
Cris Clemons has 6 sacks
Mike Williams 32 for 348, 21 for 210 last 2 games
October 25th, 2010 at 8:03 am
That fat wide receiver has turned into a pretty decent FB… hes no Leron McClain but, he is MUCH better than the guy I thought we were getting in preseason.
October 25th, 2010 at 8:04 am

MISTIC, still impractical i see…First of all, i dont think one person..ONE PERSON IN THIS WHOLE BLOG IS MAD THAT CAMPBELL DID WELL…im extremely hyped about it. And i think i can speak for the others saying that they are too. That being said..WE ALL KNOW what JC can do on the opening two drives of a ball game, he plays the script very well. VERY WELL, AND in a PERFECT SITUATION, JC is the PERFECT QB!! He drives down with the help of short rythem throws, runs which were great, and then the play action! GREAT PLAYCALLING, GREAT EXECUTION BY CAMPBELL..
NOTE: I have been saying(though i am a big big grads fan) that i havent given up on JC, hes a good QB when hes on his game..HE PLAYED PERFECT IN A PERFECT SITUATION..
ALL OF YOUR POINTS ARE RIGHT
1. Pocket awareness better then GRADS
2. Scrambling ability fantastic
3. Throw on the run great
4. AGAIN..Played Perfect in a perfect situation, and if our WHOLE TEAM PLAYED LIKE THAT EVERY WEEK, campbell most likely would be a HERO, with a playoff appearance this year.
MY UNDERLYING THEME: Ok, he played well, actually very good. So did our DEFENSE(turnover city). So did our run game(DMAC). THE POINT IS WE WILL NOT HAVE EVERYTHING CLICKING FOR US EVERYWEEK LIKE THAT(VERY FEW TEAMS DO).
THINGS I HAVE YET TO SEE FROM CAMPBELL IN HIS CAREER:
1. loses confidence after a mistake
2. Plays as well as the team around him is playing
3. Yet to see him put together a gamewinning last minute drive to win it.
————————-
NOT HATING ON HIM AT ALL HE PLAYED GREAT, BUT SO DID OUR WHOLE TEAM, AS OF RIGHT NOW HES GOTTA BE STARTER, BUT I WANA SEE HIM DO SOME OF THOUGHS THINGS OR JUST WIN 2 GAMES IN A ROW, IF HE DOES THAT IT WILL HELP THE WHOLE NATION BE CONVINCED…
HOPEFULLY OUR WHOLE TEAM PLAYS THAT TYPE OF BALL EVERY WEEK AND I WONT HAV TO WORRY ABOUT THE THINGS MENTIONED ABOVE…

Jhill, this week will judge whether Cable truly has it. This team is painfully aware that its not good enough to just walk in and expect to win.
We can only hope they finally get it. If they can grab this one…then the season is turning around.
As we are painfully aware, the Raiders are always good for a couple of good victories a year.
Next 2 weeks will determine if they take the next step.

You dudes are hilarious. You claim Al Davis has lost his eye for talent to old age and his glasses arent strong enough. You complain about his preoccupation with speed.
I present to you Darren Mcfadden. In his third year, he hasnt even begun to hit his physical prime, let alone mastering the virtues of manhood or maturity. He is a freak of nature. He couldnt stay healthy early on, as his body wasnt prepared to handle the beating a back has to handle on this level. He also seemed to struggle with trying to figure out how to use his natural gifts of speed and power, knowing when to turn on the speed or run you over. This resulted in shoe string tackles and failure to deliver the blow. Dont look now but Dmac is getting it just as his body begins to harden into nfl maturity.
Dmac is that rare athelete that old man Al covets. Can you imagine if they finally give him a qaulity line in front, as he continues to grow into and develop. Becuase of his age he still haent reached his ceiling.
Al Davis is kicking your a$$ in here tonight, just like real raider fans knew he would. Best of all he did it his. After all speed kills.
—————————————————–
All you Davis a** sniffers ought to clam up at least until the team puts two wins in a row together, and makes a legitimate run at the playoffs. Hell, Davis has swung and missed at speed players so often in the last ten years odds were that he had to hit one out of the park eventually. And McFadden still needs to prove his consistency and durability, just like the rest of the team.
October 25th, 2010 at 8:12 am
Later Neilb.
Reece has good speed and great hands, he is a great weapon for our offense, but he is not a blocking FB.
We need to add a blocking FB, and cut a RB IMO. I would cut Bennett since he hasn’t don’t much this season.

First of all, none of them are so good that the starting job should be held for any reason.
At this point, the Raiders should be playing the hot hand. Campbell should start next week. 2 out of 3 good games and last week was done well.
But if Campbell puts out a garbage performance, Cable should have no problem pulling him.
As for Gradkowski, you have to stay healthy. Can’t help anyone from the bench
October 25th, 2010 at 8:16 am
@ bcz24,
wrong again. Read the thread today and yesterday, there are people that ar struggling to swallow down the fact that Jc just showed why he is a stater in this leauge. There have even been some that still claim that someone else should start over him. It is pathetic, the jc vs grad discussion has officially been silenced. Just like the donkeys, scabs career as a starter is now out to pasture.
October 25th, 2010 at 8:18 am
We have good weapons on offense to keep us in games, if our defense plays well.
We have 2 good RBs, Reece, a great TE, and speed at the WR position. We should play like KC. Run, run, and run some more. No more than 20 passes per game.

Some of you saying Raiders aren’t getting coverage from media on this but on the radio, ESPN, etc. it is kind of a big story. I think cuz it was a battle between two 2-4 teams it’s not AS BIG as if this was a game between a couple of “elites”. But still and all, I think Raiders are getting a fair amount of coverage for this. The 59 points is startling.
———
They weren’t. Til a couple of hours ago. I made a few calls to some high up brass and told them to get their act together. Had to remind them of the score.

Wow, based on the claims you’re making today–calling Cable directly, contacting “high up” media brass–you must be a very well connected person indeed. Perhaps you should identify yourself. LOL!

McDaniels apologizes while the rest of Denver goes insane
Posted by Gregg Rosenthal on October 25, 2010 10:33 AM ET
Broncos Josh McDaniels knew this wasn’t just any other loss. After Denver’s 59-14 beatdown to Oakland, the coach tried to make sense of the seemingly season-shattering moment.
“I apologize to [owner] Pat [Bowlen], the organization, the fans, everybody else. That was awful,” McDaniels said.
This was the type of game that turns a normally loyal fanbase against a coach. In a poll Monday morning on the Denver Post’s website, 83% of voters says the team has already quit on the season and won’t even “keep trying.”
We’d expect the fans to be so emotional, but they aren’t the only ones taking the loss hard.
Mark Kislza of the Denver Post writes that Kyle Orton “is done” in Denver and Orton just doesn’t know it. Kislza wonders when the Tim Tebow era will start.
“Orton can never again inspire real hope in this town,” he writes. Later: “If Tebow can’t play, then McDaniels is done in Denver.”
Insinuating Orton is the problem in Denver is like saying the sports section is responsible for the decline of newspapers. You want to kill the one part of the team that produces? The same writers that are despondent about the Broncos Monday (with reason, of course) thought they had a chance to win the AFC West before Sunday’s game.
Another headline in the Post: “Josh losing fans; is he losing team too?” Inside the article: “Nothing about the team [McDaniels] coaches bears any resemblance to the things he talks about.”
(The reaction reminds us a lot of the response Tennessee’s 59-0 loss in New England inspired last year.)
It’s safe to say the honeymoon is over for McDaniels in Denver. The lucky part here is his schedule and an owner known for patience. The Broncos go to London to face the 49ers, a team in bigger disarray than them. Then they get a bye week to regroup.
McDaniels needs to show his coaching chops the next nine weeks, but it wouldn’t take that long to turn around those poll results and the writers’ opinions.
All Denver needs is to win two straight games. If that happens, everyone will shower McDaniels with praise, saying the team didn’t give up when times were darkest. They’ll realize they overreacted. If they go 1-1, then McDaniels will be the same jerk they thought he was all along.
If they go 0-2, they will burn him at the stake.
October 25th, 2010 at 8:23 am
The Massacre at Mile High!
I must say that was the most satisfying sporting event I have ever attended. I simply can’t wipe the smile off my face. If I would have been able to script that game I never would have come close to the blowout it really was.
I have been to a few Denver games, and this was the first time I have witnessed the Broncos lose. Prior to the game the fans were strutting around the stadium with 100% confidence that they would beat us, then before their seats had warmed up it was 21-0. Right then one of my buddies turned to me and said “Am I in a parallel universe right now?” and I just said “NO BIOTCH AND YOU ARE NOT HAVING A NIGHTMARE, THIS IS REALITY! EAT IT!”
And it just kept getting better and better. 4 TDs by McFadden and I am at that game? You can’t be foookin serious! Franchise record for points? What? The o-line played great, the defense was outstanding….even the Timeout Coordinator was on the ball calling a TO before we lost 5 yards in the red zone for delay of game!
It truly was surreal. Even at 38-0 the fans were still there, but they got real quiet…and they didn’t even chant there normal annoying as foook IN-COM-PLETE chant on the few passes Campbell missed on. By the end it was almost all Raider fans in the stands….after the game it took me all of five minutes to get from the parking lot to I-25 North lol. Usually it takes an hour to get out of there!
My buddies all sat there to the bitter end with me…after the game we said our goodbyes and they said if this happens again I will not be allowed to go to another game with them.
I said that they couldn’t prevent me from coming to Mile High at the Oakland Raiders stadium since we now own their building.
And then on the ride home I switched off the xm and gleefully listened to the local sports networks cry in their beers for two hours until I lost the signals north of Cheyenne. They looked at it like it was their Waterloo. Like it was a culmination of trading away all their talented players and then blowing draft picks on losers like Teblow, lol. During the game the fans started chanting Teblow’s name, like that was gonna help lmao.
I did have to slam on my brakes in Wyoming to avoid a deer, and then had a couple more deer encounters once I got into SoDak, but I avoided the accidents and got home at about 11:30 last night…and then I watched the game on my DVR, well, I watched the great Raider plays…
…Just unbelievable! Best I’ve felt about a Raiders’ win since the AFC Championship game against the Titans. I am even going to back off of Cable for the rest of the week lol.
October 25th, 2010 at 8:28 am
SnB,
I’d have to say that Veldheer at LT and DMac in the backfield are more important than the QB at this point. Also having targets at WR other than DHB probably helped us out to.
I’ve always thought this team could be lead by the defense and running game. With that in mind Campbell or Grads didn’t have to be anything but decent.
I think with DMac and Chaz back and healthy, along with the upgrade at LT, I’m fine with Grads or Campbell back their.
October 25th, 2010 at 8:28 am
Oakglenn
Calm down dude. You’re over reacting again to JC like you did on the SD game. Yesterday, the game didnt allow JC to showcase whether he can win the game for us. Rather than boasting about JC, you should try and acknowledge that DMAC and company had a monster day. When the team rushed for over 300 yds and passed for 200, it’s kinda silly to be on here boasting about the QB. When JC have a great game, I am sure all of us on here will acknowledge that. JC had an efficent day and let’s leave it at that.
On the other hand, DMAC did announce to the world he is for real. He had a monster game and I enjoyed his cuts yesterday. He made guys whiff on him that I didnt think he had in him.
October 25th, 2010 at 8:30 am

Anyone seen my friend, Rockstar?… Had a question for him….
Fuggin killed those donks…
Oh and no offense, but the guy who said we’ll go 8-0 in our division…. Well, I think you should concentrate on your 1st grade arithmetic, or NFL divisional alignment… We play 6 divisional games, so it’s pretty hard to go 8-0…. Care to explain that one????
RRS where are YOUUUUUUUUUU???????????
October 25th, 2010 at 8:30 am
Some you need to call child protective services becuase my man Hu-Jack spanked that a$$ yesterday! There wereso many raider fan imposters that have said hu-jack isnt a hood play caller. What will you do now that you have no ammo. Rhe zone read option from the pistol formation was pure genious. The inside runs with reece, bubble screens, reverses, and yes as much as you hate it the deep vertical strike was in complete control. Did you see the pro set with bush and reece on the goal line? There was nothing vanilla about it. I only hope Hu-jack saved his receipt, now that he owns you fake bandwagon fans, i want him to trade you for actual supporters of this team. Like i told you from the start Hu-jack is the truth!
October 25th, 2010 at 8:31 am
Good for you Dakota!
4 TDs from your boy while you were there had to be pretty amazing.
October 25th, 2010 at 8:32 am
Dakota, I was predicting you shot a load in your pants yesterday based on DMAC’s perf. Congrats bro on being at the game and seeing your fav player introduce himself to the NFL. He had a monster day. I think he’s our best back since Marcus/Bo/Gainer.
October 25th, 2010 at 8:34 am

This was the FIRST game in what 7 now that Hue Jackson looked like the best OC on the field. No WTF was that plays, no running the ball on 1st and 2nd down, and then a vertical pass on 3rd down.
Denvers’s coach said it best …
The Raiders broke some of their own tendencies, running out of passing formations and vice-versa.
“They did a lot of things that were new for them this week,” Denver coach Josh McDaniels said.

October 25th, 2010 at 8:36 am
When we play aggressive we almost always win.
Unfortunately we almost go into a “let’s play conservative” approach. It’s like we’re trying ‘not to lose’ rather than playing to take it to them.
When we go after them we have much more success.
Keep attacking!

You HAVE to realize that YOU start most of this back and forth.
YOU should not be on here saying ANYTHING about a QB who was at the helm of 2 outta 3 GREAT Raider wins.
You had your 5 minutes of fame when Campbell played like crap last week, so you should just sit back and let these Campbell fans have their moment in the spotlight without trying to downplay Campbell. The guy finished with the highest passer rating of his career man.
Give him a break already.
October 25th, 2010 at 8:40 am
The only disappointing part of the game is that the coaching staff took McFadden out near the goal line a couple of times. McFadden should have been allowed to score two more TDs.
October 25th, 2010 at 8:40 am
Just bought me 2 jerseys last nite. The Alabama Slamma as they like to call him here in the South and #34. This is the proudest I have felt about the Raiders in the past 7 years. I am confident yesterday’s game was THAT moment the team believed it can dominate. We dominated a 3rd ranked passing team in its home by playing aggressive with them. Then we rushed for over 300 yds. That was pretty impressive in all 3 phases. A complete win and some.

October 25th, 2010 at 8:43 am
Al Davis doesnt know talent? Romac is starting to come on. He was solid 6 yards off the line, he was incredible when he was on the line of scrimage. He tackled ball carriers, 1 sack but several pressures. Romac was also lined up over the d- end, his versatility was on full display.
Mm34 was everywhere. As a nickle lb he wreaked havoc! He was in the back field, in the whole, and solid in pass coverage. He actually makes the defense better, and is starting to explode as a playmaker! Best part of his game he is a tackling machine!
When dynamike 34 or romac hit you you are going down end of story.
Dont bother to reach for the salt, no amount of seasoning will help when you are eating shid like a lot of you jokers are this morning. Al Davis, football legend putting you in check!

C’mon Hill,
You’re twisting my words again. Go back and find any post from yesterday to today from me on JC. I have been consistent on JC having a very efficient day. Now Teabag and Oakglenn want to declare JC champion go ahead, DMAC and company had a monster day and you want to come on here boasting about the QB? effin Jawalrus would have won yesterday at the helm. STFU Hill.
October 25th, 2010 at 8:46 am
Hill,
I want to enjoy the win. JC had a good day and did his job. DMAC had a monster day. TC and company had their moment and I thank them for keeping their foot to the gas pedal. I refuse to get into a fight this week on here. It was a good day after the last 7 years.

Wassup cuz??? MM playing great.. In coverage, against the run, everything… Dude was all over the field yesterday… I have been wanting to see this… He is starting to get snaps, and he’s making the most of them….
Any news on DHB? I had to go to a party after the game, and just woke up a lil while ago…
I know he played first few plays, and was gone… Funny thing is, they never mentioned anything during the game.. Just said something at the end about DHB being outplayed by a Denver WR… i said to my pops “look, these idiots do not even realize DHB hasn’t been on the field since early 1st qrtr”…. I get pissed at some of these announcers, they don’t know many rules… If you’re going to have a job as an NFL broadcaster you should have a better understanding of the rules than I do, sitting on my couch at home….
October 25th, 2010 at 8:48 am
Good for you Dakota.
MM should be out starting SS. Period!
October 25th, 2010 at 8:49 am
just one game. One great game for sure,
——————————————————-
Actually, it’s 2 outta 3!
October 25th, 2010 at 8:51 am
NE,
DHB caught a flu bug during the game per twitter.
I’m not ready to bench this kid outright, believe it or not. I just think they need to put him in a rotation with the other guys,
He certainly shouldn’t be on the field all the time.
October 25th, 2010 at 8:52 am
I can’t agree more with the poster who demanded another helping of crow last night, lol.
This crow is tasting pretty dam good.
Boy was I wrong about Mike Mitchell.
October 25th, 2010 at 8:52 am
I am still not sold on JC…. Dude had 12 completions… Correct me if I am wrong, but only 5 were downfield throws… Miller TD, Reece where Murphy ran into him, Nick Miller, Murphy in middle of field (twice???) First pass of game was a quick slant, then a dumpoff to Miller in the flat, screen to Dmac…..
Yes, he played Okay, but nothing special, still seems unwilling to thrown down field, although he did make a few good throws… They play in which JLH drew a flag would’ve been a TD if not for the guy pulling JLH’s arm down… That was a good throw though, so I give JC credit… however, some are making it sound like this guy had a special game.. he had 12 freaking completions, and any one of us could have thrown the TD to Miller….
October 25th, 2010 at 8:55 am
423 Hill
Thanks man.. I am on the fence with DHB… JC still seems apprehensive about throwing down field, although he did improve…. There was a play in which Ford was wide open in the middle, and JC never even saw him….. I would like to see other guys get some chances though.. especially 89.
October 25th, 2010 at 8:55 am
Definitely agree with AIG-Raider. When your team rushes for 300+ yds, even the worst QB in the league can win the game. JC did throw the best long ball of the season for the Raiders when he threw to Higgins in the enzone…that throw was perfectly thrown and would have been TD if not for the Def PI. That said, yesterday’s performance by Campbell doen’t prove that he should start over a healthy Gradkowski. If Grads is good to go this week, I say start him over Campbell. If Grads and Mcfadden are playing, this team can compete and win any given Sunday.

I thought JC’s best throw was to Nick Miller imo. Those are the kind of passes that he needs to pull the trigger on more often. Put it up there early and allow the WR to make a play on it. The DB was helpless because the pass was thrown before he could see it.

I LOVE how everyone complains JC doesn’t throw down field much then complain that Al’s scheme of throwing the vertical too much is what is hurt this team. Let’s see 25% of his passes went deep, so the other 75% is either intermediate or short throws. I think it’s well balanced. Come on now, stop whining. He managed the game well.
October 25th, 2010 at 9:00 am

October 25th, 2010 at 9:00 am
WOW,
This was the most unexpected, surreal and satisfying Raider win in 8 long years.
Cable, Jackson, Marshall and even Al get a pass for the week.
If they play like this against the Seahawks, I might just have to change the moniker to BART Bridge Bliss.
Keys to this game in my mind are McFadden and the O-line getting on the same page, DHB riding the pine and the secondary finally finding their manhood.
Watching Tom Jackson talk about how the Raiders wanted this waaay more than the Broncos was like being in the twilight zone.

October 25th, 2010 at 9:08 am
Campbell was not the savior out there yesterday, but he certainly earned the starting nod for next week.
After a very scary start to his Raiders career, he is starting to come around. However, the ceiling on JC is much lower than what Al might have expected, he will always need a strong running game behind him to get the W. McFadden is the real revelation of 2010.
October 25th, 2010 at 9:10 am
Any news on who’s injured?
October 25th, 2010 at 9:10 am
I think our D is starting to come together. Considering the secondary kept most of its starters from last year, we have a new corp of LB and some new additions to the DL. Perhaps all they needed was time.
October 25th, 2010 at 9:11 am
JC had a great game.
12/ 20 for 200+, 2 TDs, 0 INTs, and rating of 127+!!!
JC had a great game! Period!
October 25th, 2010 at 9:11 am
The coaches deserve all the credit for this win. Cables line for giving Campbell all day and giving the RB’s huge holes and Hue Jackson for having the players prepared to execute a creative new gameplan that hid Campbells deficiencies
October 25th, 2010 at 9:11 am

Make some sense hommie… I am a hater because I put into perspective what Campbell did…. Some are making it sound as if he had the greatest game ever from the QB position.. The dude had 12 completions, and the majority of which were dump offs…. Obviously another radio guy, one does not watch and see the games…. I don’t care what the final score was, or what JC’s numbers were, he still appears unsure of himself. I gave him credit for his good throws… Bottom line is, he’s not all that impressive… Like I said, the two TD passes, any of us could have done that.. Miller was wiiiiiiiide open, and DMAC was responsible for the 2nd TD pass. If you’re impressed with what JC did yesterday, you’re easily amused……

That was the coolest game I have ever personally witnessed. It was a thing of beauty from start to finish. Bronco fans were shell shocked. Total shock and awe. Total destruction. Total domination. We made Denver our home away from home. It is a moment I will cherish for the rest of my life.
In 10 years I will have this conversation with my boy; “Son, I was at the 100th game between the Raiders and Broncos in Denver back in ‘10. I witnessed the Massacre at Mile High first hand. It was the end of the Broncos as an NFL franchise. Within two years the team had folded and moved to Albuquerque to join the UFL.”

They didn’t ask much of Campbell today, but he certainly delivered when called upon. See what a great running game does for a QB?
All Jason needs to do is make key throws, get the ball out of his hands, and MANAGE the game.
He did so very well on Sunday. Now he needs to prove he can be consistent (if he gets the start, that is).
October 25th, 2010 at 9:38 am
Lets not get carried away this is still a 6 win team. What is exciting is the way our young players are growing right nefore out eyes. You said reece and ford were Davis specials, you were right, dynamic play makers.
Davis was right about hu jack as well. Campbell with more time with this team will be a perfect fit ( skabkowski thanks for participating we have some lovely consolation prizes for you back stage).
Davis is right about veldheer. He will hold down the lt spot for a decade. Gallery smashefd the donkeys when he pulled. Can you imagine gallery pulling one way, next plau b campbell pulling the other!
Where are all the cracks about trading dmac for a bag of fritos and a half eaten chilli dog now?
By the way our press man coverage shut down one of the best passing games in the nfl. They were all over the donkey wides like drunken sailors on hookers! You hate that coverage, buy Davis knows better than you do.

This team should be at 4-3 with a chance to get to 6-3 with the Seahawks and Chiefs coming to Oakland.

Josh McDaniels is a poser. The Raiders exposed his sorry ass yesterday.
AFC West:
1)Chargers 10-6
2)Chiefs 9-7
3)Raiders 7-9
4)Broncos 4-12
Sorry, a new team gets to be the Best of the West this year. I think we may have a good old fashioned dogfight coming up with KC. We play them week 17 as well. Potentially a GIGANTIC game.

The Oakland Raiders scored more points Sunday than they scored in September, October or November last season.
They scored more points against Denver — 59 — than they scored in September of this season as well.”

Dakota,
I noticed by half time the seats were looking empty, is that true or did most of the bunkos leave during the third quarter.
+++++++++++
A few left at halftime, but the mass exodus began after we answered Denver’s 3rd quarter TD with one of our own. The place cleared out after that.
two most key moments for me in the game:
Answering their 3rd quarter TD and the goal line stand.

DMAC on the 57 TD run was not going to be caught. The summer training with that sprinter (name eludes me)he is much faster and stronger.
When he got caught in KC, in his first year, I was surprised. Yesterday he left no doubt, he is advertised, as he was drafted to do, speed and more speed. As a added bonus, DMAC is running over tacklers and stiff arming anybody near him.

Awesome win yesterday! Thank you. I love seeing Denver cry. Don’t get too excited, though, because the Chargers are still going to win the West. We just have to straighten out a few things.
^^^^^^^^
LOL!
The Choker Charger window is CLOSED. KC will be in it all the way and the Raiders will play tough also.
The Choker Charger schedule doesn’t get easier from here on out.
They have to play Tenn, Houston, Denver, and Indy before they get to us again. They will lose 3 out of the 4 of those games.
The Chargers are DONE and you can thank egomaniac AJ SMITH for not knowing how to deal with his star players!
Thanks AJ….your over confidence and arrogance has helped the Raiders get back in it in the AFC West!
Chargers suck!

Dakota,
I thought of you every time McFadden ran with the ball
knowing you were there to witness the demolition of the Donkey’s. Veldheer was impressive physically blocking like Matador Mario never could opening up big holes for McFadden. That left side of Veldheer and Gallery were something to watch. Now that McFadden has gotten over his turf toes, hamstring issues, and no longer trips over the lines on the field, he is really a beast. If you look back on predraft blog postings, you will see I said to draft him and not Vernon Gholston. Took a lot of crap for wanting McFadden and I ribbed you good naturedly about him while he was injured.

LMFAO! A snippet from http://www.milehighreport.com/2010/10/24/1771880/do-you-get-it-now-raiders-use-broncos-to-pad-stats-and-set-all-time?
And now their franchise seems to be determined to build itself back up on the bones of Broncos casualties. Last year JaMarcus almost salvaged a career that was irrevocably doomed. This year, the Raiders stood on the backs of defeated Broncos to reach for franchise records.
Perhaps worst of all, the mantra of “handle your work in the division” took an absolutely crushing, if not complete defeat. This wasn’t just any “first divisional game of the season”. At 2-4 with no divisional losses, a meager fortune awaited the Broncos historically. At 2-5, that hope slims to a narrow 2.8% chance of making the playoffs. But don’t think for a second that the Raiders are congratulating themselves for putting the Broncos’ playoff hopes in the equivalent of the waiting line for a shower at Auschwitz. No, the Raiders are cheering about one thing, because you see, they get it. They beat the Broncos. They embarrassed the Broncos. They probably got a Bronco or two fired, and they most certainly damaged the psyche of several Broncos in the process.
This is Raiders-Broncos.
Do you get it now?

Please don’t start arguing about the QB thing again people.
If Grads is healthy, he is the starter, if he isn’t….JC plays.
If Grads struggles during the game or makes bad mistakes, then they should put JC in!
Simple…it keeps these QB’s on their toes and keeps them ready to play….it’s all about TEAM competition.

I am going to say it until I am blue in the face, MM34 is our best Safety, PERIOD
Anyone seen my friend, Rockstar?… Had a question for him….
RRS where are YOUUUUUUUUUU???????????

LOL @ NE!
I give credit where credit is due. Mitch has played great 3 straight games. Give me 2 more and he starts every game at SS to finish out the season (after the bye week)
I still think Huff is our best safety, but I’ll give Mitch his due. The question becomes “what do we do with Branch?” if he gets burned in coverage at SS, theres no way I’m putting him at FS!
Huff = Pro Bowl. Print That

I’ve been scanning some comments of the Broncos fans, so amusing, real funny. Reminds me of this blog when we lose.
I’m thinking as bad as we were, with Japhoney, we got shut out, sacked many times, but never lost by 45 points or were never scored on like the Raiders did yesterday.
This week is huge, again, must win back to back games. Let’s seal the afc west, and go on a winning streak.
October 25th, 2010 at 10:16 am
I ended up starting the Denver Defense and they got me negative 7 points, and my team got crushed. The same thing happened when I picked up the Chargers D and I also got crushed.
I am thinking about picking up the Seattle D if they are available. If not, I’ll trade Ray Rice for them.

there were 5 QB’s you could have grabbed to sub for Grads, but I think 4 of them were gone by Tuesday morning and Todd Bouman wasn’t announced the starter until Friday – then somebody signed him on gameday just before the coin flip, haha

Hey, so I saw DHB before the game in the locker room, when I was hanging out with McFadden, and said to him, “If you drop one pass I am going to hammer you in McDonald’s blog.”
How was I to know DHB would get so nervous?
McFadden thought it was pretty funny. Cable just gave me the evil eye…had I been a small guy he probably would have tried to hit me.
Instead I was escorted out by Herrera and he called me a smoke potter and then told me Al Davis was watching my comments very closely, and that I wouldn’t think it was funny when I get a letter from Birren.
October 25th, 2010 at 10:35 am

whats funny about yesterday is this:
Darren McFadden grew up a HUGE donkey fan and his idol was Terrell Davis “TD”
but that didn’t stop him from punching the Donks in the mouth yesterday again and again and again and again and again
wish he would have done the Milehigh Salute just to piss off the fans in attendence (besides Lakota)

It’s no doubt that Campbell can and I believe will play better. I think he’s still learning this team. I think this offense fits him to a T because his skill set allows him to take whatever he wants.
I think DMC is right there as one of the top 3 HB’s in the league he has gotten so much better it’s ridiculous. I also believe they ran him the way they should run him he didn’t carry it 25+ times actually Mike Bush carried it more times and they used DMC very smart used to hit the perimeter and used Bush up the gut and it worked almost to perfection.
Marcel Reece is such a talent it’s incredible to think what a weapon this guy can be as teams have to focus on DMC and Bush. Reece is a great rec. and has good speed his blocking is much better than what people give him credit for.
This defense can get better the wya they played yesterday is how they should play every game we’ll win a lot more than we lose as a result of it. We just have the talent to do it now while before we didn’t.
October 25th, 2010 at 10:51 am
Only a smattering of die-hards were left when the game was over. Many of the fans who rushed the exits early must have been wondering, “Can the NFL also crack down on beatdowns?”

I think when healthy, he’s top dog. After a game like that, it’s hard to argue.
The combination of size, power, vision, and blazing speed make him the most deadly RB threat in the NFL.
Now can he continue to put up 30+ touch games like v. STL? He won’t get a buck sixty five on 16 carries week in and week out (can he? lol).

By the way about 2 weeks ago I asked everyone what would they prefer to beat the niners and lose the next 3 or lse to the niners and win the next 3 with 2 division opponents and this is why I’d have rather lost to the niners. We need these next 2 winsin the division and we have 1 to go. After we best the Seachickens of course.

HA HA, I’m here today to make some of you eat crow. Last week when we were dicussing the RB position I was saying that we needed to use Reese and Ford in the run game. A few people in here blasted me and called me a moron and ignorant. Its kinda funny that Ford ran for 29 yards and Reese ran for 57 yards. It changed our whole O, made us less predictable. Our O was unstoppable. Who’s the moron now? I’m talking to you Mister Brown.

McFadden put on a clinic yesterday. He basically chose to do something on each run and executed it to perfection. He was not to be stopped.
His long TD run was beautiful. A twisting, turning, juke the defender out of his cleats type run that said, “I own you”. His little screen pass he turned into a reach over the goal line TD, he carried the defender against his will and said “Eat it!”

Gotta give McFadden his props…..Never been a McFadden hater (just couldn’t stand seeing him fall from arm tackles all the time). And I consider myself a huge fan of Bush being a Louisville boy myself. At least for now, McFadden definitely looks like he should get the majority of the carries though. Still very glad we have the both of ‘em and am looking forward to Hue having them both out there at the same time in some formations, just as the Saints use Thomas and Reggie when they’re both healthy.

thats right. I think this last game sets off a 5 game win streak (4 more to go)
++++++++++++++++++++++
It’s possible, RRS, but I don’t see it. We’re not beating both Pittsburgh and Miami.
The Pittsburgh team the Raiders beat last year was reeling off a 3 game losing streak and was without Troy Polamalu, who is the guy that makes that defense go.
Steelers are on another level this year.
Obviously I hope they win, especially because I’m going to that game! But I just don’t see it right now unless Roethlisberger or Polamalu get hurt.
Miami’s a very winnable game IF the Raiders have a consistent run defense working by then. Otherwise Brown and Williams are gonna chew us up and spit us out.
8-8 is a very real possibility and I even see 9-7 as not being an absurd thought. But 10-6 is out of reach.

Please don’t start arguing about the QB thing again people.
If Grads is healthy, he is the starter, if he isn’t….JC plays.
If Grads struggles during the game or makes bad mistakes, then they should put JC in!
Simple…it keeps these QB’s on their toes and keeps them ready to play….it’s all about TEAM competition.
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
Let’s see. Behind JC we score the most points in Raider history while at the same time starting the clock ticking on McDaniel’s firing, and all you can think about is putting the team mascot in at QB? A guy that lost the only two starts he’s made this year? What a joke!
October 25th, 2010 at 11:03 am
But, can we string two wins together in a row? Next week is another must win, as will be every game the rest of the year. A Seagull beat down followed by an “I don’t care how ugly it is” win over the cheffs will be the benchmark the Raiders need to achieve in the next three weeks.

October 25th, 2010 at 11:04 am
I don’t know if he’s top dog but I wont argue. You have to do it a full season at least. But I’ll put him in the discussion. That running game though IMO is top dog with he and Bush carryying the load it gives DMC the ability to be fresh on every carry.

Louis Murphy re-injured his clavicle in the Raiders’ Week 7 rout of Denver — an injury that’s plagued him since Week 3.
The Raiders have let Murphy play through the injury, and he’s been almost a complete non-factor with six catches for 99 yards combined in his last four games. Murphy might be allowed to continue to play hurt against Seattle in Week 8, but he’ll need to be on fantasy benches until he shows he’s healthy. Oct. 24 – 11:28 pm et

On the plus side, the Steelers game is after the bye, so Cable, HueJack and Marshall will have 2 full weeks to gameplan and scheme for ways to beat that defense and contain Roethlisberger, Ward and Mike Wallace.
Worth noting that Wallace is basically the receiver DHB was supposed to be: blazingly fast, big play threat, able to clear out space underneath.
The Steelers got him in the 3rd round.

Moreso because I see him as a perfect slot WR, not because he’s white. But yeah, the Welker name probably sticks because of him being white, but so what man.
No way derogatory coming from me.
*************************************
Sorry J, I don’t think you will see Nick Miller roaming the intermediate part of the field, 5-9 yards down the field, which is almost exclusively what Welker does.
Has Miller had any type of catch like that, ever? Even in the preseason? Every time we see him, he is stretching the field, using his athleticism to make fairly impressive catches, and is waaaaaay faster than Wes Welker ever was (he ran a 4.8 at the combine, 7 years and two knee surgeries a go).
Nick Miller is much more similar to the other smallish NE WR, Deon Branch.

I like what we have here in Nick Miller. He made a catch that DHB could never make in his wildest dreams. I say they expand his role and give up on DHB already. DHB can’t make a catch unless he is wide open and facing the QB. He has the speed and athletisism to be more than a possession receiver, and throw in the bad hands…
I am throwing in the towel on DHB. Promote Nick Miller!

Veldheer on left side with Gallery looked like road graders. This is a combo to exploit going forward. Mario was eventually forced into coming back on the field because of Satele’s concussion, but he should watch and learn what a real LT looks like. The more he stays on the bench, the better we are.

I mean, really…Murphy is probably going to need to rest up and heal a couple of weeks, or they should force him to anyway.
If we had the 2 Millers and Ford with JLH, we’d be fine. We just need to rush like we yesterday. 300 + yards rushing a game is nice. Also mix in more plays to Marcel Reese. He is a name that the NFL is going to hear about before long.

Ryan Clady came in and started as a rookie and was allpro level. His coaches trusted that he would develop and be a stud. They invested thier patience. I think we would be wise to do likewise with Veldheer.
I’d also like to see some acceleration of Bruce Campbell’s schedule. He has too much raw talent to not develop him ASAP.

October 25th, 2010 at 11:41 am
Through 7 games last season, we scored 59 points. Yesterday, in our 7th game, we scored 59 points. Talk about improvement!
October 25th, 2010 at 11:43 am
Mari is not a bad LT I just think that he desn’t have the mentality needed to be consistent there. That’s why I was so adamant about us putting Veldheer over there instead of wasting time with him at C I think he has what it takes to play there and be very good even great if he stays after it. He just has a nastiness about him that you have to have to play there. Mario seems to have lapses but I think he would be very good at RT. If any of you saw CC yesterday you know why Bruce campbell isn’t starting yet. CC is so smart and technically sound until Bruce really gets that position down before he even gets a chance there. CC played very well. And I lve the new scheme we have now. We’re pulling and trapping and playing a more power style of blocking. It’s starting to be a very god system for us. The Oline is starting to settle in and could be very good in time.
October 25th, 2010 at 11:44 am
Gater he caught two passes
October 25th, 2010 at 11:45 am
The Wide Receiver position is the easiest position to get talent, really they are a dime a dozen after the truly elite. Guys like Brandon Lloyd and washout Mike Williams (the one up in Seattle who was once a Raider) get 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th chances to succeed. They eventually find the right team and the chemistry of the team breeds their success.
DHB at #7 overall was such a reach, can only be considered a bust, when you consider what we might have had at that pick, plus you are adding insult to injury paying him $23mill guaranteed.
Nick Miller and Chaz Schilens make combined a fraction of what he makes, and I’d take either for the on-field productivity.
October 25th, 2010 at 11:51 am
I also think people are beating up on DHB it bit too much this offense is still getting out of the blocks it has a long way to go (passing game) let’s just take things as they come. We don’t have a standout WR yet their still developing. Give the kid a chance to do so as well. We’ve been playing musical chairs at QB and the Oline and it has affected everyones production.
So i think as time goes on you’ll see DHB become a HUGE factr in this offense, it just takes time which fans just don’t understand or want to understand.

Last night on one of the Denver radio stations they were going through the bad drafts the Broncos have had and pointing out the players the Broncos COULD have had instead…after they were done blasting the Teblow pick, they pointed out that they COULD HAVE drafted Veldheer instead of Zane Beadles in the second round lol….I guess Veldheer made quite an impression on that talking head.

In poker, that’s a “tell”..in the NFL it’s close to “player? pine….pine? player”

yesterday,in Denver, 59 points scored.

Checking in from San Diego. Another great Monday down here. I stayed away from this place for the game for the first time this year. Glad I did, I got to completely focus on a BEAUTIFUL game. One for the ages.
Now string 2 in a row together fellas. I watched it again last night and every aspect of their play was flawless. That left side of the O-line is a force. Veldeer’s run blocking is outstanding. Him and Gallery pancaked people all day. Keep him as the starter for LT from here on out.
Later Nation, have a goo week.
^^^^^^^^^
Yep….once Jared gets used to the snap counts and does not false start as much…it looks like he may just be the bookend LT this team as been looking for.
He has the upside to continue to learn and play well, compared to Mario making the same mistakes in his 4th year.

Where’s the Cable Turn the Corner update, Jerry?
+++++++++++++++
I said I wouldn’t bash Cable this week, but I think this observation doesn’t go too far…..Cable is under a ton of pressure the next couple of weeks. The team just demonstrated how great they can be and Al Davis saw it all….now Cable has no more excuses…he can’t throw the players under the bus anymore. He can’t throw Hue Jackson under the bus anymore. If the team does another patented Cable Flop next week he could be fired immediately. That would show that he is a complete failure at getting the team ready to play in back to back weeks….again.

Don’t think the laws, regarding concealed weapons, get any stricter than Ca. laws. damn ridiculous. And to apply for a permit to carry a concealed weapon? Have to get a permit in each county you go to, sometimes from each city’s police chief.

Worried about stalkers, Richochet?
=======================
lol…hell no.
Business, at times, tends to put me in situations that carrying isn’t exactly a bad idea, even if the local pd’s disagree.
Besides, I’m an ardent supporter of visibly carrying, which CA is trying to overthrow at the moment. Long as my clip is separate from the chamber, on my belt, even by a thin piece of fabric, in it’s separate slot, it’s legal.

Of course. And Hitler was no Christian. Understood.

True Muslims should unite and jihad against your own extremists, because they are the biggest threat to the Muslim faith. The more the extremists grow within the Muslim faith and the more attacks they perpetrate, the more likely it will become that the rest of the world will eventually tire of the BS and just take care of business. I suggest you clean your own house or we’ll eventually be forced to turn the desert into glass….but not until the oil runs out of course.

What a great win!! Without a doubt, the best moment in Raider football since the Superbowl defeat in 2003. I was looking forward to watching the NFL Network highlights later that evening, but instead all we got to see was about 4 highlight plays and absolutely no discussion about the Raiders incredible performance by Marucci, Sanders, and (that obviously on drugs) Michael Irvin. Michael Irvin just giggled the whole time when they showed the 4 meager clips. You would think that if a team scored 59 points, on the road for that matter, that it would have been the highlighted game on the NFL Network. Instead we got to see almost every play from EVERY OTHER GAME. Our game got about 30 seconds of mention, while every other game got about 4-5 minutes each. I am not imagining things…It is so obvious how much the NFL hates the Raider organization. The only thing I am giggling about Deion and Michael, is the fact that the Cowgirls will be 1-5 after tonights game…”HOW BOUT THEM BOYS”…….LMFAO!!!!

McFadden got his 11th career TD yesterday…despite Cable rarely allowing him in on goal line situations over the past 2.5 seasons.
That is 11 Tds in 30 games with 318 carries and 68 receptions.
It took Fargas 7 seasons, 92 games, 827 carries and 77 receptions to get 10 lifetime TDs.
But it was funny watching him bounce off the invisible goal line for two years while McFadden watched on from the bench as Cable tried to make his butt buddy look good.

Don’t think he did that much with the Niners..Rice was there for most of T.O.’s stay..started afterwards as he made his way around the NFL..do recall him having fun with the Sharpie, PomPom’s, etc…
Sure there were other instances, but only one I recall that he stirred up crap was when he was asked if Garcia was light in the britches, where he answered “If it walks like a duck” etc..
Admit it..T.O. is needed on the Raiders, and if he was on the Raiders, and was a scoring machine, you would have his jersey, and all would be forgiven.

Watched game last night. It was all Mcfadden and Denver’s mistakes. An a little running up the score. I’ll keep my name at “Al Davis Raider” all week because when you put up 59 on Denver, it looks a lot like the ’60s again. But after watching it, I dunno…. Campbell can not pick up blitzes. And you also have to factor in the new hitting rules. Could that have played a roll in all of those missed tackles on DMac? He’s faced defenses worse than Denvers. Why not a game like this beforehand? Just being negative.

Id have to agree. It still feels good. Only times ive seen games like that is on saturdays not sundays. However im not looking past it, hopefully it goes down as a huge boost of confidence to our team. Sundays game is the bigger test.

Lets see two or no three wins in a row now! DMC is a beast, highest avg yards per game this year for a back. Lmao at all these guys with crushes on this or that QB. 10.7 to erect a statue for you to worship. Go back to the 9ers we don’t need ya. You know who you are….

Dakota,
Those radical bastards are killing Muslims in Egypt, India, Lebanon, Jordan, Etc…. Hard to get rid of them when you helped so much in the 70’s & 80’s. You did a great job! They are well armed & military trained.
++++++++++++++
Aren’t the Egyptian and Jordanian armies militarily trained? And even with your first hand intelligence on the radicals, you still can’t handle the job? Then tell your brothers in Pakist@n to stop holding out and let us in to finish the job…everyone knows Pakist@n is just using them as leverage to try and get us on their side in their fight with India, and that just is not going to happen. Well, it might happen under Ob@ma, but long-term, that isn’t going to happen lol. 2012!

Our runningbacks will win us more games than our qbs.

U.S. loved Russia being in Afghanistan because they wanted it to be their Vietnam. The enemy of your enemy is your friend.

Is there any doubt at this point that Hu jack is the difference? he had the offense fired up in a way we have never seen cable do. How many times have we seen this team stink it up one week and then follow that up with an equally bad performance. Not this time! Hu jack kicked them in the pants and they smoked the donkeys and made jack assess out of some of you in the process. Power running, and vertical passing, Davis football!

You can either follow the money trail or you can believe politicians. Your choice.

Seattle is much like San Fran imo
running game with Lynch/Forsett should be the focus
passing game of Hasselbeck/Williams/Butler/Carlson doesn’t scare me.
Orton/Lloyd/Gaffney/Royal/Thomas managed next to nothing!
Seahacks defense is very good though …
====================================
Their rushing D is like 2nd or 3rd in the league. If the rushing game is shut down, and it falls on Campbell to make up for it in the air?
Dicey..especially at home before a crowd that is hungry for a repeat performance of yesterday
October 25th, 2010 at 1:03 pm
Mistic, was yesterday our fourth or fifth Super Bowl win in a row? I can’t recall…

I think you’re reaching, because I cannot recall many times when Cable has thrown players under the bus. Outside of Russell I just don’t remmber anyone, I think every coach is under pressure to win. Especially the Raider coach and this thing with the QB’s is a real problem thye neeed to settle on one as the permanent starter.
I think the work he’s been doing on the Oline is starting to show results. What I like about Cable more than anything is that there is NO DRAMA he doesn’t have aspirations to go anywhere else he’s not looking for more power and he’s not a self promoter.
This team just needed a few quality wins so they could start believing in what he’s selling. They have that now I think they can run off 4-5 straight wins and if they do they’ll seise contrl of the division. nce they do it’s over they will be a very tough out for any team. The speed on this team is phenomenal.
If campbell had playeed decent from week1 we would have a 5-2 record. But that is not due to coaching that’s due to newness of the QB which as you saw he is starting to settle in with this new offense which is scary. I think we can average 30 points a game for the rrest of the year if we stay relatively healthy.
October 25th, 2010 at 1:04 pm
Oakglenn,
I gotta give it to you. How you make all your claims and keep a straight face is beyond me. Bravo dude.
October 25th, 2010 at 1:05 pm
priest, campbell didn’t even play decent yesterday. Our running game opened it up. Campbell could not pick up their blitzes even early in the game, when they were only down by 31…
October 25th, 2010 at 1:05 pm
How bout zach miller stepping in at left tackle, scary but was still dope to see.

Why, again, did we care that the Soviets invaded Afghanistan?
+++++++++++++
To prevent the USSR from taking a step closer to having a warm water naval port…and just because they were the Russians.

============================================================
Campbell beat the blitz, he beat coverage, zone and man to man. He threw deep, he improvised, he threw short, he did it all. he stepped up in the pocket, he broke out of the pocket, he stood tall, and he threw on the run. Most of all he displayed what the haters said he didnt have, the ability to be tough and lead. Bouncing back and setting the tone for the entire team. The first drive was all Campbell, the team fed off of his performance. It wasnt about the numbers which were outstanding for the record, it was about that thing that the heart of lion club wants to deny him. The intangibles.
October 25th, 2010 at 1:07 pm
I’m convinced Mistic1 is 15 years old.
I mean I guess the Nick Miller pass and the PI call were vertical throws, but this win was attributed to anti-Davis offensive philosophy. Go watch it again.
Just cause we ran the ball for a bunch of yards means it was Davis Ball.
Don’t get me wrong, I back up Al more than I should, but you are just too funny.

Where’s the Cable Turn the Corner update, Jerry?
+++++++++++++++
I said I wouldn’t bash Cable this week, but I think this observation doesn’t go too far…..Cable is under a ton of pressure the next couple of weeks. The team just demonstrated how great they can be and Al Davis saw it all….now Cable has no more excuses…
=========================================================
Yeah, I have to agree with this one. Not only did Al Davis see it, but the players and fans saw it to.
I think people are going to expect this team to COMPETE week in and week out. Those blowouts, hopefully of the past, are no longer going to be accepted.
This team has to be razor focused this week. Seattle is a good team.
Now, who start as QB this week?
October 25th, 2010 at 1:07 pm
I was impressed with the touch campbell displayed on the deep sideline ball to nick miller. Equally as impressed with the catch.
October 25th, 2010 at 1:09 pm

—————————–
This I agree with
The first drive was all Campbell
—————————–
This is just stupid. I think the first drive was all O Line and scheme. Zack ran a drag and then cut up the field WIDE OPEN on the sideline and Campbell still managed to underthrow it.

Come now man, you know as well as I do that these guy’s will NEVER EVER man up and give Mr Davis his due. They use the Al Davis be damned phrase now to indicate that the coaches somehow went against Mr Davis and THAT”S why we won. They are so full of crap it leaves a stinky trail, on one hand the team cannot win because they play his style then all of a sudden they don’t. LOL
They’re a bunch of gutless cowards who only come out when the sun is shinning. They know he biult the team and hired the coaches but then he’s too dumb to know what offense or defense they run. If he didn’t want what they do he would never hire them. He hried them for the schemes that they run and he signs off on all schemes before the season even starts. But they want to tell a different story because that way he gets zero credit.
They are a bunch freaking frauds……………….period

I have a McFadden rookie card. Need about 10 years worth of games like yesterday. lol
