Nick Miller injures ankle

By Jerry McDonald - NFL Writer
Friday, October 29th, 2010 at 1:09 pm in Oakland Raiders.

Nick Miller, who has taken over as the regular punt return specialist and was in line to get some snaps as a wide receiver against Seattle because of an injury to Louis Murphy, injured ankle at practice Friday and is listed as questionable.

It was too early to tell if the injury is severe enough to keep him out of Sunday’s game against the Seahawks at the Coliseum.

“He was limping when he came off the field, so we’ll see,” Raiders coach Tom Cable said.

If Miller can’t play, Johnnie Lee Higgins would assume the role of punt return specialist as well as serve as the third receiver in all offensive packages along with starters Darrius Heyward-Bey and Jacoby Ford. Murphy is out with a lung contusion and Chaz Schilens will miss his eighth consecutive game recovering from minor knee surgery.

Miller caught his first pass an NFL player last week, a 32-yard sidline reception from quarterback Jason Campbell.

Cable made official the foregone conclusion that Jason Campbell would be the starting quarterback, but was encouraged by Bruce Gradkowski’s progress.

“In fact, I think if had to do it, I think he could go in and play,” Cable said.

Cable did not rule out making Gradkowski the backup quarterback behind Campbell. If that is the case, it’s not out of the question Gradkowski could be available to start against Kansas City the following week, although the smart money is probably on him coming back following the bye week.

Cornerback Chris Johnson was limited at practice Friday but has not yet passed all the mandated tests following a concussion and will have a chance to do so Saturday. If Johnson can’t play, Cable said rookie seventh-round pick Jeremy Ware would assume the role as nickel back, with Michael Huff also a possibility as a corner in some packages.

Those who did not practice and were declared as out were Murphy (lung contusion), Schilens (knee), defensive tackle John Henderson (stress fracture). Listed as questionable and limited at practice were Gradkowski (A-C joint), RB Michael Bennett (hamstring), TE Zach Miller (arch), LB Travis Goethel (lower back), LB Thomas Howard (knee), LB Kamerion Wimbley (groin), Miller and Johnson.

More to come later . . .

    Like I said, two weeks ago, I was agreeing with the guy, and he snaps on me, like my post said the opposite of what it did.

    ——————————————————

    I snapped on you?

    I have no idea what you are talking about from 2 weeks ago.

    Really only recall me clarifying Gardowski to you.

    Why don’t you refresh my memory since you keep bringing that up?

    Like I said in my last post, I got to go… I have no idea really what the topic was, but I vividly remember agreeing with you, only for you to tell me I was wrong. Lending more credence to the fact that you do not fully comprehend what you’re reading… Apparently I am not the only poster who insists you twist things around. I am also not the only poster who believes you’re bi-polar, or something similar.

    Enjoy your day Hill, have fun listening to the game on itunes, or whatever you do that keeps you so well informed.

    Dig through the posts my friend, you’ll find it.. Or, contact the leaders of this site, and ask them to add a feature in which we can click on a poster’s user name and find all of their previous posts. Enjoy your weekend Hill

  10. RaiderRockstar Says:

    any idea if DHB is going to have the flu again?

    ***

    if DHB has a goose egg as far as production on Sunday – one of two things will have to happen:

    #1 Ford & Higgins play the role of “starting” NFL receivers

    #2 other guys like Zmiller, Myers, Reece, DMAC & Bush pick up the slack

    either way, we’re gonna have to get creative on offense as short handed as we are at WR

    Schilens, Murphy, Miller OUT = DHB, Ford, Higgins only

    If Miller is out expect to see DMC in the slot.

    It would not suprise me to see that guy they signed to the ps this week suit up.

  15. J Hill Says:

    this is exactly what New England was complaining about in an earlier post.

    ——————————————————-

    AIG,

    Stand on your own two feet, and stop looking for NE to co-sign you BS.

    You matter of factly said Gardowski put the team on his back. I simply asked you if Murphy had anything to do with it, and here we are.

    Do we need to repost it for you?

    You also why no one wa bashing Camplunkett for leaving pts on the board, and I simply asked you how Gardowski taking a sack/fumble before the half = Bush closing a series with 3 straight runs.

    Your answer?

    Gardowski didn’t even play in that game.

    LMFAO!

Go back from post 1 of this exchange… if you can’t see that you’ve got some issues going on, then I suggest you take a trip to the local shrinks office, sit on his/her couch, and cry to them about how New Englandraider called all of HIS FELLOW Raiders fans “bandwagoners”

    he feels pressure every time he checks his bank account and sees more and more money coming. I think it’s pretty obvious that DMAC, Miller and Ford are going to be leading the team in receptions on Sunday.

    Hopefully Campbell can get it done. I think with Grads in there I’d be very confident about beating Seattle and optimistic about a win over the chefs.

    It’d be real nice to see Grads go on Sunday because, make no mistake about it, this is a huge game for us. We’ve gotta build momentum on last week. This is one of the more winnable games we have going forward. Psychologically pulling to 4-4 going into the showdown with KC would be huge.

    Hopefully Nick Miller’s ready also. I think he could contribute to the passing game and come out of nowhere with a big game if given the chance.

    SF was smart enough to shut down the run game and double Zach Miller. simple recipe for beating Oakland (unless we beat ourselves, ahem Arizona)

    I disagree with the desire part. I think the guy works hard but football is natural to some people and not to others. The guy is a track athlete that is trying to play football. I feel strongly that catching is something you are either born with or not. I have heard professionals said that you fight it when the ball is coming your way rather than making it your 2nd nature.

    The game to get Chucky fired in Tampa was packed with meaning.

    ……………….

    What I meant by games with meaning are games with any kind of playoff implications, overall record, etc, not pure pride wins in lost seasons. We’ve won several games for pride. Denver in ‘04 comes to mind. And, yes, Chucky’s ‘win or go home’ game at the end of ‘08. But that’s not what we were discussing. We were discussing games that meant something record wise. And, the Raiders haven’t won one since 2002.

    I think we need to take that up with the coaches mayne.

    It seems like I don’t see DHB getting the same routes as Crabtree, Maclin, Andre Johnson and the likes.

    Seems like they put him on mostly vertical routes.

    I’d like to see some type of attempt to get him involved in the game with slant routes, the reverses that are going to Ford and Murphy, and some intermediate routes.

    How about a quick bubble screen or something?

    You think DHB is feeling any added pressure this week?
    “sigh”
    I hate the amount of pressure this guy has been forced to play under. It doesn’t matter who is to blame for the pressure either. That debate gets old. I just hope he can deal with it all, and prove he can play at a higher level than he has. Krikey! I would be happy with average at this point.

    ——————————————————

    His job is Simple Run, catch, block, not always in that order. I dont see how playing a childs game brings this precieved pressure. I’ll trade a pressure day with him anyday.

    ———————–

    In a sense, you’re right, but whatever the job the odds are you don’t have to do it in front of 50,000 people and millions more dissecting your every move in slow motion in an extraordinarily competitive field with little room for error.

    It may not be life and death, but there’s pressure there to be sure.

Nnamdi is great against physical wr’s (see andre johnson) so he’ll shut down Mike Williams and they don’t have much of a TE or Rb out of the backfield threat to burn our slow LB’s so we can focus on stopping Lynch. Their secondary is weak, Bruce would expose it regardless of who the receivers are. Besides LB, QB is the only position they have an advantage over us talent wise.

  119. LA to TheBay Says:

    Most receivers are bound to fail in this offense.

    Short routes are disallowed and intermediate routes are only complete if Campbell isn’t too scared and/or the WR is WIDE open.

    Al Davis must be pretty upset when he looks at a team like the Chargers who still manage to have the #1 offense using a vertical passing attack with WRs with names like Buster Davis and Legadu Nenee.

    The system is broken, Al. You need a QB to pull of stiff like that and you need to invest in one (a good one, not JaMarshallow Truffle redux) and get WRs who can catch.

    If you really want to see Cable ‘go rogue,’ pray for some quick hitters. Speedy WRs with questionalble hands and a QB afraid to pull the trigger or get the ball deep downfield and you keep trying to go downfield.

    Ease them into it. Get the ball in the hands of an athlete and let him make a play.

    We gotta remember that ‘taking what the defense gives you’ is just a cute saying and Al would rather take what he wants.

    When the team is good (and I mean real good), it’s beautiful. Man up and beat the guy in front of you. Huge home run plays. We all love it and its great fun to watch.

    If you can;t execute it with the players/scheme that you have, it’s time to diversify the playbook a bit.

    I was thinking we might just see it this weekend with the Smurfs in there, but with Nick Miller the Roster Spot Killer (yeah, he got demoted again. Sorry, Nick) going down, It will probably be the same ol same ol from that group.

  140. The Real MaddenRaider Says:

    From an NPR article:

    Cops Say Yes

    On the other side, Proposition 19 also has some unlikely allies; a group of former judges, prosecutors and cops are all for legalizing pot.

    “No one in the history of marijuana use has ever died of an overdose from marijuana,” says Stephen Downing, a retired deputy chief of the LAPD.
    From NPR Special Series “The New Marijuana”
    A marijuana plant
    Do Looser Laws Make Pot More Popular? Not So Far

    Government data show that Americans who admit to using pot have been holding steady since 2002.

    Downing says marijuana is less harmful than alcohol or tobacco. And he says arresting people for possessing marijuana is a waste of time for police; he says instead, they should be solving violent crimes and targeting those controlling the black market.

    “Marijuana provides 95 percent of the cartels’ profits,” says Downing, citing the hundreds of murders along the U.S.-Mexico border attributed to the drug cartels. “And they’re using the hundreds of thousands of gang members to bring about their distribution, their collections, their enforcement and their assassinations. We have a major, major violence problem, and if we take the cartels’ profits away, we’re going to start drying them up.”

    Downing says taxing and regulating marijuana would be a start.

    William Cox is another member of Law Enforcement Against Prohibition, or LEAP. The former LAPD sergeant and L.A. county district attorney says officers are more likely to bust young African-Americans and Latinos on marijuana charges.

    “The white kids are not swept up in this because they are able to have the resources to get out of it if they are caught,” Cox says. Police officers often will let them off the hook if they catch them with a small amount of marijuana. “If they are white, middle-class and acting respectfully toward the officers, they’re told to go home.”

    We dont want nothing like what happened in Spain to happen here in the States

    …………

    Or like 9/11.
    ________________________________

    What Happen in Spain Is more of a credible threat in the Bay Area becuase of the unstable relationship between the community and Bart police, Public awareness about Al-Qaeda’s love for blowing up filled train stations. They already tried it in New York Last year

    Key words: Acting Respectfully

    After reading about Anthony Graves today, I can see why Black folks get a little militant when dealing with the police. Still not the best way to handle the police imo.

    Dhidee, what credible terrorist threats does the “community”, as you put it, of the bay area pose?

  162. The Real MaddenRaider Says:

    Aig, the cop that Vegas is quoting says in the same sentence that suspects have to be white and middle class to be given the benefit of the doubt by police, as well, not just respectful.

    In other words, this officer says that blacks and Latinos caught with small amounts of marijuana can be as respectful as they want, they’re still being charged for possession. All a white suspect has to do is show a proper attitude and he sent on his way.

  166. The Real MaddenRaider Says:

    Dhidee, you said the community is a terrorist threat to the bay area. You brought up Spain’s terrorist attack as an example of that the “community” in the bay area is capable of.

  169. The Real MaddenRaider Says:

    It’s likely, Drexl. But I hope Denver and SF try to get Gruden too, because that means Al will try to get him.
    I want Gruden here.

  181. Just Fire Baby Says:

    Raiders 19

    Seattle 17

    Complete snoozefest with about 6 turnovers in the game and no real flow to it.

    Rolando McClain will continue to improve, Campbell will play OK but still not get the WR’s involved, Raiders win on FG’s and capitalizing on turnovers.

  182. Drexl Says:

    I decided after the Kiffin debacle that the Raiders really only needed an OC and a time out coordinator. We have them covered.

    Is Ware better than McFadden?

  184. The Real MaddenRaider Says:

    Time has passed? What’s the point in that statement? Gruden is only in his 40s. Is he too old to coach now? Considering our GM is 80? lol. Right now Al Davis is pretty much running the show, we all know that. And that means we’re using pretty much a vertical offense and man defense. You want to stick with this, and you’re telling me “time has passed”? I just want to go back to 2002. You want to go back to the ’60s! What’s more realistic?

    Exactly!!!
    Anyone following this team must know by now that as it stands Al is the HC/GM of the Oakland Raiders. Until that changes, I don’t think Cable is doing such a bad job. Did you see how far he threw that red flag last Sunday?

  192. Just Fire Baby Says:

    Irish Red can only be used for Denver road games.

  193. The Real MaddenRaider Says:

    Drexl, overall, Cable has been awful. I can’t discern what you’re saying in regards to who’s a better head coach in the NFL between Gruden and Cable. Who do you think is better between the two? It sounds like you’re leaning toward Cable. Do you really think Tom Cable is a better NFL coach than Jon Gruden?

  194. Just Fire Baby Says:

    Well I’m off to go to from this Police Station to the one back home before 10pm.

    Very untrue statement….I want the Raiders to win every game…Gruden had his time here as coach. Those days have passed and NFL has changed since then. Its all good. Gruden brought an attitude that was needed at the time with a bunch of aging vets. We got a young team now and Gruden aint building a young team into a title contender. Not his style. Maybe he can go to some veteran laden team and do well but not here

  252. sirblitzalot Says:

    I don’t think JC is the key to victory. I think Darrin McFranchise is. That means Valdeer plays LT the way he did Sunday and if Satale can do the same at center, life will be great for JC. Don’t ever ask JC to carry this team on his shoulders, that is a low probability outcome. He plays very well when the field is tilted downward (figuratively), in his favor. If the playing field is level, meaning Seattle can contain our run game, and keep the score close JC will probably crack under pressure.
