Raiders claim off waivers linebacker, waive S Etheridge
By Steve Corkran
Wednesday, August 31st, 2011 at 3:21 pm in Oakland Raiders.
The Raiders claimed Jeremy Leman off waivers from the San Diego Chargers. He will wear the No. 53 most recently donned by former Raiders outside linebacker Thomas Howard from 2006-10.
Leman, 26, has spent time on the practice squads of the Philadelphia Eagles, Minnesota Vikings and Chargers since he left Illinois in 2008. He has not appeared in an NFL regular-season game.
Leman also has some familiarity with Raiders defensive coordinator Chuck Bresnahan from their time together with the Florida Tuskers of the United Football League in 2010. He follows former Tuskers linebacker Darryl Blackstock to the Raiders.
*In other news, the Raiders placed offensive lineman Lou Eliades on the injured reserve and waived/injured undrafted rookie Zac Etheridge. If Etheridge clears waivers, he likely would be placed on the injured-reserve.

This guy has no shot at making it past next Saturdays cut down. I dont get it… Chuckie B getting a paycheck from the rest of the West to ensure we blow donkey balls?

Playoff bound now…
August 31st, 2011 at 3:24 pm
Someone inform Hue that most teams don’t get to run out their intended 11 starters on D week after week after week.
Injuries happen.
Also, Al Davis runs the D. Frustration about the D = frustration about Davis’ system, personnel moves, and coaching hires. Nice.

All 11 starters should be healthy for the Denver Broncos game Sept. 12. At that time, Jackson expects to get an accurate gauge of where his defense stands.
For now, he said, he is confident that he has the proper talent on the defensive side of the ball for the Raiders to have a great defense.

He didn’t mention coaching or scheme did he? His hands are tied.

August 31st, 2011 at 3:39 pm
Kelly lying about how the 1’s haven’t worked together in pre-season, and that’s why they haven’t stopped the run.
Lol. Worked together while the 49ers ran it right down their throats.
August 31st, 2011 at 3:39 pm
A safer bet is that quality or keeper LB’s would be more plentiful on next round of cuts, not this round. Just a body.
August 31st, 2011 at 3:41 pm
The Raider front-office PR people will be asking the most questions, probably.

Exactly Alex. Most games someone is going to be missing or only playing partial games. Depth matters BIG TIME….People are deluding themselves when they say…oh but the backup was in the game”
Ask Green Bay how depth mattered last year when they had to rely on the 43rd player on the roster.
No depth = bad, bad, bad exposure

Can’t go on that JFB. It’s only a tough question if the player gives a damn…I’m sure Kelly would’ve answered anything thrown at him without giving it a second thought. It’s the paper that cares though and doesn’t want to seem like they’re prying too deep into Hue & Al’s world.

This is what I have got on Mr. Leman from NFL.com
he had played for Minnesota in 2009 (no stats acquired):
rest copy/pasted from nfl.com
Pick Analysis: The versatile linebacker found a home in the middle of the Illini defense two years ago, posting 248 tackles in his final two seasons in Champaign.
His blue-collar work ethic and knack for being in the right position to make the play saw the team compile a 9-4 record and earn a berth in the prestigious Rose Bowl in his final campaign.
Leman began his career as a strong-side linebacker, taking over weak-side linebacker chores as a sophomore. With the arrival of Ron Zook as head coach, the coaches felt that Leman’s field instincts and high intelligence were perfectly suited for calling defensive signals from the middle.
Being a “student of the game” is one of Leman’s best traits, but he has also excelled in the classroom. He graduated in August 2006 with a degree in speech communications in only three years at the university. He later received his master’s degree in Human Resource Education in December 2007.
Leman is considered a high-character athlete. He is active in the Vineyard Christian Fellowship and regularly visited hospitals and schools as part of the Illini community program.
His ultimate career goal is to become a sports anchor or television personality following graduation. The way he played the last two seasons, Leman caught the attention of NFL scouts, but during the Rose Bowl, he suffered an ankle injury that required surgery in late January, and he might have to put his aspirations to play in the National Football League on hold.
At Champaign Central High School, Leman was an All-State selection by the Champaign News-Gazette and the Illinois High School Football Coaches Association. He was named the Area Player of the Year by the Champaign News-Gazette and ranked among the Top- 100 inside linebackers in the country, according to Rivals.com. He was also tabbed an All-Conference and All-Area pick as a junior.
Leman went on to earn a total of eight letters in football, track and basketball. He recorded 356 tackles during his career, including making 191 hits during his senior season. That year, he also added 26 stops behind the line of scrimmage, nine sacks, three blocked punts, five forced fumbles and an interception.
Leman enrolled at the University of Illinois in 2003, becoming the first Central High player to join their football team since Greg Boysaw in 1985. He spent that season performing on the scout team as an inside linebacker. In 2004, he appeared in 11 games, starting five contests, including the final four, at strong-side outside linebacker. He posted 56 tackles (28 solos) with 1.5 sacks and three stops for losses. He also caused a fumble and broke up one pass, earning Freshman All-Big Ten Conference honors from The Sporting News.
In 2005, Leman was named the team’s Outstanding Linebacker, adding CoSIDA Academic All-District and Academic All-Big Ten Conference honors. He started all 11 games at weak-side linebacker and made 140 appearances on special teams. He ranked second on the team with 67 tackles (37 solo) and 5.5 stops behind the line of scrimmage.
As a junior, Leman was named team captain. He was a first-team All-Big Ten Conference and All-American honorable mention while again garnering national academic honors. In his new position at middle linebacker, he ranked third in the nation and led the league with 152 tackles (75 solo), the sixth-highest season total in school history. His 19 stops for losses also rank sixth on the Illini’s single-season record list and placed him seventh in the nation. He added four sacks with five quarterback pressures and also caused two fumbles while breaking up four passes.
The postseason honors were numerous for Leman again in 2007. He was named All-American and All-Big Ten Conference first-team and was a finalist for both the Ronnie Lott Award and Danny Weurffel Award. He again led the Illini with 132 tackles (71 solo) that included 2.5 sacks and 10.5 stops for losses. He also caused a fumble, intercepted one pass and batted away three others.
In 47 games at Illinois, Leman started 41 contests. His 407 tackles (211 solo) rank sixth in school history while his 38 stops for losses of 117 yards rank tied for fifth. He added eight sacks for minus-50 yards, nine quarterback pressures and four forced fumbles. He also intercepted one pass and deflected nine others.

I found it more interesting than Corkran’s live chat.
Not sure what people were expecting to feel that it was a waste of time. There is millions of people on twitter that salivate of getting 100 characters from a player on a bunch of nothing. TK just dropped over 1,000 characters on us, with a majority of it about the Raiders.
August 31st, 2011 at 4:48 pm
I do hope that no Raider player ever reads the majority of this blog because they would believe that the fans hate them and wish for them to fail.
Other than the current flavor of the moment (this one being DHagan), every other player, coaches and the entire organization are negatively critiqued or slimed with whatever noxious crap that comes to mind of the persons in here.
JustFB,
you question whether the stuff in here is offered by 13 year olds. It is adolescent no matter the age.

Guess it just depends what you’re looking for…..The Desmond Bryant comment about being the strongest pound for pound and stuff like that holds a little weight, but it would’ve been nice to get one question about one of the biggest question marks on the team (who will and should fill our interior o-line spots) from the man who practices against them every day.
We’ll all be glad when it’s Sunday-week 1 and any question that any of us really has is truly answered
August 31st, 2011 at 4:56 pm
Even if it was “which newbie on the o-line has impressed you the most”? Something of that nature had to be asked to give that chat any sort of football credibility considering the interviewee

I like to play to win and I haven’t won yet,” Jackson said. “It’s pissing me off. That might be why I’m pissed.”
———————————————-
You can throw the ‘its just pre season’ crap out the window, tho if the Raiders had played better and not given up 500+ yards last 2 games Hue probably feels better. If feel sorry for the fact that his hands are tied to the defensive scheme and Hue knows its antique. The thought of having to score 35 plus points a game prolly got him a little stressed too. Hue, just pimp hand your way into making your own decisions. You dictate what you want on the defensive side of the ball. You are the man, and if Al dont like it, whats he gonna do. Nothing, he cant. At least for the first eight games, go for it. If you can sweat some Al Davis tenure, you can get a job somewhere else. I say, go for it. It is your club, you were hired to be the head coach. Bring back Marshall, and sit DHB, you got the hot hands or Moore and Hagan. You know hererra prolly scared of ya, so no need to worry bout him. You just can that out-dated mano mano crap and get crazy out there.

Q: How do you assess where the defense is at right now?
Coach Jackson: This is how I assess our defense. This is a defense that has not had 11 starters playing together on a field yet and we still won’t. I can’t truly assess where we are and what we are until we go play a game where all 11 defensive starters are on the football field playing together, walking out there together and competing together. Do I think we have the makings of a very good defensive football team? Yes I do. Do I think we need to improve and get better? Yes I do. Do I think the players understand that and are willing to accept that challenge? Yes I do. They will play well and I feel very comfortable with that.

Cmon guys, did you really think he’d answer questions about which of his teammates should start? Or that the moderators would ask him those questions? How are those questions normally answered by players/coaches?
“Those guys are tough and battling hard for a spot” or “Man, I’m not really focused on who’s gonna start, that’s up to the coaches” or “That’s not for me to worry about, that’s for you guys to debate. I’m just trying to get ready for Denver”.
Even if those questions were posed to him and he answered, all we would’ve gotten would be cliches that would’ve given no more insight & probably pissed half of you off anyway. If you expected any real insight to come from this it’s you who are missing something. I wouldn’t be suprised if Herrera wasn’t right there proofreading the Q&A’s.

The signing of Mr. Leman, does give the Raiders an extra player to play in the final preseason game and to see what he has got in his game to contribute.
Raiders’ linebackers have not been that impressive, so he has a legitimate shot to make the team.
Special teams he might be able to make an immediate impact as well;
or he might play alot of minutes so as that Mr. McClain will only have to play a series or two.
We do need a backup MLB.

Pryor did get a 7 on his Wonderlic Test then on his second try he got a 21 in a do over.
They let him do it again. They did that to Vince Young too.
Wasted draft pick!

Bob McGinn of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, who initially reported that Pryor scored a seven on the test, now reports that Pryor got a 21 on his next-day do-over.
We’ve confirmed that Pryor indeed took the test a second time. Pryor’s first crack at the Wonderlic came immediately after his August 20 Pro Day workout. McGinn reports that Pryor took the test again the next day.

August 31st, 2011 at 8:00 pm
Last season Raiders carried 10 defensive backs:
Nnamdi, Stanford, Chris, Jeremy, & Walter as CBs;
Huff, Branch, Eugene, Mitchell, & Brown as Ss.
Raiders will keep at least 9, in fact I cannot remeber a season where they did not have 9-11 DBs.

August 31st, 2011 at 8:07 pm
Locks:
CB: Routt, Johnson, Van Dyke = that’s it all others up for competition,
that leaves: Walter, Jeremy, Lito, Joey, Chimdi, & Sterling to compete for final 2 spots [Raiders will keep 5 CBs before they keep 5 safeties];
Safety: Huff, Branch, & Brown [Mitchell would be if not for his injury],
that leaves: Chimdi, Sterling, & Jerome competing for final 1-2 spots.
I think that Sterling as well as Chimdi might have an edge over the others as they seem to be able to play multiple DB positions.

You can throw the ‘its just pre season’ crap out the window, tho if the Raiders had played better and not given up 500+ yards last 2 games Hue probably feels better. If feel sorry for the fact that his hands are tied to the defensive scheme and Hue knows its antique. The thought of having to score 35 plus points a game prolly got him a little stressed too. Hue, just pimp hand your way into making your own decisions. You dictate what you want on the defensive side of the ball. You are the man, and if Al dont like it, whats he gonna do. Nothing, he cant. At least for the first eight games, go for it. If you can sweat some Al Davis tenure, you can get a job somewhere else. I say, go for it. It is your club, you were hired to be the head coach. Bring back Marshall, and sit DHB, you got the hot hands or Moore and Hagan. You know hererra prolly scared of ya, so no need to worry bout him. You just can that out-dated mano mano crap and get crazy out there.

Damn straight. If he’s got any sense he’ll do as he damn well pleases in order to win. Otherwise, he’ll quickly find himself in a lose lose situation. I don’t envy the guy.

Cmon guys, did you really think he’d answer questions about which of his teammates should start? Or that the moderators would ask him those questions? How are those questions normally answered by players/coaches?
“Those guys are tough and battling hard for a spot” or “Man, I’m not really focused on who’s gonna start, that’s up to the coaches” or “That’s not for me to worry about, that’s for you guys to debate. I’m just trying to get ready for Denver”.
Even if those questions were posed to him and he answered, all we would’ve gotten would be cliches that would’ve given no more insight & probably pissed half of you off anyway. If you expected any real insight to come from this it’s you who are missing something. I wouldn’t be suprised if Herrera wasn’t right there proofreading the Q&A’s.

No need to worry about opening night, I got this thing in the bag. As we are inching closer to opening night, time to break out the story of the JFB/Killians’ Irish Red story. Here we go:
In 2002, as expectations were high for the season, the Raiders started strong than lost 4 in a row to fall to 4-4. The friends and I in college decided we needed to do something big for the MNF game against the donkeys. Our resolution? We are getting a full keg………for the 6 of us. And we ain’t getting the cheap ish either. We settled (indiscrimanetely) on a kegger of Killians Irish Red for the big game. Needless to say, Rod Wood interecepted a goalline pass and took it 98 yards, Gannon completed a million passes in a row, and we won and went to the Super Bowl.
I forgot all about the actual beer for years. Than in 2008 I decided, hey let’s get some Killians’ Irish Red for the Denver road game, for old times sake. Well it made Jamarcus Russell look like Johnny Unitas, and we housed the donkeys. 2009, same thing, and this time, a half-sober Jamarcus led a comeback victory, and the Killians was hitting. Started telling the story in 2009, and continued in 2010 with a 12-ver of Killians, and watched the biggest beatdown in Bronco home history.
So as of now, we are 4-0 in Denver, when your boy drinks Killians Irish Red for road Denver games. And I NEVER drink it otherwise. Full disclosure, I am not Irish, nor do I really like the beer. But best believe I will be throwing them back on the 12th, and BEST BELIEVE THE RAIDERS WILL BE COMING OUT ON TOP.

hell he was a first rounder by the jets the same year we drafted dmc..

August 31st, 2011 at 8:52 pm
The perfect solution for Al Davis AND the fans is for ‘Coach’ to step down as GM and the day to day input etc. and just be a damm owner for crying out loud. Maybe just take a consultant type role, but the every day decision making should absolutely not be in his hands any longer if he is in fact overriding the head coach on how this team should be run on the field.
I’ve known many 82 year olds, and those that I would consider mentally and physically prepared and able to do the things necessary to properly run any organization, no less micro manage an NFL franchise, is very low in number.
Al Davis is probably more involved than ever before…and at 82 yrs. of age? C’mon, let’s be real here. This is not good.
Consult the great one on big decisions for his vast football knowledge, ut leave the day to day for others.
No respect is lost for “coach” for stepping away and the HC can finally be the one to the job he is hired to do.
If “Coach” is indeed micro managing the defense, then this is not a good thing. I say this with all due respect for Al Davis, as I have traditonally been an “Al guy”, but he’s 82 now. C’mon.

Its NOT going to be Moore and Hagan vs Denver …I’m virtually 100% sure thats not going to happen. A rookie and a journeyman? You have to be smoking something.
Hue isn’t that crazy.
———————————-
Whos had the most catches preseason? Who has the hot hands? Whos not afraid to stiff arm someone right in the face? My money says its Hagan and Moore. Book it, mark it down for a date two weeks from now, take it to the the bank. I been sayin this since day one, its gonna be Moore and Hagan. These boys can play ball. Im tellin ya if Hue dont start those cats it because a directive told him not to it is just that plain and simple I been tellin you but you dont listen but now you are becauseMoore and Hagan are the deal. And I will be in Seattle on friday night and get a first hand look at those guys and I will report back home and tell you Sunday night just what I thought. And Im gonna ask Hue what he thinks, I been tellin you this but you aint hearin it cause you got selective hearing……………..You got it, Period

Being winless in his first three exhibition games isn’t helping matters, either, he said.
“I like to play to win and I haven’t won yet,” Jackson said. “It’s pissing me off. That might be why I’m pissed.”
“““““““““““““““““““““““““““`
Welcome to our world, Coach. We’ve been pissed since Barrett Robbins got off his meds, and went AWOL to watch a donkey show in TJ………

Definately was a blow to the Raiders and you couldn’t of scripted a more bizzaro match up in the SB the next season and we is still payin for it to this day, thought we caught a break last year but Hue got a lot on his shoulders this year he got to clean up Als mess, and dont get me wrong I love Uncle Al dearly but the man leaves a lot garbage in his wake, he even leaves a lot of baggage in his wake and others got to clean it up I know they get paid to but Al could get alot more for his buck if he didn’t drop so much baggage. I trust Hue can get it going and I do believe that Uncle Al did the right thing hiring Hue, but DAMN, throw a mthrfcker a bone………………………………………………….Period

The ‘85 Bears (Super Bowl winners 15-1 reg. season) were 0-4 in the preseason that year.
The 2010 Bears were 0-4 as well and made it to the NFC championship game.
You are definitely in the minority with this. The way you PLAY in the preseason matters to the degree it gets you ready for the “REAL” season, but ask Super Bowl champions of the past if they give a rats red rip if they won any preseason games. The fact Hue cares about it doesn’t validate the importance of it and can be attributed to the fact it’s his first HC gig and he wants the feeling of walking off the field a winner in any capacity.

re: the LB’s
i went from thinking they were horrible to thinking there’s hope after closely watching the last game. they actually played very well. night and day from anything i’d seen from them before.
mcclain played aggressively and instinctively. came up strong to smash and took good angles. involved w/ a lot of plays. also covered really well.
groves actually played much better. played like a real LB, which he has had problems with.
wimbley played pretty well, although he wasn’t involved quite as much. still struggles in coverage but made a few nice plays.
blackstock and davis both had mixed reviews, but did show some aggression and strong hitting. i think they have a chance to help.
this leman guy might give us some ricky brown-type play. he’s a real LB. all-american and 2-time all-big ten. just a little light and probably a touch slow. he might help.
there’s not much out there from the first wave of cuts.
but remember, al davis and the coaching staff came into the season with the guys they thought would get it done. i’m not sure we’re gonna see a whole bunch of roster additions. the crew we have just might be getting better, based on ast game.
August 31st, 2011 at 9:41 pm
Hendu, when you put your name on the admin page you didnt use a cap h either.
August 31st, 2011 at 9:42 pm
I talked to my friend tonight about Hagan. They were on the NY Giants roster together. He said Hagan is for real. He talked to Hagan the other night and Hagan told him he just feels right and it’s his time to take the next step. I asked him why he didn’t climb the latter in NY. He said they had convinced him he wasn’t a good enough as a receiver but he was valuable on special teams. I guess it can be argued if they were right. Or maybe he just needed someone to believe in him and give him a chance to compete. So far so good. We shall see.

I will grant that while the final score of preseason games don’t mean squat, you’d like to see your starters and to a degree your second stringers play well. Heck, I admit that anytime I see guys who are wearing Raider uniforms I wanna see them win, but the final score is meaningless in the grand scheme of things.
I will say that I am looking for a bone as well, and what i’ve seen from our defense is horrible. I’ve seen NOTHING so far to suggest this defense will crack the top 30 in the league. NOTHING!

why anyone would think Moore and Hagan shouldnt be the startes is way beyond my ability to reckon with I just cant imagine Hue is that dumb not to start them. And if he doesnt it is because he was ordered by a directive hererra probably been whisperin into Als ear just to piss off Hue and the rest of the Raider faithfulcause who knows what kind of hidden agenda some of these people got. If Moore and Hagan dont start Hue will be pissed You think he was pissed today, u aint seen nothin I seen film he gets irate and you do not want to be near him.

Im so excited to go to the game friday i cant stand it. im gonna get to ask hue some questions and i know he cant tell me everything i want to know but it will be fun, now i dont want to call this a must win game but we must win the t.o.p., we must win with the #1 d units, we must win the 1st half yardage totals, we must win in the sack dept, must win in the passing game, must win in the smash mouth football dept. if we can do that, I dont give a rip bout the score, final score that is because the 4th qtr will be the garbage quarter.

Even a “no comment ” to some of the questions some of you seem upset that weren’t addressed would likely end up on Sportscenter. At least it was a change of pace from the same questions asked over and over again in here andin other live chats that can only be answered on the field in season.
Terelle Pryor:
I don’t care if he spelled his name wrong on the wonderlic, if the guy can extend the play a little, rush for 3 first downs a game, and either chuck it down field or dump it off to one of our playmakers then we gotan athlete for a 3rd round pick AND we get a free year to develop him. I am not too upset about that.
LB pick up:
Did we guarantee him 3 years at 12 mil? No. Relax.

I think Detroit Lions, Saint Louis Rams and Houston Texans will all make it. I think they’ll supprise a lot. Detroit and Saint Louis’ offenses should be pretty scary-good, and I think the Texan’s defense will be improved enough to have them take over the AFC Central.

Guys the Leman kid is familiar with his system when you get kids that are familiar with the system they can help teach other players. Blackstock and Leman can shorten the learning curve for the entire defense. If they can have an impact on the field it’s even better but for practical purposes it helps a lot.
August 31st, 2011 at 11:15 pm
Yeah. They can teach the UFL defense to all the other players.
August 31st, 2011 at 11:19 pm
i was thinking about this the other nite. here’s a look at the sub-.500 teams from last year:
wash–horrible qb situation and shanahan is showing he needed elway more than ever.
dallas–return of romo could be a big boost–he really is good–but their whole o-line is rebuilt. but they could push for the playoffs
detroit–getting a lot of hyp b/c of stafford/best. possible but stafford is a mystery still
minn–doubt it. mcnabb still has something left perhaps but #’s last year were poor and they lost rice.
carolina–a mess. we get slack about our drafts? these guys drafted a qb in the 1st round for 2 straight years! i mean way to stand behind clausen.
seattle–tarvaris jackson instead of hasselbeck? ’nuff said.
st.louis–bradford is for real. pretty decent last year. definite possibilities.
sf–yeah right. alex smith is still there.
arizona–hmm. maybe. kolb, fitz. beanie. weak division.
miami–mmm. not high on hennie. lost ricky and ronnie. if they lost bobby and mike, i’d say “cool it now”. not sold.
buff–lost lee evans. not good.
cle–colt might be okay. hillis is great. they could make a move.
cincy–andy dalton? please.
hou–great offense–could rise fast
tenn–who do they even have of johnson sits?
den–mmm. maybe will improve a bit but the other teams in their division will give them trouble.
so, i’m gonna say dallas, arizona, cleveland, and houston have the best shots at making playoffs. i’ll give it to arizona b/c they have the easiest division.
August 31st, 2011 at 11:24 pm
AZ looks veery good, I have changed my mind about Kolb he is throwing darts. i’m very impressed with Kolb they should win that division easily they hav e the best defense and it looks like they may have as good a QB as St Louis but the difference is the WR’s they have and the runnning game.
AZ could win 10 games really they will score some points they just can’t give up 30+ pper game.

of the worst teams, wash has a decent run game. min has AP and mcnabb isn’t horrendous yet. buf could do a little better than i said. with johnson, tenn will at least be able to run the ball. denver will likely get a little better w/ john fox.
that leaves the truly awful teams as seattle, carolina, and cincinnati.
seattle could actually do much worse now that i think of it. i mean t.jackson is the best u can do to replace hasselbeck? and m.lynch is ur rb?
carolina at least has deangelo williams and j.stewart, so maybe they can play some ball control. but cam will struggle as a rookie.
cincy has andy dalton, c.benson, and who at wr? yuck.
but of the three, seattle’s defense was by far the worst last year. so maybe seattle has the worst record.
August 31st, 2011 at 11:59 pm
I don’t think Indy will be able to sustain that high of a level again this year. It’s all on the shoulders of Manning. Without him they are a team with a losing record. I’d say they’re 9-7 this year or 10-6 at best. I don’t think they make it far into the playoffs.
September 1st, 2011 at 12:02 am
Payton Manning is taking a real chance rushing back to get off to a fast start. If he gets hit as much as he did last year it could end his season very early.
September 1st, 2011 at 12:10 am
Yep, I don’t think he’ll last the whole unfortunately. I like him as a player, and he has one of the fastest reaction times/releases in the game. But his O’Line really doesn’t give him much time…and he’s getting a bit older.
September 1st, 2011 at 12:11 am
after some thought, i will say i think tenn might be alittle better than i said, b/c of c.johnson and hasselbeck. not good but not horrendous.
it’s a qb league and who has the worst qb situations?
wash, car, sea, cin
wash–actually i was wrong. they suck at running the ball (#30 last year). beck/grossman at qb. hightower/torain at rb. #31 defense last year.
car–runs ok. good backs. young, erratic qb play a definite. #18 defense last year.
sea–tarvaris and marshawn. #27 defense last year.
cin–dalton/benson. #15 defense last year.
let’s see, i’ll say since defense will help keep them in games some of the time, car and cin will be marginally better.
between wash and sea, the skins had a decent offense last year while sea was horrible, even w/ hasselbeck.
cin 4-12
sea 3-13
car 3-14
was 2-14

September 1st, 2011 at 12:26 am
hue said today that the seattle game is dress rehearsal #2. read between the lines and i think we will see the starters quite a bit. i think he wants to win this game for some momentum. and i’m thinking al davis may want to embarrass cable/gallery/miller. seattle is horrible so i think we may see the raiders crush them.
September 1st, 2011 at 12:28 am
by the way, NEVER underestimate peyton manning.
September 1st, 2011 at 12:32 am
Although it’s only preseason, Seattle will still be a good test for us. Hue will probably plays his starters a little longer than anticipated because he wants to get that first win, real bad like.
It’s a road game and that makes it harder and they’re playing in Seattle which can get very loud. Seattle, even with it’s sucky record, made it to the playoffs last year and that’s a plus for them. Ya, weak division but they still made it in.
So Hue wants the win, badly, and it will set the stage for our game with Denver. We must win in Denver or we’re in for a negative season, less than 8 wins. If we can win Denver and Buffalo, both road games, we just might “upset” the Jets (ya, it’s a long shot, but things happen, turnovers, etc). If we can go 3-0 then the loss to NE isn’t a big deal. Even if we’re 2-2 after NE, will be OK. Bottom line, “Just Win Baby!”
September 1st, 2011 at 12:35 am
Rob_Raider…post 321:
Good point about the connection of Cable, Miller and Gallery. Ya, Al will want to win that game, as it supports his firing of Cable and validates his hiring of Hue Jackson as head coach.
September 1st, 2011 at 12:35 am
Yeah you’re right but one thing that will make a coward out of anyone is injury and pain. If he’s healthy and I sincerely hope he is because that is a serious injury. But if he’s not and that thing gets pounded on he’ll feel it and he wont be the same.
You can play hurt but you cannot play injured, trust me if he’s not right the wrong hit can end his season and even his career ask Steve Young. Ask Troy Aikman the wrong hit in the right spot but be devastating.
September 1st, 2011 at 12:39 am
Manning is too smart and experienced and he’s making way too much money to be playing “injured.” You’re right, that would be stupid and it would be putting to much at stake. If he plays, then he’s probably 95% and there is no lingering injury to play in the matter.
September 1st, 2011 at 12:40 am
they did go 7-9. but stl had a rookie qb. az had derek anderson, and sf had alex smith. hasselbeck was the key there.
they were really bad actually. #28 offense. #27 defense. and now they have tarvaris jackson at qb. we will be able to tell quite a bit by how we look when the #1’s are in.
September 1st, 2011 at 12:41 am
ask gannon, eh?
September 1st, 2011 at 12:42 am
I sure hope that McFadden and Ford get to play this Friday. Not a lot, maybe 2 series of downs, but some exposure. It’s will make them both feel more confident up in Denver with some of the cob webs blown away.
September 1st, 2011 at 12:42 am
Tom Cable may have said something that hasn’t hit the media and set Hue off. We’ve been beaten badly during the preseason eventough it doesn’t count he’s probably not feeling it. But what I don’t want him to do is make the mistake off putting a front line player at risk so he can say he beat Cable. I know Pete Carrol is not fond of Mr Davis and wouldn’t hesitate to run his mouth so that could’ve been what Hue is referring to.
All I can say is please Hue look at the bigger picture we want to win the west a loss to Denver puts us in the hole. Do not risk JC or Ford or DMC even TJ on these bums and hurt us in the long run. Play the starters for a series and get them OUT. Mop up with the srcubs and get ready for Denver we cannot afford to lose our opener. THAT is the MUST WIN!!!
September 1st, 2011 at 12:44 am
Hey guys, nice chatting with you for a few minutes, but I’m calling it a nite. And, since today is now Thursday, we can say that we play tomorrow. Nice.
September 1st, 2011 at 12:45 am
No wya keep DMC and Ford safe and sound if I see DMC dressed and Ford in the game. I will think less of Hue because he will have taken his eye off the prize. This Friday game is nothing but a sink hole, stay away.
I’m sick of the preseason I want to see T Pryor that is about it.
September 1st, 2011 at 12:45 am
i really am getting excited for the den game.
September 1st, 2011 at 12:46 am
agree…..agres and agree. Denver is a must WIN. nite.
September 1st, 2011 at 12:46 am
the prize is the division championship not some meaningles preseaon game no one will remember unless we lose a key player in it.
September 1st, 2011 at 12:51 am
Hue’s mad because instead of building a bully, thus far his building a bottom bunk prison queen.
September 1st, 2011 at 12:52 am
It would be the best thing for Cable to sucker Hue into playing Camp or some frontline player and they hurt him. Cable will have won even if they lose.
September 1st, 2011 at 12:52 am
lmao. He’s probably mad at Davis already.
September 1st, 2011 at 12:53 am
I mean, think about it. He’s mad, wont’ say what it is. Just bizarre. Usually bizarre things around here lead right back to Al.

Not bad but I think Ryan is a bit high and Vick is definitely too low.
September 1st, 2011 at 1:07 am
maybe. ryan is on the rise though and he will be on a good team. vick was fantastic last season and he’ll be very good again, but i have a hunch he may not be quite as sharp as a passer and defenses may gameplan for him better. but he is good and philly will be tuff. these are just where i feel the qb’s might end up. i think campbell could jump up a few notches. i could see him having better 3’s than big ben, stafford, cassell, kolb, and/or bradford. he’s been middle of the pack for his career but he may take a big jump this year for several reasons. i hope so anyway.
September 1st, 2011 at 1:07 am
#’s, not 3’s
September 1st, 2011 at 1:14 am
OK I just think what Vick brings to the table is so extraordinary the only thing that could stop that guy is health.
September 1st, 2011 at 1:20 am
my thoughts on j.campbell:
as that great stat they showed last game said, he has been perfectly middle of the pack for his career, but there are reasons other than wishful thinking to believe he may have a significantly better season than ever before.
1) he is in the same system for the 2nd year, for the first time ever in his college or pro career. that is a big deal. and he is close personally to al saunders. for that reason alone, i think it was a great hire. for a qb, whose biggest flaw as been that has looked tentative, unsure, and uneasy, having a good comfort level is important, allowing him to just use his talent more naturally and instinctively.
2) he is in his prime, at 29 yrs old
3) he has gradually improved every year, including playing quite well down the stretch last year.
4) his wr’s should be dramatically better this year. less dependence on z.miller.
i’m not a fool. i don’t think he will be in the league of manning or brady. but it’s perfectly reasonable that he could be in the top half and even close to top ten this year.
September 1st, 2011 at 1:23 am
I’ll give you Brees Brady Manning and Rodgers over Vick but no one else not even Rivers. Vick can do things rivers can’t dream of. And i’m not talking about speed. Vick has a better arm he’s every bit as accurate and his got the mobility Rivers doesn’t have. I put Vick in the top 5 and so does his team they just gave him 100$$$ mill. To prove it..
September 1st, 2011 at 1:26 am
Rob I’ve been saying that all offseason for the very same reason you just delineated, he’s comfortable. For the first time in his career he’s not guessing ans hoping things go right he knows he can trust certain players to get the job done and make plays. You can see it in his demeanor and the team sees it as well.
September 1st, 2011 at 1:30 am
it’s morning man i’m out…..
c ya!
September 1st, 2011 at 1:35 am
i think the final piece will be when the wr picture really sorts itself out. after the first few games, as 2 or 3 of the 6 really step forward, he will start to have a rapport w/ them and his game will take off.
i know people gripe that dhb will likely start game 1 and i understand what they’re saying. but if he does, and he does well, then it’s all good. if he struggles, and guys like hagan and moore step up, dhb will see less time in the rotation. these things will sort themselves out in the first 3 games. the good thing is that we have 6 guys who show some real ability. ford is exciting. moore is a natural. hagan is emerging. murphy, whenever he gets healthy has already done pretty well at times. chaz, well if he really ever gets healthy, he could be better than any of them, but i’m just glad that at this point, he will be a bonus if it ever happens. as for dhb, we’ll see. i think we’ll know very soon.
September 1st, 2011 at 2:20 am
On the QBs, I think that Manning is the best. The reason? Take any of the other top guys that you named there…
Brees, Brady, Rodgers and put in another QB that’s descent and they will still put up big numbers (like those two back-ups did in Detroit last year and like they did in NE when Brady was hurt).
Take Manning out of that offense in Indy and suddenly I don’t think they’ll look so hot. His ability to read the defense, react quickly, find the open receiver, throw on a dime and see the entire field is unparalleled I think.
On Vick, he played really hot for a few games last year, but I don’t think he’ll maintain that level. I’d rank him behind brady, manning,brees, rodgers,rivers but not behind people like Romo etc. on that list.
September 1st, 2011 at 2:22 am
DHB shouldn’t start Game 1. There are right now 3 healthy receivers better than him (Murphy and Schillens aren’t healthy).
He’s developing each year. I’m sure each year he’ll become more and more solid. Maybe he can be a future starter. Not yet though.
September 1st, 2011 at 2:25 am
I look at DHB and I remember meecham from the saints. Guy was drafted and it took him till his 3rd year to contribute. Now he is making plays all over the damn field. He also had guys like the 4th round wonder colston doing much better than him in his first year. He still has time to show us he can big a big time receiver. U cannot teach speed.
As for steve cork my balls, he still hasn’t even posted something about orgies wonderlic. U serious man?! Bloging on this site isn’t for passive media types, it’s about loving the raiders. As much as Jerry played the fence, u could hear how his emotions came thru after a rough loss or some form of news it was only minutes till he said his piece.
Get ur head right Steven. And prove me wrong. Perverbial Guns blazing, I’m out for u.

Somewhat strange line move on the Raid/Mule game.
Early bird line had been sitting at Denver -1 for several weeks. Some Raider money actually moved it to Pick for a day or two, but it’s been a solid Den -1 for almost the entire preseason.
Suddenly, the game went to Denver -3. On the parlay cards I’ve seen, it’s 3.5.
So there’s been a pretty big rush of Denver money. Usually, this occurs when a syndicate decides to take a position which could be based on a matchup analysis or based on rumors/inside info about injuries/suspensions.
Doubt this is related to Hue being so ticked off yesterday, but you never know.
Could be that something is brewing, or that the big money ’sharpies’ have decided that, for whatever reasons, this is a bad spot for Oakland.
Of course, this just makes the Raids +3 or maybe even the money line look that much sweeter !

September 1st, 2011 at 5:24 am
We really have no idea how mad Hue is or what he is mad about. Its all speculation.
My guess would be the teams defense.
As for some of the other wild speculation, Hue is mature and wise man, so cross off anything stupid or immature.
He cant be mad at Al. Hue knew what he was getting into. If it is true that Al runs the show then Hue would have already accepted it. And if Al lied to Hue and changed the rules, then Hue would just say ” I am doing what I was told to do”
I dont run with all the BS about Al making many decisions and forcing them on coaches. I am sure he has done it before but I doubt he is making much input today.

Actually, I was one of the few who thought that John Marshall was doing a decent job considering that, Al will and has meddled into everything that he has a right to do—but it doesnt make it right.
Lets face it some of us dont like the C.Breshnahan hire, however we are gonna have to see what happens when the real games start. I admit, I dont like what Ive seen so far, and with or without Nnamdi our defense has taken a step back and it sure is not Jacksons fault–Uncle Al is pulling his strings and somehow even with what appears to be an potentially explosive offense we will probably be on the lower end of a lot of 34-31 games…I also have the feeling that if Hue had is druthers he would fire Breshnahan, and would have hired the NY-Jets Dennis Thurmond as he D-Coord. In fact he would have never hired Breshnahan.
Lets face it, any coach that can win in our environment, has to be one heckuva coach (Chucky) because Al makes it almost impossible.
Plus, I dont see how Glassz Schilens makes team,because DHB being handpicked by Al as a Number# (with huge contract) automatically allows him to make the cut and possibly even start…and I believe that if Hue could he would get rid of both of Schilens and DHB.

I’d love for him to succeed but the guy isn’t an accurate qb. Similar skillset to V Young and he’s on the bench. We should start developing him as as a receiver and that’s not a racist comment

Jackson refused to divulge the source of his disconten, though he admitted that the time constraints of being an NFL coach have prevented him from working out as often as he likes and trading barbs with the fellas at the gym.
Being winless in his first three exhibition games isn’t helping matters, either, he said

September 1st, 2011 at 6:37 am
What did TK say yesterday? Did he bash Al for Kiff?
September 1st, 2011 at 6:39 am
I agree on the patsies. Brady is on the decline. The Jets worry me more and they have plenty of problems.
I could easily see us going 4-0 but Buffalo will be tough. They are playing better, we are traveling cross country after a monday night game in Dungver.
They might be better off going straight to buffalo after the game
September 1st, 2011 at 6:48 am
4-0 will be a good place to be heading out to Houston! However, I want to see a 1-0 first!
And btw: who is that LB that we picked up of waivers last night? I mean…really?

Thec,
who cares about Warren or Williams in Dungver’s defensive front seven?
Seriously!
That defense is trash bro. thunder, lightning & roadrunner for 300 rushing yards
Not worried about that statue Kyle Orton throwing to Lloyd & Royal with Routt & CJ37 in coverage.
Their 3rd or 4th WR against DVD or whoever might be the major challenge.
+++++++
Of course however, my comments were more directed towards the Las Vegas line. I am a little puzzled knowing the injuries that denver has why would they be favorite?
September 1st, 2011 at 7:40 am
Since 2002, I think! Last year we broke that “Home Opener” thing in beating the Rams, but still…
September 1st, 2011 at 7:41 am
If you can’t get fired up for the first game of the season then you might as well fold up the tents and go home.
September 1st, 2011 at 7:42 am
Not to mention they have a new coaching staff, new Defense, and a lot of moving, old, or injured parts…
September 1st, 2011 at 7:42 am
2002 I think is the last time we won the opener
September 1st, 2011 at 7:42 am
2002?? Damn,that sucks big time.
September 1st, 2011 at 7:48 am
02 was last time we won opener….vs Seattle
September 1st, 2011 at 7:48 am
Ironic isn’t it?…2002, we win 4 in a row, then went to the Super Bowl
September 1st, 2011 at 7:49 am
We better win the first tow games, otherwise lookd for a very bad start to the year with the Jets and Pats coming to town after that.

Thec,
because John Fox wants to re-establish the run in Denver and the Raiders have an AWFUL run defense
plus the Raiders nickel & dime corners are trash, so if they spread us out and we can’t get to the QB it’s gonna be a long day
September 1st, 2011 at 7:49 am
Didnt we start that year 8-0, drop 4 straight then win the last 4 to finish 12-4?

I can appreciate the summary, you addressed our D side based on preseason however, our offense is going to be a load to contain…I dont see many if any 3 and outs, punts. Nothing on denvers D suggest they have a chance in hades against this offese…

After losing 4 in a row that year, everyone wrote us off…especially after losing that OT at home against the 9ers…then next, Monday night in Denver, and Rod Woodson ran back that INT for a TD…it was on!

Just heard Peter King on the Herd show, and he brought up something interesting.
Basically, he was interviewing Sean Peyton to discuss the complexity of the NFL these days. King looked at film with Peyton and concluded that every-team in the NFL runs a hybrid-everything.
He said every team in the NFL will run some ZBS. Every team in the NFL will run some 3-4 or 4-3.
Went on to say that the Patriots (known as an exclusive 3-4 team) actually lined up with 4 D-lineman on the field 42% of the time, and with 3 D-lineman 39% of the time.
So there is no “switching back to a 3-4″, or moving away from the ZBS or anything like that, as every time runs some type of hybrid.
Thought it was interesting.

write on each separate flash card all combos from 19-0 to 0-16. shuffle ‘em up and lay ‘em out, then have baby Long Worthy pick the card representing this season’s Raider won-loss record.

That is crazy! I can just watch our offense operate in preseason including the line and know Hue does a better job of play calling than Cable. Heck, the offense did not come alive until Hue arrived.

Hue is clearly more media-friendly, charismatic, and a better play-caller than Cable. No debate whatsoever there.
I do worry though, that there is an element of all-hat and no-cattle to Hue.
And people that talk a HUGE game, as Hue has done the last 6 months, those things can go sour without backing it up a lot quicker than one who speaks softly.

All this DHB is a great-blocker talk reminds me of when the SF Giants had JT Snow at first-base and was told of how great he was defensively.
You don’t ask a WR to hang his hat on blocking, nor do you ask a first-baseman to hit .270 with 5 home runs but play a slick defensive first base.
Really, how much does DHB’s blocking over the alternative WR really improve our offense?
September 1st, 2011 at 8:43 am

The Steelers will have nine defensive starters over 30 years old this year. They are counting on guys like Harrison, Troy Polamalu, Aaron Smith, and Ike Taylor to stay healthy and avoid the ravages of father time.

I think it has a ring to it.

since I don’t play fantasy football I really don’t care who starts, what anyone’s stats are or what anyone did yesterday. if the ghosts of Joe Aska and Alvis Whitted score the TDs its fine by me.
September 1st, 2011 at 8:47 am
the roster has been downgraded thanks to Al
***
Dakota,
what ???
Al Davis drafted Terrelle Pryor, Taiwan Jones, Denny Moore, David Ausberry, Stefen Wisniewski & Joseph Barksdale
that’s awesome
not sold on DVD or Chekwa (yet)
Al Davis brought in free agents Trent Edwards, Derek Hagan, Kevin Boss, Stephon Heyer, Darryl Blackstock & Lito Sheppard
not sold on Edwards or Blackstock (yet)
September 1st, 2011 at 8:48 am
Juke Jones? Nuice, but I’ll go with the “Taiwan Torpedo.”
September 1st, 2011 at 8:48 am
Starting WR’s are the same as they were when the lockout ended DHB/Ford. Only way it changes is if Ford is still nicked.

All this DHB is a great-blocker talk reminds me of when the SF Giants had JT Snow at first-base and was told of how great he was defensively.
You don’t ask a WR to hang his hat on blocking, nor do you ask a first-baseman to hit .270 with 5 home runs but play a slick defensive first base.
Really, how much does DHB’s blocking over the alternative WR really improve our offense?
++++++++++++++++++
Hagan had a very nice block, I believe, on Jones’ long TD run. If Hagan can block and catch and run routs, and DHB can only block….well…..
————————————
Dakota – Quiet as it is kept Hagan is our best WR on the team so far. Very consistant WR play.
September 1st, 2011 at 8:48 am
Maybe you don’t but I can guarantee every player on the team does and is watching to see how it unfolds.
Stop making excuses DHB is a better blocker and woo woo woo blah blah blah.
When you make excuses like that you look like a suck up!
************************************
Who is making excuses? Im no DHB supporter, I simply stated a fact DHB is a better blocker than the other wideouts, so if you are running the ball who are you going to put in? There is no excuse at all. Who cares whice wide outs are on the field if we are handing the rock to DMAC?
Did you even read the part where I said in passing situations DHB shouldnt be on the field?

I saw DHB running down the sideline 1-1 with the DB on a highly telegraphed play to start the last game…….and the safety wasn’t within 20 yards.
So I don’t buy the decoy either. Week before, Soup overthrew Moore near the end zone with 3 defenders on him, while DHB was running around again, 1-1 with his man.
JAX to end the game last year, deep ball he wiffed on…..no safety in sight.
The decoy thing is more nonsense, IMO.
September 1st, 2011 at 8:50 am
He hasnt even been that impressive, i like the idea of a bruising FB clearing the way, but just because hes the only one we have doesnt mean he’s any good.

DHB can not catch the ball with his back to the QB.
Look at that sideline deep pass last week.
He had single coverage, his man beat, and Soup dropped in a beautiful pass.
Instead of catching the ball over his shoulder and housing the play (Soup threw such a great pass that the defender couldn’t make a play on the ball), he fell to the ground on his own doing, trying to twist and turn to his comfort level, which is facing the QB and the ball.
That may have been the most ridiculous DHB moment, amongst the many.

I made two predictions I will stand behind:
-DHB will have more inactive weeks than TD receptions this season
-Jacoby Ford 7 TD’s in his rookie year, will be more TD’s than DHB has in his Raider career.
Hope I am wrong on both, but I think I will get AT LEAST one of these right.

Ford blew up last year in the second half but I’m not sure he is better than Hagan.

Can we do a frankenstein experiment and combine Murph/DHB/Hagan…?

I always wanted to put Garbagekowski’s heart and brain in Russell’s body (back when he was still in a little shape anyhow).
====================================================
Im not sure what Murph would add to that Mix..Perhaps a Jacoby, DHB, Moore, Hagan Hybrid would take over the NFL and possibly the free world though…

‘Sup fellas.
It’s kinda amazing how one of the Raiders biggest weaknesses, the WR position has turned into a seeming strength almost overnight.
It’s true we still have to wait and see if these guys hold up in the regular season, but so far they have been encouraging.
We went from trying to depend on the oft-injured Chaz, inconsistant L Murphy and disapointing DHB, with the only dependable recieving option in TE Zach Miller to where we are now.
It started last year with the drafting of Jacoby Ford, and his breakout game vs KC. Now we have an apparent steal in D Moore and a great free agent pick up in Hagan.
This all of a sudden looks like one of the more talented and deepest position groups on the team. Now, hoping Chaz can somehow stay healthy almost seems like a luxury and not absolutely paramount for any chance at success.
As long as these guys aren’t just training camp and preseason flashes in the pan, and I don’t believe they are…this offense has the chance to be very explosive. Teams will not be able to just load up with eight in the box to stop the run, or simply double Zach on every 3rd down.
This offense has the potential to be way more multi-dimensional and effective. And last year they were a top 10 Offense. They could be top 5 if all goes well.

However:
So far, Saunders seems like the guy who likes to find mismatches for his back field and that prohibits Tonga from being on the field. I don’t see why we can’t keep both and cut someone else.

Tonga’s nice.
The problem becomes can we use both FBs without giving away what we’re doing?
Tonga would have to catch enough screens to make sure his presence isn’t an automatic run in the eyes of the defense and Marcell would have to continue to stay in for blocking plays.
Unless you take on the John Madden Bob Trey O philosophy of “yeah, everyone in the stadium knows what we’re gonna run… what are you gonna do about it?”

Anyone know how the Raids voted on the rule to move the KO up to the 35 ?
Everyone likes to mention the Bears as the team that gets fkd most by this rule change bcz of Hester.
I think the rule change screws the Raids more than any other team.
HJAX blows a lot of smoke, but he’s not wrong when he says JFord is the premiere KO returner in the NFL.
So of course, the NFL virtually does away with KO returns with this dumbass rule.
Janikowski is one of the best at kicking deep and limiting returns, so let’s make it easy for every kicker to bang em deep in the EZ and eliminate another Raider advantage.
I know the Bears voted against the rule change. Curious if the Raids had the brains to do the same.

Bayless is a quack that needs controversy in his statements to be effective and get an ear, just like the PFT website. Using the Raiders for some attention. Just ask Jalen Rose what he thinks of Bayless.
To pick Seattle and Oakland as 1 and 2 worst is plain ignorance and yes, controversial.
At first I thought it was Kenny Bayless, was laughing at the racist comments, until realized the longshot and that Skip existed.
September 1st, 2011 at 11:14 am
When it gets cold balls will not be kicked into the end zone and the defense has an extra 5 yards to nail people.
Kickers need to learn to kick higher and put that ball on the 5 yard line. This rule will get more people hurt when it is cold or windy.
Good kickers will adjust and they have an 5 yard advantage on getting downfield.
It makes no sense like most everything else going on in the world.

Yes, I’ve heard about that.
I understand where he’s coming from about the xpt being virtually automatic, and it might make things more interesting to make the kick longer. If the percentage of successful xpt kicks went down it would also lead to more 2 point conversion attempts.
Could change strategy and make the game more interesting.
I’d keep an open mind regarding a rule change there.
But first order of business is to bring back KO returns. The new KO rule stinks.

I agree with that totally! My older brother broke his leg Sophomore year playing football and my mom told him that he cannot play anymore. 7 years later, my mom yelled at me for even thinking of it!

Now a certain someone is gonna tell me I’m smokin something and I aint, he also gonna tell me the coaches see DHB everyday in practice and we dont’ But here is what I am going to tell the certain someone, we only see DHB in the games and he aint as good as Ford, Moore, Hagan so what is the deal? If DHB starts over Moore or Hagan (Ford on KOs’ and WR in the 4th qtr) then that is a over-ride fron the owners box, a directive, and it tells me Hue has his hands tied when it comes to the WR set.

Rob,
good point. You will notice that major change in corporations, LLC’s , and euntrepneurships are usually driven by lawyers and lawsuits. In the NFL, which has mostly not given a f*%k about players for decades, is on notice. The NFL is now large enough to absorb major lawsuit losses, so the NFLPA and lawyers are ready to take it on and take their bite.
It is happening to every major corp in the nation on a continual basis.
For example, if you want the NFL to reconsider that charging $9.50 for 14 ounces of Bud Light is gouging the fans, get a lawyer behind you.

I really don’t know why we’ve had issues playing the east coast teams. The time difference should not be a factor, playing at 10 oclock. Last year cable started practice earlier that week in preperation for the Jags game. Why is it so difficult to play at 10, do these guys roll out of bed at 9? I know Tommy stated last year he likes to sleep in and didn’t like Cables early practices.
September 1st, 2011 at 11:46 am
Who’s the better option in the slot?
Ford or DHB?

September 1st, 2011 at 11:49 am
Ford is a bigger threat across the board.
September 1st, 2011 at 11:49 am
The reason I ask is this, is beacause we all know Davis will force Hue to insert DHB in the game.
September 1st, 2011 at 11:50 am
The NFL will never give up kickoffs and extra points because of the commercial revenue.

_____________________________________________________
Not saying this is not real, but I just do not understand it. If Ford and Moore play over DHB how does Davis loose face?
Everybody says that Davis is the guy who runs the draft? If Davis picked Ford and Moore in the fourth and fifth round and they are starting caliber receivers, isn’t that somthing to be proud of?

Rob, I know football is violent. That’s one of the reasons I watch it. Same goes for boxing and MMA.
I wouldn’t tell you to let your son compete in any dangerous sport if you feel there’s a substantial risk of injury.
But I also don’t want the NFL pussified. I prefer seeing kickoff returns rather than having an almost automatic placing the ball at the 20, even if it increases risk to the players.
I also don’t like the extra protection QBs are getting these days. You see the hit the Raids got penalized for against the Saints ? How about the penalty against the Browns for hitting Vick ? Those were good, clean hard hits by guys going full speed. Both the Raids and Browns got 15 yard penalties.
Football is a violent sport and injuries are going to happen. I’m for attempting to maximizing player safety, but not at the expense of eliminating the excitement of kickoff returns or turning the NFL into a two hand touch league.

Final tuneup today for the All Star Beeecham Labor Day Party Jam. This bad boy is going all weekend long, I’m anticipating I’ll have to replace the motor in the PARTYDUDE 8000 at least 4 times.
My ladies just got back from Costco with 18 lbs of spicy kielbasa and 15 watermelons. Boo Yah.
And yes nerds, I’ve got a super max pack of Magnums already tucked safely in my backpack and I’ve been practicing my quick draw wrap and seal technique.
Let’s just say that foreplay won’t be necessary, if you know what I mean.
Heading down to the pool now to scope honies and pound a few Long Islands. Pretty sure I’ll be getting some play before the Togo’s party subs arrive.

For better or worse, we should see a lot of Chekwa at safety tomorrow. The rook hasn’t had his chance to show his skills in action, IMO.

How about the penalty against the Browns for hitting Vick ? Those were good, clean hard hits by guys going full speed. Both the Raids and Browns got 15 yard penalties.
_____________________________________________________
One thing that pisses me off it is certain QBs get the calls and other do not. Also if you o-lineman blocks a D-Lineman into the QB they should not be penalized.

I just kicked out that uselaess old man and his make believe world and told him if wanted the trailer, he’d have to make sure I was passed out before I let him step back here in this dump.
But when I dont pay the rent and the rats are running the place, he can have it back. He” be more at home with the rats anyway, more like his kind, and the cock-roaches, he can have them too.
But I’m gonna let every man in the trailer park in on this one, cause when lard hole comes back, he aint gonna recognise this BBW out for lovin.

Sterling Moore or Lito Sheppard dropped for Walt McFadden isn’t what I want – but it wouldn’t surprise me
Steve & Jerry wondered the same by stating often times Al Davis will keep a guy just because he drafted him, even if outplayed by an undrafted rookie.
Shepp hasn’t even played a game for us yet and signed too late to be mentioned in any training camp tweets. The guy has been downright AWFUL since he left Philly. I hope he regains that 2x Pro Bowl mojo – but there’s no guarantee. There’s a reason his agent sent a letter to every NFL team stating my client will play for the vet minimum!

The guy played for BYU as Harvey Unga’s lead blocker and wasn’t even drafted. 30+ teams passed 7 times. the Raiders placed him on the practice squad where 30+ teams could have signed him to their active roster (again) and passed.
Unga himself is probably heading for the Bears practice squad … whenever he decides to rejoin the team (left for “personal reasons” and Chicago gets a roster exemption for him)

You gotta understand how the diabolical Old Creeper thinks. He lets Jackson start whomever he wants: Hagan, Moore, whoever. Then the first time the guy makes a mistake a call is placed down to the field, and you damn well know what the order is. Put DHB in. Then for the rest of the year Davis let’s everybody know “I told you so.” And Jackson simmers because, of course, this pathetic little power play happens throughout the season, involving different players. Dysfunction junction. And you wonder why things are the same every year.
