Dempsey wanted to be a Raider
By Jerry McDonald - NFL Writer
Thursday, September 15th, 2011 at 12:05 am in Oakland Raiders.
Tracked down Tom Dempsey for a story in Thursday’s Bay Area News Group papers to get his reaction on having his record 63-yard field goal distance tied for a second time by Sebastian Janikowski.
You can read about Dempsey and Janikowski at this link.
Toward the end of our conversation, Dempsey, 64, relayed a story about a wish he had to play for the Raiders.
Dempsey, who at the time was playing for the Philadelphia Eagles, was serving as a player representative when he came out of a negotiating commitee meeting and came face to face with Al Davis in a hallway. Dempsey had always admired the Raiders for their willingness to do whatever it took to win.
“It seemed like there was never any air conditioning in the visitors’ locker room. I just loved their style. I truly did,” Dempsey said. “He came up to me and said, `Tom, they’re trying to trade you. Would you like to play for me?’
“I looked at him right in the eye and said, `If you’ve got a black jersey I’ll put it on right now.’ I liked the old time Raiders. A damn good football team. But I wound up getting traded to the Rams because they knew I wanted to come to the Raiders.”
George Blanda remained the Raiders place kicker in 1974 and 1975 before giving way to Errol Mann in 1976.
Dempsey said he plans on writing a letter to Janikowski to congratulate him and was interested in talking to him in person.

That Orton Fumble was not luck!
Orton saw #99 coming untouched, wet ‘em, and dropped the ball out of fear reflex!
Houston caused that fumble without even touching anybody!

I have not stayed up that late since the last time I almost got laid. But it was worth it. Not quite the runaway I was expecting.
The mules cannot be that much better. I think it was a combo of first game jitters.
We will destroy the Bills though. I bet we can put up 48 points on them
September 15th, 2011 at 5:37 am
Sure the Bills were dead last vs the run last year, but they’re a very different team this year. Unlike the Broncos they did something about it by drafting that big boy Dareus out of ‘Bama. They also acquired a solid Run supporting Lb in Nick Barnett. Kyle Williams is a high effort guy, so it’s not gonna be a walk in the park for our Running game. Hopefully JC can create a passing game come Sunday. As far as their Offense vs our D, we will once again dominate. They’re running back isn’t spectacular at all, their O line isn’t particularly “good” either. Let’s hope Routt is on Johnson often. Raiders should win, but it’s a short week and well ya never know.

That inside the NFL program on showtime was pretty funny and entertaining (first time watching it last night; La Quinta’s have showtime).
But they went to the Raiders game, and showed two plays (the McFadden run; Seabass FG)and that was it.
The next game was the Bengals-Browns, and they show like 7 plays, and have mics on the coaching staffs for in-game stuff.
Nothing with the Raiders. Absolutely the least amount of info on any game played this weekend.
Really chapped me.
September 15th, 2011 at 6:11 am
This is his third year, and most of the time receivers really come into their own in their third year in the league – JCamp on DHB

Isn’t this what I’ve been saying all offseason?
Jason Campbell must read this blog and no doubt he’s p1ssed off at the skeptics (JFB, JaRaiderman99, etc)
September 15th, 2011 at 6:14 am
Hagan was Oakland’s most productive receiver during its four exhibition games. Yet, Jackson felt as if the Raiders had a better chance to win with Hagan on the bench.

DANG!
is Hue Flapgums still losing sleep and whizzing down his pantleg at the thought of facing the clowns of the NFL (Buffalo Boobs) this Sunday?
September 15th, 2011 at 6:15 am
For the whole “come into their own in their 3rd year”, it is important to know, that those WR’s who emerged in their 3rd year (common examples on here were Bowe, Roddy White, and Cliff Branch) ended up having one of their best IF NOT THE best year of their career in year 3.
So this is it for DHB. We will see what his ceiling realistically is at the end of the year.
The catches and yards are coming along, as well as clutch catches.
But we need some TD’s. At least 5 this year.
September 15th, 2011 at 6:16 am
As soon as safety Matt Giordano intercepted a pass deep in Raiders territory, kicker Sebastian Janikowski had a feeling he was on the verge of attempting a long field goal.

Doesn’t sound like Seabass has much confidence in Hue’s offense!

Prediction
Raiders-26

Bills may score late touchdown to make it 26-20 but game will be in hand by then
September 15th, 2011 at 6:33 am
The Bills really utilized their TE this past weekend, especially in the red zone.
Whoever is covering that guy (LB’s/Safeties) needs to be ready.
September 15th, 2011 at 6:37 am
Inside the NFL only ever mentions the Raiders so Sapp can sh1t on them. They also all picked Buffalo to win going away. I know Rockstar will agree with them because they said Rolando McClain wont have a chance covering or catching CJ Spiller… Yeah you know the 8th overall pick of the 2010 draft whos statline for the year wasnt as impressive as McFaddens against Denver for 1 game last year.
They also conveniently forgot to mention Buffalos HORRIBLE OLine, facing our ferocious DLine. The forgot to mention Buffalos horrible Run D facing RunDMC (and I dont want to hear they improved, they gave up over 100 yards a over 6 yards per carry to a team they were beating by 2 scores and had almost completely abandoned the run)
Buffalo is a very improved team, and they hung with the very best last year (OT loss to Baltimore, late TD drop away from beating Pit) but their weaknesses play very well to our core strengths, and we just arent a good match up for Buffalo. I know we havent faired well on the road in the eastern time zone of late but those were different teams with different coaches. Say what you want about Hue, he aint gonna let this team be soft.
September 15th, 2011 at 6:39 am
Doesn’t sound like Seabass has much confidence in Hue’s offense!
*******************
Really? Did you watch the game? We got the ball back with about 40 seconds on the clock, and if not for a 15 yard penalty we would have kneeled out to the locker room. Dont be like MR twisting sh1t around to make your hate of aspects of this team seem justified.

So you would prefer Tom Pattycakes being over confident and getting us spanked?
I prefer a coach who takes our opponents seriously and puts in the work to get them team ready. Anyone who knows anything about coaching in the NFL knows HCs put in 20hrs a day in the regular season. Again dont twist his words because you dont like him dude. You are much better than that.
September 15th, 2011 at 6:44 am
Dont see a high scoring game. Better to run it out. I dont think the Bills will go pass crazy on us unless ChukyB gets creative with his calls.

September 15th, 2011 at 7:05 am
I’ve thought about it and I do think that this will be a tough game for us, it should remain close the entire game. I hope we blow them out but I just don’t see it happening.
Raiders win this one… 26-21
September 15th, 2011 at 7:07 am
The Bills are not the opponent many in here think they are, but their weaknesses play to our strengths. Weak oline versus our very tough dline, and struggles against the run versus our very strong rushing attack. Their # 1 CB is also out for the game, which should help JC and our wr core get on track for the season as well. Like I said early, I think we match up very well with the Bills.
September 15th, 2011 at 7:10 am
Raiders 34 – Bills 23
September 15th, 2011 at 7:26 am
The Bills last year had the worst, dead last defense in the league. But as much as they have improved with Marcell Dareus and Bryan Scott, they handled a team with a semi-retarted head coach in Todd Haley. They are facing an unstoppable rush offense this weekend.
Who is the anchor on the Bills O line? It’s good ole ex-Raider Eric Pears. Freddy Jackson does run hard, and I like his downhill style, but he can be contained with speed on the edges, and RoMac cleaning up the trash. I’m not worried about Spiller, as we have the speed to force the issue inside there as well.
On paper, them beating the Chefs like they did makes them look like heavyweights, when in fact they are pantywaists. The Raiders are going to establisht the run and dominate both lines on the way to an easy victory.
Not worried about Fitz, because the game is won and lost on the lines. Raiders have the advatange in spades on both OL and DL.
nuff said.
24-13 Raiders.

I am fairly certain they determine the ‘official’ lenth of FGs by adding 17 yards to the LOS. Not sure where lechler held from will matter in the record keepers eyes. I highly doubt we win this appeal.

The appeal of the 63 or 64 yard FG seems petty. Who gives a F#$%?! We’re the Raiders. Just win baby is the motto. Stats are for losers. Only stat that matters is W’s.

Sapp Jerseys… $ 9.98…
September 15th, 2011 at 8:19 am
I can’t blame Dempsey for wanting to be a Raider. Back in the day, everybody wanted to be a Raider, wouldn’t he instead of the aint’s.
Who knows if those days will return, but as real and true Raider fans, we can still be proud and hopeful. I am confident on the current young talent and they can only get better.
I still say, not to rag on like so many of the haters out there, including Dilfer et al, that the false starts got to stop, the stupid penalties got to stop, whether is a curse or the Raider way of life of lack of discipline and concentration, they have to stop committing so many penalties and playing into the referees’ game, there’s no love for the Raiders from the NFl. Major task for all the coaches.
There is also the Campbell factor, specially in the red zone, he has got to make smarter decisions with his throws. The Raiders can’t continue to live on Janiko’s leg, HueJack needs to address it with better and creative play calling, just like the Reece td. Just got to stop playing for field goals.
The defense will have to be smarter against the screens that the Bills and other teams will exploit, now that the defense is blitzing more.
However, I do believe the Bills played out of their minds against the Chefs, or maybe the Chefs aren’t that good, but the Raiders can pull a close one late with a Janiko field goal. Oak 24 Buf 21.
September 15th, 2011 at 8:20 am
Buffalo averaged a league-worst 169.6 yards allowed per game in 2010, with 18 rushing scores given up over 16 contests. Jacksonville showed us that not much has changed in Buffalo during the third exhibition game, when they ran up 32/145/2 against the Bills.
Even though the Chiefs were blown out 41-7 by this team last week, they still managed 18/108/0 rushing (a 6.0 yards per carry average) – Buffalo didn’t shut down the Chiefs’ rushing attack by any means.

RR – please tell me you’re joking. As a Raider fan you know better than to mock a coach for taking all teams seriously. How many times in years past have we seen Raider teams get up for the good teams and play down to the bad ones? Too many, my friend. Too many.
September 15th, 2011 at 8:39 am
Was just listening to the Herd, and they went through every game with Stink and Trey Wingo.
Trey said that the Raiders might have the best O-line/D-line combo in the NFL, and picked the Raiders.
Schlereth agreed, and took the Raiders as well.
Colin said it was the toughest game to pick, but he took the Bills.
September 15th, 2011 at 8:40 am
I’m mildly surprised the Raiders didn’t bring back Lito Sheppard by now, knowing that his salary is non-guaranteed from here on. It makes sense, and we can always boot white webster to the curb.
September 15th, 2011 at 8:45 am
Anyone else notice that Joe Porter was on the field in the 3rd and 4th quarter against the Donkeys, and not DVD?
I saw DVD come back for one play, assist on a tackle, looked “nicked” and came back out.
So not sure if it was a performance/rotation thing, or if DVD was “dinged” and couldn’t go.

Nathan: The extent the Chiefs struggled against the Bills. Dwayne Bowe looked nothing like the star he became last year, Jamaal Charles had a negative run rating, and the stars on defense had only slightly positive rating. The schedule was going to make it a long season, but with play like this it will be an even longer one.
What is this “negative run rating” dude is flapping about? What was JC YPR?
September 15th, 2011 at 8:52 am
Tough to gadge the Bills on the Chiefs game, because the Chiefs looked like they quit halfway through the first quarter.
I watched a decent chunk of that game, and it was amazing how lifeless the team was.
September 15th, 2011 at 8:54 am
I’m not a big fan of Miller (white Webster)…. but I have a feeling that dude would end up in new England if we cut looking more like Wes Welker than Webster…

Mr. Reporter, someone,anyone,ask Hue jackson how he justifies Nick Miller being active over Hagan. The only opportunity Nick had he blew it by letting the ball bounce to the 2 yard line. He clearly was outplayed in pre-season. Hue you suk ozz. Your team is getting out of control with flags and during the game you just stand there with hands crossed. How about you pull over Barnes and Heyer and slap them silly for committing mental mistakes…

Vegas is going to take a beating on this Bills game. Smart money is on the Raiders and take the 4 points they are giving. Watch the line move as gametime approaches. The Bills have the worst defense both pass and run in the NFL last year (32nd). Their O-line is anchored by a former Raider castoff Pears at LT. The Chiefs gave up and made the Bills look like the Patriots. The Bills aren’t for real.
Raiders going to rip them a new one.

fair enough, I was affraid the raiders argument was that it was a yard behind the bar…
Jason Elam supporters said it actually was 67yds when he kicked his 63′er, because it was 4 yds behind the bar, before et fell below it..

the most impressive thing about the kick was that it was done in rainy conditions which would negate the altitude advantage, imo. hope he makes the probowl this season.

Jack Demspsey will always be the legit record holder in my eyes.
The only two people to tie his record, did so in the thin air of Mile High, early in the season.

this smells like a cross poster.
Miller is active because he is the only guy on our roster with nfl punt return experience. hagan isnt qualified for that gig. i dont like it but it makes sense
Hue is constantly on his guys. If you have been paying attention you would see him jump on guys when they screw up as they walk off the field, that includes his qb JC.
best moment fo the pre season, barnes false starts and kills a drive. barnes walks off the field Hu jack greets him with a look that could kill, and then blasted him with ” WHAT THE FUGG ARE YOU DOING JUMPING OFF SIDES?”
Hu jack is on these guys driving them toward success. he has the hammer and has this team by the throat.
We havnt seen that over the last couple of years.

To me, Seabass’s 61 yarder in Clevaland, outdoors in the light snowfall, was much more impressive than the one this Monday.
Kicking in Denver is air-aided. Just look at the touchbacks this past game, most of them went 3-4 yards out of the back of the end zone.
You won’t Seabass drill them like that the rest of the season.

No it doesn’t. His leg in Arizona cost us a division win and playoff birth. Make no mistake about it, hence my pet name for him SeaPerch. Just for the record I was on his back way before that debacle in Arizona.

but my point is, its looks to me that Lechler makes the hold on raiders 47..

No use crying over spilled milk… that game was early in the season. . Don’t make it seem that that kick made it do or die… there were a lot of games the Raiders let slip away after the Arizona game…

Vegas, Collin never has anything good to say about the Raiders!!
Monday morning on his radio show right before the game he chose the Broncos to win. He said the Raiders don’t have a QB and that Orton is a top QB in this league.
2-3 days ago on ESPN the show he has with that one chick…(you know that one game they play with the tv monitor where they touch and scroll)the topic was
Will DMC run for 1,600 + this season?
Guess what he said?? “DMC will not…he is injury prone and won’t make it through the season!”
Then went off talking about he has skinny legs and won’t have a long career in the league!
I really don’t know what this guys problem is with the Raiders..

September 15th, 2011 at 9:39 am
dunno, but from 46 to 50, is 4yds, so 4yds + a half field thats 54 + endzone = 64… well to me it looks like its at 47yd line, so to me its still a 63′er…
********************
The LOS was Denvers 46. 46+17=63 yards.

Ray,
The Herd is a hater of anything that isn’t the Yankees, Red Sox, Patriots, Heat, Duke and SEC football.
The NFL live guys (actually football people) both heaped praise on the Raiders this morning.
Trey Wingo even said that this may be the best O-line/D-line combo in the NFL.
September 15th, 2011 at 9:42 am
BCz24,
77 yard punt.
landed at the three
ten yards behind the line at liftoff
84 in air
years ago I watched a Jet punter, McNeal I believe his name was, from his own endzone be credited with a 98 yarder. wind was howling behind him and the ball landed at the opposing 25. astroturf did the rest. that ball travelled about the same distance in the air as Lechler’s the other night but it was aided by a jetstream tailwind.
didn’t notice any great wind gusts the other night.
September 15th, 2011 at 9:42 am

If the LOS was OUR 46 as you are saying in this post it would have been a 71 yard field goal.

Stevie Cokring what is Hagans status ?
September 15th, 2011 at 9:43 am
M they said on the air it was a 77 yarder, but I guess they only count from the LOS for punts so maybe your right.
September 15th, 2011 at 9:43 am
The Herd is garbage. I am so glad that we have better local sports talk with actual ex-football players who know what they are talking about. If you live in bumfork nebraska and that’s all you get on the radio…

Time to give HU jack some credit. watching the game there were a few plays were satele dove at ankles and burrowed into the the turf looking to cut block and avoid contact. carlisle was bullied off the line and was pancaked right in the gap, causing bush to be tackled for a loss. What did hu jack do to get us going on that side, he went to the zone block on the right side. this bailed out carlisle and satele and allowed them to play their brand of finesse football.
On the left side we have pure bully ball. veldeheer and wiz formed a mauling beast like machine and like voltron, they cut right through the defense.
I am concerned that satele will get pushed around by dareus on the inside. i thnk we will have to run at the defensive ends behind veldheer and wiz. trying to run behind carlisle as he buries his head in the sand like an ostrich is a recipe for disaster this week. Also cut blocking dareus isnt enough, he is too athletic and will get back to his feet, or simply run over the blocker.
Moving forward we must get b campbell healthy, and in the mix, and address the lg center in the draft.
September 15th, 2011 at 9:50 am

Rmemeber when last year fools were in here bashing sebass, for the az game (in order to deflect blame from scabs)? They said he was a foolish draft pick to begin with.
Guess what he made history and his kick ended up being the difference in the game. Goes to show how little some of us here know.

Just read that Hagan was ready to play against the donks. Nothing wrong with his calf. So why wasn’t he on the active roster? Hue said the best players play, so why isn’t Hagan playing? Hope this doesn’t turn into a pissing contest.

Bush’s runs to seal the game, and D-Mac 47 yard run were run right behind Cooper Carlisle. On McFadden’s run, Carlisle drove his man face first in the turf, as Darren was running past him.

Let Tebow start a whole season with the team as currently constituted and we’ll see how it can get a whole lot worse for the Donks.
Now if Elways turns out to know what he’s doing and get rebuild the roster in a year or two, John Fox might be a successful coach for Tebow since his scheme is so run heavy.

The thing I remember most about Jano in that Az game was him wiping piles of sweat off his head WAY before he even had to kick that ball.
Dude was seriously trippin off something.
I knew that kick had no chance in hell of going in.
He had already missed 2 kicks earlier in the game so the coach or some damn body on that team should have known that it was 50/50 at best to put the game in his hands.
The gawd damn delay of game at the half inch line was a muthaphhhugginnn killer.
Now way around it.

That is some BS!!! He is the second best WR on this team. By next year he may be #1. You heard it here first.

We are forced to run zone on carlisle side, because he is too much of a weakling to handle the power scheme. satele is a zone blocker too, so HU jack is smart to mix in plays where these two guys can do what they do best. Dive at the defenders knees, duck and cover.
Why is this such a soar spot with you? barnes sucks too, but the bills dont have a good egde rusher he should be fine this week. Running behind carlisle and satele could be tough sledding vs dareus.

Hue Jackson called for runs, at the crucialest of times, right behind Cooper Carlisle, and it worked in spades.
Not sure why you choose to ignore this. Did you watch the McFadden run? Carlisle steamrolled his man, and there was no “diving at legs”.
He had him by the shoulders, and drove him face first to the dirt.

I used to get down at the Cannery. I lived at the Eagle Trace apts right across from Nellis AFB when I first moved to LV.
Got married, and moved up in the gaming world, lol!!

What is your point?
***********************
Not trying to speak for Bcz, but I BELIEVE his point is that Satele and Carlisle won’t be blocking Dareus much, and it will be our Tackles and TE’s more so.

Mistic,
Hue Jackson called for runs, at the crucialest of times, right behind Cooper Carlisle, and it worked in spades.
Not sure why you choose to ignore this. Did you watch the McFadden run? Carlisle steamrolled his man, and there was no “diving at legs”.
He had him by the shoulders, and drove him face first to the dirt.
FACT
========================
And your point is???
He also was pancaked in the back field in the gap, just like in pre season.
He ran behind carlisle at the end of the game on a zone play, playing to carlisle strength like a smart coach does. he bailed carlisle out by doing so because hue knows like a lot of us know carlisle gets pushed around on power runs.
Why is that hard to grasp?

Feild goals are measured from the spot of the kick. Punts LOS. I think the offense opens it up a little more this Sunday. Too many trick plays to open the game IMO last week.

I just had my bulldog pups yesterday…had a relative drive me to the animal hospital. I was sitting in the front with my kids and dog in the back while she spit one out…like something out of a movie. She was driving 85 mph swirveing all over the place…pup wasn’t breathing, so I’m hanging out the passenger tryin to revive it…luckily I was able to. We finally got there…I’m running out to the reception area all hysterical with not a word coming out of my mouth…lol! I froze..finally they new what I was tryin to get at…I called them from the freeway notifying them prior to our arrival.
So with all that being said..I won’t be able to make to a game anytime soon!
Hopefully I could head out around the end of Nov.

No it doesn’t. His leg in Arizona cost us a division win and playoff birth. Make no mistake about it, hence my pet name for him SeaPerch. Just for the record I was on his back way before that debacle in Arizona.
=============================================
Another in a very long line of mista clowns stupidest posts ever. Take away his 50+ yard attempts and Shankikowsky is in the Top Ten Percent All Time in Accuracy. Plus ask any coach or player on that team or in the league for that matter and they would all say the same thing: you don’t put it on the kicker to win it. The Raider O should have punched it in three times in that game and then it wouldn’t have even been close.
