McClain in the clear for Sproles hit
By Jerry McDonald - NFL Writer
Monday, December 6th, 2010 at 8:58 pm in Oakland Raiders.
The NFL has supported the contention of the officiating crew which ruled that Rolando McClain committed no foul on his knockout hit on San Diego running back Darren Sproles Sunday.
McClain unleashed a devastating blow on Sproles, who left with a concussion late in the first half after a 7-yard gain.
Some Chargers players said afterward they thought Sproles had been the victim of a helmet-to-helmet blow, although replays seemed to indicate McClain had delivered the punishment with his shoulder. CBS analyst Dan Fouts said as much on the air.
Not that it mattered, according to the pool report which quoted referee John Parry as saying, “We had three guys looking at it, the back judge, field judge, line judge. All three felt that (Sproles) gained possession, took a minimum of three steps and now he is considered a runner so helmet-to-helmet contact is off.”
Parry also said, “You can’t hit helmet-to-helmet on a defenseless player. He was not considered defenseless. He was considered a runner because the act of possession was complete the minimum of there steps were taken, so now he is deemed a runner so helmet-to-helmet contact is legal.”
The e-mail response from Corry Rush of the NFL office was as follows: “Legal hit. We support the pool report.”
Justice is served. A Raiders linebacker came up and delivered a clean, legal and punishing hit that removed a key Chargers player from the game.
Good to know it’s still within the rules.
If McClain had been fined, I would have been as confused as when officials rule on who has actually caught or failed to catch a pass in the end zone.

whack Sproales
December 6th, 2010 at 9:00 pm
hopefully sproles is suited up for KC. Also hope he plays and helps beat the niners, I am sick of their fans.
December 6th, 2010 at 9:00 pm
Put a fork in the San Diego Dischargers. They done.

4th!

If Kansas City wins in San Diego next Sunday, it will eliminate San Diego — which has won four straight division crowns — from the AFC West title race. In that scenario, Kansas City would be 9-4 and San Diego would be 6-7. The Chiefs would have a three-game lead with three games to go and they would hold the tiebreaker over San Diego based on a season sweep. Oakland can’t be eliminated next week when it plays at Jacksonville, but the Raiders know they are on thin ice and have to continue to win if they want to advance to the postseason for the first time in eight years.
December 6th, 2010 at 9:04 pm
And with that being said…..
Good Night Raider Nation!

I’m good brother. Really enjoyed yesterday’s game. We punched them in the mouth all day. I think it was even better than the Denver game because of how good SD is.
Agreed on the D and ST. I would even add the Oline in that as well. If we stick to grinding it, then we win. If Hue gets impatient or cute, then we will lose. I’d rather have reverses with ford/dhb/Murph all day vs Wildcat.
December 6th, 2010 at 9:11 pm
The Raiders could easily win out. The season will probably go down to the last week against Kansas Sh*tty. And most of you wanted to get rid of Cable.
December 6th, 2010 at 9:12 pm
Ok mcClain now if you can make that hit on someone not five feet tall. Then maybe we got something here. Now hit everyone that comes around you like that. It would be awesome to see ur salute more often. McClains a beast in the making. Mitchell could be one of al’s best picks in recent memory.
December 6th, 2010 at 9:12 pm
AIG- I was on the road during the game with no radio but had a good feeling, and jumped for joy when I got to a computer and saw the score. Ground game is legit. Can you imagine DMAC and Bush getting over a 100 yards each and then power in Reece……Will be a tough team to stop. Agree the o-line was good. You know the 0-line coach must of chewin on them all week!!! It showed.
December 6th, 2010 at 9:17 pm
The Raiders looked bigger and faster than San Diego. In fact they looked bigger and faster at practically every position. Throw in that the Raiders didn’t make mistakes and played physically, and there you have it: a beat down of the team that was arguably playing the best in the conference. In their yard.
December 6th, 2010 at 9:18 pm
Jmcclain, isn’t MJD five feet tall lke Sproles? I would love to see McClain do that on him.
December 6th, 2010 at 9:21 pm
More impressive was McClain’s solid wrap-up tackle of Mike Tolbert on a short pass play to hold him to a 1-yard gain.

R8,
pls cut and paste. I would love to have Carson here. I have a few blank jerseys waiting for the right QB. #9 would look great in a Raider Uni and our Oline will improve next year too.
—
I don’t know about Carson Palmer. He’s 2-10 this year with Ochocinco and TO to throw to.
December 6th, 2010 at 9:24 pm
DRH,
I hope you find a way to catch a replay of the game or try nfl.com for the hilites. Bush ran like a man possessed yesterday. He refused to go down on that TD run. DMAC laid out Weddle again on that TD run too. We ran reverses and always got at least 4 yds. Even JC used his feet to keep some drives alive. It was awesome man. Unreal!!!
December 6th, 2010 at 9:25 pm
ESPN AFC West blogger Bill Williamson writes that unless Oakland Raiders quarterback Jason Campbell really proves himself the rest of the season (he did perform well against the San Diego Chargers on Sunday), the team will likely bring in another QB as competition for him.
Williamson adds that Bruce Gradkowski might not be re-signed, given his injury history, and the Raiders could be left choosing from a pool that includes the likes of Marc Bulger and Matt Leinart. The Raiders don’t have a first-round pick, so trading for Kevin Kolb is probably out of the question, and top QB prospects like Stanford’s Andrew Luck and Arkansas’ Ryan Mallett (think Al Davis would like to have a QB with Mallett’s arm?) will be long gone before Oakland picks. There’s always the chance that a prospect like Auburn’s Cameron Newton or Washington’s Jake Locker has a Jimmy Clausen-like drop, but getting an impact rookie QB might not be easy for the Raiders this year.
For the above reasons, Oakland could be heavily in the mix to pursue Donovan McNabb or Carson Palmer if either is let go by his respective team this offseason.
=======================================================
Just speculation. Hes not what we need, too many turnovers and hasnt been the same since the knee. unfortunate but true
December 6th, 2010 at 9:26 pm
Guy: Haha would be nice to watch.
December 6th, 2010 at 9:27 pm
DJohn,
I hear ya. I will gladly admit that I am biased on him. Always loved his big arm and accuracy the times I saw him over the years. I know he has not been the same since the knee surgery but a change of scenery would do him good. I think its a long shot but we all have our favorites. You know Al loves to collect first rounders and at least Carson has been successful in the past.
December 6th, 2010 at 9:31 pm
AIG- Will do. I gather all the press and video clips I can. Unreal. I liked the TOP stat, held std to 21 yards on the ground, our ground stats, all those good numbers in a good old fashion butt kickin win. Will check in with you tomorrow evening. Lets roll baby!
December 6th, 2010 at 9:34 pm
I’m with ya. I STILL love Jeff George despite his record with us during the Bugel regime, but he did throw for like 4,000 plus yds. throwing to guys like James Jett etc. I’m a big fan of the big arm which is why I was so excited about Jamarcus.
December 6th, 2010 at 9:36 pm
Brian Baldinger said the Jags best chance to run would be against Oakland becuz Oakland “doesn’t do well against the run”.
Don’t these guys do any research before opening their mouths?
December 6th, 2010 at 9:37 pm
I know this is unpopular but I hope if he is available we pass on McNabb.His age is really catching up with him.Best scenario would be JC plays well the rest of the year and we draft a younger guy to groom for a few years-a Devlin or Enderlie type of guy-2nd or 3rd rd.I could also see the old guy give a guy like Leinart a look.
December 6th, 2010 at 9:38 pm
Most running backs haven’t been very effective vs us. Except for the Phins running backs, I can’t remember the last runner to do well against our defense. It has usually been something like a big qb run that has gained yards (Ben)
December 6th, 2010 at 9:41 pm
We have a Nasty defense that likes to hit and enjoys contact. If add another CB and OLB, this Defense can be top 5 defense in the NFL. We have the best CB & one of the best DTs in the NFL (Nnamdi & Seymour), and we have young talent in all other positions.
December 6th, 2010 at 9:42 pm
Well, I guess I’m the one who should have researched. We are 23rd against the run.
Drats!!! Baldy get’s me again…
December 6th, 2010 at 9:46 pm
We are tied with Pittsburgh with most sacks in the NFL at 36.
December 6th, 2010 at 9:51 pm
I’m trying to decide which was cooler -Darren McFadden smashing into Eric Weddle for the TD or the HUGE hit McClain put on Sproles.
December 6th, 2010 at 10:00 pm
too many to choose from….
McClain is one mean mofo but he was too big for Sproles. Not fair fight.
Dmac running over Weddle is impressive. Safety v. RB. Fair fight.
Not much talked about but MM34 put a frickin hit on Tolbert for a 1 yd loss near the sideline. I heard the pop on that one. RB v. SS. Fair fight.
Gotta go with DMAC.
December 6th, 2010 at 10:01 pm
Josh McDaniels fired!!!
December 6th, 2010 at 10:03 pm
Jeff George was not a leader but he can sure chuck the ball. One of the most impressive throwers of all time for me. It looked so smooth coming off him and easy to catch too. I was hoping Shell would let him play during the 2006 season.
Many of us were excited for Jawlarus. Number 1 pick overall should come with freakish abilities. Count me as one of those Jawalrus defenders until Bruce showed me the difference.
December 6th, 2010 at 10:22 pm
Wonder who’ll take over for him. I was kind of hoping he’d stay and keep f’ing things up for a while.
KIFFIN?!!! Are you serious? No way I’d even take the chance. He’d come in and be the next Shannahan beat us for 10 yrs. J/K

December 6th, 2010 at 10:28 pm
There are only 2 veteran QBs that we should maybe consider. . .Kevin Kolb, and Carson.
The only way we’d get Kolb is if we traded Nam, which IMO, no way. . .
We could get Carson, and I agree that it would be a good fit, but JC is actually more mobile, and while I love Carson’s upside, with our inconsistent o-line, stick with JC until a better veteran comes a long, and maybe develop a late-rounder or a young guy who is not on a team currently (Colt Brennan, Nate Davis).
And also Carson seems to not be able to win lately. . . not sure what’s up with that. . .
Our draft (even though its still way early) should focus on O-LINE 1st, no question (T, C as priority).
Then an extra LB or CB, and then maybe another H-Back/TE/FB type that’s similar to reece (but maybe a bit better blocker).
December 6th, 2010 at 10:30 pm
McClain would have to have been on his knees not to make near helmet contact. Sproles is so damn short it would be hard to hit him below shoulder level because he also runs very low.
All in all, it was a GREAT legal hit!
December 6th, 2010 at 10:31 pm
And continuing my previous post. . .
We don’t need WRs (yet). . . no matter what anyone says.
Its still too early to call bust on DHB, and even though its slow, he is a lot better. Louis needs more consistency, but was a steal for the 4th round, and obviously Jacoby and Nick miller are working out.
The only thing I’d like to see from our offense is more work on quick passing, which will have to come over the summer i suppose. Slants and quick curls are usually not that hard too catch and our WRs do get some YAC.
December 6th, 2010 at 10:31 pm
I know i’m going to get it for this one but to me Romac seems no different to me than when we had Napleon Harris, danm near the same guy
December 6th, 2010 at 10:32 pm
george impressed me when he took a monster blind side hit against kc and got up to keep slinging away…
December 6th, 2010 at 10:34 pm
Nah that’s fair. . .in fact I think Napoleon was faster. . .but I think the difference it Romac is smarter/better instincts. . . and getting better each game (so far).
Not too mention our d-line plays a lot better than the one Napoleon had. . .those were the days when it was our offense that carried the load, or else we lost. . .

********************
Our first pick (second round) should be Mike Pouncey (center). Then another O-lineman G/T or combo.
If we are not going to use BCampbell on the O-line, let’s convert him to a FB. He should make for a very fast devastating blocker out of the backfield. He should also be very effective at picking up blitzing LB’s & CB/Safeties.
The Jets have their “terminator” (John Connor). We’d have a vaporizer.
December 6th, 2010 at 10:39 pm
WOW that would be ri-donk-u-lous. . . 295 pounds. . .runs as fast. . (prolly can’t catch though. .but still)
Jb didn’t Pouncey go last year?
Actually I’m pretty sure the son of the great Steve Wisnewski is coming out this year. . .there also a guy from Oregon state that’s pretty good (C wise).
Tackle i’m not sure, there is that guy from Colorado who good fall to us. . .
But I agree I want a center 1st, was actually pining for Alex Mack (now on the browser) last year.
December 6th, 2010 at 10:41 pm
So if Albert Haynesworth comes available, do we take a chance on him? His main complaint was he didn’t want to be a NT in a 3-4 defense – bad for the knees.
Having him and Seymour or Tommy Kelly in the middle with Seymour on one edge with Houston and or Shonasty on the other edge would be a very formidable D-line.
What everybody think?
December 6th, 2010 at 10:41 pm
Oh sorry his uncle not son. . .playing for Penn State (Stefan Wisnewski)
December 6th, 2010 at 10:42 pm
Sean
Maurike Pouncey went #18 to Pittsburgh at their fistr round pick. He was a center too. Mike, his brother, is just as good.
December 6th, 2010 at 10:43 pm
No Albie, no way. . . mostly b/c of that crazy play I saw were when playing the eagles he literally loafed, fell to the ground and stayed their.
Part of the reason we are getting better is that guys are hungry, which is why younger guys make sense (or veterans that are good leaders, which he is not).
December 6th, 2010 at 10:44 pm
Wiz’s nephew, Stephen, will be gone within the first 15 picks. we don’t have a first round pick this upcoming draft. It was traded to the Pats for Seymour.

Sorry Dude But Pouncey is overrated!
We need Solid players like OT Gabe Carimi and C Rodney Hudson
December 6th, 2010 at 10:47 pm
Was that against KC or Seatle? I remember against Sea he took a huge blindside as well and kept humming away. It was the same game that we had a flea flicker and a wide open Ismael dropped it.
George was a bad fit for WCO. It required too much thinking for George. George was Lamonica for Al. Too bad Al matched him up with the wrong system.
December 6th, 2010 at 10:47 pm

At least we know he’d slap a congressman.
December 6th, 2010 at 10:48 pm
Oh I for got Marcus Cannon If we Get Him He’s A beast Coming out of TCU And not much press could be a steal for us
December 6th, 2010 at 10:48 pm
I know we don’t have a 1st rounder. . .
But since this is O line (and specifically C) we are talking about. . .guys will fall.
I will grant that Stefen may not be there. . . but Mike Pouncey would be ok, or Gabe for that matter.
I’m not sure if after that we goto right-tackle or guard though. . . either one i suppose is fine by me. . . I know bruce plays guard for us right now. . .but cable likes to move them around anyway.
December 6th, 2010 at 10:48 pm
We need to develop our Oline as our top priority next season. Any QB would look good behind a dominating Oline and ground game.

Hudson is top rated but a little on the small side for the NFL (6′2″, 285#). I don’t think he’ll cut it in the NFL unless he packs on about 25# minimum. If he’s that good he’ll probably go in the 1st round which we don’t have a pick.
Carimi 6′7″ 327# is good size but also looks like may be first round.
December 6th, 2010 at 10:51 pm
Agreed on Marcus Cannon. . .
And btw. . . i seriously think even if we don’t make the playoffs. . .if we win 1 more division game, Cable stays, and I think he should. . .
Not only has the team gotten better (which I understand is not just him), but our draft picks the last 2 years are almost all contributing/playing at a high level/getting better. I’ll take that and consistency all day long. . (so long as we keep punching the chargers in the mouth
)
December 6th, 2010 at 10:54 pm
Cannon 6′5″ 350# 5.34/40 should be around in the 2nd or 3rd round. He could be an option for ORT – Road grader type position..
December 6th, 2010 at 10:54 pm
From what i hear Bruce is Coming along a little faster now and could really push for Right guard or Tackle next season

Dude don’t worry about the pick. You know Al will make a trade and if we keep playing like this it wouldnt have been that good of a pick anyways.
At least this way the team actually saves money!!!
December 6th, 2010 at 10:57 pm
I don’t worry about Al’s money. Neither does he because what he’s spending belongs to the investors and not him. AD makes all his big buck from his AD Football INC Consulting contract.
December 6th, 2010 at 11:03 pm
I said the TEAM saves money. It helps us with the salary cap when we have to resign vets.
December 6th, 2010 at 11:06 pm
I think there are things that can be done with existing personnel.
Possible upgrades for Carlisle RG:
Walker.
Loper
BCampbell
MHenderson
Possible upgrades for Walker RT:
MHenderson

KBarnes
Our biggest problem that can’t be fixed right now is Satele at center. This should be our first choice in the draft.

If anyone should be blamed for the helmet to helmet hit it’s Sproles! But because he’s half as big as McClain people aren’t able to see that McClain clearly lead with his shoulder and SPROLES lowered his helmet and hit McClain on the side of his helmet. Is there anyone foolish enough to imply that McClain intentionally nailed Sproles with the SIDE of his helmet? Total bias against big defensive players. Watch the video. If McClain was a smaller safety and Sproles was a bruising power back would anyone have even brought this up?
December 7th, 2010 at 12:17 am
If the NFL would have fined McClain that would have been a joke. This is tackle football not 2 handed touch.
Great hit!!
Thats what happens when 260 hits 160

Great game Sunday.
Almost as many Raider jerseys as blue ones.
Mass exodus in 3 rd. quarter.
We did not see any fights.
I think we will go to Oakland next year for a game
instead of SD. Amtrack was packed like a cattle car going down. We did not get to Q. stadium until middle of 1 st. quarter.
weather was good.
Hope we play as well in Jax.
December 7th, 2010 at 6:14 am
NATION! Good morning.
Ain’t drinking coffee today, I’m having KOOL AID.
Dig this scenario. The Raiders win their next 3 games.
Out in San Diego this Sunday, the Chiefs complete the Chargers humiliation by whipping them and eliminating them from the playoffs. Then the next week they lose to a hungry Rams team.
This sets up a winner-take-the-division-loser-plays-golf matchup Week 17 in Arrowhead that the Raiders triumphantly win. The AFC playoff picture has shaken out like this:
#1 seed – Pittsburgh Steelers (13-3)
#2 seed – New England Patriots (12-4)
#3 seed – Oakland Raiders (10-6)
#4 seed – Jacksonville Jaguars (10-6)
#5 seed – Baltimore Ravens (12-4)
#6 seed – New York Jets (11-5)
This sets up the 2010 Raiders Playoff Vengenace Tour!
Jets come to Oakland and get spanked avenging the 38-0 humiliation last year.
Meanwhile, the Ravens beat the Jags. Round 2 of the playoffs see the Raiders go to New England and finally avenge the Snow Bowl. Ravens beat the Steelers.
AFC Championship game in Oakland: Ravens/Raiders. Ain’t no fatazz Tony Siragusa to fall on the QB this time. Raiders win and advance triumphantly to the Super Bowl.
DRINK DEEP NATION! IT’S GONNA HAPPEN!

Good Morning Raider Nation!
December 7th, 2010 at 6:27 am
Jacksonville game should be a slugfest. Same template in use though. Sustain drives by running the ball and managing the game, keep MJD off the field.
Harass Gerard, but don’t respect his escapability too much (like Big Ben). Absolutely positively have to contain Jones-Drew.
December 7th, 2010 at 6:29 am
And just pray that every AFC team with a winning record (especially KC) loses to an NFC team or an AFC team with a losing record.
As a team, Raiders can’t worry about any of this though. One game at a time and preparation is important but imposing their will be key.
As long as O Line and D Line play mean, we have a fighting chance in any game, if not the clear advantage.
December 7th, 2010 at 6:30 am
Raiders and Jags are almost mirror images of each other. Run first teams who play physical along the lines.
I’ll tell you this, Gallery, Satele and Carlisle had best be prepared. That Alualu kid and “Pot Roast” Knighton are almost impossible to move and can get after the QB pretty effectively.
Alualu: 6′3″, 305 lbs., 4 sacks
Knighton: 6′3″, 336 lbs., 4 sacks
Squat, powerful men, both of them. Not so much worried about their defensive ends; Veldheer and Walker should be able to handle them one-on-one.
December 7th, 2010 at 6:35 am
On defense: keep MJD under 100 yards and pressure Garrard
On offense: don’t give up on pounding the rock and limit turnovers
Do that = win.
Oh yeah, and the whole team had better find a way to pull their collective head out of their tailpipe when it comes to playing east coast games.
December 7th, 2010 at 6:35 am
[...] Chargers claimed that there was helmet-to-helmet contact, Jerry McDonald of the Bay Area News Group cites the post-game pool report, where referee John Parry explained that Sproles was not a defenseless receiver on the [...]
December 7th, 2010 at 6:36 am
The Jags have a good running game, but the good news for the Raiders offense is that their front four is dinged up and they don’t have much of a pass rush. McFadden should run wild. If the Raider defense can control MJD and prevent the big play, the Raiders can come out with a win.
On the other hand, this game has the potential to turn into a game much like the one against the Titans. The Raiders have to stay aggressive, and play inspired football the way they did on Sunday.
December 7th, 2010 at 6:38 am
On the other hand, this game has the potential to turn into a game much like the one against the Titans.
+++++++++++++++
It really does. I could honestly see us put a Seattle-style 33-3 whipping on the Jags. On the other hand, I could see them beating up on us like the Titans did, as you say. Very interesting when two similar teams play each other.
Right now, I’m predicting Raiders 27 – Jags 16
December 7th, 2010 at 6:41 am
For you guys saying the McClain hit on Sproles not being a ‘fair fight’….do you realize how hard it is to get a clean solid shot on a guy that small and that quick? Nobody EVER got a clean shot on LaDanian like that. McClain is nowhere NEAR as quick or as fast as Sproles..McClain got himself in good position, squared the guy up, and stuffed his head up his @$$….It ain’t easy to do, they weren’t in a phone booth or a closet. Don’t take anything away from that great hit because Sproles is small…he has his own weapons that failed him…all the way up to impact.
December 7th, 2010 at 6:41 am
McClain is gonna be crucial to this game. MJD is most dangerous in the open field; if they try to get him out wide on the edge, RoMac had better be there to meet him and keep him from turning the corner.
December 7th, 2010 at 6:42 am
this game will be decided by t.o.p., st, and defense.
we need to establish the run game right from the beginning!
do what we do best…run the ball!
December 7th, 2010 at 6:43 am
I say this…the remaining 4 teams are teams that we CAN run on. Like was stated here…keep pounding the rock, and not make the mistakes…we can win out! Let’s just hope that KC and SD fall flat on their faces…but, I am not counting on that! The raiders will have to control their own destiny…but let me ask you this: Who on here will be upset if we don’t make the playoffs?
December 7th, 2010 at 6:44 am
Hwnrdr,
It depends on how we miss the playoffs. If we finish 6-10 or 7-9, I’ll be upset. 8-8 or better and you won’t hear me complain very much.
December 7th, 2010 at 6:45 am
I would have loved to see Tom Brady eating a hot dog on the sidelines last-night.
December 7th, 2010 at 6:45 am
My thoughts exactly…if we lose the last 4…I’ll probably will NOT renew my tickets for next year! 8-8 or 9-7…sign me up for more kool aid!
December 7th, 2010 at 6:45 am
Who on here will be upset if we don’t make the playoffs?
——————
I know a lot of people just hope for improvement. They’re good with 7-9, 8-8, 9-7.
F___ that. I want a Super Bowl win.
I think the team is good enough to be 8-4 right now. A few letdowns after mental lapses have us scratching it out a 6-6 but maybe its better that way.
No room for complacency. Every game from here on out is a playoff game.

Reading the Denver sports media’s post-mortems on McDaniels. One article says Pat Bowlen more than anyone deserves blame for the state of the franchise. But then he drops this:
“To be sure, the young coach made such a mess at Dove Valley he might as well have scribbled 59-14 in crayon on the walls.”
Hilarious. That azz-whipping has come up in everything I’ve read so far. That was the beginning of the end for McDaniels.

The Raiders will have to make sure not to let up against the run when Jennings is in the backfield. This guy is playing real well when he gets the chance… Looking forward to another do or die in December.
TEAM OF THE DECADES!!!!!!!!!!!!!
December 7th, 2010 at 6:58 am
the best scenario for chiefs vs SD is for san diego to hand the chiefs a lost.
1. it gives the chiefs one more lost
2. gives us any tiebreaker where the division is concerned .were 4-0
3. it puts our destiny back in our hands.
raiders will win out….they have to.
raiders 31
jags 24
December 7th, 2010 at 6:59 am
Actually, Dirt Lot…that would be funny if we all end up at 10-6…Raiders still win based on sweeping the division! Whoa…did I say that right? Sweeping the division!!!
December 7th, 2010 at 7:00 am
Who on here will be upset if we don’t make the playoffs?
**********
We all should be , but at the same time proud of the beginning of a turnaround.
If we win the remaining 4 that’s 5 straight headed into the playoffs with the game in Oakland… momentum is a dangerous thing. The AFC is real strong though and is most likely going through NE to get to the bowl…
Let’s take it one game at a time.
December 7th, 2010 at 7:06 am
looking ahead: Wouldnt it be nice. meet up with the pats,in Ne snowing an them f__kin with game times again
snow bowl #2
this team tho
we job they arsess on the way to a SB.
ITs nice to dream……
December 7th, 2010 at 7:08 am
I agree CW…I agree! One week at a time! This year was already a good year considering where we are now and getting all those monkeys off of our backs, ie. winning back to back (well, 3 in a row), sweeping SD which also means winning in SD since losing the SB, getting that elusive 6th win, beating KC and SD at home…playoffs will be great but I’ll still be proud of my team!
December 7th, 2010 at 7:10 am
we dont male the playoffs this year….ill be upset BUT
8-8 or better makes spending the 1300.00 it cost me for my next yrs tix.
Ill be there no matter the season outcome.
win lose or tie
raiders for life!!!!!
BUT yea we need to win out make the playoffs get that homegame…..
December 7th, 2010 at 7:11 am
How much are playoff tickets anyways…just in case!
December 7th, 2010 at 7:16 am
6-6, We need KC to lose 1-3 of the next 3 or it doesnt matter what we do.
Morning Nation. Aside from the 4 days of non-stop snow its a great day to be a Raiders fan!
Wheres Rockstar? Can I FINALLY get some Pain McClain love!

****************
KC controls its own destiny though. They have to lose 1 of the next 3 for us to even have a shot. I think Jacksonville poses the biggest threat to us. If we beat them I think we can run the table. That last game Arrowhead is going to be a HUGE game.
Playoffs… eesh. I just want to beat Jacksonville, but if we DO make it to the dance… thats gonna be tough. We feasibly could host Pittsburg for a little revenge game. Most likely we would host Baltimore or the Jets.
December 7th, 2010 at 7:28 am
Chaz Schilens played eight plays, according to Cable, felt good Monday, and his role will be expanded each week.
***
thats why we won the ballgame?
thats why we’ll win out and be AFC West Champs?
thats why we’ll kick teeth in the playoffs and represent the AFC in the Super Bowl?
December 7th, 2010 at 7:30 am
Good Morning Rockstar! I guess Chaz came back at the right time, eh?
December 7th, 2010 at 7:32 am
On being able to sense which Raider team will take the field each Sunday
“I’m getting a pretty good idea with this team. We talked about going into Pittsburgh. That week of preparation was OK. It wasn’t what it needed to be. It was a little bit up and down, very inconsistent against Miami. There’s kind of that old saying, you’re going to play how you prepare, and last week we prepared well all the way through.
“I got asked here, in fact, by someone how the week was, and it was very good, but I’ve also been there where you practice real well and you don’t necessarily go out and play your best. But I think with this team as young as it is, I think that that’s important. I think it’s important that they really grasp on to the preparation it takes to be at your best, and I think they’re buying into that.”
***
FINALLY somebody asks Cable about this. It’s a coaching issue and he needs to make sure his players are not only prepared, but motivated. hungry and angry
If we play like we did against SD on Sunday every week we will not be stopped and Tom Cable will be Coach of the Year!
no more ups & downs. no more losing games that we SHOULD win. KC & SD aren’t going to lay down and let us have this thing. We have to EARN it. In fact, now that Dungver has a new interim HC they might be playing better in December too (see Dallas & Minnesota)
December 7th, 2010 at 7:34 am
I guess Chaz came back at the right time, eh?

My prediction was Week 16.
he may just be another DHB type decoy or ghost until then, but he’ll catch a Touchdown pass from JCamp in WK16 against Indy
Print That
December 7th, 2010 at 7:37 am
One thing I will say is this…Campbell looked more relaxed out there on Sunday! He’s no longer looking over his shoulder. Strong showing s from DMac, and Bush, and JC looking cool out there…we can win out!
December 7th, 2010 at 7:40 am
I do think newton will be available in the second round. There are a couple of qbs projected ahead of him, because of the contaversy & the spread offense. If this guy is on the board there is no way we should or could afford to pass on him. If you are smart you draft him then bring in a coach to build an offense for him, like Philly has tailored their scheme for vick.
Newton is better than vick was at that age, & vick was one of the greatest college qbs I have ever seen. Vick was faster, newton is a far better passer, almost as fast & much bigger. They both have that ” flick” type quick release. Cam is the new vick.
Cam is a leader & plays his best under adversity. Down 24 -0 in Alabama his team jumped on his back and he led them without flinching. Incredible how he can remain focused & perform like he has while not even being sure he would be able to play over the last several weeks. Auburn wasn’t even picked to be in the sec championship let alone the national championship. Take newton off that team they are average.
Any team that passes on him that doesn’t have Brady brees or vick is making s terrible mistake. Also the fact that jc is already under contract next season means if we take him, he has the luxury of sitting for a year.
I hope buffalo, & Carolina pass on him, these are the only teams off the top of my head that may take a qb in the first. Am I missing some one?
Cam newton for 2011, even if we have to trade up in the second to get him. It’s more than worth it.
December 7th, 2010 at 7:40 am
with Bruce Gradkowski and Kyle Boller in relief (Bruce is brittle) at QB the Raiders would have finished 4-12 this year and prompted yet another coaching overhaul by Al Davis.
Thanks Al for trading that 2012 4th rounder to get us a legit starting QB!
December 7th, 2010 at 7:40 am

Some quotes from a Jags forum…
~How good is Oakland? Good enough to embarrass us if we don’t bring our A game. Go Jags!
~All of the “stats” and what they do on the east coast means nothing… they just got done kicking the living stink out of the Chargers…
~if i’m the raider’s OC, i’m calling passes over considine all day long. can you imagine jacoby ford and louis murphy going up against him? the poor guy will have to play 30 yards back
~I’m scared because Ford and DHB are both vertical receivers and we give up the big play way too much.
***Not too confident in their secondary. Establishing the run early will set up the PA for the long ball.
December 7th, 2010 at 7:44 am
Broken record time: Cam Newton is a 1 year starter. Spread-option offense. He makes one read then takes off. He has plays designed specifically where he runs.
None of that is conducive to NFL success.
Taking Cam Newton in the first round would be as dumb as taking Tim Tebow. Newton has a better release and is faster than Tebow. That’s the sum total of his advantages. But as far as coming from college systems that will require them to be coached up, it’s the same damn thing.
Newton is a hell of a college QB, no denying. So were Gino Torretta, Ty Detmer, Danny Wuerffel, Jason White, Eric Crouch and JaMarcus Russell.
Troy Smith was a Heisman winner and an awesome college QB. Drafted in the 5th round. Someone explain to me the difference between him and Newton, except media hype?
December 7th, 2010 at 7:45 am
Chaz makes the offense completly different. He compliments ford and dhb perfectly, while he has very good speed, his big body give him the edge on ford. His size makes him an easier target to find & hit. His hands give him the edge on dhb. He & foes give us to real threats at receiver. Hope he can stay healthy, but I’m not holding my breath.
We need pass blockers to jc clean. He is very good when he isn’t hit too often.
December 7th, 2010 at 7:47 am
Carl Weathers,
Jags fans are realistic, much more so than Chargers, Chiefs, Donks fans who let their hate blind them.
Seems both fanbases realize each team can hurt the other badly. Figure the coaches do too. Should be a hell of a game.
December 7th, 2010 at 7:51 am
the Raiders don’t need Cam Newton. The need better depth on the lines
Mario Henderson & Desmond Bryant can go bag groceries for a living!
I don’t want Veldheer at Center if Satele can’t go. If we don’t trust Brandon Myers when Zach Miller is about 40 percent healthy then an upgrade is needed there too. How many times has Myers been targeted the last 5 or 6 games? maybe 10 total?
The biggest upgrade this offseason should be WR Coach. Maybe just fire Sanjay Lal and let Ted Tollner have that job. What good is a Passing Game Coordinator that doesn’t call plays anyway?

I think he does. And if Campbell guides us into the playoffs, he’s earned the right to come back, obviously.
Wouldn’t surprise me to see Al go grab Leinart, though as a backup only with no chance to win the starting gig minus injury. He can’t help himself when it comes to picking up ex-first rounders, even if they’re clearly only depth (Jarvis Moss, William Joseph, etc etc etc)

the Jags are already beat if Maurice Jones-Drew gets shut down. So far he’s managed less than 100 yards against the Donks and less than 50 yards against SD & KC. ZERO TD’s in those 3 games!
He’s not going to go off against us, which means we will handle them with ease, barring a play calling meltdown from Hue Jackson or preparation/motivation issues for the entire team
December 7th, 2010 at 8:00 am
I think I was the one that started throwing Cam Newton’s name around a few weeks ago. At the time, Newton probably would have lasted into the top or middle of the 2nd round. His stock has certainly risen since then. Newton is absolutely a viable NFL Q, but he is also a project. A team would have to “Aaron Rogers” him and let him sit for a few years, just play him in the preseason and then I think he has the ability to be an excellent Q.
December 7th, 2010 at 8:00 am
Jacksonville. We MUST contain Mojo, and Garrard on the boot. Shonasty and Houston HAVE to set the edge period. They cant beat us through the air. Same offensive game plan as the Chargers game.
Its so maddening. When this team is on they can beat anyone. So frustrating to think that we should Definitely be 7-5 but realistically 9-3 should be our record with Ten, Pit and Miami the only teams that really outplayed us.
December 7th, 2010 at 8:01 am
MJD & Jennings = 85 rushing yards.
Garrard might chip in another 20 or 30 on the ground and a rushing TD himself, but he’ll have his typical 150 yards passing and they’ll rely on that Defense to keep it a low scoring affair … which it won’t be this Sunday!

Troy Smith was a Heisman winner and an awesome college QB. Drafted in the 5th round. Someone explain to me the difference between him and Newton, except media hype?
………..…
first off, newton is a far better passer than every qb on that list. Because he is such a freakish runner people under sell his passing ability. As a passer he is on par with mattew stafford & far ahead of Russel. This comes from. Former NFL vet & CBS football analyst Gary Danielson, I tend to agree. Most of the guys you listed are runners first , no comparison. Newton is a pass first qb that plays in an offense where the qb runs. For the record vs the last 3 sec games the play calling featured a pass heavy attack & very few rushes from cam. He beat Georgia, Alabama in Tuscaloosa, and souuth Carolina with his passing.
There are teams that run a spread in the NFL, some of them have mobile qbs and even have designed runs for the qb. For example when we play jax, you will see garrard run the speed option, and qb draw. Vick has a lot of boot leg run pass option and qb draw. These are only two examples, there are more. The fact that cam also has these tools only adds to his value & shouldn’t be a knock against him. Again the best part of his game is his passing game. In that regard he is more like mcnabb and garrard, as opposed to young and vick.
Lastly you say he needs to be coached up, this makes him perfect for us. He doesn’t need to play as a rookie, we have jc under contract. We can take Cam and let him learn behind a solid pro. If he is on the board we must take him, game changers at qb don’t come that often. He & luck are the only real game changers at qb in this draft.
December 7th, 2010 at 8:07 am

DAM that East Coast Trip, Of all the times we go out there, we gotta go out there now…
This team is absolutely putrid when kick-off is at 10AM according to their Biological Clocks. Its like they don’t even wake up until the game is over….
Until they show me that they can play out east, Im going to reserve judgement. If I was Cable, I would get out to Florida on Wednesday, and run practices from one of the 2 thousand college stadiums that are out there, get these guys conditioned. They won’t do it, but that would be the smart move.
This game is going to be an absolute slug fest. You saw what they did to CJ, and Kirk is going to want some redemption. I don’t see how we win this game, but I am holding out hope. This Jags team is much different than the ones we have seen in the past..
Ill be at the Arizona-Denver game this Sunday, anxiously watching the scoreboard tho, also hoping for a Denver Loss with whatever sucker they put up for interim coach.

I think we should move Huff to DB and let him start opposite Routt, that would give us 2 playmakers and #21 could move to nickelback where he might be able to snag himself an INT before the season ends. This would let S Brown see more action!
December 7th, 2010 at 8:14 am
In McDaniels short time as HC of the donks he:
~Traded away a top 5 WR,
~Traded away a top ten pick QB for another he thought could run his offense
~He then went out and traded a RB tearing up the league with draft picks for Brady Quinn.
~Then he sold the farm for Tim Tebow another QB.
~He let go a defensive coordinator that has proven himself as such everywhere he has coached.

Even tho what you think is pure comedy, spare us. You might hurt yourself.
December 7th, 2010 at 8:18 am
Newton on a par with Matt Stafford? hahahahahhahaha. Right. In terms of sheer arm strength? Absolutely. In his ability to read defenses and actually run a pro offense? Not a chance.
There’s a vast difference between NFL offenses that operate from the shotgun a lot (New England, Indy) than college offenses that do the same thing. NFL shotgun offenses need a Brady or a Manning to make them truly work. Do you ever think Newton will be 1/10th as good as either of them?
And how are most of the guys I listed runners first? Do you have *any* idea what you’re talking about?
Even if they ALL were runners first, guess what? SO IS NEWTON. One, maybe two reads and he’s off and scrambling.
Finally, ANY QB that needs to be coached up would be a disaster because the Raiders have not drafted and developed a starting QB since Ken Stabler 40 f-ing years ago.

the Raiders don’t need Cam Newton. The need better depth on the lines
………….
I will have to respectfully disagree with you in part. I agree the lines are our most pressing need. However you can upgrade in the draft, even mid to late rounds. You can trade or sign free agents. Outside of left tackle good oline players are not that hard to find.
But a talent like newton, he is a once in a generation special qb. If he is on the board take him, because you can’t find any one like him via free agency or trade. You won’t have any one like him over the next few drafts classes either.

Now you’re on the kid from Baylor, mistic? Jesus. I’m done with you. Newton we can argue about. If he goes to the right team and sits for a year or two, he can be good. I just don’t see him as a first round pick. The Baylor kid will never do squat in the NFL.
If I ever respond to one of mistic’s pointless and nonsensical diatribes again, someone please slap me.
December 7th, 2010 at 8:21 am
This game is going to be an absolute slug fest. You saw what they did to CJ, and Kirk is going to want some redemption. I don’t see how we win this game, but I am holding out hope. This Jags team is much different than the ones we have seen in the past..
***
Mikie, the Jags got spanked by KC & SD earlier this year
it’s Oakland’s turn. That offense only produced 3 points against Philly & TN in Weeks 3 and 6!
the Giants beat them without WR’s Steve Smith & Hakeem Nicks. they sacked Garrard 4 times and forced him to make 2 turnovers
We got this bro. Don’t be scared

MistaTheGuruBrown Says:
December 7th, 2010 at 8:13 am
I think we should move Huff to DB and let him start opposite Routt, that would give us 2 playmakers and #21 could move to nickelback where he might be able to snag himself an INT before the season ends. This would let S Brown see more action!
************
Nnamdi doesnt do well in the nickle. Why move that many guys around? Move huff to nickle on occasion, but not Nnamdi.
December 7th, 2010 at 8:25 am
RRS, MJD was hurt earlier in the year. But the Giants did beat them with their ability to shut down the run in the second half and they got to Garrard. We are capable of the same.
If we stop the run, we should win… but they’re saying the same thing. Should be a good game.
December 7th, 2010 at 8:26 am
McClain had his best game as a pro against SD on Sunday. I want to see him build off of it by hammering MJD the same way he did Sproles!
Mighty Mouse is an Oakland native, but I’d still like to see the trainers rush out to him with the smelling salts and kleenex before Halftime

………,…………
Tebow and crouch are runner, not passers. White and wuerfel are and where noodle arms, wuerful was also a turnover machine. Torreta was all hype.
Smith has the skill , but lacks the touch pass, & isn’t nearly as good as newton. None of these guys compare an any way to cam.
Spread passing attack would fit newton to a tee. It is just a matter of learning to be an NFL qb, anyone that becomes an NFL player must go through this process, newton will have no trouble. I have never seen heard or read that he has trouble learning.
I cam see him running an offense like vick does in Philly, or like mcnabb in Washington.
Spread play action with boots.
You may not like the comparison to stafford but that is exactly who daneilson compared him to, & wansnt simply arm strength. He was talking about his ability to read a defense and deliver a variety of accurate passes.
I see you just can’t wrap your mind around the idea of newton the passer. It is real, don’t be fooled by the offense he runs in college. He makes that offense, not the other way around. He will have no problem learning the NFL game.

Griffin is an excellent college qb, he is only a soph I made no claims about him as an NFL prospect.

the Raiders have a Top 10 Pass Defense, giving up 206 passing yards per game.
We have however given up 22 TD’s through the air, which is 5th WORST in the league (tied with Jacksonville)
all things considered, pretty good imo since Asomugha, CJ37, Branch & McFadden have all dealt with injuries at some point during the season and several runners have trashed us, which opened things up in the passing game (Titans, Texans, 49ers)
December 7th, 2010 at 8:49 am
Thank You RRStar, I actually feel much better now. Just the last few games I have seen the Jags win, they have just looked like the tougher team. Alot like us really, I think we would definitely win if they had to fly out to Oaktown, but since the situation is reversed and given our history out east *adjusts collar*…….
Ha Carl! I didn’t lose a bet, just going out to AZ to see Dad, he lives about 4 miles from AZ’s stadium and got us some great seats, ain’t been to an NFL game with him since the last game the Cardinals played in St.L when they got worked by the Giants..

Not sure you can give ROMAC all the credit though. Compare his front seven supporting cast to the one we had here last year, night & day difference. Plus Ricky Brown filled in for McClain against KC and played more than he did against the League’s #1 Rushing team and there was no dropoff
The rookie is improving though and I like it!

As for our pass D. I know we have a good unit, buy I think adding a CB & OLB can make us special. Top 5 defense. Routt and CJ give up a lot of plays, and they don’t get picks, and that’s why I say they are below avg.

Look at Reece. He can be used like Finley from GB, and we can use him and Z Miller the way the pats use their 2 yount TEs. We also need to use Bush more, and get DMC more involved in the passing game. Hue is doing better than Cable last year, but he is not doing anything special.
We may not have the best WRs, but we have weapons on offense: DMC, Miller, Bush, Ford, and Reece.
December 7th, 2010 at 9:08 am

Great run execution.
December 7th, 2010 at 9:16 am
If Bush can’t be retained, the Raiders should go after a running back in the draft. The running game is vital to this team, and having two very dangerous weapons in the backfield has kept this team viable.
December 7th, 2010 at 9:17 am

True.
The top 3 offseason MUSTS
1. Sign Seymore
2. Sigh Nnamdi
3. Sign Bush if not, draft a back up for Reece.
4. Draft, FA, and trade for QB, C, (RG or RT), OLB, CB, a true edge rusher would always be nice, but we are pretty good @ getting to the QB.

I’m thinking let’s not worry about gettin back into round 1, we or Al has had better luck finding hidden gems. Ford, MM34, Bush, And so on. Our O-line will benefit from an offseason of getting more familiar with eachother. We desperately need a C though, a good C calling out assignments getting all others in check.
December 7th, 2010 at 9:26 am
Seymour and Miller are musts to re-sign. Huff and Gallery should also be considered if the money is there.
As far as CBs, I like Davon House from New Mexico State or Jonathan Joseph as a free agent from the Bengals.
At RB, I like Derrick Locke from Kentucky (although with a good combine performance he could move up into the 2nd or 3rd round, at which point I think the Raiders have other needs).
December 7th, 2010 at 9:26 am
I agree Nnamdi. We need another CB. Maybe we can get one from FA like J Joseph. I’m sure Al will find a way to sign Bush, Sey, and Miller.
December 7th, 2010 at 9:26 am
I know the O-line has gotten criticism this year ( sometimes warranted and others not). But I watched the game again last night and they flat out played a perfect game ( yeah, some offsides big deal). They dominated and pushed around that D-line like little girls. I even like when Walker knocked that guy over standing above Campbell. If they continue to play pissed off, the rest of the season could be an interesting one.
December 7th, 2010 at 9:27 am
RG targets: Carl Nicks (NO), Harvey Dahl (ATL)
RT targets: Ryan Harris (DEN), Jared Gaither (BAL)
In the draft I like Darrius Morris from Temple. Versatile enough to play OT (probably RT) and OG.
December 7th, 2010 at 9:29 am
Gallery will resign after he gives us a discount. I’m not sure about Huff. We have Branch, MM, and S Brown.
Instead of paying Routt $3.5+ and paying CJ 3+, we can sign a good CB in FA and pay him the combined salaries of those 2 CBs.
December 7th, 2010 at 9:29 am
Racoon,
It’s not consistent game to game.
We have huge numbers against some teams, we need to bring constant pressure every week. When our D is not getting pressure we are getting hit for big plays. I’m proud of our defense I’m just stating where I think it would help. Like disguising blitzes like having Huff coming in or MM34. That helps a lot, keeps that QB’s head on a swivel and not down feild.

——————-
The only reason I think Huff should get some consideration is because look how long it took him to adapt to playing FS the way the Raiders need their FS to play in this defensive system. Will it take another guy as long? Who knows.
Stevie Brown seems to be coming along quickly… he’s actually farther along than Huff was at this point in his career. If the Raiders don’t think he’s completely ready, a somewhat inexpensive option in free agency might be Jarrad Page from NE. The Pats likely won’t re-sign him because they’re deep at safety with Sanders, Merriweather and Chung.
I agree that Routt and CJ aren’t really worth what they’re getting paid. I have a feeling one of those guys won’t be around next season. Personally, I’d love to see Jonathan Joseph in Silver and Black next season. It’ll give Ware and McFadden more time to come along, and Joseph is a strong player in man coverage.
December 7th, 2010 at 9:36 am
I still can’t figure this team out. I thought they would fold after the Phins game so had them written off….now they got my hope up again….but will there be another let down game like the Phins game?
Right now I just hope we sweep the division opponents….that would be unreal, even if our division is weak. I could live with 7-9. Not great considering our weak schedule, but hopefully our next coach can build on it.

Denver’s Ryan Harris is a big-time RT with experience in the ZBS. He’s also big enough for a power blocking scheme. Really solid all-around player.
Jared Gaither might be cheaper (and also probably has more upside if he’s healthy enough to reach his potential), but Harris would be a very good option indeed.
December 7th, 2010 at 9:39 am
the Raiders have not allowed a 100 yard rusher since Week 6 (Frank Gore)
*********
We are averaging less than 3.5ypc since week 6 as well. Even the game against miami that we gave up 186 yards was only 3.4 ypc, 51 carries and they dominated us. No Defense can stand up to that pounding. Case and point, SD is the 3rd ranked run D in football and we had 251 yards on 51 carries, and that was without the benefit of a 45 yard scamper at the end.

Dakota how would we go 7-9 and sweep the division? If we beat KC and Denver we can do no worse than 8-8. I think we are going to beat Indy too. 9-7 and Cable keeps his job.

That’s what I like about him. He’s versatile enough to play both sides (if Veldheer gets hurt that’ll come in handy). Plus, at his best, he’s a franchise-caliber tackle. Assuming he’s healthy, the Raiders should give him a one-year deal to prove what he can do.

BCZ24,
That is right 8-8. As much as I hate to say it, at 9-7 Cable should keep his job. We’ll regret it, but you couldn’t fire him after that. He’ll never take us anywhere of importance, but you just couldn’t fire him at 9-7.
Unless of course at 9-7 suddenly the job looks much better to Gruden or Cowher and they give Al a call! lol
7-9 fire him
8-8….nice, but given the easy schedule and inconsistant play, fire him.
9-7….doomed to another year of Cable…puuuuuke
December 7th, 2010 at 9:49 am
Guys, listen up.
If Tom Cable is back next year, so is this scrub filled O-Line …
Al Davis might allow the Cable to use our 3rd rounder on 1 O-Lineman, but after that it’s back to skill position guys.
Sanjay Lal will be retained. CJ37, Chaz, Nmiller & my boys Johnnie Lee & Huff will not
I think we’re done with Ricky Brown after this season too, the staff seems pretty high on Goethel
December 7th, 2010 at 9:49 am
If the Raiders are 9-7, or even 8-8, Cable should keep his job. If that happens then obviously SOMETHING is working, and consistency is key for a young team.
Plus then Cable can convince Harvey Dahl (who he used to coach in ATL) to come aboard. Maybe Tyson Clabo too, haha…

December 7th, 2010 at 9:54 am
New coaches aren’t going to change much about the way the Raiders play football. Since the end of the Gruden era, the HC here has been at most a “quality control” guy, and at worst a glorified motivational speaker.
If the Raiders start succeeding with these coaches, then make a couple of adjustments where necessary but keep the core of the group.
But at anything less than 8-8, I don’t think Cable should get a contract extension. At that point Al would basically be rewarding Cable for a losing season, and I don’t believe that’s the right message to send to this team.
December 7th, 2010 at 9:54 am
We’ll look to find a speedy young WR in the draft to go with DHB, Murphy & Ford.
Branch, Mitchell, Brown & Eugene will compete for the 2 safety spots.
Routt will get a monster contract. Nnamdi will get paid Top 5 QB money. Seymour will get Top 5 Defensive player money.
McFadden & Ware will battle for the nickelback job in OTA’s & camp. Could have another late round speedster in the mix
December 7th, 2010 at 9:56 am
I agree with Dakota. Cable is not a very good coach. Although, 8-8 will probably be good enough to keep him. If by some miracle, Al can get a big time coach, which will probably never happen, then fire him no matter the record.

If Cable goes 8-8 it just shows that this team is talented and Hue Jackson really changed things. It also shows that we left 3 (49ers, Cards, Phins) wins on the table and a division title. Maybe a real NFL HC makes the difference between losing and winning those games?

If Haynesworth won’t put forth any effort with the Redskins, I have a hard time believing he’ll want to come here. Plus a team would have to be stupid enough to trade for that ludicrous contract. Front-loaded or not, it’s still too much to pay for a player with inconsistent effort.
At the beginning of this season I would have been in favor of bringing Albert in, but seeing how he has conducted himself for Washington really doesn’t give me a whole lot of confidence in him.

Miami and 49er games were good examples of bad coaching and bad Oc. 49er game way too conservative (Hue) and Campbell should have been benched for Boller to see if he could spark something (Cable). Miami went away from the run and heavy on the deep pass with a qb that visibly couldn’t do it (Hue). Bruce should have been benched for Jason (Cable). Were a young team that I beleive has found their identity and will continue to play better together, let’s keep coaching continuity if we can.
December 7th, 2010 at 10:10 am
YA,
Fat Albert wants to be a 4-3 DT, not a 3-4 DE. Thats what he signed the contract for and thats what he had been doing his entire pro & college career. Shanny played hardball with him and it backfired
Fat Albert was a Pro Bowler for the Titans. Maybe the most dominant interior D-Lineman in the league. If he’s released, 31 other teams will be interested if the price is right
December 7th, 2010 at 10:10 am
Albert Haynesworth is a beast that coach in Washington has lost touch with todays players Pat Bowlden seen it and Now Danial Snyder is seeing it.
you mean to tell me that all those years with the Titans was a fluke? or he had a coach who knew how to coach him up? I hear the guy just wants to play the way he knows how. Ah a message to coaches who think they might be a players “Salvation” Your paid to Increase their Stong points and to Hide thier Weakness!

Imagine a DT rotation of Seymour, Kelly, Haynesworth & Henderson
that would trump the Williams Wall in Minnesota plus whatever depth DT’s they’ve had over the years!
December 7th, 2010 at 10:16 am
Mistic,
Why would you think Newton will last to the 2nd round? I’m calling it now. Top 5 pick. Guaranteed. Rocket arm and big to go along with it. Dont have the stupid Tebow delivery either.
He is unproven as a passer but we all know that NFL GM’s dont give a darn that. They will fall in love with size and hype. He is going to blow them away in private workouts on his arm strength and we have another top 5 pick. Aint no way the Raiders get a shot at him not that I want the Raiders to get him either.
December 7th, 2010 at 10:16 am
Things are progressing. Did any of us think we would see this type of season playing out this year? The team responds to Cable, keep him. We all know how this team is run anyways. We wont see a top tier coach here, not for a long time. The culture has changed, the teams attitude has changed and things look to be in an upswing for the future.
Not all of the fault this year lays on his shoulders for the dreadful games they have played. That solely goes to the OC and his game plan. When Hue is on, he is on. He plans within the teams strengths and it shows.
Keep the coaches and steady as she goes.

If I’m coach, Fat Albert plays early downs w/ Seymour, then gives away to Kelly on 3rd downs.

Just imagine Fat Albert taking on a double team, freeing up Seymour.

If the Raiders picked up Haynesworth, I would think they would have to trade Kelly. That’s a lot of money to paying three defensive tackles. Of course, Seymour may leave too.

I agree think about it it’s Hue’s first time as OC so he’s still learning and now that he’s realized what this team he showed it vs. Diego. Same with Jason, do you really want to learn another offensive system? Yes he should be our qb next year as he’s at least as good as the other available qbs and there really isn’t a sure thing in the draft that we could get or that would be ready next year anyway. Or if Hue becomes HC it’s too many hats like what Cable dealt with last year and Cable is a good Oline coach although I know many would disagree. Continuity, we’re moving in the right direction

I think the playcalling gets too much flak in the Pittsburgh and Miami losses. When you’re not running the ball effectively and can’t protect the quarterback, it’s not like you can just open up the playbook. Nothing was working. Poor execution is to blame.

Bryant & Scott aren’t needed on the D-Line. Scott is a backup WLB or situational pass rusher. Bryant & Moss are outta here. Gone are the days of “Just plug in Joseph or Wakefield” when the starters are gassed

—————–
Unprepared is a coaching issue, unmotivated is on the players.
The playcalling, however, is something different. It’s not about the plays that were called. It about a team that was unprepared mentally to run them. If a team can’t do the basic things, it’s not like you’re all of a sudden going to start pulling off quick slants with pinpoint accuracy, or going into the bag of tricks for reverse plays and flea flickers.

Not true. Haynesworth WILL be cut following the season. He will be picked up as a free agent with the Redskins responsible for that contract, and probably be paid something like a Mill per year plus incentives. It will NOT be here.

Colts are floundering Rockstar, and Peyton looks like crap.
They have a new TE, some new WR’s, and just brought in Dominic Rhodes apparently.
Meanwhile they only replaced one O-lineman from last years Super Bowl team, Ryan Lilja.
Was Lilja the key to the Colts offense over the years? Who knew!!!!

Cam Newton has all the same issues as Tim Tebow. Never takes a snap under center, relies on athleticism, awful footwork.
Tebow’s last collegiate game, he completed 80% of his passes for a 475 yards and 4 TD’s, breaking almost every sugar bowl record.
8 months later in preseason, the guy can’t even make an average NFL throw on a 10 yard sideline-out pattern.
I would draft Cam Newton…..in the 4th round or later.

#1 key is not biting some damn hard on the play-action bootlegs that we always seem to fall victim for.
Garrard runs these to a T, and quite often. Especially around the goalline where he can run them in or throw it to Mercedes Lewis.

Haynesworth is a chump and on the downswing of his career. That’s the typical outward thinking that people expect from the Raiders. “Hey let’s go and get him, bla bla bla”. Not anymore. Not here. We don’t need that cancer on a progressing team.
^^^^^^^
Agreed. If he comes on the cheap…sure sign him….but don’t sign him for any medium to big money that’s for sure.

I say the Cable and Hue aim to run right at Kirk Morrison all day long and wash him out of plays!
They coaching staff should know his weaknesses!
They need to defend the inside runs to MJD and watch out for his cut backs and wrap that little guy up because he has low center of gravity.

Sanjay Lal is in his fourth season with The Oakland Raiders, the second in his present capacity coaching wide receivers for the Silver and Black. Lal joined the Raiders in 2007 working with the wide receivers and operating as the offensive quality control assistant. In 2009, Lal tutored Darrius Heyward-Bey and Louis Murphy, the first rookie tandem to start at WR in the NFL since 2000. Before joining the Raiders, Lal spent three seasons as an offensive assistant-quarterbacks coach at Cal, following one season on the football staff at St. Mary’s College as quarterbacks and strength, speed and conditioning coach. The Bears played in bowl games in each of Lal’s seasons at Cal and captured a share of the school’s first Pac-10 title (tied with USC) in 2006. He was the wide receivers coach at Los Medanos College (2003) and was passing game coordinator and wide receivers coach at Miramonte High (1996-02) when the school won five North Coast Section Championships and one state title, including a 13-0 record in 2001. Lal played wide receiver at the University of Washington and was a Husky Hall of Fame selection. He was on the Huskies 1992 National Championship team and a member of two Rose Bowl teams. Before transferring to Washington, he was a member of the 1989 UCLA Cotton Bowl Championship team. Lal signed as a free agent with the St. Louis Rams in 1998 and was with the Scottish Claymores of NFL Europe in 1999.
He Still Sucks as a coach I dont Care What the Raiders Print about Him!

MJD is slower than crap, but rarely ever does the first man bring him down.
He won’t break many 30+ yarders on you, but he can rattle off 6 straight 7 yard carries, and the Jags will give him 5-6-7 carries in a row without thinking twice if it is working.

December 7th, 2010 at 12:13 pm
Since week 6 we have allowed 162 carries for 595 yards which works out to 3.67 ypc which would tie us for 5th in the NFL in run defense. How is THAT for drastic improvement.
December 7th, 2010 at 12:13 pm
It seems obvious that this team needs to run first, last and often. Cable & co are just now figuring that out unless the tall tales about Al are true and he forced Hue to pass, while Tom said yes sir.
We cant get away from it if a team goes up on us. Keep pounding, keep the D off the field and good things will happen. We might not overcome a 17 point lead but we can keep chipping away
No more blowouts
If Mac cant run, run Bush and run Reece.
I still cant hardly believe Hue ran the ball as much as he did, last week. It seems surreal

If the raiders draft newton that would be awfull. Just a plain stupid idea. He by know means is a NFL qb. He’s known for running nit a good passing qb. Sure he has some good numbers in college. But that’s college not the NFL. Come on people I thought we want what’s good for this team. He would just be another Tim tebow type in the NFL.

It’s not speculation, Dakota. Several former players, coaches, and team employees have all described Al’s meddling on both sides of the ball. They didn’t all have a meeting in some underground dungeon in Al Hatesville and come up with a similar description. They’re telling the truth. Period.

I guess Campbell we would rather have 300 yds passing an a loss than 117 yards and a win.

You are correct, I am not a centrist….I should have said that I occasionally think some ideas from the center are okay.

On the QB thing mcnabb would be a good fit,palmer is gun shy he needs the plunkett plan which is ride the pine for a year & then maybe.no tradin Nnamdi for a first rounder next year either ok BIG AL. WHO WOULD LIKE HAYNSWORTH NEXT YEAR? would have to dump kelly to do but it is doable seymore & haynsworth don’t seem fair does it? RaiderFreak out.

sorry sd about the reason we won or lost i thought it said defense ma bad, in the draft i think we need safty first reason being veldeer is taking care of buisness & B campbell is getting it he should push next year we need depth in the secondary safty is a must huff is getting close to end contract & he is hit or miss not good enough to invest to much $$$$ you know,our biggest issue is get seymore signed to a multi-year contract he is the sole reason the D-line is playing so good we need him to mentor kelly & houston because houston will probably become tackle when seymore retires,but it does’nt matter what we think cable will have another monster draft again next year even without a first rounder he’ll make it work. any way nation forever RaiderFreak out.
