Cable Q&A
By Jerry McDonald - NFL Writer
Thursday, October 28th, 2010 at 4:09 pm in Oakland Raiders.
A transcription of coach Tom Cable’s daily press briefing Thursday with Bay Area media:
Cable: Satele and Shaughnessy came off the list, passed their tests for the concussion stuff. Hiram is off the (injury) dlist as well. On the list, Murphy DNP, Schilens DNP, Henderson DNP, Chris Johnson DNP. Limited guys would be Bennett, Zach Miller, Gradkowski, Goethel, Howard, Wimbley.
Q: Hiram??
Cable: He’s had a hamstring, sore hamstring but he’s off the list.
Q: Is Gradkowski closer to being able to play?
Cable: Yeah he is.
Q: Chance he may play Sunday?
Cable: I don’t know at this point. He is much better, starting to throw the ball more and more now. But we haven’t done a lot with him yet.
Q: How do you weigh guys who are hurt with the bye week coming up?
Cable: I don’t know that you can do that too much in this league. If you think they’re going to go next week they’re probably working this week kind of thing. And if they’re not ready to go and they don’t do anything this week then it’s highly unlikely in my opinion that they’d be ready to go next week.
Q: Do you know your starting quarterback?
Cable: I think for sure we will tomorrow, definitely.
Q: If Bruce is healthy does he start or would he be No. 2?
Cable: If he’s healthy enough that he can play then he’ll get all the work tomorrow and we’ll go for it. If he’s not then I can tell you it’d be Jason and we’ll move from there.
Q: What do Miller, Ford have to do to take pressure off QB?
Cable: Really just do what they’ve been doing. Nick has the luxury of being in this thing Year 2. Jacoby is improving daily and the game’s not too big for him. Just go do what you know is necessary. They both have a good understanding of what we’re doing. So it’s just an opportunity for them to go out and make some plays.
Q: Will both keep returning kicks?
Cable: Yes.
Q: Is there any chance Murphy can play this week?
Cable: No.
Q: Long-term with him?
Cable: It looks to be a week for sure then we’ll come up with some thought probably a week from yesterday, next Wednesday, as to whether or not you can talk about him next week.
Q: How key is it to get to .500?
Cable: I think that’s good for us. That would be very very good for us. But the focus has been let’s go out there and improve on what we need to and get ready for Seattle and play our butts off, and that stuff will happen. One thing we’ve all kind of learned is don’t worry about the winning and losing, worry about the process and being ready to play and what it takes to beat this opponent. Stay focused on that.
Q: How eager are you to have a game like you did last week at home?
Cable: That’d be awesome. That’d be a great thing for our team, for everyone. But it’s a whole new week and every week is such a different animal. You’re playing a team that’s playing with confidence, they’re 4-2, leading their division, they’re second in rushing defense, they have a tremendous special teams group so you just have to attack this animal the way you need to to beat it. You can’t worry about what’s before or after. Just worry about now.
Q: Similarities between the two teams?
Cable: Maybe a little bit but I think there’s a lot of differences too. Some of that probably comes into the strategy part of it.
Q: How much does it help having common opponents this year?
Cable: It does. We have seen them against the same people we’ve played vice versa, so you have a pretty good idea. You know some of those people and some of the matchups and what’s involved in it because you went through it.

So Tony, your’e not saying Al Davis doesn’t have tremendous control of the team, and the performance of the team over the years, just that you choose focus on the players only???
I don’t understand.
=====================
again, not sure what your point is, koolkell.
where did I say Al doesn’t have control of the team? no where.
clearly stated owners can affect team. just like GM’s affect team. and coaches.
BUT you get rid of the gm? I still love my team. get rid of the HC, and get another? same thing. owner sells or dies, whateva? same thing.
do I get mad at the owner? of course. but I still love my team. Do I cuss out coaches? who doesn’t? has nothing to do with the team.
again, what’s ur point?
mine is I don’t confuse the two.
Do you?
October 28th, 2010 at 4:26 pm
If they don’t lay an egg and can win this game versus the SeaChickens to win 2 in a row since forever….then I’m pretty sure the KC Queef game will sellout.

LOL @ mistic.
someone throwing a little tantrum? hey, was a stupid comment, and your reaction shows you know it is.
Like it or not, Bey was the worst of the worst, and is still the worst of the worst. you replying that he caught a couple of balls, and that it told you that he’s new and improved just makes you appear slow, and confused.
oh, and stupid. let’s not forget that.
now, tells us all again how Bey looks so good this year compared to last year.
=======================================================
Your lack of comprehension is shocking.
He has improved from last year. He has done things this season that he did not, could not do last season. On this planet that is commonly reffered to as improvement.I made no claims about him being a good player.
That fact that you say he is the worst of the worst has no bearing on my comment. Reading is fundamental, give it a shot, then you may be able to have legit counters for my comments, other wise you are simply exposing your self as someone thats should be skipped over in the thread.
==============
if ignorance is bliss, you’re the happiest guy I know.
again, you’re just being stupid. you got exposed for a stupid comment, and now you’re trying to right it, and failing.
You actually stated that Bey did something he did not, could not do last season.
That alone is stupid beyond belief. He caught a couple of balls. stupid to state last year he couldn’t. stupid to state catching a couple of balls means he’s now vastly improved.
next time think before you just ramble on.
or, expect more laughing, and finger pointing.

After all the pounding DHB has taken last couple weeks on here, and things looking grim for him, with the pressure on him to stand up as the #1 receiver this week, could it be his break-out game? Like the way McFadden broke-out against the Titans.

October 28th, 2010 at 5:22 pm
GG
I sure hope so.
October 28th, 2010 at 5:30 pm
GG,
DHB has to start contributing. That’s the criticism I have of him. He’s a starting wide receiver pulling in 1 catch here and there….or having to be targeted 15 times to get 3 or 4 catches.
I am not expecting him to be Hakeem Nicks or Johnny Knox.
But damn, he needs to at least match Louis Murphy!
October 28th, 2010 at 5:38 pm
It’d be pretty telling if Ford was getting receptions ahead of DHB, making plays, having a stat sheet like 6 rec 80 yards to DHBs 2 for 20.
They’ll no doubt use Ford on slant routes and such, but I cant see why they dont do that more with DHB instead of just go and hitch routes. Are they trying to make him a ‘Randy Moss’.
Seems a bit unfair if they send him deep all game and the QB never just lets it loose, let him go get it once or twice a drive.
Ford playing Flanker i suspect, meaning he’ll get all the first looks, run more variety of routes. But perhaps we’re being too predictable for our opponents to cover with how we utilize our receivers.
If DHB’s is to break-out they’re gonna have to actually game-plan a game with him being the focus of attention, the go-to guy on 50% of pass attempts.

GG,
Part of me thinks the Raiders are trying to do what you said…basically run him deep all the time.
But I think Hue Jackson is smarter than that…at least I hope so.
I hope DHB breaks out big time this weekend. The Raiders NEED HIM to break out big time….Only makes for a more potent offense.
I still don’t get the lack of screens and other short passes to just get him started.

SnB you are right, he needs a lot more short passes thrown his way. In the Rams game he was good and he didn’t catch any deep balls. He made people miss and got good yac.

Last year dhb had a total of 9 catches for the year, he has surpassed that total at the mid point this year (improvement). Last year he had lots of drops, this year he has far less (improvement). Last year he couldnt catch in the middle of the field or in traffic, he has done both this year (niner game improvemnet). Last year he could not catch and turn up field, he has done that this year. This is called improvement, find a dictionary and double check it if you need to, google it or what ever it takes. To try and argue with me over the definition of improvement is a waste of our time. I can actually feel my I.Q dropping having had to have such a low brow elementary dialouge.

If you are going to quote me be precise, otherwise it makes you look like a liar putting words in my mouth. I did not say he couldnt catch a couple of balls? I said he made some clutch fourth quarter catches this year. When did he do that last year?
I never used the phrase “vastly inmproved”. that is your desperate attempt to shift the focus and context of my statement, it wont work.

October 28th, 2010 at 5:58 pm
That’s totally right SnB. If we utilize DHB with more variety, then he would become an added weapon. Currently he’s taken out of every game for us simply because the Raiders run him deep every down.
Each added ‘weapon’ of variety means the defense has far more to attempt to cover. More hesitation and broken coverage, miscommunication that will occur on the D. This week would be the perfect time to do that because Seattle no doubt are expecting the Raiders to do what they always do and would have game-planned as such.
And you’re right Guy, if DHB has shown anything it’s that he has very good YAC ability. Yet they stopped dialing it up after that one good game by DHB.
October 28th, 2010 at 6:01 pm
Bey has improved but he didn’t really have anywhere to go but up. He still drops too many balls and has a been a disappointment so far. He may be better off just sitting and learning for a while or being the slot receiver. Definitely better than last year though.
October 28th, 2010 at 6:04 pm
It’s obvious that JFord is getting it done in practice he’s already passed up JLH and he’s gaining on Murphy and DHB. Don’t be surprised if this youngster has a huge impact on this game Sunday they don’t really know his abilities. But they’llfind out Sunday we may have stlen this kid if this the type of player he really is to rise that fast.
That’s why I say to guy’s like SnB who just like to complain about everything. These coaches are doing everything they can to get playmakers on the field. You don’t bench your starting QB 6qrtrs into the season unless you are serious about doing that. So actions are much louder than words. This kids has beaten out JLH and is right there with DHB and Murphy. If you can’t see these coaches have control of the situation you’re blind.
October 28th, 2010 at 6:08 pm
Better off sitting DHB lol for who and for what?
We don’t have any probowl WR’s and wetehr you realize it or not he’s as good as any WR we have. So to sit him would be counter-productive.
LOL some of crack me up it’s like you think we have Jerry Rice and Randy Moss at WR.

I have to agree with part of this post, dhb seems to have been deemphasized after the ram game. probably not by design. I think a big part of it rest with the qb’s not giving him enough chances. This game will be a good chance for him to be a focal point of the passing game. I think he will surprise a few people. If you can catch 6 passes in an nfl game, you have ability, we now need som consistency.

Why bother with these cats bra. Time is the greatest teacher, and a years time or so, dhb will either pan out or be flushed out. i think his natural tools that cant be coached, plus his desire will make him a very good player for us in the near future.

This is about the time you decide it wise you shut up.
Pay attention, fool.
Take notes if it will help.
You stated “too early to give up. he’s showing improvement”
AND NOW YOUR LIST OF IMPROVEMENTS IS WHAT PLAYERS LEARN IN PEEWEE FOOTBALL. Yeah, you idiot. You just listed he catches the ball. He turns up field.
Again, you fool. YOU JUST POSTED THAT YOU ARE IMPRESSED WITH HIM, AND THAT YOU VIEW CATCHING THE BALL, AND TURNING UP FIELD AS SOMETHING WORTH NOTING.
Means you are an idiot. plain and simple.
It’s the NFL, fool. Not freshman year of high school.
isn’t what you mentioned what keeps you on the HIGH SCHOOL TEAM?
Yeah, thought so. Now shut up, idiot. You are not helping yourself with backtracking and crying.
Like I said earlier, you get slapped on by everyone, and still don’t have the balls to admit you’re wrong. that won’t change now.
which is good. I’m having fun.
October 28th, 2010 at 6:39 pm
BHP,
never let the fools get to ya. sometime in May I wrote that I presumed JFord would be the biggest impact player from the draft on offense. JVeldheer may indeed be that young man, but Jacoby is walking into a limelight given the chance.
of course commenters crapped all over my presumption.
you and I have both seen all of it for fifty years of Raiderdom. I see good things a-coming for the squad this week and the next and…
October 28th, 2010 at 6:40 pm

If you are going to quote me be precise, otherwise it makes you look like a liar putting words in my mouth. I did not say he couldnt catch a couple of balls? I said he made some clutch fourth quarter catches this year. When did he do that last year?
I never used the phrase “vastly inmproved”. that is your desperate attempt to shift the focus and context of my statement, it wont work.
If you dont have a basic command of the english language, do your self a favor,get a tutor, get hooked on phonics, hell go out and buy a speak and spell, but stop posting this neanderthal level trash. Your setting all of humanity back, with your uniteligeable musings

You are stupid, aren’t you?
First off, did I quote you? Do you know what quote means? Obviously not. I paraphrased. You know what THAT means? Obviously not.
And leave it to a full blown idiot to state “with your uniteligeable musings”. (By the way, that’s a quote, fool.) At least spell unintelligible correctly.

DHB will be a world-class DB if he cain’t be a world-class WR. Don’t worry about the young man. He’ll pan out.
October 28th, 2010 at 6:48 pm
I have a feeling they’re gonna key in on DMac, causing Bush to be a monster…DHB will have one defining catch, and Boller will be in due to Campbell getting blasted by either Tatopu or Curry…but still, Miller will break one on a punt return and with that we win the game…
Ok, hopefully everyone will have a great game! Misdirection will probably be the key…dial it up Hue!!!

Humumumu!!!!
morning Crew in the PM?
Raiderland has no time zone.
October 28th, 2010 at 6:54 pm
If you gave me the chice of any rec on this roster I would choose DHB for size speed and atheleticism. Murphy drops way too many passes and Chaz is way too fragile. At 6′2″ 220+ and a verticle 0f 43 inchs and his work ethic is Jerry Rice like. There is no other player that we have with his combo except DMC. DHB is bigger than DMC and faster you cannot ask for more.
This JFord kid is like a smaller version eventough he is 5′8″ he is very well biult strong. This kid has evidently tore it up in practice. So he might be the next player I would take, Murphy needs to stop dropping balls.
October 28th, 2010 at 6:54 pm
Don’t give the Seagulls too much credit. They have played a KC-like cupcake schedule and have milked it to 4-2. Time for reality to set in for the Puget Sound boys. Some Oakland Raider domination.

Hwnrdr,
you deserve a Humuhumu jersey. Someone on here must have a line to a good price on one.
on my way to the desert I passed through Salt Lake and met a man who was trying to avoid what was around him. Fair enough.
he was living in Glendive, Montana but was from the Central Valley of California originally. I mentioned the Raiders and he lit up. Raider Nation prevailed,. he was old-school and it made his trip to talk Raider football with one of the brethren.
October 28th, 2010 at 7:02 pm
That is true M…Seattle beat the 9ers, but got blown out the next week by Denver, I believe…the only winning team besides their own division that they have won is Chicago, I believe. Impressive win there…but the one that should stand out is that they won at home…but lost to the Rams in St Louis…up and down…still not taking away from them…they are a team on the rise!
October 28th, 2010 at 7:05 pm
Priest,
Correct me if I’m wrong but aren’t you and DHB tied for receptions the last 3 weeks?
I’ll take any other receiver on the roster when it comes time to play. Last game DHB was like Eminem on 8 Mile early in the movie. Gettin sick when it’s time to perform.
October 28th, 2010 at 7:07 pm
BHP,
you have a whole lot more inside knowledge than I’ll ever know in the Raider Org but I am able to grasp what I see from the available info. don’t sweat KK. he wants to be a fan but he has issues with certain perceptions.
October 28th, 2010 at 7:11 pm
Priest doesn’t have inside info on the Raiders. He just has the internet, just like the rest of us. Most of Priest’s truths comes “After The Fact.”

it appears Bey’s problem, or one of them, is tightening up, anticipating a hit, which is why he short arms balls, and has hands of stone. yeah, he’s fast, but laying a hit on someone?

October 28th, 2010 at 7:26 pm
All these WR’s are very young and developing some faster than others but as long as they all get to the same place, is all that matters.
I just don’t believe any of them is head and shoulders better than the other. They all need to get a lot better.

October 28th, 2010 at 7:46 pm
DHB is big and fast and he can’t catch.
He should be a safety.
October 28th, 2010 at 7:46 pm
DHB is getting better. He just needs one breakout game to get his confidence up. I think this week is that game. He must take advantage of being the #1 guy. He will have 7 catches for 105 yrds and 1 TD.

What’s the point in any discussion with you. You think everything they do is perfect. What’s to discuss then?
Also, this isn’t real life man. And anyone criticizing the Raiders does not make them a hater either. We aren’t talking about our country or someones family member…we in here talking about football man.
Have some fun with it.
If we can’t have a debate about DHB’s “production” or draft decisions or just playing Monday Morning QB….then what’s the point in coming into a blog….just slap each other on the back..

Can’t believe you said that. Bey has arguably the worst hands in the NFL. can’t even catch with his hands, catches with his body, which Jr High players do, and you make that comment?

Don’t get sensitive Priest but you say some left field stuff way too often. All those receivers you just named would have us sittin 6-1 or 5-2 at worst. D Coordinators laugh at us when we trot DHB out on the field. The DBs look for other things to do. I mean, what the hell is DHB clearing out?
October 28th, 2010 at 8:30 pm
Clearing out his lungs???
I hope DHB gets it together, though!
October 28th, 2010 at 8:33 pm
We’re not talking about DHB puttin up big numbers here. We’re talking about him just simply catching the damn ball. I keep a quarter in my hand when I watch the Raiders. When the ball is thrown to DHB, I flip it. I don’t even get upset at the outcome.
October 28th, 2010 at 8:35 pm
DHB is the BEST WR DECOY in the NFL PERIOD!!
October 28th, 2010 at 8:37 pm
DHB has been catching (at times) 3 balls a game, but thrown to like 15 times. He needs to be consistent because some of those balls were very catchable…that Houston game comes to mind…but Murphy did drop an easier pass! I can see Ford and Nicky passing him up…they got their chance, now its time!
October 28th, 2010 at 8:37 pm

yea, all do struggle. However none of the solid qb’s went through the first year and a half without having even one decent game. Bey has to struggle to appear mediocre. lots of college prospects don’t make it in the NFL, lots of them. facts are when you look bad as long as bey has looked bad, the odds of turning it around are very slim

Some of you fabricate things you say and expect others to accept them as reality.Do any of you know that DHB has dropped 1(one),that’s right 1 pass this year.Face it,you hate the guy because he was drafted #8,you didn’t want him,and he wasn’t an all pro his rookie year.No matter what he does he will never be what you want him to be.This BS that he can’t catch or he doesn’t get separation is exactly that BULL SH!T.Plus he regularly gets open and many times gets open deep but the QBs haven’t thrown him the ball and have under thrown him even when they try and get the ball deep.

October 28th, 2010 at 9:16 pm
Lefty,
I am not arguing or debating soft stuff like hands, route running etc….
My issue is 18 receptions in 23 games….
That’s just not good enough. He probably is getting better…and making one or two catches here or there are good too….but I dont’ think his current production levels are helping this team to winning games right now.
It may not be his fault. I believe the Raiders probably just run him deep too much….
Regardless, I am just looking for a serviceable receiver. What are we talking about 2 receptions a game?
He’s got to get a lot better and quickly. Right now he appears behind many of his peers

Keep pounding your head against the wall its fun to watch!
October 28th, 2010 at 9:23 pm
That is your opinion that he is behind others.In my opinion he is doing what is asked by his coaches.All I know is near the end of games and they ask him to run a 15 yd comeback instead of a go route,he is open and passes are completed to him.You don’t know that its possible by design he is running deep patterns to open up the underneath stuff for others,therefore he isn’t being targeted for a large number of receptions.You are just upset because he doesn’t get 5-10 catches a game.Maybe that is by design.
October 28th, 2010 at 9:30 pm
Yes Lefty its by design for DHB to have 1-2 catches per game and play with one hand tied behind our back. Thats what the coaches are striving for, right? Who wants to have a WR catching 5-8 balls a game that would be ignorant eh Lefty?

Finally someone hits the nail on the head!
Lefty points out that DHB has 2 cases of production and that is the most accurate comment about DHB to date. He is in his second year and is averaging one (1) case of production per year.
Can’t wait for 2011 to see what game he produces for us next year. I hope it’s against the Chargers.
October 28th, 2010 at 9:46 pm
I think DHB isn’t far off where they want him to be his #’s need to get better, no doubt but to do that they hav e to throw him the ball. If he drops it it’s his fault but you cannot catch what’s not thrown to you.
If Grads had been starting all 7 games I think his #’s would be double what they are and he’d have 3-4 TD’s But we’ve been playing musical chairs with the QB’s which has affected the entire offense. If we can get a consistent starter at QB everyone will benefit.

I sure hope Cable has these guys come out of the gate with flames firing out of their backsides and take it to seattle hard, come away with a big win, and shut these lame sport talk-show guys up.

THis the kind of lunacy I’m taking about, DHB isn’t near the player T.O. was 10 years ago I said he had better hands. Nick Miller has better hands than T.O., I have better hands than T.O. but I can’t play in the NFL can I. Having better hands doesn’t make you a better player. T.O. is one of the most dominant players I’ve ever seen he just drops way too many passes.

It’s hard talking to these guy’s in a respectable way because they’re so damn arrogant in their ignorance it’s ridiculous. Make a point then let someone else make a point but they come at you with this attitude that they know everything and they don’t know squat. That’s why I attack them the way I do.
=====================
You’re a coward, old man. easy to notice that right off. someone says something your old ass can’t handle, and you start swinging your cane around, take your teeth out and threaten to gum their leg, and start with the same “I insult them because”.
You start the insults because you get exposed as being ignorant.
You rush to retreat because you are a coward, who can’t back up his words.
You’re a punk, TJpriest, nothing more. An old bitter gnarly dejected stubborn cowardly punk.

October 28th, 2010 at 9:58 pm
So let me get this straight about DHB. We draft a WR in the 4th round so we can feature him and use the #8 overall pick to draw the defenders away from him?
That’s like buying a Lamborghini Gallardo to drive everyday to work and run errands then on a nice Sunday afternoon, pull out the Scion to take a stroll down the beach.

October 28th, 2010 at 10:03 pm
Braylyn Edwards another great talent who drops way too many passes. There aren’t many great WR’s in this league when it comes to great route running and hands yards after the catch and reliability.
There are a lot of guys that make great plays and are very dangerous players if they catch the ball. But pure great WR’s there are only a few. DHB has a great chance to be a great playmaker he may never run great routes or have the greatest hands but he can be a devastating weapon on this team.

October 28th, 2010 at 10:08 pm
I can recall a couple of times we got good production from our receivers:
Last year when someone stepped on DHB’s foot before the game.
Last week when he (I can’t believe I’m saying this) “CAUGHT” a cold.
October 28th, 2010 at 10:11 pm

October 28th, 2010 at 10:14 pm
Mike Williams was the biggest bust outta those great teams the last 7 years from USC he’s in his 5th season and he finallly understands what it takes to play in this league. You’ll see him Sunday he might be the biggest concern of the coaches in this game. He was cut outright TWICE that’s how difficult it is to be great at that position. Route running is the toughest part of being a WR because it involves knowing your offense and the defense equally as well. You have to be on the same page as the QB yet adjust on the fly to what the defense is giving you. While the QB does the exact same thing. Getting separation in the NFL is when you have enough space to fit another human in between you and the defender approx. 15 inches. Three to five yards is wide open.
October 28th, 2010 at 10:16 pm
Son listen if I told you you still wouldn’t know. Because I’ve already told you. Let it go son…….please
October 28th, 2010 at 10:16 pm
dhb has to get the ball more. if we had any of the better qbs on the team he would have better numbers. cant fault the man for not getting the ball.
October 28th, 2010 at 10:17 pm
The only way Priest can be right about Who’s got better Hands than Who, is if all of them are gay.
Priest, are you a Catholic Priest?
October 28th, 2010 at 10:17 pm
Not trying to hate on him, but does DHB only have 1 drop all year? I remember one against AZ on our first drive and I think one against the rams and the niners.
October 28th, 2010 at 10:19 pm
would like to see dmc used as a wr alot in this game. get him 6-8 catches and 20 carries. im looking for 200+ total yards on sunday.
October 28th, 2010 at 10:21 pm
Mike Williams is a bad example. Receiver was never his problem. His problem was the fact that P90x wasn’t popular until now.
October 28th, 2010 at 10:23 pm
Nite Fellas.
Pay attention! Priest is about to say something that he won’t remember saying by 1 am.
October 28th, 2010 at 10:23 pm
DHB scks.
The fact that he did not play last week is one of the reasons we scored so many points.
October 28th, 2010 at 10:24 pm
heybey has 4 drops. 2 against stl,1 against sf and az.they have to go to him throughout the game. against sf he caught 2 early on and didnt have another 1 until late in the 4th. cable gave some weak excuses for why he doesnt get any reverses. if they want to do it then just call his damn number. hell, they gave ford 2 against dungver. u mean they cant do the same for him?
October 28th, 2010 at 10:24 pm
Mike biggest problem to be honest was his weight he couldn’t get separation because he was too heavy.
October 28th, 2010 at 10:24 pm
why does he suck?
October 28th, 2010 at 10:26 pm
Mike symbolizes the perfect physical possession receiver doesn’t he? Lets see how he matches up against CJ/Routt and Nnamdi. Hope he doesn’t blow up a press, I saw him do it to Leon Hall before in college.
October 28th, 2010 at 10:28 pm
In 18 games DHB has caught 23 passes for 285 yards and no touchdowns.
Nick Miller and Ford are better receivers, but they aren’t on scholarship.
October 28th, 2010 at 10:29 pm
Sorry, DHB has one touchdown.
October 28th, 2010 at 10:32 pm
Armond
I agree with that stat I’ve seen him drops a couple this year but I’ve seen Murphy drop a lot more. But for soem reason no one hates on him. It’s the draft status and the money. DHB is nopt a bad player he is a young player on a team that is trying to find itself offensively he’s just high profile. All he has to do is keep doing what he’s doing and things will work out. Hard work always pays off and that kid works his ass off. Consistent QB play would help tremendously.
October 28th, 2010 at 10:32 pm
monta ellis is the sh!t!!! brien trippin off tradin him for that oj mayo sh!t. oj hella overrated. dude wasnt that great at usc and he aint better than monta now. the warriors need size in the front court off the bench more than the starting guards. dumars and thomas was a small backcourt that kicked azz.d wright can be an x factor this year. we should whip the clipps 2morrow.
October 28th, 2010 at 10:34 pm
Armond when they say he sucks they mean “I hate him” what kind of player he is isn’t even a consideration. They hate him therefore he sucks. lol
October 28th, 2010 at 10:35 pm
I also can see us in this game doing a lot of WR rotation. Tho Ford will start, and probably put up some numbers, I think we’ll see JLH and Miller get plenty of snaps too and all make plays. I just would like to see DHB become a big-time target too.
October 28th, 2010 at 10:36 pm
Bauce talking bout trading MONTA?? where is he I need to have a word with him.
Bauce come in and talk Bball with the Priest Monta in particular. Why would you trade him?
October 28th, 2010 at 10:37 pm
priest, every1 looks at stats but dont watch objectively at how those stats are accumulated. a good 2 great qb makes wrs even better. u have get them the ball where they can make plays on it. if he dropped everything then they would have a point. ford and miller aint better without actually proving it. was ford better when he helped lose the game against sf? nmiller is better just cuz of 1 catch in denver? dhb made a more spectacular catch against seattle in the preseason jumping up and twisting around while keeping both feet in bounds but that doesnt count somehow.
October 28th, 2010 at 10:39 pm
Love Monta man kid is a baller for real. He is at superstar atatus right now he’s just on a team with no pub. Put him in NY and kid would be in the top 15-20 players in the league.
No man leave this roster alone let it gel.
October 28th, 2010 at 10:41 pm
Armond we have what you call children acting like children when it comes to DHB. No prob the coaches know.
October 28th, 2010 at 10:43 pm
yeah bauce on one for that. i was hopin i could catch him cuz this is 1 of the few times i disagree with him.
that scholarship talk is stupid. mm34 was public enemy #1 cuz of a stupid report even tho they all loved him last year. now they luv him again and we havent heard anybody ask for brown to play over him for several weeks now. they hate al davis but like every player he drafts that they approve of.

i said to a friend that the dubs could win 40-42 games if healthy and he laughed. told him that the starting 5 can play with any in the league. a top 5 back court and a top 10 pf-c combo. the x factor would be dorrell making a name for himself now. dude can play without needing the ball much cuz of his defense and all around game. if d.wright has a good year the dubs can compete for that 8th seed. 16-18 pts a game with about 5-6 boards and solid d is all they need from him. anything more is a bonus. the starting 5 compliments each other well so the roles r clearly defined.

I agree. I been saying the same thing. And don’t forget, Steph Curry had 25 and 15 with a sprained ankle.
The problem was our front court. David Lee is a huge upgrade over what we had in my opinion.
When this team gels especially, when the big men off the bench get healthy, we will definitely be a playoff contending team.

Armond back to business, I think the W’s will make the playoffs because their backcourt is so dynamic they can attack you inside by penetrating or assist. They can both shoot the lights out . You simply cannot double the post on them they will kill you outside. Out bigs are very quick and athletic. And finally we can clean the glass.

October 28th, 2010 at 11:39 pm
priest n armchair
thats the whole point of having a small back court. speed quickness and shooting is what separates this duo. they complement each other well tho they can do the same things. ellis is more of a penetrator who can shoot and steph is a shooter that can penetrate. all this talk of not defending is bullsh!t. people have to defend them too and they cant. that lee biedrins combo will be one of the best in the league. both will average double doubles and can pass out of the post. we need a better bench. r.williams needs to be like ricky pierce and vinny johnson was back in the day. come in and just score while carney can play d and run the floor. gadzuric, bell and that damn radmanovich has got to go. they dont give us anything out there. cant wait to see what udoh does. the 1rst step in developing a team is the starters and then u get bench help. im tellin yall, watch out for dorell. he held back a lil bit last night but its a wrap once he gets comfortable. dude can get to the rim and smash on fools.
October 28th, 2010 at 11:50 pm
I was very surprised the way D Wright can play he can spread the floor as well with that 3. I’m sooo unfamiliar with this team it was hard to know who was who. Some of those guy’s I didn’t know who they were. But I saw so much potential out there it was exciting to watch. This will be a fun year for W fans.

1st somewhat meaningful game weve played in years
October 29th, 2010 at 3:45 am
First somewhat meaningful game we’ve played since September, R22. Opening week is meaningful for everyone. Week 3 was quite meaningful as well. Chance to go 2-1.
Opening week last year was pretty meaningful.
Opening week in ‘08? Well, that season was over before it started considering The Raiders were running their head coach out of town before it even began.
The last meaningful game we’ve had this far into a season would probably have to be week 6 in 2007, where we went into SD with a 2-2 record, and our first shot at winning 3 straight since 2002.
The Raiders lost all of the above games, btw. Something to take note of when getting your hopes up for “meaningful” games. Truth be told, we haven’t won a meaningful game since January of 2003.
October 29th, 2010 at 3:52 am
true but winning 2 in a row and being .500 in late october is more meaningful then being 1-0 for this team. Unless of course we would have went 2-0, then my point is moot.

although it is technically illegal to blast sea gulls, in the NFL sense it is okay to pound and dismantle the birds. look for a thorough tearing up of a flock from Seatown on Sunday.
then there come the wannabes from KC. the smoke and mirrors of the Donkeys 6-0 start last season came crashing down, the same will be true of this year’s KC mirage.
5-4 going into the bye is already on the plate with all the fixin’s.
Good mornin’ AMers.

Tom Cable’s daily press briefing Thursday with Bay Area media:
Chris Johnson DNP (from the article above)
Those who did not practice were wide receiver Louis Murphy, cornerback Chris Johnson, defensive tackle John Henderson and wide receiver Chaz Schilens. (last blog)
Wednesday Cable Q&A
“Shanughnessy was limited and Chris did not practice.”
A little bit of a headache. You have to go through the proper protocol
October 29th, 2010 at 6:52 am
MM should start at SS, Branch can compete with Huff at FS, or we can play Huff at NB/ CB.
Huff has 4 INTs in 4.5 years, 3 last season, so 1 in 3.5 seasons!
Huff misses a lot of tackles!
Huff Sucks at FS!!!!!!!

the O-Line played pretty doggone well last week despite 3 penalties from Veldheer at LT

Mitch has been solid for 3 games. he’s either WLB or a replacement for Branch at SS.
Huff = 16 game starter at FS. GET OVER IT!

If CJ cant go I think they will play Huff at the nickle, they did last week after CJ got the concussion.
Seattles Run D may be statistically # 2 in the NFL right now, but they havent face a RB playing as well as DMAC is either.
Week 1 – Held Gore to 38 yards on 17 carriers, mostly in the first half though. Early turnovers put SF in a position to pass a lot, forcing them to abandon the run.
Week 2- Held Denver to 70yds on 35 carries, Denver hasnt generated much of a rushing game on anyone, and Seattle got torched for 307 and 2 TDs by Orton.
Week 3 – The gave up 89yds on 18 carriers to Tolbert and Sproles (sproles had 1 carry), and also allowed Rivers to absolutely decimate them for 455 and 3 tds. Special Teams let downs by the chargers are the only reason they won
Week 4 – 70 yards on 22 carries for Jackson
Week 6 – 61 yd on 14 carries, 4.35 ypc… not a great showing by seattle, Chicago was forced to throw it 40 times due to seattle scoring off turnovers
Week 7 – 113 yds on 20 carries or 5.65ypc against AZ.
I think Seattles run D is WAY overrated, and also they are VERY weak against running backs on the perimeter in the passing game.
October 29th, 2010 at 7:24 am
RR,
Are you high today, do you have selective reading, or are you just trying to be funny?

“London, England (CNN) — Hit the road, Jack.
Last year’s most popular name for baby boys in England has been knocked off — by Mohammed.
That’s not immediately obvious from data put out this week by the Office of National Statistics, which declared Wednesday that Oliver was the single most popular name for boys born in 2009.
But a CNN analysis of the top 4,500 boys names shows that, when different spellings of the name are lumped together, Mohammed is No. 1.
Oliver and variations come second, followed by Jack, Thomas, Charles, Harry, William and Daniel.
The United Kingdom is about 4.6 percent Muslim, with just under 2.9 million Muslims according to the Pew Forum on Religion & Public Life.
And Muslims have a strong tendency to name their sons Mohammed.”

Tuned into that Playbook show on the NFL Network last night before bed and was surprised to see the Raiders gettin’ some love. Sterling Sharpe said he’d been on the Raiders bandwagon all season and thinks they’re finally starting to put it together. Theismann agreed with him.
Sharpe and Theismann think we’ll win because of McFadden and because the Seahawks rush defense is a bit of a paper tiger. They showed footage showing how pulling guards can devastate their linebackers and said Gallery can be used that way and should have a big game.
Bilick disagreed saying he thought the Seahawks D would force the Raiders into 3rd and long and then use their blitz schemes to confuse the offensive line and pressure Campbell into mistakes.
I’m calling Raiders 27-20.

I’ve thrown Huff under the bus many times, and I agree he could tackle better, but to be fair to him, he’s usually one-on-one with a running back in space coming full tilt at him. That’d be hard for Ed Reed to deal with.
And Huff has since regained his job from Eugene.
October 29th, 2010 at 8:07 am
This not only a winnable game, this is a showcase game for a few players. Offensive line, can they open holes for dmac against a stout front 7? The seaguls are tough up the gut, this is an advantage for them vs. Satele and carlisle, however we have an edge on the outside/ leftside against the pass rushing d ends. More important can the o line keep campbell up right?
Spot light is on Campbell, DHB, & Ford. The seaguls are awful against the pass, especially when the rush doesnt get there. DHB should be featured in the short game I imagine the gulls keeping safties high to counter our blazing speed.
Lastly our front seven vs. The berkeley bears. Forget the stats & rankings carroll wants to run it. They have pac 10 power & speed. We must take that away & hope for an early lead & force hasslebeck to try & win it throwing. He is not the same guy that went to the super bowl a few years ago. Put them in predictable passing situations, this what our defense is built for, & where they thrive. Our pass rushing 3 technques can get up the field, our d ends can let it rip & get after the qb. Walk romac & mm34 up to the line, and keep them guessing when the blitz is coming. Some times natural pressure some times blitz, & watch hasslbeck wilt like cabbage in the sun. Our press man & single high are also at their best in this scenario, as witnessed in the lamb game, and against the donkeys.
We must pass early, shut down thier run, & mix the blitz and four man rush to destroy their offense. Dont get beat wih special teams this one of the gulls strengths.

Speaking of Ed Reed, here’s an entry that ranks high on the list of “Things that make you yell “f#@k” when thinking about the Raiders.
In 2002, the Raiders took Philip Buchanon with the 17th overall pick and Napoleon Harris with the 23rd.
Guess who was drafted one spot later at 24? That’s right…Ed Reed.

Huff wrote an article on his blog at MichaelHuff24.com talking about how the D and Marshall decided to abandon the zone coverages before last weeks game, because while it was putting the secondary in a position for run support, they were getting torched in the passing game. Good read.
I have never been one way or the other on Huff, but he has DEFINITELY improved his play as this season has progressed. He wont make the probowl, but he is a good safety.
October 29th, 2010 at 8:15 am
DHB should get several catch & run opportunities in this game, both millers will see single coverage if we can get Dhb off early. Dmac will get on the edges, contrary to popular belief he is a great mudder, he runs with power on the wet field. When i watched him in college this was the main difference between him and felix jones . Also because the gulls have really rush happy d- ends the screen game will reemerge, both to dmac & bubble screens to the wides. I would love some ghost reverse motions with dhb miller & ford, that would also slow the rush way down.
October 29th, 2010 at 8:17 am

Are you really asking for examples. I thought you don’t smoke, but your memory is worse than mine.

October 29th, 2010 at 8:18 am
Seattle has been very suseptible to the screen this year. If you give DMAC the ball in space he is going to hit another home run this week. He will be the difference in the game for us I believe.

October 29th, 2010 at 8:20 am
Another way we can punish the gulls & thier over agressive rush ends, more zone read from the pistol, bring any of our wides dhb, ford or miller on a revrerse motion to hive a pitch option.

October 29th, 2010 at 8:22 am
Lynch will be the featured back for seattle, which favors our Run D. Lynch is not that fast (comparitively speaking), so if we miss him in the hole he wont be breaking for 60 on us, plus we wont have guys in zone coverage way out of position. I think Romac will have his best day as a pro this week. Step up and attack the hole, he may not tackle lynch alone, but he will slow him up enough for our line to get there. Forsett doesnt scare me, he is probably still shook of Missle Mike!
Rock I love the idea of MM34 playing WLB, he is a sure tackler, good in run support, and can cover TEs and RBs all day. If they moved him there full time, he would be our best LB hands down IMO

“Michael Huff’s inability to tackle is killing us
He should have made the tackle on Arian Foster and on Derrick Ward’s 33 yard run. That is 14 points he just watched run by him.”
“When the Raiders give up a big play on the ground, Michael Huff has either missed a tackle or been missing in action.”
“It’s tough seeing games here on the east coast so I have to rely on articles. What I’ve gathered from those articles is that Forte from the Chicago game and a running back from the Whiners had big gains because the last line of defense (Huff) for some reason either took a bad angle or whiffed on the tackle. A 1st rounder who’s been on the team as long as he’s been shouldn’t do that.”
“21-Frank Gore: Bounced back strong with 25 carries for 149 yards after his two fumbles last week contributed to a loss against Philadelphia. Picked up Tyvon Branch on safety blitz to allow Smith to unload pass to Nate Byham for 7-yard gain on the 49ers’ first TD drive. Took direct snap and showed good patience and cutback ability to get manufacture an 11-yard gain. On third and 11, he took on safety Michael Huff 3-yard shy of the first down and plowed forward another 6 yards for the first down.”
“…and Matt Forte torched Michael Huff in much the same way Saturday night. Of Course, in the Huff case, he never even got a hand on the ball carrier.”
October 29th, 2010 at 8:34 am
What about Groves?…he had a nice game. What is just the blowout or is he turning the corner?
October 29th, 2010 at 8:34 am
Podunkian monkey,
I’ll give you an example of Huff missing a tackle with no one else around when Huff starts playing Defense by himself.
#352 is retarded idea and argument.
Next Monkey please!
October 29th, 2010 at 8:37 am
Finally…we’re favorite to win -3 against a team who is first place in their division!
October 29th, 2010 at 8:39 am
blaming every long running play on Huff without reviewing the play is foolish.

I don’t see Seattle racking up more than 17 points. I have them pegged for 13, actually. 1 TD (Mike Williams vs Routt) and 2 FG’s
Raiders 14 Seahacks 13
JCamp will find Zmiller in the redzone
DMAC will cash in on a running play from 12 yards out
Seabass will miss a FG with less than 3 minutes to play, but the defense will hold

October 29th, 2010 at 8:50 am
RR,
I agree that the DL & LB should get most of the blame (our 6′1 205 S is not going to stop every RB, but he should tackle better instead of throwing a shoulder like he is MM, and he should atleast touch the guy and not let him go like he did Forte.
Cable is an idiot, but even an idiot will get it right sometimes.

October 29th, 2010 at 8:59 am
I love all the safety talk.. Can smell it a mile away.
My take on Huff, is that he is excellent in coverage, but he does need to improve his tackling skills… he tries to grab way too much.. Sort of like he is playing flag football.
There also seems to be a ton of miscommunication between he and Branch, and as we now know, according to Marshall, it’s on Branch.
I wish Huff would learn to be more physical, and tackle better.
RRS
No offense, but I watch every minute of every game in crystal clear HD on Sunday Ticket and Huff does indeed have issues tackling. He tries to grab guys up around the shoulders far too often… He is putting up great tackling numbers, I’ll give you that, but he gets dragged far too often, and the grab a$$ form of tackling needs to go.
October 29th, 2010 at 9:01 am

I think it help our pass defense.. I don’t like it when Wimbley or Scott wind up covering WR’s, they can’t.. In SF, Wimbley was in the slot covering Craptree on one play.. We can’t allow that.
As for MM, I like the way he has played when given the opportunity. I was impressed with his interview after the SD game.. gave his mates all the credit.
I honestly like Huff… He is good, but he does struggle bringing players to the ground, I think it’s technique related and fixable.

Caution!!! Caution!! His logic and thinking is based on many spitballs, that have hit his forhead as a child.
BSJ, doesn’t like Condo, as it reminds him of the many children, who with amazing accuracy hit his forhead in school.
My warning to all who debate BSJ with Condo is, react with kindness and sympathy and remember, some from Michigan just aren’t lucky to be a specialist like Condo.
To Mas diamante, and New England Raider, you guys “get it”, others we hope to use more stimulus money to help in their critical thinking regarding Condo.

has Saginaw Heritage High School ever produced a better football player than Stuart Schweigert?

I have changed my opinion slightly after Marshall flat out stated there is a communication problem with Branch.. A lot of times when in a zone, you see Huff and Branch looking at each other funny.. I guess we now know why.
I agree we should rotate our players to suit their skills..
Off topic, look at how often Shaughnessy gets a sack or makes a play on 1st down, and is rewarded by spending downs 2 and 3 on the sidelines.
Huff needs to be on the field for all 3 downs, it’s that simple… Maybe if Branch wasn’t always out of position we would not even notice Huff’s inabilities.
October 29th, 2010 at 9:35 am
Huff and branch are not very good safeties, especially in the zone schemes, which most teams want to run in the red zone. The fact that we have been terrible in the red zone is a direct result of the poor safety play in the zone coverage.
Huff we all know is a horrendous tackler, but dont give him too much credit for coverage either. I think he is better suited to play nickle corner, or even opposite area 21, than he is a single high. Yes he can cover tight ends, but our single high must be able to stay deeper than the deepest receiver rout, and needs to take the ball away. When have we ever seen huff close down over the top, taking inside leverage and snatch the ball away from the receiver? In man to man the corners play outside shoulder forcing the receivers to the inside, the single high should be flying in on deep routes to knock down balls and intercept. Huff stinks at this.

DHB should be our nickel back.
October 29th, 2010 at 9:42 am
Mike Mitchell should never be moved to full time line backer. he wont be able to hold up against the run as a full time player in that position. Not because he doesnt have the skill to tackle, he absolutely is one of our best tacklers, but because he is too small to take on o-line men down after down.
Also the beauty of what we are doing with him is the flexibility, he brings to the table. he pays safety, nickle corner and nickle line backer, this keeps the offense guessing and off balance. When he lines up in the box with romac, and walks up to the line the offense has no way of knowing what or who is coming.
He has become a guy that the offense must locate before every snap, simply making him a wlb would take away one of our greatest strengths, and subject him to a physical beating that would shorten his career.

I have been a Raider fan for every. I think Al’s problem is that he drafts the best ahtletes available. That’s not always the right approach. If you are not willing to change your philosophy to fit your personell, you have to draft the personell that will your philosophy. This is especially true when it comes to defense.
Perfect example is what Charles Woodson has been able to do since leaving the Raiders. This guy could end up being a Hall of famer. We did not use him right, just like we don’t use Huff or even Namdi right. Huff would be a beast in a defense like the jets or the ravens and Namdi?? If he could roam the field, he would have 7+ INT’s every year.

I notice that some folks here just want to say your wrong. others want to resort to name calling, very few will give examples or numbers to support their case. If you can make a valid case why huff is a good single high i will stand corrected. Single high must tackle and stop the deep pass, knock downs and ints. Does huff do this?

I dont think it is a matter of durability the way he is used today. However if you are asking him to take on o-line men down after down he wont last. This is why linebackers, have to be 235 and up to be every down players. O-line men are trying to get to the second level on run downs, mitchell cant take those guys on. he is excellent tackling backs and tights, and even blowing up blocking full backs. Let him continue to do what he does well. He makes our whole defense better in that role.

Huge upside? I don’t think so…I think his upside is average WR….that is the best we can hope for with DHB. Big difference bewtten DHB and McFadden….McFadden had proven he was good in college….DHB was never very good in college. He is what we thought he was, a fast guy with no hands.

Wrong. Nnamdi would get ignored REGARDLESS of where on the field he played. There is a reason they only throw 25 times at Nnamdi over the course of the year. The reason Revis gets more int’s is because opposing qbs cant ignore him. He isnt playing opposite Routt or CJ.

I am not sure a full time WLB is the way to go with MM… I like the current role as a Hybrid type… He sure looks to be lining up as a LB more often than not…
I just want to see the guy on the field.. he has been doing very well in all aspects of the game.. So if they want to call him a LB fine, if they want to call him a safety, fine.. If they want to keep referring to it as a Hybrid LB/S, that’s fine too.
Like I said, I do not like having Wimbley or Scott going out in coverage, especially against WR’s.

I cant really agree with this. Yes there are times when Als formula for athletes misses, but there plenty of times when he is right.
Also woodson while he played here was like area 21, in that he took away one side of the field, i dont have a problem with that. Im not comparing him to dion, but dion also many times was used in the same way, take away on side of the field making it much more simple for the rest of the secondary in terms of coverage responsibility.
October 29th, 2010 at 10:02 am
We utilize Nnamdi exactly the way we should. He will shadow a top tier receiver, a game changer like Fitzgerald or Johnson, otherwise he stays on the right side, eliminating that side of the field, freeing up the safety on that side to cover another guy instead of helping over the top, and forcing our oponents to try to throw to the left side almost exclusively.

============================================================
Area 21 has been roaming the field, shadowing the top receiver no matter where he lines up. The qb’s locate him pre snap, and does not test him. Area 21 is unique in that although he doesnt make many picks, his talent is being right on top off the receiver, and almost always in position to break up the pass. It takes an almost perfect play from qb and wide out to beat him, when he is on. There simply isnt any where to put the ball when he is in coverage.

October 29th, 2010 at 10:20 am
When you are going against a TOP tier WR, okay I can see you covering that guy 75 to 90% of the time. When Namdi is not on that guys you double him, let Namdi cover more field.
All week the offense is working on a way to eliminate the amount of plays to Namdi’s side of the field. It just seems way too easy to game plan against. This is why our pass D gets exposed. Revis will go against the best WR, but he also gets to roam and they do disguises to hide what his assignment is.

If he could roam the field, he would have 7+ INT’s every year.
============================================================
Area 21 has been roaming the field, shadowing the top receiver no matter where he lines up. The qb’s locate him pre snap, and does not test him. Area 21 is unique in that although he doesnt make many picks, his talent is being right on top off the receiver, and almost always in position to break up the pass. It takes an almost perfect play from qb and wide out to beat him, when he is on. There simply isnt any where to put the ball when he is in coverage.

He only shadowed Fitzgerald. Otherwise he has played his usual spot.

Right up until 3 weeks ago, dude was doing nothing. Remember his missed tackle on the opening play in Az?
This is a Raider bog, right?
Raider fans can’t praise a player when he finally starts earning his keep?

Without unions there would be no middle class. Before workers could bargain collectively, employers expected 12 hr. work days, 6 hour work weeks, no paid time off, dangerous conditions, etc.
Unions allowed regular workers to share the benefit from the profits they produced, and this gave them the time and money to contribute back to the growing economy.
Counter example = China. A few banker monkeys and a billion wage slaves.

So your answer is, less dollars due to experience.
Ok, were getting somewhere.
Now on to your issue with unions. Let’s set this debate up into context, for our discussion.
Originally, my reply was, to your problems with all unions and then we broke it down to, unions outside of the auto industry and then I replied, to your comment about the National Football League players Union.
So were do we go ,to direct our comments to, what unions. You can’t possibly broad brush and say all unions, regarding pay and revenues to all of them.
So here is your chance to select what Union you’re commenting about or bring up better examples for me to comment towards.
This will have to be a running debate,I have a meeting at 11:00 am, and I must get ready for.

He owned fitz. He lined up across from craptree and shut him down on several snaps. Craptree scored when area 21 wasnt on him. These have been the only two guys that warranted that kind of attention.
