Raiders grades vs. Jets
By Jerry McDonald - NFL Writer
Monday, September 26th, 2011 at 11:14 pm in Oakland Raiders.
Here’s a more complete version of the Raiders grades which were cut back in the print edition:
Pass offense: The Raiders played it safe, with Jason Campbell completing 18 of 27 passes for 156 yards, no touchdowns and no interceptions. Campbell threw the ball away when pressured, his only sack coming when he tripped over a teammate. Biggest completion was an improvisational 28-yard strike to Michael Bush, setting up a field goal and a 10-point lead with 2:37 remaining. Grade: C-plus
Run offense: Darren McFadden had 171 yards on 19 carries including touchdown runs of 70 and 2 yards. Remove his two biggest runs (70 and 27) and he still averaged 5.6 per carry as Raiders rushed for 234 yards on 32 carries against one of league’s best run defenses. Denarius Moore had 23-yard reverse for a touchdown and Bush a 1-yard plunge. Grade: A
Pass defense: Jets quarterback Mark Sanchez passed for 369 yards, but Tyvon Branch cut a Jets drive off in the red zone with an interception in the end zone and despite having starters Michael Huff (concussion) and Chris Johnson (hamstring) out early with injuries, the Raiders had Sanchez confused and tentative while their offense was scoring 24 straight points by employing a mix of zone defenses. Grade: B
Run defense: Shonn Greene, the Jets feature ballcarrier, was held to 59 yards on 15 carries, a 3.9 averager, and the Jets finished with an even 100 yards on 25 attempts. The Raiders had four tackles for losses and were greatly improved from the unit that was gouged for 217 yards and an 8.7 average the previous week in Buffalo . Middle linebacker Rolando McClain had 12 tackles. Grade: B
Special teams: Sebastian Janikowski had a 54-yard field goal to close out the half and a 49-yard field goal to put the Raiders up by 10 with 2:37 to play. Jets had a 53-yard punt return by Jeremy Kerley and a 50-yard kickoff return by Joe McKnight, although neither one resulted in points because of defensive stands. Shane Lechler averaged 56.5 yards on five punts, with a 39.8 net despite the big return, and one punt inside the 20. Taiwan Jones recovered an Antonio Cromartie fumble on a kickoff return to set up a touchdown. Grade: B
Coaching: Raiders pushed all the right buttons coming off of a heart-wrenching loss in Buffalo . Hue Jackson’s back-to-back trick plays (McFadden gained 27 yards on what was supposed to be pass to Campbell, Moore 23 yards on a reverse) resulted on the touchdown that put the Raiders up 31-17. Defensive coordinator Chuck Bresnahan adjusted on the fly with a depleted secondary with more zone defense than usual. Grade A

team win and by team i mean dmc
September 26th, 2011 at 11:43 pm
I’m surprised more attention isn’t being given to the Oline.They are playing as good as any line in the league and are largely responsible for our success running the ball while doing an unbelievable job of protecting our QB.The unsung heros through the 1st 3 games.
September 26th, 2011 at 11:53 pm
The Pats can’t handle DMAC.
I don’t think any defense this side of PIT and BAL can handle RUN DMC.(Maybe CHI, but all those Defenses are getting old).
If DMAC and the Oline hold up, I really think we can compete with any team.
Seymour needs to have these guys riled up for this one especially. If we can pressure Brady out of his comfort zone, we got this one.
The Oakland Raiders are the Best in the West!
September 26th, 2011 at 11:54 pm
I agree. Wiz and Veld are turning out to be great picks!
September 26th, 2011 at 11:57 pm
The Pats are like last in the league in points allowed.
I doubt we are far ahead of them, unfortunately.
September 27th, 2011 at 12:04 am
Lefty,
You are correct about the Oline. It was a beautiful day Sunday. To me, the key to the Patriots game is to play ball control. The more Brady sits and the more our defense rests, the better the chance of victory.
September 27th, 2011 at 12:06 am
BigTed,
I guarantee you Seymour will have everybody on the field and in the stands riled up come Sunday! Go Raiders!

welp…..lil Tom married a brazilian tramp, calls herself a model, walks down a ramp,
Gisele has tommie by the balls, she scolds him for misbehavior, he squalls and squalls…..
2009 was the end for lil Tom, has pass completions, but somehow he bombs…
once he’s roughed up, and gets his butt kicked too, Gisele steps in, she’s no one’s fool….
has her foot on this throat, spike up his butt, he gives her lip she’ll crack his nut….
September 27th, 2011 at 12:39 am
Seymour, obviously (Hue’s favorite word), has a personal “vendette to right” by being a force against the “Beli-cheaters” and coming out on the victorious side with a win. A few sacks and maybe even an injury to Brady during the process would be added cream to the mix.
Seymour has made it clear that the Patriots dumped him without cause and from out of the blue after years of pro-bowl production for them. He wants vengence.
He is so pissed at them that I wouldn’t be surprised if Seymour decides to be “inducted into the HOF as a Raider” if he should make it in someday. Ya, it’s safe to say we can all expect a big day from Seymour. At least the desire should be there.
September 27th, 2011 at 12:40 am
spike heel ** up his butt, he gives her lip she’ll crack his nut…
if the team wants the game they’ll break tommie’s nose, jam his face in the mud and crack his toes,
when his whore gets to screaching we’ll know we’ve won, won’t be hard, just get her done…
lil tommie gave his first born, its mommy’s last name,
he’s a coward and low-life, under that golden mane,
I say whoop him, and whoop him good, the Pats will fall just like they should…..
Just Lose Baby !!!! I out…….

wr picture is getting a little clearer if u pay attention.
first, hue has been raving about denarious. mentioning him right after dmc. he’s a lock to play. hue would look ridiculous not playing him.
ford was the guy hue raved about in preseason. we haven’t seen much of him, but it was clear in his 1 game, that hue was gonna get him the ball. he will likely be the 3rd starter, getting slot time so he gets the ball in space. his size does hurt him on the outside but s.smith, welker, and desean do well.
dhb will still get time. he’s doing so-so but with ford and moore running around, dhb might get loose for some big plays.
those are the 3 right now boys.
chaz and hagan haven’t done too much but they’re okay for some possession catches. chaz has slowed. but they are good blockers.
murphy may be on the outside looking in whenever he gets back.
miller is biding time until pryor gets here.
September 27th, 2011 at 4:36 am
Its crazy how many points are being scored in this league! Crazy! How can you score 30ppg and be 6th?? WOW!
This scoring going on this year is really an enigma.
September 27th, 2011 at 5:04 am
All the scoring is a direct result of all the “safty” rules they have put forth. I’m a firm believer – and if it’s not the biggest reason it’s right up there! And everybody and I mean everybody, is getting on the post and slant pattern to make the mismatches to get to the EZ. I see it every freakin’ game. Pretty soon they will have to come up with something to stop that.
September 27th, 2011 at 5:16 am
u hella funny cuz u went from making the asinine prediction that cartwright would rush for more yrds than dmc last year and u even said that heybey would have a better career than russell and dmc.
*****************
Hey Armond, glad your paying attention, lol!!!!
Can’t get them all right.
So when I am dissing DHB, at least YOU KNOW, that at one time there was no bigger pom-pom cheerer of DHB than myself. I wanted him drafted. After he threw the game-sealing block in his 2nd game (KC) I went on about his blocking ability.
Time for some TD’s, and I just don’t see him on the cusp of it at all.
Time will tell.
September 27th, 2011 at 5:18 am
The Raiders released rookie cornerback Sterling Moore from their practice squad and signed defensive back Ron Parker to their practice squad.
The move comes as a bit of surprise, given how well Moore played in training camp and Oakland’s four exhibition games. It wouldn’t be surprising to see Moore signed back at some point if he isn’t signed by another team first.
Parker spent time with the Seattle Seahawks earlier this season. He played safety at Newberry College and was clocked as fast as 4.28 seconds in the 40-yard dash in a pre-draft workout.
***
what the BLEEP?
now who are we going to elevate from the practice squad when Albino Smurf gets shaved off the roster this week?
ROG’s boy Manase Tonga?
Marcel Reece has an ankle injury
September 27th, 2011 at 5:20 am
Rookie cornerback Chimdi Chekwa held up well against the Jets when called upon in a pinch. For that, he credits the talented receivers the Raiders have on their roster.
“I don’t think it helped me answer anything,” Chekwa said of his breakout game. “I do think it helped me gain some experience and feel comfortable out on the field. Practice is tough here. Going against DHB, Denarius (Moore) and Chaz (Schilens), all of them. That makes the game a little bit easier.”
Chekwa said he gained more confidence by holding up well against Jets receiver Plaxico Burress. Now, he’s ready to build upon the solid performance
***
Did he seriously mention DHB ?
LOL!
September 27th, 2011 at 5:33 am
Throwing the ball to DHB is a waisted down.
September 27th, 2011 at 5:35 am
http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2011/football/nfl/09/26/jets-injuries.ap/index.html?sct=nfl_t2_a9
Don’t like to see anyone get hurt, but we bruised them up pretty good on Sunday.
September 27th, 2011 at 6:05 am
Good Morning Nation!!!
I feel ya, Rockstar…when I read that last night, I was like, huh? I thought Sterling did well…unless they plan on signing him after they shave “Albino Smurf”….but that wouldn’t make sense…
September 27th, 2011 at 6:06 am
Read Ron Borges, Boston herald Pat’s beat writer’s report card on the Pats against the Bills.
He eviscerated them (to the bone but quite objectively)in every positional analysis.
The Pats’ defense, especially the line & secondary are ravaged by the injury bug. They presented no pass rush and are 27th against the pass. Their failings on the Dline were magnified by the Bills success on the ground. . .
I don’t feel nearly as aware of the Pats defense as I did the Jets. However, let’s not go spittin’ into the wind & all. This is Belichick after all.
But, Gronkowski (who i liked immensely in college, but he was damaged goods; back surgery) & Welker are who they are; stalwarts. The law firm (Ben Jarvis Green-Ellis) rushed for a whopping 16 yards on nine carries. Oline pass blocked well but generated no push on the ground.
It’s funny how this team has morphed from one whose premise was at one time similar to the Jets (sans hype); run the ball & stop the run.
Up until this stage of the young season they’ve become the Dan Marino Miami Dolphins. . .
Doesn’t really mean much. Still have to do it on Sunday. . .
But is see a shootout a brimmin’. . .
September 27th, 2011 at 6:12 am
Antipsy
Good post as usual.
Brady could eat us alive. Guys like Wes Welker, small quick slot receivers kill us as a general rule.
The Pats spread you out and have good targets in Branch, the two TE’s, Welker and Ocho Cinco could bust loose at any time.
Let’s hope we don’t try to blitz too much. Much rather go with some kind of hybrid DE with zone blitzes, and try to hide where the pressure is coming from or just stay with the 4 man rush and hope for heat up the middle from Big Sey and TK.
September 27th, 2011 at 6:17 am
In this game Houuston and Shaughnessy are gonna be key. Pressure off the edges rattle a QB all the time…even Brady. They can see the DTs but alot of times not they dont see the DE. wimbley and Moss will be key as well
September 27th, 2011 at 6:18 am
1 TE for the pats. Hernandez is out with a sprained MCL. Hope McFadden is healthy, because I think he will have a career day against the Pats.
September 27th, 2011 at 6:19 am
Maybe it’s time to go with 3 DL and then have 3 LB’ers and 5 DB’s on the field at one time, with Wimbley as a pass rusher from, the edge on some plays and 4 DL on some looks with Moss dropping back in coverage in the flat in some cases.
September 27th, 2011 at 6:19 am
Maybe even better with T. Scott fooling them and going hybrid.
September 27th, 2011 at 6:21 am
bcz24
I thought I read that Hernandez is back…maybe I’m wrong…..I hope he’s out, as it will boost my Gronkowski touches for my fantasy team ha ha.
September 27th, 2011 at 6:21 am
Our DLine is too good to have them standing on the sidelines. They need to be generating pressure. If anything we should be in a dime all day with 4 DLs 1 LB and 6 DBs (do we even have 6 healthy DBs?)
September 27th, 2011 at 6:23 am
BCZ24 ..the Pats will gameplan for that. I hope we add a new wrinkle and go with 3 DL and use T. Scott and Wimbley as LB/DE and then of course use Shonasty (if he’s healthy) and Moss too on occasion.

++++++++++
We probably will see that this week. We used it against the jets a little with Seymour and Wimbley at the ends and Kelly at nose.
September 27th, 2011 at 6:25 am
Would be cool to OUT BELLICHEAT Bellicheat….
Everybody thinks we are vanilla man to man with 4 rushers and the occasional late and unsuccessful Safety blitz.
September 27th, 2011 at 6:28 am
I heard Hernandez is out until next week and the other Gronkowski brother got cut. Buffalo torched them from the air and ground…I hope DMAC is healthy as well. Him and Moore could have field days this Sunday, but still…it is a Bellicheck run team…I hope Chuck B and the whole D staff are looking at film on how Buffalo dispatched them in the secon half!
September 27th, 2011 at 6:28 am
WHAT’S WITH THE ROUTE AND THE HOLDING CALLS,ILLEGAL USE OF HANDS.WHATEVER ITS CALLED.SEEMS LIKE THEY COME AFTER THE DEFENSE HAS HELD ON 3RD DOWN GIVIN THEM ANOTHER SET OF DOWNS. FRUSTRATING AS HELL
September 27th, 2011 at 6:29 am
Also, watching the interviiew with Jarvis Moss…he said that after the Buffalo game where they gave up 35 points in the second half and 17 points to Denver, he said the whole D got together and said, “No More”! I hope that is true!
September 27th, 2011 at 6:30 am
I am not concerned with our Offense at all.
I am however concerned if our D goes into this game thinking that we’re going to dominate based on our one on one match-ups because we have better athletes.
We need to throw them a curveball on D.
September 27th, 2011 at 6:30 am
Let the defensive line keep doing what they are doing. Use all our d linemen and wear their o line down. Mess up Brady’s hair.
September 27th, 2011 at 6:30 am

I can’t wait for our Dline to put Brady on the ground. He cries about getting hit more than any other QB in the league. Its clear Giselle wears the pants and he wears the skirt
September 27th, 2011 at 6:32 am
Even though our D line is great, Brady will have a gameplan that takes this into consideration. If we go vanilla, somebody better knock Welker off the ball and destroy his timing off the line.
September 27th, 2011 at 6:34 am
I heard somebody say that Stan Routt should shadow Welker…..Stan is not good in the slot. He’s great on the outside where he can use his speed to recover quick after the first chuck.
September 27th, 2011 at 6:35 am
Morning guys
September 27th, 2011 at 6:36 am
Brady wilts when there is huge pressure up the middle and he can’t step up into the pocket.
The key is Sey and Kelly. If there is no heat up the middle then the guys on the outside will not get to him.
September 27th, 2011 at 6:39 am
I don’t think we should shadow Welker, but Chuck can’t allow him to get mismatches on our safeties or Lbs.
September 27th, 2011 at 6:39 am
GOOD DAY HWNDR.WILL BE THERE.FLY’N SOLO THIS WEEK.RIDING WITH ANOTHER FRIEND & WILL BE ON HEGENBERGER SIDE.HAVE MISPLACRD UR CELL#.E-MAIL IT 2 ME.WILL HIKE OVER 2 D-LOT AND C HOW COLD UR BEER IS..

Jarvis Moss needs hit Brady hard, early… 2-3 times on first drive, and the game is ours to lose..
September 27th, 2011 at 6:40 am
We will play a lot of zone this week

I don’t know if Zone is the answer unless it’s disguised, especially with a zone blitz package.
Welker DESTROYS zone coverage.
LMN we’re on a roll and you’re still fixated on negativity on Al and Jason (who is kicking ass right now and doing everything we have NOT done the past 9 years at QB).

I hear what you saying….but edge rush gonna cause him to throw it earlier and cause some INTs for the secondary. That is what you want ideally. Its cool to see some push throughthe middle but edge rushers have ability to scare qb and make him fumble
September 27th, 2011 at 6:47 am
LMN by the way, what other players do you hate on our team besides Jason? DHB and Romac was it?

B@uce…I feel you…Brady usually gets whacked from the outside on his blindside. But he still has good awareness and steps up and avoids a lot of that heat.
September 27th, 2011 at 6:49 am
Zone or Man…we gonna have to mix it up. Bresnahan better be ready cuz Brady and Co. are pissed about blowing that game in Buffalo
September 27th, 2011 at 6:51 am

September 27th, 2011 at 7:15 am
LMN you stated that Jason was not as good as Gannon, Stabler, Plunkett etc.
Look at Stabler’s stats. He threw lots of picks, and had a weak arm. He had a great running game, and he was clutch and a winner. He was a leader who came through and made huge plays. He was not a guy with a great rating, except for the SB season.
Plunkett’s stats were also pedestrian. He too was a winner. He did what he needed to do to win, once again with a GREAT running game!
Gannon had great stats but had no arm and was a system QB.
I will go out on a limb and claim that Jason has a better arm than both Stabler and Gannon.
Jason has a great running game, and needs to keep it cool and not turn the ball over and make plays when needed. He’s done it against Denver with the key first down to DHB and last week with the scramble and throw to Bush.
He’s not there yet, but he’s getting there. I actually can see he’s cool right now. Making plays, leading the team and not blowing it by taking sacks, fumbling or throwing picks.
He also lit it up in Buffalo when needed.
September 27th, 2011 at 7:18 am
I agree Baby Slash. I still believe that JC isn’t our long term, but I hope through the course of this season, he proves me wrong…but, will Pryor be? At least Pryor was a 3rd round and JC we gave up a fourth…so I say value wise, Its all good!
September 27th, 2011 at 7:19 am
by the way…Stabler is my favorite Raider of all time.
Jason is not close to him but his pure performance right now is showing that he gets it, he’s an intelligent QB and that he is responding to good coaching. After all the stupid QB’s we’ve had including Marajuanavich, Schroder, Jeff George, and Jawalrus

Soup has come a long way – and he’s made me a believer! I really think he has what it takes. I also agree it’s not all there yet, but it’s getting closer every game. He needed some good recievers he can count on and they’ve given him that this year! Coupled with the best running backs in the game, he’ll be tearing it up as the season progresses!

Jason is showing intelligence and composure. He’s getting clutch.
Big plays at the end of all 3 games to go ahead or secure and protect a lead. He’ finishing.
How many yards he throws for is not an issue for me.
I love that we pound the rock and throw only when we have to. Makes me sleep better at night.
September 27th, 2011 at 7:27 am
In addition, most of his WR’s have been “nicked” and he had a short off season.
Could be that if he gets into a groove with his boys that he will get better.
And yeah, he threw ONE bomb out of bounds and shorted one against the Jets. What about the bomb on the money to Moore with the game on the line between two dudes??
Get over it.

LMN..have you ever seen Dilfer play? The guy was not a great athlete. He had huge numbers in college at Fresno St. and was a bust in the NFL. He re-emerged and was plugged in with the Ravens and rode on the back of the D. His offense was not scoring 30 pts. a game!
I am not comparing Jason to our SB QB’s but pointing out that statically they were not that good. They were WINNERS and tough guys who got it done and were clutch.
I am saying that I see that potential in Jason this year as illustrated above with concrete examples.
Jason is showing POISE and playing within the system. It’s not because he can’t throw. The dude has a canon for an arm and can RUN too. He is a great athlete, not a stiff like Dilfer, dude. This is were YOUR comparison fails. The Ravens couldn’t score unless their D did it for them and Dilfer was a nothing.

Plunk ok!
Bedtime story on Plunkett.
Jim Plunkett was the son of two blind indians who won the Heisman at Stanford. He had all the tools and was drafted by the Patriots, who were horrible. He got crushed there and injured many times, totally shell shocked. They dumped him and he tried to stay in the NFL with the niners. He got cut and Al picked him up and paid him like a started.
Throughout his career he looked ugly, (not just because of his large head and pockmarked face)but because he did not throw like a pretty NFL QB. He came through in the clutch after Dan Pastorini was injured and led the Raiders to the super bowl after a 2-3 start (if my memory serves me right).
Plunkett was a winner….

Actually Gannon got hurt by Rob Burnett third play of game….Goose just took him out of his misery…people didnt watch the game at all. Bmore defense that day was daring Gannon to throw on them. They didnt believe his arm could get it done vs that D

From PFT
The passing yardage insanity, in one stat
Ross Tucker wrote something last week that has stuck in my head since. Which means it must be true.
“Yards passing [are] quickly becoming the most overrated stat in the NFL,” he wrote.
We couldn’t agree more. This is like the steroid era in baseball, except yards are inflated instead of home runs. We need to re-calibrate what is truly an exceptional quarterback performance.
300 yards, so long a clean benchmark for a big game, means so much less.
Despite Monday night’s defensive struggle, the NFL notes there have been 33 300-yard games this season. That’s the most through three weeks of the season ever.
The second highest total through three weeks: 21 games, in 2009. Small sample size, we know. But the record has been boosted by 50%!
Monday night’s game was actually instructive. That was a totally defensive game, with both offenses having serious and consistent problems. Tony Romo and Rex Grossman still topped 250 yards each.
The benchmarks have changed. 300 yards passing in a game just doesn’t signify much.

LMN – I was 10 yrs. old in ‘76.
Check out Stabler’s and Plunkett’s career stats.
I’m sorry you were not exposed to the Raiders because of the lack of access. But this only better supports my statements….I’ve seen it and can tell you that our QB play right now is emerging in a way that it has not been since the old days.
This is of course a new offense and I love it. I hate picks.
Look up one of our games against Denver in ‘76 or ‘77. Stabler threw 7 picks against the Orange Crush.
Stabler was great but coughed up a lot of turnovers. He had the best OL in history as well, as some tough runners, a hall of fame TE and WR and Cliff Branch, who should be in the hall of fame.
NOW THAT’s A GAME MANAGER of all time…..with nerves of steel and huge cajones…but still a type of game manager.
September 27th, 2011 at 8:12 am
Is it a coincidence that the rader DLine is back to dominance? The one common denominator is DLine Coach.

“We figure that our man, a (defensive back) should not be tackling a running back,” Hagan said. “A running back should not have to worry about the DBs tackling them because, most of the time, when a safety or a corner wants to tackle a running back, they’re trying to hit him below his kneecaps. That’s something we definitely don’t want to happen. So, we just try and stay on our man and make sure Darren doesn’t have to worry about that.”

Ok, I’m sold.
Start this guy!

Hagan was my guy from day freak-n One!!!!!!
He is Tim Brown on steroids. He should be starting!!!!!

Campbell is the next Plunkett!!!!
Al was right.
DMAC – Is the next Bo Jackson
DHB – Is the next James Jett
Hagan – Is the next Tim Brown
Chekwa – Is the next Charles Woodson (why not, I am on a roll)
Wiz II – Wiz I
Moore – Well he is in a class of his own. When he is done we will be comparing rookies to him.

LMN – I was 10 yrs. old in ‘76.
Check out Stabler’s and Plunkett’s career stats.
I’m sorry you were not exposed to the Raiders because of the lack of access. But this only better supports my statements….I’ve seen it and can tell you that our QB play right now is emerging in a way that it has not been since the old days.
This is of course a new offense and I love it. I hate picks.
Look up one of our games against Denver in ‘76 or ‘77. Stabler threw 7 picks against the Orange Crush.
Stabler was great but coughed up a lot of turnovers. He had the best OL in history as well, as some tough runners, a hall of fame TE and WR and Cliff Branch, who should be in the hall of fame.
NOW THAT’s A GAME MANAGER of all time…..with nerves of steel and huge cajones…but still a type of game manager.
_______________________________________________________
it must have been fantastic, yeah i can run from its a fact, Im a raider fan based on tapes, but I have watch nearly ALL games raiders ever played, some of the early 60’s I still need to make my Game-ography full… I know what Stabler did, and I think its nearly blasphemous to compare a guys with less than 15 wins to stabler and the rest of the Gods of old..

I am not comparing Jason to the other guys. Just saying that his development that is underway combined with his skills and Hue’s offensive scheme does not preclude him from greatness.
I’m tired of hearing people say Jason sucks and he can’t win like the old guys did. Of course both Plunk and Stabler won the SB. Not many have. Not even Dan Marino. Not Jim Kelly. Not Fran Tarkenton. Not Warren Moon.
My point is that neither Stabler nor Plunkett was as good statistically as those guys and Jason doesn’t need to have Tom Brady stats to win the SB. He has to be himself and play within our system and not screw up by playing stupid.
He’s currently doing a good job at these things.

Bart Starr was a game manager and so was Bob Greise.
Champions because they protected the ball and let their running game do it.
Note to Dakota: How many times did Greise throw for 300 yrds? How many times did he throw less than 20 passes a game? ha ha How many SB’s does he have?

BabtSlash..post 87:
Stats mean very little in separating the greats. I want JC to suceed but he lacks that winning ability under pressure. At least on a consistent basis. Even against the bills, he couldn’t convert on any third down situations. That’s bad and it’s not all on the receivers. Stabler, Plunkett and Gannon could close and win or comeback from behind and win. And calling Plunkett “pedestrian” is overlooking his best ingredient…the will and the ability to win the big one. Like two “freaking” Super Bowls!”
September 27th, 2011 at 8:43 am
GOOD MORNING RAIDER NATION
I was thinking yesterday, reading the many comments about JC and if he’s great or better or lousy. It reminded me of our many infamous discussions of Fargas and his skill set or lack there of. At times, this blog looks for an player, that needs to be loved or hated, it may be just who we all are.
Many times those Fargas comments were hair splitting with any thing to prove a point. I really miss those days,(LOL) as the Raiders were constantly losing. In fact, Jamarcus never was abused as much as Fargas.
To the guys who of aware of me, enjoy the wins, remember what it was like just a short few years ago.

If the Raiders play zone against the patsies, Brady will eat them alive. The defense has to pressure him constantly and play aggressive against the tight ends and backs.
The patsies’ defense will concentrate on stopping McFadden, so Hue will need to get creative and have Campbell dink and dunk to control the ball. I expect a huge game from Boss.

I too have made reservations for the Houston game. I will be reppin Silver and Black all the way. Im from so cal but my job transferred me here and now I live in ths wretched town called Houston. Before I moved here I lived in phx for 2 years and went to the raiders vs. cardinals game last year and watched Jano miss that field goal. Horrible first ever live game experience. It was the worst feeling ever…I thought many times whether or not to stay home this time and not jinx anything but I couldnt resist…definitely going to the Houston game no turning back now..very excited after watching the product this past weekend..

I will hold down the fort why all of you catch it on the flat screen.
================================================
I too have made reservations for the Houston game. I will be reppin Silver and Black all the way. Im from so cal but my job transferred me here and now I live in ths wretched town called Houston. Before I moved here I lived in phx for 2 years and went to the raiders vs. cardinals game last year and watched Jano miss that field goal. Horrible first ever live game experience. It was the worst feeling ever…I thought many times whether or not to stay home this time and not jinx anything but I couldnt resist…definitely going to the Houston game no turning back now..very excited after watching the product this past weekend..
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
That’s great. I know at least three of us at the game in Houston.
Will also attend the Baylor kansas state game. Love watching Michael Griffin, QB.
Im just a football junkie.

September 27th, 2011 at 9:39 am
How does our offensive line measure up against the pasties?
Veldheer and lil wiz are a force, adding boss to the mix makes it one of the best power blocking left sides in the nfl. See the 70 yard td, where the left side of our line totally demolished that entire side of the defense! These guys are monsters in the run game, and the pass protection has improved dramatically. This is where I believe our biggest advantage comes from. The other side is getting better but im not sold.
The right side of our line has been decent in pass protection but up & down in the run game. I saw carlisle get spun like a top on one play by a pass rusher, then when he finally was able to right himself and open his eyes he saw that he was blocking his own man!!!! Carlisle missed his block then engaged Dmac as dmac was leaking out of the backfield!!!! Hideous and unacceptable this simply cant happen. Barnes has been able to avoid the penalties and has to prove that he can play consistently.
I would avoid going up the middle too often as I dont see satele matching up well with big vince one on one. yet I do think the edge on the left will be open and satele can be athletic enough to seal vince by cutting him.

I cant see the patsies offensive line holding up against our defensive line. Even though they will attempt to spread us out and quick pass from the shotgun I beleieve our tackles in particular can wreak havoc. This isnt a scheme issue, our guys are just better. the patsies are in a stae of flux on the oline, and arent even sure they are going to start the rookie solder on the right side. hot shot rookie or not, our defensive ends are going to eat up whom ever they throw out there.
I give a huge edge to the raiders in the trenches.

How about Hue Jax…on the sideline, with 2+ minutes on the clock…headset OFF, facing the crowd, and arms waving wildly, whipping them into a bigger frenzy!
Al told Hue to dominate the locker room…Hue’s trying to dominate the stadium.
Just win, baby…and that stadium will rock like that all year long.

yeah a lot of people on this blog still don’t like to give Hue his props they had a thang for Tom Cable I guess. But he has energized this franchise man. I like his candid tough talk and his positive comments are getting through to the team. You can tell guys love playing for Hue.
I like to see a coach show a little emotion like the game matters than all thes a hoe coaches trying to act liek Zen Masters or a CEO of a fortune 500. It is football get excited!!!!

How about Hue Jax…on the sideline, with 2+ minutes on the clock…headset OFF, facing the crowd, and arms waving wildly, whipping them into a bigger frenzy!

Wonder if KK and MR are ready to jump on the bandwagon yet?
You know, buy tickets and merchandise, and maybe contribute to their own community’s tax base and well-being?
Probably not…but their usage of the word “WE” while talking about the Raiders will sure go up!

************************************
Its rare me and 37 get along….but these posts are spot on
MR and Kell are the biggest losers ever
Al told Hue to dominate the locker room…Hue’s trying to dominate the stadium.
Just win, baby…and that stadium will rock like that all year long.
Al Davis is ruler and mastermind behind the draft and staff…get on board or get the fk away

If Seymour shows up for 4 quarters this week you can be sure not to hear his number called the week after in Houston.
Dude is a lump!
====================================
Would someone put a cork in this imbecile? lst off didn’t Seymour have TWO SACKS in game one? And then made the game saving tackle on Sanchez in the last game?
September 27th, 2011 at 10:56 am
Man we have some eciting players on this team.
Just to think FOrd has not really got going yet.
I hope Hue does not have him running tail back with McFadden running the option or anything like that.
He is not built for that. Hue is going to get the guy killed.
Ford needs to catch some bubble screens and sideline passes.
September 27th, 2011 at 10:56 am
A number of players did it…but, it’s not a regular occurence to see the HC take off the headset and lead the cheers. Maybe a little coaxing, but not all-out cheerleading. Especially with minutes left in the game, and the contest still in doubt.
Nobody wants to play the Raiders in Oakland when the crowd is rowdy. And that’s without the idiots throwing things from the stands at the end. That’s just an embarrassment to the team, and the rest of us fans…and totally unnecessary. The crowd’s fever-pitch was all the extra boost the team needed on such a great day.

I was involved in a debate Saturday Night during the college football & late base ball schedule that night.
While watching the Universitu of Spoiled Children loose for the first time in Tempe against ASU since 1999 I was pondering, other than the fact Lance Kiffin runs the show in East LA (well, that’s whete the cloesium is), what is USC’s problem? Why don’t they play better? They surely have the talent! This is SC (I do enjoy their loosing ways. Troulbe is, the Pac-12 invariably takes grief over some of the other conferences (SEC comes to mind).
Matt Barkley; for all his physical talent what has this guy done? Under perform.
He usually has nice stats & affords a nice close-up for the girls, but he’s pretty lame (as in his coach; small wonder)as a leader.
My esteemed opponent that night contended pro football scouts look for measureables for early round projected QB’s.
Like Vinnie Testarvede, Akili Smith, Ryan Leaf, Jeff George & dare I say, Jfatboy Russell.
To this I give you three names; Bart Starr; Billy Kilmer &, in most recent times, Chad Pennington.
I just had to add this displaced post because they just showed the 6th best Superbowl Team, the very first, the 1966-67 Green Bay Packers. This does not happen without Bart Starr.
Or the history of the Green Bay Packers as we know it (Starr’s best quote; I didn’t have that good of a arm; Brett Favre can probably throw farther from his knees than I can standing up. . .).

Article from Fox Sports writer Adam Schien:
1. The monologue
Try this one on for size. A certain team has heart, toughness, a detail-oriented staff and true leaders. They practice hard and with a purpose, and it shows on game day. They don’t flinch when faced with a double-digit deficit. They have a star on offense, and they are surrounded by perfect complementary parts.
This is not a column about the Patriots.
Meet Hue Jackson and your 2011 Oakland Raiders.
Believe me. I am as shocked as you are.
The Raiders were down 17-7 to the big, bad Jets. And something pretty amazing happened. The Oakland Raiders, the inferior team on the field, smacked adversity right between the eyes. They are, technically, worse on paper when you look at the talent. Give my guy Hue Jackson a ton of credit. They pounced on the Jets’ mistakes.
Darren McFadden, the best running back in the NFL this season, embarrassed the Jets with a majestic 70-yard touchdown run. Sebastian Janikowski banged home a bomb of a field goal to tie the game before the half. In the second half, the Raiders made key plays, stopping the Jets on a 3rd and 2 and a 4th and 2 in Raiders territory. Taking over on downs, McFadden, looking to throw, scampered for a long gain. Then Denarius Moore took a reverse to the house. The Raiders pounced on Antonio Cromartie, forcing him to fumble the ensuing kickoff. And Oakland made the Jets pay when Michael Bush punched in a touchdown. The sold-out Coliseum was absolutely rocking. The Black Hole was deafening. It was wild.
Think about these plays. In the recent past, it’s the Packers or the Patriots who come up big at moments like this in every phase. Usually, other teams capitalize on mistakes. Other teams put their foot on the throat of the opposition, crushing the spirit of teams. It is a remarkable turn of events. These sequences changed the fortunes of the Raiders. And it is worth noting that while I was stunned, nobody on that sideline had any doubt that the Raiders would win the game.
Raiders quarterback Jason Campbell joined us on the SiriusXM Blitz on Monday. He called it a “must-win” if the Raiders wanted to be respected. The post-2003 Raiders used to fold up the tent down 10 in the first half. Campbell explained, “In the past, we lose. Guys go in a different direction. Not now. We are a mature football team. We put Buffalo behind us. And when we trailed early on Sunday, we stayed patient. Nobody got antsy. No tempers flared. It’s a sight to see what is transforming here.”
Read those words again. We are talking about maturity, patience and a calm demeanor when adversity strikes. I know. I’m surprised, too.
But maybe I shouldn’t be. Maybe I should re-read some of my old columns, campaigning for Jackson to get a head coaching job, because I know what a great and well-respected assistant coach he’s been for a long time. Maybe I should remember my colleague Nancy Gay’s feature on the additions to Jackson’s staff, featuring former Raiders Rod Woodson, Steve Wisniewski and Greg Biekert. And these hires aren’t “token Raiders” added to the staff. The cats can flat-out coach. The players respect them. They are former Raiders, but they aren’t yes men to Al Davis.
WEEK 3 SCOREBOARD
•Giants 29, Eagles 16
•49ers 13, Bengals 8
•Lions 26, Vikings 23 (OT)
•Saints 40, Texans 33
•Panthers 16, Jaguars 10
•Titans 17, Broncos 14
• Bills 34, Patriots 31
•Browns 17, Dolphins 16
•Raiders 34, Jets 24
•Ravens 37, Rams 7
•Chargers 20, Chiefs 17
•Seahawks 13, Cardinals 10
•Buccaneers 16, Falcons 13
•Packers 27, Bears 17
•Steelers 23, Colts 20
•Cowboys 18, Redskins 16
I told Campbell that I’ve been a critic. The Raiders lost Nnamdi Asomugha. Zach Miller fled. How could the Raiders actually be improved?
Campbell explained, “We have a great leadership program. We feel like we outwork everyone. It’s not about names. It’s about a team. Our leaders, players and coaches, are hollering during practice. Guys are not accepting ‘no’ and bad football. We expect to win.”
And Campbell was stressing to us that the Raiders haven’t even come close to reaching their potential, pointing out how Moore, a “unique” rookie, is only getting better. Campbell was thrilled to have Kevin Boss make his Raider debut on Sunday after missing the first two games with injury. Campbell can’t wait to get Louis Murphy and Jacoby Ford back in the fold. Campbell daydreamed when he said, “Wait until we can go 4- or 5-wide with those guys and Darren, who has the skills of a receiver.”
And Jackson deserves a lot of credit for making Campbell take on more of a leadership role in becoming the voice he was for an undefeated Auburn team in college before getting yo-yoed by the Skins to start his pro career. According to Campbell, Jackson pulled him aside and told him, “We can turn this team around. It’s our legacy.”
If Oakland keeps playing like this and gets to the playoffs that would be one heck of a start to their legacy. The Raiders have the Patriots this weekend. I’ll pick against them. I’ll again say the talent doesn’t match up. Conventional wisdom says they are getting the Pats at the worst time right after New England was humbled by Buffalo. Campbell said, “We want to prove that we are a team that can contend in the AFC. The Raiders are working. The Raiders are back.”

If New England needs the word “finesse” to get pumped up to play the Raiders, then they have more issues to corrrect soon.
The Pats have the one dominant QB, in the league. place any other tier two QB on that team and they’re not so good. Look to Indy as my point.

The snow job gave the Pats the impetus to become a legendary team. Never before has the NFL used such an obscure rule (or the interpretation of such a rule) to take away a team’s Playoff win. Overturning a call on the field…from a call DOWN from the booth, was never heard of or seen before then.
Now, it happens because the replay rules are different than before. But, the Raiders definitely got the snow job then. And then, the Pats kept winning and winning…and were hardly “punished” at all after being caught cheating. Kinda like how Denver won 2 SB’s while cheating their NFL partners by cooking their salary cap books.
Conspiracy on the field? Nah. Bullsh!t from above the field? Absolutely.
But, it’ll all be good again…as long as the Raiders find ways to win between the lines. No matter whose “dynasty” is the press darling du jour.
September 27th, 2011 at 11:19 am
Why can’t anyone teach DHB how to effective “chop down” in his double move pass routes; he can’t even run an out route! Unbelivable.
I know he’s a track guy, and an intermediate/deep receiver, but body control? If he didn’t have speed he couldn’t even play safety!
September 27th, 2011 at 11:19 am
i can’t wait to see the way seymour plays this week. Ford will be back and as Campbell says, wait till we start going four and five wide with DMAC. It sure will be sending shivers to any DC.. As John Madden says, one thing that drives DCs crazy is speed and for a change we’ve some guys with a lot of speed and who can play.

I know it’s been a long time but Hue must show these Raides the last five minutes of that “tuck rule” game. I have never gotten over that game.

Linebackers have a chance to be the hero this Sunday. Pats success is primarily off Brady’s accuracy and the fact they use the two TE set a majority of the time. Obviously you have to have your linebackers out there before the play because you have to respect the option they might run (even though they seldom do), and Brady picks apart the matchups where the LBs can’t cover and keep-up. If Groves and Wimbley at least perform average in coverage, I’ll be happy. Our offense should do their job though against the non-existent pass rush of the Pats, and I see us coming out on top: Raiders 37 – Pats 34
Rack ‘em….

Actually…
It’s imperative we give the Pats some bulletin board material. It’s time they go on the road to some town where the team is NOT going to just roll-over for them, even before they arrive. Show respect to their players, but not their inflated legacy.
The Pats are not a better team than the Jets…except in one place: QB. Okay, maybe one more: HC.
But, the “genius” of Belichick is named Tom Brady. Without Tom Brady, Belichick is just another NFL coach…and likely just another assistant coach, if Drew Bledsoe remained his starting QB.
What happened between Cleveland and New England that made Belichick a genius? Tom Brady.
The Pats aren’t the best team in the NFL…not by a long shot. And, the Raiders match up well against any team in the NFL right now. Is Campbell as good as Brady. No. Is Campbell good enough to win a game against Brady? Absolutely.
Brady goes down, and he goes down hard. Campbell plays smart football. The best TEAM wins this Sunday.
Buff, NYJ, Pats. No matter what happens this week…it seems like the Raiders will be seeing one (or more) of those 3 East Coast teams again in the Playoffs this year. Wouldn’t it be nice if the Raiders win the AFC West, and those Wild Card East Coasters have to come here? To get pounded at the BIG O?
I like the build-a-bully theme. Let’s see if it really happens this week…against a team MOST other teams are intimidated by. Believe me, the Pats know exactly how we put it to the Jets for the last 3 quarters Sunday. Hue Jax won’t let us be intimidated by anybody…and it’s time for the Raiders to do some intimidating of their own.

Pep – yea, Groves and Wimbley are gonna find themselves covering a lot further down the field than they want to. Boyd will probably need to play a huge game too. I say we just call their bluff and come out in base Nickel for a majority of the game. Yea, they love the two TE set, but we all know they aren’t gonna really use it as a power package and run.

I think they should show the Tom Brady “tuck” play at least 10 times on the big screens right before the game starts. That’ll get em going.

Here’s a nice scenario. Welker get’s body slammed by Romac, causing him to have to leave the game w/ a concussion.

The post-2003 Raiders used to fold up the tent down 10 in the first half. Campbell explained, “In the past, we lose. Guys go in a different direction. Not now. We are a mature football team.
Campbell explained, “We have a great leadership program. We feel like we outwork everyone. It’s not about names. It’s about a team. Our leaders, players and coaches, are hollering during practice. Guys are not accepting ‘no’ and bad football. We expect to win.”
According to Campbell, Jackson pulled him aside and told him, “We can turn this team around. It’s our legacy.”

I hate to put race into the equation but its important to me — and I’m sure a lot of people — that a black head coach/QB duo take us to the promised land.

September 27th, 2011 at 12:11 pm
If we can get these 4 players back for the NE game we have a very good chance to win.
1. Micheal Huff
2. Jacoby Ford
3. Mike Mitchell
4. Marcel Reece
We have to match up with their TE’s and keep up with their scoring. Not having Reece hurt us offensely against the Jets and it’ll hurt again if he cannot go Reece is a huge part of this offense the only guy that can do what he does is Ausberry. As for Ford nuff said!
With those guys we can match up better defensely and not double so much. It would also be good if CJ can give us a few downs so we can use DVD on Welker. But MM34 can matchup by himself on Grondkowski MM34 is that good .
Reece puts extreme pressure on defense to matchup with him LB’s simple cannot cover him they have to use a safety and it leaves the TE wideopen as you saw with Boss. When Reece went down our TE’s weren’t as open. That’s why I tell guys who complain about Reece to be more openminded the guy gives us tremendous bigplay ability.
Ford is so fast if you blink you’ll miss the play. His bigplay ability is damn near unheard of I’ve never seen a Raider who ca make plays like that kid can just in small spaces he is so quick and explosive he takes away angles. You think you have him and he outruns it. And Hues insane playcalling is geared to him when he’s in there. Those plays he used DMoore were Ford plays DMoore was outstanding but Ford is just lethal with the two of them and DHB……..there’s an italian saying that applies here………Fahgetabout it!
They’ll be gasping for air because they just haven’t seen anything like it. That why JCamp keeps saying he can’t wiat until he can get all the players healthy and go 4 and 5 wides the speed is unheard of. We’ll go no-huddle and put extreme pressure on defenses there’s nothing like it in the NFL…………..period

It’s imperative we give the Pats some bulletin board material. It’s time they go on the road to some town where the team is NOT going to just roll-over for them, even before they arrive. Show respect to their players, but not their inflated legacy.
=====================================
I guess if the raiders are going to become a bully…that’s what needs to done. Cant be a bully giving up 439 yds of offense to Mark Sanchez though…if you think Mark carved that D up (Granted most of the yardage came during prevend D mode in the end)Brady is going to have a field day against this D if they dont step it up…he must be licking his chops at the thought of going up against McClain

September 27th, 2011 at 12:15 pm
Again, another game where it will be critical to make solid tackles all day. Our DB’s will have to continually shed blocks and make tackles, otherwise we’ll be seeing that 70 yard LT play all day long. NE loves to use those little inside screens where you get 2 WR’s and a pulling OLineman out setting blocks as soon as the receiver gets the ball. I hate that cheap shat but it is very effective, especially if you can break a tackle or 2.
Look for that play early and often. The WR will come inside and then break to the sideline where the other WR’s are already engaged.
Just sayin…

New England hasn’t been mounting much of a pass rush. Might have to get exotic this week.
Not necessairly “bombs away” this week (Patsies 27th against the pass) so the gameplan will probably br reminiscent of the Buffalo game.

Lefty12 I’s a given Brady will move the ballbut what we need as you say is for him to use a lot time up and kick FG’s. I don’t think they can stop us offenseively. But we can’t waste time scoring we have to score in bunch’s to beat them because they wont quit it’s going to be a track meet for sure.
September 27th, 2011 at 12:31 pm
I don’t see us shutting down the N.E. offense, but I do think we can slow them down and outscore them. I expect there will be parts of the game where our defense will be dominate, but not the whole game. Raiders 42 Patsies 40

This is going to sound crazy but our ability to bat a few balls down may be the difference. It’s not so much sacking Brady but make him uncomfortable. make him move his feet and throw moving don’t let him set his feet because when he does he is deadly accurate. If we can bat a few balls in the air and get picks even better. Make Brady MOVE and throw.
September 27th, 2011 at 12:41 pm
Priest, you seem like a real knowledgable guy when it comes to football. I have heard a lot of talk about some recievers are better in the slot and some better outside. What is the difference in the skills needed?
September 27th, 2011 at 12:41 pm
I’ll say it: The Pats don’t break 30-points this week.
The Pat’s running game gets managed, even if not “controlled”…Brady goes down hard numerous times…the Raiders D disguises their zones and zone-blitzes, but plays more press than even the Pats think they will…Stan Routt continues his great season…DMC and Bush continue to baffle, and Taiwan Jones gets some serious yardage from different roles…Denarius Moore continues to amaze (and takes a lot of attention from others, making DHB a viable target)…JCampbell starts to look for his TE, and Boss shows he’s a great replacement for ZMiller…the O-Line continues its surprising(?) solid play…the D-Line, led by Seymour, puts the hammer down, and the young guys make their mark…McClain surprises his nay-sayers, and occupies a lot of Brady’s midfield airspace…the Defense will cause at least 2 turnovers…Hue Jax will be a cheerleader…
The NYJ game was a start…but this is the game where the Raiders make a respectable name for themselves, and it really can be the launch pad for a great season.
Beat the Pats, and the Raiders players will really believe in themselves…not like we’ve seen in 8-years.

September 27th, 2011 at 12:49 pm
Kool Aid, receivers have different responsibilities and in a lot of system get mixed around, but generally speaking your slot receiver has shorter routes designed to pick up 1st downs and you wideouts are taller and faster and can track a ball in the air, make sideline catches, comebacks, deep outs, etc.
September 27th, 2011 at 12:50 pm

the Patriots have the #1 ranked total offense (#1 in passing) at 540 yards per game and 104 points
we will not beat them in a shoot out!
September 27th, 2011 at 12:56 pm
Koolaid IMO a slot reciever has to be smart first he has to be able to read zone or man very well. Then he has to have some quickness because in most cases he’s going to be changing directions on a dime. That’s why most are small quick guys. But in the past I have seen big guys play the slot because of the LB element they are always in the middle of the field. But the new slot guys are like Welker small and and quick and can dart in and out and it makes it harder for LB’s to get a hand on them. That’s what has given rise to this fast break offense we’re seeing is these small quick slot rec’s. It kind of started with Welker. Before a slot rec’r had size to take hits. I hope that helps if someone else can add to that……..go for it!
September 27th, 2011 at 12:57 pm
Learning to win is not just for the team, although they have to believe first, it’s for fans to. We have been so bad for so long that it’s going to take some time before some fans get on board. Come on Raiders! Let’s prepare for this game, and REMEMBER THE TUCK RULE!

September 27th, 2011 at 12:59 pm
The Pats are used to other teams being less-prepared, and less intense.
Not happening in Oakland.
Welcome to the Big O.
The Raiders Defense will keep the Pat’s Offense under 30-points. We must keep their Special Teams in check…no 40+ yard returns.
Except for Brady, there isn’t another position on the field that the Raiders are out-matched. If we don’t give them the ball by turnover, the Raiders will win the matchup battle most of the day.
Will the Raiders score 30+ points? I sure hope so. Will the Pats? I don’t think so.
The Defense comes of age this week.

It’s not so much a shootout as how many times we score. We don’t have to sling it all around like they do. We have to SCORE tho. We can that with the run as well as the pass. It’s OK to take acouple of drives and pound them as long as we get 6 instead of 3. That’s the key to score and get TD’s and we can beat them.

Neil Hayes of the Chicago Sun-Times writes that Jay Cutler’s career is being “held hostage” by G.M. Jerry Angelo. The team’s lack of talent at receiver and offensive line are Hayes’ biggest complaints.
“Angelo has hoped Cutler could elevate mediocre offensive talent while he tries to reload a defense undermined by years of poor drafts,” Hayes writes. Later on: ”Cutler isn’t failing the Bears. The Bears are failing Cutler.”
ESPN’s Michael Wilbon also targeted Angelo, saying his performance this year “stinks.” The free agent crop has been a bust and Angelo’s promises about the improved offensive line ring hollow.

Our most attractive WR likely to be traded??
Louis Murphy. He’s proven he can play at this level…the WR catching the most passes on two (mostly) under-performing teams. He’s young, and not too beat-up…his groin injury will heal completely, if he stays off the Viagra. He’s got good hands, a natural football instinct, and he knows how to get open. And…the Raiders WR corps is good to go, with or without him activated.
I like Murph a bunch. I like keeping players like him on the team. But, here’s an example of how the Raiders can improve by losing a good player. Maybe not immediately, but in the long run.
Murph is trade-able…and he’d appreciate going somewhere where he’ll see more opportunities than he will here.

If anything we should be in a dime all day with 4 DLs 1 LB and 6 DBs (do we even have 6 healthy DBs?)
***
BCZ,
If Huff & CJ37 are both out, Tom Brady would be facing Routt, Branch, Giordano, Chekwa, DVD & Porter
perhaps the occasional Jerome Boyd if somebody gets “nicked” or needs a breather
you cool with pulling Groves & Wimbley off the field in exchange for DVD & Porter ???
… you know Hue & Chuck ain’t putting McCrohns on the bench, no matter how much he deserves it!

Comment From metarzan17metarzan17: ]
Steve, how do you explain the offensive line playing so much better now that Cable (who is an offensive lineman guy) is gone? Counterintuitive, no?
Tuesday September 27, 2011 12:36 metarzan17
12:36 Steve Corkran: I was told by several Raiders employees the past few years that Cable actually is not that good of a line coach. I guess he got saddled with the reputation of being a good line coach because the Falcons led the league in rushing that one year.
September 27th, 2011 at 1:15 pm
Hey Steve it couldn’t possibly be true what Greg Papa said right? It has to come form Al Davis everything people say has to be what Al’s thinking. No one has a mind of their own…………..what a joke!
September 27th, 2011 at 1:15 pm
I just did a search for 2 tix, best available and only club house seats are left…maybe because they are trying to seat 2 together…
September 27th, 2011 at 1:16 pm
HD37,
Murphy is making peanuts as a 4th rounder in his 3rd NFL season. How much trade value does he have?
don’t sell me some crap and say 3rd or 4th rounder either …
dump Nick Miller if you want to add another (much needed) DB. Otherwise leave the roster alone!
September 27th, 2011 at 1:17 pm
Two guys from my work are going to San Fran for some business trip, they are getting in early Sunday morning. They asked me if they could each borrow a Raider shirt because they wanted to go see the game. I loaned them to em, they are planning on getting tickets from a scalper Sunday morning.
Anyone think this will be hard for them? Will they get tickets?
September 27th, 2011 at 1:18 pm

Priest,just for fun last night I was fooling around and went to see if any tickets were available.Entered request for 2 tickets at any location and it said sorry,your request can’t be filled,so I believe they are all gone.
September 27th, 2011 at 1:19 pm
The way to beat brady or any other QB is contant pressure.
If you want to see it in action go back and look at the detroit preseason game…
SUH without nick fairley is a load, however the pressure was generated… they were hitting him, and guess what he started miss firing…
We knock Brady on his a$$,he will bend…

12:29 Steve Corkran: I have seen every home game the past 17 years, so I have a fair idea of how loud the Coliseum can get. The Jets game was decent but far from as loud as it can get. This Sunday should be way louder, especially if the Raiders are winning or at least in the game.
+++++++++++
All i know is i lost my voice… i would imagine the next game may be louder however, it was loud sunday…
September 27th, 2011 at 1:22 pm
WOW already! Well come to think of it when I was talking to my ticket guy before preseason he said there weren’t many tickets for these two games so it may have been sold out earlier.
September 27th, 2011 at 1:22 pm
NMiller isn’t worth a 5th-7th rounder in trade…he might not get picked up if he were released.
A proven (if not spectacular) WR like Murphy, making “peanuts” is exactly what other GM’s would be interested in in trade.
No…I don’t think he’s worth a 3rd-round pick…but I KNOW he’s worth something between the 5th-7th, especially to a team that’s missing WR depth, that thinks they’re close to being a Playoff team this year.
Chicago Bears are DESPERATE for WR help…and if they’re smart (ha), they’ll go get one or two.

HD37,
Souldn’t the Raiders keep as many “proven (if not spectacular)” players on the roster as possible?
Especially since Chaz is made of glass and Miller is gonna get axed in the next 10 days?
And we’re only gonna get a 5th-7th in return? we’re not that desperate for picks imo

Thec,
I hope Brady gets sacked eight times and stays completely healthy so the Pats wont have any excuse for losing. They just got outplayed. we wanted it more. we were the more physical team.
Then we get to see Tom’s presser about how they’re going into panic mode after back2back loses to the Bills & Raiders!
September 27th, 2011 at 1:32 pm
Game Day Weather??
Last week the forecast was for a high of 72 degrees, and mostly sunny, with a 10% chance of rain.
Then, it stayed overcast all day, and rained lightly a couple times.
Plan for a cool, but not cold, day…and bring a plastic rain poncho just in case (they sell-out ponchos early). It’s always easier to peel-off a layer if one’s too warm, than it is to stay dry when not prepared for rain.
Welcome to the Big O.
September 27th, 2011 at 1:33 pm
RESPECTABILITY – That’s something that has been missing for this team since 2002. If this team wants to regain their respectability from the rest of the league, the order of the day will be to control, dominate and be victorious against the Pats this upcoming Sunday.
Back to back wins over perceived superior teams will cause the league to take serious notice of the 2011 Oakland Raiders. This winning aberration will force all the so-called “experts” to re-look at the West Coast Bad Boys through different color glasses. Could it be that Al Davis has resurrected the old Pride & Poise gang from the ashes of earlier years? You bet your a$$ it does.
Yes, something new lives in Oakland right now: Competent coaching, legitimate football talent, unbelievable speed, an excellent mix of veteran-young athletes, a winning focus with action that matches the talk.
The Raiders of past were known for their ability to wreak havoc on their opponents. The new Raiders have many of the old Raider characteristics but most important, they are just winning baby! The Boys are Back and they are waiting for you to come on down & see what it’s all about.
September 27th, 2011 at 1:36 pm
I hope Greg Biekert & Chuck B still have a bitter taste in their mouth from the “TUCK GAME” and send the dogs after Tom Bunchen – sort of like Waufle did in the Super Bowl with NYG

I wonder if Steve knew we would beat the jets?
I wonder what Steve’s prognosis was for the season?
I wonder what Steve thought about Hue jackson when Mr D hired ahim and what he thinks now?
I wonder if Steve had the same opinion Jerry Mac had when a fan asked him if mr D had a chance of rebiulding the Raiders without Lane Kiffin and Jerry said “he didn’t think Mr D had much of a chance”………….LOL That’s how much these scribes think of Mr D that he NEEDS LANE KIFFIN……
September 27th, 2011 at 1:45 pm
RRS — I actually believe Murphy’s worth a 4th-round pick to the right team in need.
And, you are 100% correct about the Tuck Rule snow job: The coaches who played during that game have a bitter taste all the years later…and they need to make sure the young guys taste it, too.
They (and Richard Seymour) need to make sure the young guys know…do not leave the game in the hands of the officials. Take the game into our own hands, and don’t give up control.
September 27th, 2011 at 1:46 pm
Good point. Waufle has the blueprint for taking down the Pats…

Post #354; that’s a metaphor for ‘is there a need to convert anyone else?’
Gallery Obviously (I emphasize obviously in my daily life. some know what I’m talking about. . .)wanted out; he wanted Logan Mankins money. Even if Paul Allen gave it to him it’s to appease his car collecting tastes while he (again) convalesses.
Azch Miller is another story. He deserved a big payday; al didn’t agree; when management issued another “the check’s in the mail” announcement Cable checked his sundial & swooped in for the kill.
But, money ain’t everything.
Ya’ know Cable still had a following in the aftermath of his departure. Loyalties cut deep. Somebody gives you a chance when nobody else would. . .that kinda thing.
So; nobody is programmed enough to totally mindlessly dwell on the past; today’s dysfunctional entitlement nature reinforces that; bet some people joke about such things. Nah; I’m not worried over any remorse for the previous coaching regime; I think everybody’s on board. More fun to play physically imposing football than finesse ball. The roster is built to be a bully; not a Patsie (this blog doesn’t go out, does it? LOL).

TJ, you spread BS to us in here just Like Arman Shields’ Dad did to you. Blind adoration, not analysis.
You have no trace of objectivity or humility. Plus you respond as if disagreeing with YOU is rejecting Al Davis. Laughable.
And please never ever again claim to be the guy who invented the Black Hole. Outsiders could read that. Don’t humiliate the Nation.

The Raiders moving did expand the fan base a little, but it was nowhere near worth the move.
The Raiders used to be the hands down favorite team in all of Northern Cali. There wasn’t none of this Raider/ Fairy Niner divided fan base crap!
When the Raiders moved back, one would expect that everyone would unite under the Silver & Black but that didn’t happen.The Raiders leaving and the success that the 9ers had created a whole generation that grew up with the 9ers being the ONLY team in the Bay, even right here in Oakland! There are people that haven’t forgiven Al Davis for leaving to this day!
The Raiders moving was the worst thing that could have ever happened. It split the fan base in half.
And yet we still are unstoppable! Imagine That! That’s how powerful the Raider Nation is!
September 27th, 2011 at 3:20 pm
Im eager to see how chuk b uses missle mike. this guy instantly improves the run defense and is way underatted in the pass game. Boyd and gio can go to the bench where they belong.
last year when marshall lined up mm 34 and romac on the line they were very difficult to stop, couldnt tell who was coming and who was dropping. he made romac better.
Woodson has had a profound impact on the secondary im sure he will have mm34 coached up well. if it doesnt show this week while he is getting up to speed, it will clearly show at the end of the year. Dont be surprised if he is a starter next season.

As time goes on and they stay here that’ll all fade.
But Magic is just a Raider fan coming to games, he’s been coming for years. All Oakland needs to do is support the team (buy tickets and help them get a suitable home) and that’ll solve all problems.

7th rndr?? just doesn’t sound right. He can’t be that bad, can he?
September 27th, 2011 at 3:42 pm
Hard to sell keeping Giordano on the roster if MM34 is healthy and back.
Giordano
N.Miller
B.Davis
R.Brown
Most likely to be cut if roster moves are made, i’d say.

So its your assesment that youre a better talent evaluator than Rex Ryan? Why dont you apply for a scouting position somewher?

Dallas is accusing the Redskins of cheating by calling out cadences similar to the QB’s. Imagine that. I know the Raiders would never do that, of course.
September 27th, 2011 at 4:20 pm
Len of course he doesn’t, I never see big Al anymore and he used to be omnipresent. But my point is they said HE could NOT do it without one. Mr Davis has all kinds of sounding boards they’re called SCOUTS he trust them and always has. Jon Kingdon a good friend of mine who Vella said found Veldheer is trusted as are many scouts McGlouhan just retired trusted as are others. he has NEVER done it all. He uses the people he trust. He’s the GM when he wants to stop he’ll hire a guy…………simple as that.

1. never ever…ever ever have McCain lined up on Welker The Pats are going to want to expose the lack of speed on the interior and Bresh has to find a solution.
2. Bump/ Jam the Wr. even though we got alot of Holding and PI’s in the last game, the bump coverage disrupted the jets Offense.
3. Only send a max of 5 at Brady…he’s still brady
4. Tackle…Cant stress how important this is…the Pats wr’s get alot of YAC.

I didn’t feel Namdi was the same after his injury when he came back last year. I think the problem signing him was not salary, but length of contract. Bet the local reporters are thankful not to have to spell his name any more.

Brien, if the Raiders lose next week, and they will, they won’t sell out their home opener. Ouch.

Ok Weasel. So we lost at Buffalo and still sold out the Home Opener. Ouch.
Yet you haven’t even admitted you were wrong about this before you start running your little tranny mouth again.

If the Raiders run the ball less than 30 times:
Jets 31, Raiders 17

Our Lb’s are a perfect match up for those TE’s, Everyone but Maclain he does not do well in pass coverage and teams know that. I hope huff comes back becuase he could be a difference maker with those tightends.

Why hasn’t Miller been cut and a cb added?!

The loudest the coliseum has ever been IMO was the first sellout we had in 3 years when we played Denver in 2000….yep we lost but when Randy Jordan blocked that punt to tie it at 24 the coliseum was the loudest I ever heard it!…..then last year vs chiefs the ground shook when Ford caught that strike from JASON CAMPBELL was 2nd loudest I ever heard it
September 27th, 2011 at 6:07 pm
Hue didn’t build anything. Hue has done a great job so far with the attitude and performance of this team, but no one with any objectivity should say that he built anything here. Al built this team through the draft and through free agency. He also hired the vast majority of the coaches.
I know it’s been said a million times in here by some of the more astute posters, but you can’t say the man has absolute control (and absolute responsibility) when things are bad and then turn around and say he isn’t responsible when things go well.
The Raiders are a young team on the rise. Al seems to have found a coach he can work with, and also seems to have learned from some of the mistakes he’s made in the past. I know it’s impossible for some in here to give the man any credit whatsoever and that won’t change no matter what the team does, but I just hope that the more rational amopng us can see that Al’s fingerprints are all over this team, and that he deserves credit for what seems to be going on.
September 27th, 2011 at 6:08 pm
Plus I think DVD and even CJ may play.
September 27th, 2011 at 6:08 pm
Sully is a die hard Raider fan. But he feels cheated. Al Davis has not met his expectations. And Sully is entitled to have everything he wants. His mother told him so.
September 27th, 2011 at 6:09 pm
SS isn’t exactly what i had in mind. SS’s dont usually hold up well defending wr’s in man coverage.
September 27th, 2011 at 6:11 pm
And dont tell me schit about that bogus AFC title game in 02…..most undeserving cra I ever seen including you Fairy rice loving twits. I knew we would lose to SB judging byy all the 80 jerseys in the crowd…..and im glad SB37 happened like it did due to all u traitors
September 27th, 2011 at 6:12 pm
And the fact that DVD and CJ might play doesn’t really change my point. If they do play, they’ll be dealing with injuries. Furthermore, during the Bills game, everyone said the secondary was gassed. Nick miller is taking a spot and adding no value. I dont think any one can dipute that, or that this team could use some additional cb depth.
September 27th, 2011 at 6:14 pm
Wr Ford. .. SS mitchell.. huff.. Eugene. .. CB c Johnson… . When this defense and offense gets healthy… were going to be to beat… were already there on offense..
September 27th, 2011 at 6:16 pm
Yea… coaching waiting on Murphy and Pryor… that will mean Millers exit for sure… if not sooner..

Len I agree could he have picked a better coach at this time based on what we see so far? The media is falling in love with Hue. If he wins he’ll be worth his weight in gold.
——————
Hue is a breath of fresh air. He puts it out there and expects to win.
It’s not hollow rhetoric either.
We can all see so far, what’s happening.
———————————
Hue’s candidness is refreshing…as is his creative Offensive mind. He keeps any Defense guessing what his next move will be. All D-coordinators out there know the ball can go anywhere, at any time. Way better than the days we could guess the play before the ball was snapped.
What Hue needs NOT do, is become too much of a character — or a caricature — of himself. For instance, Rob Ryan’s schtick is only going to stay fresh and/or effective when they win ball games. Once it wears thin, the players start to chafe.
What’s keeping Jon Gruden from coaching? Certainly not his lack of football knowledge. It’s that personality of his, that’s only good in certain spots, and for so long. Football knowledge doesn’t always translate into GREAT head-coaching ability.
Whatever Hue’s doing, it’s working. Here’s hoping it lasts more than 3-4 years.
September 27th, 2011 at 6:18 pm

September 27th, 2011 at 6:21 pm
ET I 2nd that emotion…..There are those that would give credit to someone anyone other him but the truth is the truth. Big Al biult this Bully Hue Jackson is putting it to work.
You know it brings up an interesting point as last year most of the time I gave a lot of credit to Cable’s motivation and he deserved it. But I had no idea just how much enfluence Hue had until latter parts of the season when we really started to wax some teams. Starting with that Denver massacre. I started to notice the offense potential and an attitude change.
Someone brought up that Papa said Hue in effect was the HC last year. I wonder when rumors of a blowup in the ranks started seaping out if that indeed was the case. Because Mr Davis’ presser after was very peculiar. One media person asked him if Cable made the playoffs would he have been retained and Mr D said NO. That shocked me!! Then thinking what Papa said today could very well have been the case…
The time between Cable’s firing and Hue’s hiring may have been just assembling his staff. Mr D will do that sometimes to see how many coaches are willing to work with his new coach before officially naming him.
Just thinking outloud!
September 27th, 2011 at 6:27 pm
Priest,
I think Cable was the right guy at the right time, because he did help change the attitude and the players played harder for him than they did for anyone in the recent past.
Personal stuff aside, I think that Al felt that Cable had taken the team as far as he was capable of taking them, and that someone with a bit more football acumen was needed to get them to the next level.
We’ll see how it shakes out, but for now the team seems to be developing the way Hue has outlined it publicly.
September 27th, 2011 at 6:31 pm
replay Now
September 27th, 2011 at 6:32 pm
Cable was garbage. They playing for him stuff is all crap. He even had a crappy OL. This team didn’t start balling until Hue came in and took over the O.
Hue looks like he’s got a very bright future ahead of him. Before its all said and done I bet the press will be going wild over his ability as a HC same as they do Bellichek, Peyton, Tuna, Ryan, et al.
September 27th, 2011 at 6:35 pm
Hue came in and started challenging the O & the D. Cable was a bystander watching greatness (while yearning to take credit)
September 27th, 2011 at 6:36 pm
ET I couldn’t agree more Cable was needed to keep some sanity after the Kiffin debacle. He did help us a lot just from a continuity standpoint and I do appreciate him for that. But you could see his abilities were limited because the team was way too inconsistent from week to week we would kill a great team and lose to a weak one. I think Cable could’ve been good enough to even win the division but you would never see the bravado and sheer explosiveness this team displays now.
Hue just brings a swagger we haven’t seen in many years. This offensive potential is staggering. I don’t think Cable could’ve ever done this.
September 27th, 2011 at 6:36 pm
MR’s not missing…he’s lurking, undercover.
Funny thing, though…his prediction before the season started was 2-14, or 4-12.
Now, it’s 7-9, or 8-8.
Soon to change upward with a win.
Just another bandwagoner, trying to disguise it by being so negative in attitude. Rather than admitting he was wrong about one of the best young teams in the NFL. How funny.
September 27th, 2011 at 6:36 pm
Dammit just got to hut….missed first drive still! im pissed!
September 27th, 2011 at 6:37 pm
Terp,
I hear you about Cable’s capability as a head coach, but even the teams that played us remarked on how much harder the Raiders played when Cable was the head coach than in years past. They may not have played a whole lot BETTER, and I think that’s because Cable was out of his depth as a coach, but the effort level was undeniably greater and I think that it was Fat Tom that got it out of them.
September 27th, 2011 at 6:38 pm
T’pin that is a real possibility because even now I was listening to 95.7 and they were raving about Hue I haven’t heard anything like it since Gruden. I mean the talkshow host actually professed love for Hue and that guy is a Niners fan I think.

http://www.nfl.com/news/story/09000d5d8229f5de/article/bill-could-expedite-construction-of-downtown-la-stadium?module=HP11_headline_stack
The nice thing about a new stadium being built in L.A. (or anywhere) is that it will put construction workers to work and those suppliers who outfit stadiums will have sales and work.
But good luck finding a team to play in that sespool of a town. If the Raiders go back to L.A., I will dis own them. But I know they won’t.
The Chargers or the Niners could get sucked into that dump, and it would be good for them.
L.A. has two football teams that sell out quite a bit, and the Rose Bowl is always there. L.A. gets the share of football.
September 27th, 2011 at 6:43 pm
Players may have liked Cable and played for him because of it but thats as far as it goes. Hue came in and took the team to another level, given full reign, while Cable was the figure head.
September 27th, 2011 at 6:44 pm
Even Darrel Johnston the FB that used to block for Emmitt said Hue jackson is the reason he is buying into the Raiders. I mean the guy has ONLY coached THREEE games and he’s getting acclaim Tom cable didn’t get in 3 years.
We’re too close but nationally Hue is getting a lot of Dap……IMO way too soon but I guess they see it. I love what I see but I just want to win a few more games before I CROWN HIM…..LOL
September 27th, 2011 at 6:47 pm
And how about Steve’s ridiculous prognostications? Basically saying he is a better judge of player utilization than Ryan (one of, if not the best defensive coach in football) because he matched Revis on DHB. And Pryor is nothing more than a WR or TE. LOL. Thats what I’m saying man. Then they’ll write things to that bias and you all just follow his lead as if its FACT!
September 27th, 2011 at 6:48 pm

Steve is not a fan of DHB either. I picked that up some time ago. But he’s a huge Hagan fan. For about 3 posts in a row last week were filled w/ Hagan comments. And you fools just ride with it. Buying this Hagan mumbo. Don’t get me wrong, he’s good but not THAT GOOD.
September 27th, 2011 at 6:51 pm
I mean this offensive potential is damn scary if I’m belichik I’m sitting there going “crap how are we going to stop this”?
We haven’t even got started yet because we’re not healthy but if we ever get healthy this offense could set records because Hue is crazy with his playcalling. he’ll call anything anywhere and the players will get used to it and start expecting it and you’ll see one explosion after another. Just big chunk plays one after another.
September 27th, 2011 at 6:52 pm
That was an awesome chuck by Routt. Knocked Buress back to hard they thought he committed a penalty lol.

I couldn’t believe it when he said I PROJECT him as a WR or TE since when does he get paid for scouting? His opinion OK, his projection give me a BREAK!! exactly what was it based on technically speaking?
Just write your stories and give an opinion leave the coaching and scouting to the experts.
September 27th, 2011 at 6:58 pm
Steve even started buying his own crap and tried to pin Hue down with a Hagan question 2weeks ago: why he isn’t starting given his preseason production? (crap). Hue put him in his place. It was just ridiculous. Hue basically told him Hagan was not the best WR on the team.
Now he’s telling what Ryan should be doing and projecting Pryor as incapable of being a QB …after seeing how many Pryor practices Steve??? Com’on man. Stick to writing facts. I’m OK with opinions here and there, but your writing is way skewed sometimes.
September 27th, 2011 at 6:59 pm

September 27th, 2011 at 7:10 pm
Routt has changed 180 degrees from the track guy that Jerry used to laugh at. They coached him up and now he’s an elite corner, something I gaurantee Jerry would’ve said would NEVER happen.
I say this all the time players who work hard get better throughout their careers. Just because a players is one thing today has no baring on what he will be in 2 years or 4 years or 6 years. Hard workers continue to get better.
Just look at DMC his hard work has paid off tremendously. When he came in he was a special talent but not well rounded now there’s nothing he can’t do. he’s 15 lbs. heavier he has moves galore and power like you wouldn’t believe. He’s easily twice as good as he was as a rookie. As a rookie he was a straight ahead runner with not much power on contact eventhough he did have a great stiffarm but he’s a much better player now.
I see the same eventuallity with DHB due to his work ethic.
September 27th, 2011 at 7:11 pm
From the Boston Globe Ron Borges:
When your quarterback throws four interceptions and your three leading tacklers are cornerbacks, you don’t have to read much further to know how the story ends.
New Englanders wondered what would happen if one day Tom Brady [stats] wasn’t letter perfect. Now they know — somebody’s 0 had to go and it was theirs. The Patriots [team stats] are No. 1 in offense and tied for second in points scored, but for the moment, the defense can’t stop a runny nose, and Sunday Brady couldn’t stop throwing to the wrong color jerseys. That’s a recipe for what happened in Buffalo.
You don’t often win games with four turnovers and you don’t often have great seasons if your defense is last in the league in total yards and passing yards allowed and 27th in points surrendered. Something better change because Brady can’t be Superman every Sunday.
QUARTERBACK
D
This was a tale of two Tom Bradys, and one turned out to be a horror story. When you pass for 387 yards and four touchdowns and provide your team with a 21-0 lead in 24 minutes, it’s hard to turn that into a probationary grade, but four picks (including one returned for a touchdown) will do that because two of them were directly on Brady. The one that bounced off Danny Woodhead’s hands into the arms of diving Bryan Scott was a rare inaccurate throw. Hey, it happens. Worse was George Wilson’s interception of what should have been a touchdown. Rob Gronkowski ran a seam route and got a step on Wilson, but the coverage was tight enough that Brady needed to put some air on the ball to get it over the defender. Instead he threw it on a line, and Wilson was able to pick it off. Brady credited him with a good play, but the flatness of his throw made it easier than it should have been. Still, it’s a measure of who Brady is that even on a bad day, he tied the game with 3:25 to play. That would have gotten most quarterbacks at least a C, but he’s not most quarterbacks.
RUNNING BACKS
C
Subpar production from BenJarvus Green-Ellis (nine carries, 16 yards) and Danny Woodhead. Rookie Stevan Ridley showed a little something in limited duty, but what in the world was Julian Edelman doing in the backfield? He can’t pick up the blitz and he can’t rush the ball. That move seemed to take thinking a bit too far. The Pats rushed for 108 yards (4.2 per carry), but when they needed yards, they got stuffed.
WIDE RECEIVERS
C
This grade should have been much higher considering Wes Welker tied a club record with 16 receptions and broke another with 217 receiving yards while scoring twice. That included a nifty catch and run on fourth down to tie the score at 31 on one of several bad matchups against Buffalo linebackers, which is a ridiculous defensive idea. But all his efforts were negated by the disappearance of Deion Branch, who did not have a catch despite seldom seeing double coverage, and the appearance of Chad Ochocinco. Ochocinco had two catches but wiped out their effect with two bonehead plays. One was dropping a sure touchdown on one of the rare times this season he’s gotten behind the defense. That cost a valuable four minutes and 30 seconds, which is how much longer it finally took to score on what became a 15-play drive that tied the game at 31. They could have used that time later. A poorly run route, on which Ochocinco rounded off his cut instead of making a sharp one and working back to the ball, allowed corner Leodis McKelvin to get inside him and pick off the pass to set up a Buffalo TD. Little things add up, but that was the more damning play. Dropped balls happen, but a lackadaisical route from a guy who prides himself on route-running is an indictment of failed focus.
TIGHT END
A
Aaron Hernandez was in street clothes with a sprained MCL, but that didn’t change things much. He’s a receiver masquerading as a tight end, and his absence went unnoticed because Rob Gronkowski was immense, literally and figuratively. He’s become a favorite red-zone target for Tom Brady because he’s big, sure-handed, unexpectedly fast and physical. He was all four Sunday, scoring twice and on his way to a third when George Wilson intercepted what should have been an easy TD. He kept running by linebackers and safeties and out-muscling them when the coverage was tight. He didn’t have a great blocking day but still was a load at times. Until Hernandez returns, Gronkowski will be the reincarnation of Army’s “Lonesome End.’’
September 27th, 2011 at 7:12 pm

If Hayezdaze the die hard Raider fan is criticizing Hue’s personality now, wait till later in the year. If this team jumps on a 4 game win streak, Hue is going to be right out in front of it with his personality, and the media’s going to eat it right up. The Davis-bots are already complaining about him. Thus far, he’s only done an interview in a pin striped suit and said the team’s playing to his expectations. Oh boy. Watch out. It’s going to get interesting.

I can’t believe Raider fans can find anything bad to say about Hue Jackson right now. Leave it to RaiderLen and HayesDaze to do just that. They think he talks too much. Unbelievable. Right now, it should just be “hooray for Hue”. You really have to wonder what’s going through the mind right now of a fan who could criticize Hue for anything. And people think I’m not a fan…
September 27th, 2011 at 7:17 pm
Boston Globe, Ron Borges Cont’d.
Offensive Line
B
They gave Tom Brady [stats] plenty of time to throw much of the day but got little push when trying to run. Shawne Merriman badly beat Matt Light [stats] on an inside rush, pressuring Brady into one incompletion, and Nate Solder was flagged for hands to the face, negating a 35-yard Rob Gronkowski catch. Logan Mankins [stats] was whistled for holding and a false start on a day when the Pats lost 93 yards in penalties. Rushing on second-and-goal from the 1, the entire line was knocked back as Merriman penetrated so deep he took out fullback Dane Fletcher, leaving BenJarvus Green-Ellis with no lead blocker and nowhere to run. On the next play, Mankins’ false start backed them up to the 6. Even though they soon scored, it was wasted time when they needed all the time they could get.
DEFENSIVE LINE
D
Can’t pressure the quarterback plus can’t stop the run equals no-show. Fred Jackson averaged 6.2 yards per carry on 12 rushes, and Ryan Fitzpatrick was touched only twice and never sacked on a day he threw 40 times. Can’t blame this one on Albert Haynesworth since he was home on the sofa … or maybe you can. With Mike Wright and Myron Pryor out with injuries, the line already was depleted before King Albert got an ouchy and took the weekend off. That left Landon Cohen and Kyle Love in the middle of a failed goal-line stand. Cohen was double-teamed and obliterated, and fullback Corey McIntyre blew up Love on a wham block that gashed the middle on Jackson’s 1-yard run to tie the score at 24. Love was nailed with a hands-to-the-face penalty with the Bills pinned at their 5, letting them out to the 20 on what became a three-play, 95-yard scoring drive lowlighted by 46 yards in penalties. One particularly sad moment was the sight of Jackson driving defensive end Shaun Ellis 4 yards beyond the line of scrimmage on a pass rush. Love did beat a double-team to stuff one run, and Andre Carter stopped a reverse with will and quickness after first losing the edge. With three of the normal rotation out with injuries, it meant Vince Wilfork [stats], Ellis and Carter had to play more, and they wore out. These guys need reinforcements. They also need to make some plays.
LINEBACKERS
D
Can’t cover plus can’t stop the run equals no-show. Brandon Spikes got an earful from Vince Wilfork after one of the many times he was out of position. He appeared to blow coverage on David Nelson’s 26-yard catch and run in the flat when he didn’t get to the receiver and then leapt up with the ball in the air for no reason unless someone gave him a hot foot. Lord knows who was supposed to cover tight end Scott Chandler on a 3-yard TD. He was so open everyone had plausible deniability. Early in the game, Jerod Mayo was sent on a run blitz and missed Fred Jackson in the backfield, leading to a 11-yard rush. On the game-tying drive, he blitzed but got stoned by Jackson in pass protection, his head snapping back like he got hit by Floyd Mayweather. On the winning drive, the Pats sent him again, and Bills quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick read it perfectly, throwing into his vacated zone to Jackson for a 38-yard gain to the 1. Dane Fletcher was run over on one play, but he has a broken thumb as an excuse. Not much to say about Jermaine Cunningham but this: Did he play?
DEFENSIVE BACKS
F
Can’t cover plus can’t jam receivers at the line plus can’t stop committing penalties equals — you guessed it — no-show. Devin McCourty’s troubles deepened. He missed the jam several times, allowing free releases that got him beat deep. He bit on an inside fake by Steve Johnson and lost him on a fade route for a touchdown and was toasted by Donald Jones off the line on a 29-yard completion that kick-started the Bills’ winning drive. Leigh Bodden was no better. He bit on every double move he saw and in one case committed a double felony when he allowed a 48-yard reception after being scorched off the line and was flagged for illegal contact. He didn’t seem close enough to Jones to be in contact with him. Patrick Chung looked better not playing than he did before his thumb injury because replacements Josh Barrett and Sergio Brown had a long day. Neither tackled well, Barrett missing two critical stops. The last came on Fred Jackson’s 38-yard catch and run when Barrett overran the play because he was utterly out of control. Sadly, Brown’s best tackle was on Jones in the end zone. Problem was the ball was still in the air. That interference negated a Barrett interception. Kyle Arrington was the bright spot in the slot, intercepting two passes and covering well. The Pats should retire No. 31. Ever since Brown began wearing it, he’s played like Brandon Meriweather.
SPECIAL TEAMS
B
Punter Zoltan Mesko had a sore knee, but his net average was a booming 40 yards with a long of 57 that had tremendous hang time. Maybe he should hit himself in the knee with a hammer before every game? Stephen Gostkowski’s kickoffs were deep (five touchbacks in six kicks) and he nailed his only field goal try. Coverage, though limited, was sound, but Julian Edelman’s decision to run back a kickoff that should have been a touchback pinned the Pats at their 14, causing special teams coach Scott O’Brien to blow a gasket.
COACHING
D
When you score 31 points, the offensive game plan was sound even though Tom Brady [stats]’s four interceptions made it look otherwise. Defensively the Pats had no answers. They put little pressure on Ryan Fitzpatrick, and the few times they tried to blitz he hurt them because they never got close to him. Confusion seems to reign with Brandon Spikes, so why’s he out there? And their man-cover schemes were lacerated for a third straight week without significant adjustments. Worse, Bill Belichick blew his cool on the game’s final drive, wasting a timeout. Taking his cue from the sideline chaos, two plays later Vince Wilfork [stats] was called for a stupid unsportsmanlike conduct penalty that gave Buffalo a new set of downs and allowed the Bills to run the clock down before the winning field goal. Maybe Belichick should stay out of the movie-making business?
HEAD OF THE CLASS
Wes Welker
Club-record 217 yards on 16 catches suggests maybe somebody should cover this guy. Maybe they can’t.
Kyle Arrington
His two interceptions were the one bright spot in a dim secondary picture.
Rob Gronkowski
Big target turning into a red-zone favorite with two more TDs Sunday.
BACK OF THE PACK
Tom Brady
Four picks negates four TD passes, especially when two were clearly the result of bad throws.
Devin McCourty
Eleven tackles never is a good sign for a corner. Man-to-man coverage might not be his thing.
Sergio Brown
Interference call in end zone was a brutal and costly mistake.

Talking is part of Hue’s style. Why didn’t Al Davis understand this before hiring him? Again, Al Davis hires a head coach as he is, then wants him to change. Makes no sense whatsoever. As I said earlier today, Hue Jackson is going to make a fine coach in this league, and will probably when a Super Bowl, ELSEWHERE.

What Hue needs NOT do, is become too much of a character — or a caricature — of himself. For instance, Rob Ryan’s schtick is only going to stay fresh and/or effective when they win ball games. Once it wears thin, the players start to chafe.
What’s keeping Jon Gruden from coaching? Certainly not his lack of football knowledge. It’s that personality of his, that’s only good in certain spots, and for so long. Football knowledge doesn’t always translate into GREAT head-coaching ability.
September 27th, 2011 at 7:40 pm
Why would Hayes even bother warning Hue of becoming “too much of a character”, if Hayes didn’t already see some sort of personality trait in here that would indicate he could be too much of a character? And what other trait could that be? All Hue’s done thus far is talked about how well the team is playing. So what could it be? What could Hue have said or done to this point to prompt Hayes to warn that he needs to avoid becoming too much of a character?

New York Daily News Joe Armstrong
OAKLAND – LaDainian Tomlinson leaked out of the backfield, slipped past the Raiders’ linebacker tracking him in man-to-man coverage and caught a well-placed pass thrown by quarterback Mark Sanchez in stride. Tomlinson took the ball 18 yards into the end zone, springing into an elite trinity with Hall of Fame inductees Emmitt Smith and Jerry Rice as the only players in league history to score 160 touchdowns.
“I didn’t even know about that,” Tomlinson said late Sunday. “It’s bittersweet, but something I won’t even think about.”
Tomlinson, 32, quickly turned his attention to solving the Jets’ offensive issues. In returning to the home of his old division rivals from his Charger days, Tomlinson electrified his unit early, concurrently silencing the silver and black sellout crowd that shouted obscenities and questioned his ability to make a difference. Tomlinson – who has more rushing touchdowns against the Raiders (22) and rushing yards (2,055) than against any other opponent – felt at home, even when others seemed to get lost in the game’s violent swings.
“I got what I expected from the fans here,” Tomlinson said. “They weren’t happy to see me but I was happy to see them.”
Now a third-down tailback, he rushed for 38 yards on six carries, complementing starter Shonn Greene’s 59 yards – his best output this season thus far. The 100 yards total on the ground was the most put up by the Jets in three games, but still not enough as the team dropped to 2-1 with two more road games upcoming.
“It’s unfortunate we wasted his great effort today,” Rex Ryan said of Tomlinson.
Tomlinson continued sharp route running as a receiver, too. When the Raiders unleashed an all-out blitz in the first quarter, Sanchez recognized Tomlinson available to his left for a screen pass.
Tomlinson took the ball for a 79-yard catch and run, positioning himself behind his linemen, reading the openings as they developed and receiving an additional block downfield by wideout Santonio Holmes. He ran until he was pushed out at the 1-yard line. It set up the Jets’ first touchdown, a keeper by Sanchez two plays later.
“We thought the second half was going to be our half, but they stepped it up,” Tomlinson said. “Their front four is as good as it’s ever been.”
He knew not to linger in his celebration after the touchdown. In 2002, Charger teammates piled on him following a scoring scamper, and Raider rowdies showered them with beer bottles and hot dogs from The Black Hole. This time he simply rolled the ball off his fingerprints and retreated. Reflecting, he said, would come later.
“Returning always triggers memories,” he said.

From the New York Daily News Manish Mehta
OAKLAND – The culprits were all over the field, missing tackles and getting juked by speedy playmakers from start to finish. A week after the Jets’ suffocating defensive performance against the Jaguars grabbed headlines, the backbone of Rex Ryan’s team was carved up in a 34-24 loss to the Raiders Sunday. Gang Green’s defensive implosion was historic.
The Jets gave up the most rushing yards (234) in 41 games under Ryan, getting gouged for one big play after another en route to their first loss of the season.
“I’ve never had that happen in my life,” said Ryan, whose team faces consecutive road tests in Baltimore and Foxborough in the next two weeks. “But it just happened.”
BOX SCORE: RAIDERS 34, JETS 24
The Giants were the last team to embarrass Ryan’s defense when they racked up 207 rushing yards in 2008 against the then-Ravens defensive coordinator. Ryan hadn’t suffered such an indignity in the NFL since he was a Cardinals’ defensive line/linebackers coach in 1995 when the Redskins rushed for 259 yards against his team, according to ESPN Stats & Information.
“When you’re not in the right place, anybody can beat you,” outside linebacker Calvin Pace said. “We lost to a team that was not as good as us, inferior to us. . . . Whatever you can say bad about a defense, that’s what we were.
“Some bad things are going to be said to us from Rex to (defensive coordinator) Mike Pettine. But we deserve that.”
PHOTOS: IMAGES OF JETS-RAIDERS IN OAKLAND
The Raiders (2-1), who had 383 yards of total offense, kept it relatively simple: Darren McFadden left, right and up the middle. The Oakland running back exploded for 171 yards – the most by any player against the Jets under Ryan – on 19 carries (nine yards per).
“You have a plan that if they get on the edge, they’re going to present problems for you,” safety Jim Leonhard said. “And we allowed them to do it all day. You can’t give them exactly what they need to beat you and expect to win. It’s extremely frustrating knowing that you have to stop certain aspects of their game in order to win . . . and series after series, you don’t do it.”
Although Mark Sanchez (27-43, 369 yards, 2 TD, 1 INT), who helped the Jets rack up 439 yards of offense, maintained that “we all had a hand in this” loss, Ryan owned up to errors on the other side of the ball.
The Raiders jumped all over Ryan’s defense with a five-play, 76-yard opening drive capped by the first of McFadden’s two touchdowns.
“We didn’t come ready to play,” Leonhard said. “We got a lot of issues we need to clean up. Right now, we’re one for three as a defense. We played one great game and two very poor games. So we got a lot of issues we got to correct. . . . We have very high standards for ourselves and we came up short two of the three games.”

LaDainian Tomlinson played a central role in the Jet’s first two touchdown drives in the first half. Gang Green took a 17-7 lead with five minutes to go in the half before McFadden ripped off a 70-yard touchdown scamper and Sebastian Janikowski drilled a 54-yard field goal to tie the game at 17 by halftime.
A couple of injuries to the Raiders’ secondary prompted them to alter their defensive scheme by playing more zone than their typical man-to-man, in-your-face coverages. Sanchez wore a protective visor starting in a third quarter that featured him getting sacked four times. He had some discoloration under his right eye after the game and may have suffered a broken nose.
The Jets made a pair of costly second-half errors. The Raiders scored 14 points during a critical 42-second stretch late in the third quarter and into the fourth to seize control. The Jets’ first calculated gamble of the game proved costly. Ryan chose to go for it on fourth-and-2 from the Oakland 37 late in the third, but Sanchez’s pass for Plaxico Burress on a quick slant was thrown slightly behind him and bounced off for an incompletion that set the stage for Oakland to take the lead for good.
The Raiders took advantage with a couple of trick plays on the ensuing drive. McFadden ran for 27 yards after Jason Campbell was covered on a halfback option. Rookie wide receiver Denarius Moore’s 23-yard score on a reverse on the next play gave the Raiders a 24-17 lead with 40 seconds left in the third. Antonio Cromartie fumbled the ensuing kickoff after attempting to field the ball just off the ground near the goal line. He muffed it, kicked it forward and unsuccessfully tried to scoop it up. Taiwan Jones recovered it to give Oakland the ball at the Jets’ 12. (The team announced that Cromartie had been taken to Eden Medical Center for further testing on his ribs before returning home, but the Daily News first reported late Sunday night that the Jets’ cornerback had suffered bruised lungs. His timetable for recovery is all about pain tolerance at this point, a source said.)
The Raiders turned the turnover into Michael Bush’s 1-yard touchdown on the first play of the fourth quarter to push the Raiders’ lead to 31-17. Sanchez’s 17-yard touchdown to Burress drew the Jets to within 31-24 with 5:33 left, but they couldn’t get closer.
Ultimately, the defense didn’t deliver.
“We like to pride ourselves on (stopping the run),” nose tackle Sione Pouha said. “It was humiliating for that to happen to us.”

He’s above-average vs other teams, and out-of-this-world great vs the Raiders. Kinda reminds me of ol’ Marty in K.C.

I understand it was a cautionary tale. But what would prompt it? As you’ve said, Hue’s done nothing to indicate he would have an overblown personality.
But Hayes warns him against it anyway, even though he’s shown no signs of having one. That’s odd. Then you immediately sign on to his comment, with “truth”. Even though…Hue has shown NO SIGN whatsoever of having an overblown personality, or becoming too much of a character. Really odd that both of you would be so cautious of it, while you say you haven’t seen one sign of it.

How’s this for a stat? According to ESPN Stats & Information, Oakland running back Darren McFadden is blowing by defenders. Just 91 of his 392 yards, which leads the NFL, have come after contact. He is averaging amazing 5.0 yards a carry before being touched. That’s amazing and, of course, it leads the league.
There is still a huge AFC West presence at the top of ESPN.com’s rookie watch.
A new Los Angles stadium took another step closer to becoming reality Tuesday. The Raiders (they appear to be the favorite) and the Chargers have been mentioned among the team that could end up in Los Angeles.

What Hue needs NOT do, is become too much of a character — or a caricature — of himself. For instance, Rob Ryan’s schtick is only going to stay fresh and/or effective when they win ball games. Once it wears thin, the players start to chafe.
What’s keeping Jon Gruden from coaching? Certainly not his lack of football knowledge. It’s that personality of his, that’s only good in certain spots, and for so long. Football knowledge doesn’t always translate into GREAT head-coaching ability.

After watching the replay of the game what stands out to me immediately is two things:

2)#28 Joe Porter is absolutely HORRIBLE at tackling. He needs to be replaced ASAP!
Other than that we look pretty good, and as we continue to get healthy like I said earlier, WATCH OUT NFL!

[..] another brash move by the NFL [..] to create dissention amongst the Raider faithful [..] but really know it is good business [..] keeping Oakland in the headlines as the Raiders make a push [..] not unlike the 1985 Chicago Bears [..] some inside Goodells camp feel threatened or mis-aligned by the current surge of Raider success [..]
‘This team under Head Coach Hue Jackson is poised to do some stuff of which the likes have not been seen since dynasties were around. Pittsburgh, San Francisco, and even Al Davis’ Raiders of the 60’s thru the 80’s’ a source from NFL.com told [NEWS] but asked we keep his name private for fear of exposure and losing his job.
She also added that ‘while the league and L.A. businessmen and rotary people will make it seem like they want the Raiders to push the Stadium deal, they will deny them when the time comes to make a move, after they secure the deal to build the stadium. They really want the Chargers or the g-g-g-gay-assed niners. They can have them.’

Why would Hayes even bother warning Hue of becoming “too much of a character”, if Hayes didn’t already see some sort of personality trait in here that would indicate he could be too much of a character? And what other trait could that be? All Hue’s done thus far is talked about how well the team is playing. So what could it be? What could Hue have said or done to this point to prompt Hayes to warn that he needs to avoid becoming too much of a character?

who cares? a couple guys have an opinion. and u try to crate a raider-controversy where none exists. ur grasping at straws. ur run here is ending.

u remind me of those girls who go on and on about how they hate some bad-boy rebel, and then when he pays a little attention to them, they go down on him like a hooker.

When the AFL merged with the NFL The Raiders, as part of the deal, had to pay The 49ers three million dollars for territorial rights to be able to share their territory. When The Raiders moved to LA, they had to pay the league 30 million dollars for territorial rights. The Raiders never relinquished those rights, and any team other than The Raiders moving into that territory will have to pay The Raiders for those rights, now valued at upwords of $300,000,000, or face a lawsuit. Some people have said that it is a done deal that The Chargers are to be the team to move to LA, but I don’t think that will happen unless the league is sure that they are on safe leagal footing.
I hear that they would actually like to move two teams into there to share the stadium like The Jets and The Giants. You would think that if that is the case they would want to have a team from each conference, but I am not sure who would be a good NFC candidate, except maybe Minnisota, but I kind of doubt it.
I can’t help but wonder why Al Davis would not want to move there into a new stadium and increase his revenues in one of the truely big markets in the U.S. Al Davis lives for The Raiders, and even throgh the mistakes he has made over the last eight years, no one wants The Raiders to compete and win more than Al Davis. The money streams coming from a new stadium in a big market would help him to compete for the best free agents.

and he doesn’t even talk about all his charity. he allowed a homely, down-on-her-luck backwards young woman, w/ a 10-yr old retarded child named sullivan, to blow him in his office while the child waited outside, just so she could say a great man knew who she was. unfortunately, the retard opened the door, going into yet another place where he wasn’t wanted, and saw it. the child has never been able to forget it and has stayed 10-years-old ever since. true story.

I think the easiest thing for the league to do is move The Raiders to LA, unless their lawyers tell them that there is no way The Raiders could win the ensueing lawsuit. Even then, The Raiders might be able to get an injuction and keep things tied up for years before anyone else could move there. The league, if there plan is to move someone other than The Raiders to LA will have to figure how to deal with this.

[..] while Davis avoids the spotlight, he is getting accolades and tons of credit for putting this amazing team [..] “team is flat-out scary” said one source at ESPN [..] even the useless NFL.com has the Raiders as a ‘buy’ team while power rankings have…[..]
“I can’t wait to see what this team can do when they start clicking on all cylinders” said former Raider and one time Buc W.Sapp. “You think they are filthy now, you just wait”.
J.Brown, Calif. Gov. had this to say: “Al and I go way back, and tho we have not always seen eye to eye, you cannot deny him his masterful knowledge he has of the game. It it fatastically wonderful. There is no denying him of that. And with the City of Oakland being very dear to my heart, I am glad to see this great thing happening for the fans of Oakland. I am truly excited to go to a game”.

September 27th, 2011 at 9:39 pm
REPOST
RESPECTABILITY – That’s something that has been missing for this team since 2002. If this team wants to regain their respectability from the rest of the league, the order of the day will be to control, dominate and be victorious against the Pats this upcoming Sunday.
Back to back wins over perceived superior teams will cause the league to take serious notice of the 2011 Oakland Raiders. This winning aberration will force all the so-called “experts” to re-look at the West Coast Bad Boys through different color glasses. Could it be that Al Davis has resurrected the old Pride & Poise gang from the ashes of earlier years? You bet your a$$ it does.
Yes, something new lives in Oakland right now: Competent coaching, legitimate football talent, unbelievable speed, an excellent mix of veteran-young athletes, a winning focus with action that matches the talk.
The Raiders of past were known for their ability to wreak havoc on their opponents. The new Raiders have many of the old Raider characteristics but most important, they are just winning baby! The Boys are Back and they are waiting for you to come on down & see what it’s all about.

September 27th, 2011 at 9:58 pm
I watch a lot of games around the league and can say with confidence that the Raiders are most certainly for real. I don’t think I’ve seen a team that looks as fast and as physically dominant as Oakland this year.
We aren’t going to carve teams up with an Aaron Rodgers/Brees/Manning/Brady style passing attack. But we are capable of bludgeoning teams and getting big plays with our speed.
The one thing we do need is better tackling in the open field and limiting big plays on defense. It’s been the same story for several years now and I can’t quite explain it. We can demolish a team on one series and then give up an 80 yard TD run on the second play of the next series. We can have a team totally under control and then give up a 70 yard completion and a few big runs that keeep them around. If we eradicate those big plays, we’ll have a real shot at excellence this season.

Couldn’t have said it better. The good news is that we are only going to get better as time passes this year. Hopefully, we are peaking just as the playoffs begin. I do believe the Raiders were the first team that won the SB while coming from the wild card position.
Our first goal is next Sunday. Then, each succeeding week until we lock up the AFC-WEST title. After that is pure gravy and if we’ve put it together, who knows how far this team can go?

al loved gruden– just thought he was overvalued and he was right. gruden fizzled in tb and no one has wanted to bring him in since. much better as a tv personality for the money.
al brought in callahan as the logical replacement. ditched him when he ran out of ideas. the guy has done nothing since.
al loved art shell, b/c he was a great raider and he had been successful in the 90’s. gave him a shot. regretted it and had the balls to make a change.
al liked norv’s offensive mind. gave him a shot, and saw he was weak-willed. the chargers are seeing this now for years. great OC. poor head coach. did u see how rivers yells at him? no respect for norv. he’s weak and they know it.
al was swayed by lane the liar. he thought the kid had something. he soon saw lane was a liar and always looking for excuses for his losses. a spoiled rich kid w/ no ethics. al respescted his dad so that played into it.
cable seemed like a guy who might command some respect, and he did. but he was out of his comfort level and in over his head. no real vision. and al began to see his character flaws.
al loves hue. saw him as a progressive and aggressive football mind. he has done everyhting right so far and al has to be loving it.

Oh, yes. The Davis minions are already putting the word on the streets that Hue had better shut his trap and play Al’s second banana, or he’s going the way of Gruden. Hope Al doesn’t trade him to KC.

In a perfect world: Raiders winning and Trolls gone. Rabble-rousers BE GONE – POOF!
September 27th, 2011 at 10:14 pm
JB,
I’m starting to think that anything less than the AFC West division title is a disappointment. I also think that we should get better and better. Boss made his presence felt in his return this past week. Ford is supposed to be back this week and is still our biggest home run threat. And I think Murphy will be a great compliment opposite Moore in the receiving rotation once he’s healthy.
I’m also excited to see Mike Mitchell’s return. Hoping that takes place this week. Guy played really well last year and I think he’s poised to break out when he gets healthy again.
September 27th, 2011 at 10:17 pm
Seems that many of the people here stay living in their own soap drama.
Mr. Davis went through many ordeals and criticism to get to Hue, i.e. getting rid of Cable. I am positive there is nothing but praise going both ways, even if the Raiders would not make the playoffs, the team is going forward. I see no reason for Mr. Davis not to like what HueJac has brought to the team. People got to stop making up and playing fantasy games.
However, listening to what Broadway Mink had to say about NFL players is all true. NFL players and athletes in general should not get caught up in the ink and hype coming from the coaches, press, and or fans in blogs and talk shows. Very easy to get complacent, got to keep the hunger for rings alive, and not focus on how good they say you are,better to focus on how good you can bring it consistently.
This team is young and jelling together, great things can only happen, HueJac and the Raiders got to keep that in mind and spirit. I know it has been a long time (seems longer) that the Raiders were competing for reals, the fans and the Nation need to stay positive, even through bad games and losses.

Chris in NY
Right now our semi injured offense is already a significant threat to all NFL teams. We can pass and beat you or we can just beat you up on the ground. That’s a nice place to be and we are getting better week by week as the players buy into HuJack’s vision. Add to that getting more play-makers back from the injury list and it’s all GOOD.
Once our D gets their act together, we will really be a threat to go all the way. I’m not sure the D will get there this year. We need real help & growth at LB. Our DB’s need to grow within the system, especially our rookies. But, by next year this unit with one or 2 adds should be lights out.
My goal this year is the playoffs and one victory in post game play. That, would be a significant improvement over last year and a real sign that Hue’s got it going where it needs to be. This team is showing signs of getting real good. Only time and victories will tell.

Here’s my guesstimate for this week!
NE 35 OAK 41
Hell, I’ve been guessing scores in the low 20s and I’ve been way off, so with these two offenses heading into this week, I won’t be surprise if the combine score reaches 100!
GO RAIDERS!!!

2009 was the end for lil Tom, has pass completions, but somehow he bombs…
once he’s roughed up, and gets his butt kicked too, Gisele steps in, she’s no one’s fool….
has her foot on this throat,spike heel up his butt, he gives her lip she’ll crack his nut…
if the team wants the game they’ll break tommie’s nose, jam his face in the mud and crack his toes,
when his whore gets to screaching we’ll know we’ve won, won’t be hard, just get her done…
lil tommie gave his first born, its mommy’s last name,

“What’s keeping Jon Gruden from coaching? Certainly not his lack of football knowledge. It’s that personality of his, that’s only good in certain spots, and for so long. Football knowledge doesn’t always translate into GREAT head-coaching ability”.
That statement must make you blow your stack,eh MR?

I just don’t understand why Davis would hire Hue if he doesn’t like his talkative style. Why not just hire a quiet coach? Why hire a talkative coach, then start telling him he needs to be more quiet, more like Belichick, etc?
September 27th, 2011 at 10:47 pm
I sure am digging this 20011 vintage ADavis kool-aid.
How long until Snap starts claiming “my Raiders” on NFL network? The inventor of the paycheck mentality that has taken years to purge from this team. The thought of the guy still infuriates me.
At least Albert said fug it to Shanny & Snidey and got out since he felt he was being played out of position. I respect him more for fingering Shanny and bailing from DC, gawd I hate Shanny worse than Snap now that I think of it.
Hue knows whats up, he is playing Raider ball.
I think AD lets him run with it.

It may be nothing but it stood out & looked a little weird.

He did this? I have pix of him doing the same thing last year at the Bronco game. Except it was pre game and the LB’s were getting together for a breakdown and he stood to the side.

With Al Davis’s track record with coaches, in order for someone to believe that Al let’s a coach “run with it”, they’d have to have their head so far up their ass they can see what they had for lunch.
September 27th, 2011 at 10:57 pm
I mean, if the theory holds that Al Davis is an egotistical fame hore.
You must have herd the news that Hue Jackson is putting together a squad of footballs to play the game as he sees it played.
You surely must have an estimated time of termination for this ‘Mouthy” HC.

September 27th, 2011 at 11:07 pm
Hue is saying the right things in that he is constantly praising Al and the way they both talk about whats best for the Raiders.
The only things that would worry me, are that Hue talks too much about how this is “his football team” and “building it in his image” and if calling AL “coach” too many times will get old and start sounding more like a pun than a praise.
Other than that, I think Hue has sounded more like another of Al’s yes men than anything else.
Who knows with Al, I think as long as Hue keeps winning none of this will matter. As long as he doesn’t have hookers in his hotel rooms, or publicly slam Al, I think he might be ok.
And if he does get canned, you know that the next man up is already with the team. The other AL.
September 27th, 2011 at 11:10 pm
What is it that is so hard to understand about Al and his coaches?
If they tried to screw him over, he just steps on them like they were cockroaches.
After all the years, I’d say since Tom Flores,
He’s finally found the coach that can bring this team back to the days of glory.
It’s sort of like trying a pair of shoes,
you just keep trying them on and throwing them out till you find the pair of shoes you like best, news.
So he has banged some coaches around, BFD
Al can chew the up and spit them out for real.
Whats past is past and bygones are bygones, cause we got ourselves a dang good team now and we are headed for the play-offs.
That right playoffs I said, and if for some reason we dont make it, you know Al will be seeing red.
But I know we are going to make it sooner than later,
and all will be forgiven except for the haters.

Cables death knell was the off field extra baggage, just as much as his inability to progress much after 2 years. I wouldn’t of kept him.
If Hue starts blabbering to the media and starts to remind me of Rex Ryan and his style of false bravado, hen I have a problem. I am also extremely confident AD will think this same way as well. That’s why I adore him so.

Yes he did & true enough. I haven’t figured him out yet. Still not sure his future is at MLB. If we can draft a real “Mike Type” MLB next year move RoMac to WLB.

MADDEN, John. Good charismatic coach. Still a Raider. And creator of “Turducken”
Point is, as long as you win, and do it your way but making it look like Al’s way, you should be fine.
I think Hue can and is doing that.
For the good of the team, I hope he stays. Though it is still a bit early, it sure seems like he will be a good if not great coach for the team.

If we can get these 4 players back for the NE game we have a very good chance to win.
1. Micheal Huff
2. Jacoby Ford
3. Mike Mitchell
4. Marcel Reece
We have to match up with their TE’s and keep up with their scoring. Not having Reece hurt us offensely against the Jets and it’ll hurt again if he cannot go Reece is a huge part of this offense the only guy that can do what he does is Ausberry. As for Ford nuff said!
With those guys we can match up better defensely and not double so much. It would also be good if CJ can give us a few downs so we can use DVD on Welker. But MM34 can matchup by himself on Grondkowski MM34 is that good .
Reece puts extreme pressure on defense to matchup with him LB’s simple cannot cover him they have to use a safety and it leaves the TE wideopen as you saw with Boss. When Reece went down our TE’s weren’t as open. That’s why I tell guys who complain about Reece to be more openminded the guy gives us tremendous bigplay ability.
Ford is so fast if you blink you’ll miss the play. His bigplay ability is damn near unheard of I’ve never seen a Raider who ca make plays like that kid can just in small spaces he is so quick and explosive he takes away angles. You think you have him and he outruns it. And Hues insane playcalling is geared to him when he’s in there. Those plays he used DMoore were Ford plays DMoore was outstanding but Ford is just lethal with the two of them and DHB……..there’s an italian saying that applies here………Fahgetabout it!
They’ll be gasping for air because they just haven’t seen anything like it. That why JCamp keeps saying he can’t wiat until he can get all the players healthy and go 4 and 5 wides the speed is unheard of. We’ll go no-huddle and put extreme pressure on defenses there’s nothing like it in the NFL…………..period

There are a ton of reserved, quiet coaches out there. Why Al doesn’t just hire one of them is beyond me. He hires Hue Jackson, knows Hue Jackson is the talkative, motivating type, then gets mad when Hue talks and motivates. It never ends.
September 28th, 2011 at 12:01 am
Mr did you pop a chubby when you heard Hue speaking his mind? Come on little man be honest.

Remember when the Raiders called Schefter a liar when he said Al was going to fire Art Shell? When the Raiders call someone a liar, it’s because he’s telling the truth. They know Al and Hue are already on the outs.

LOL! now he thinks he’s a media commentator! and we’re the raiders! this douche really live in a fantasy world, where this blog is a direct line to al davis, and he is part of the media. LMFAO!!!

Same thing with Shannahan, Gruden, and Kiffin. Al hires these guys, then runs them out when they become who they are. Now he’s doing it with Hue. It’s a waste of time. This is why the Raiders haven’t won in 9 years, and won’t again till Al’s gone. Pathetic.

exactly u moron. u never stop. don’t u have a real life?
obviously he knows he’s being an idiot. it’s all he has now. the raiders are playing well so he has to try to make something up in hopes to hang on here for a little while longer. it’s sad really. can’t u feel his sanity slipping away? get some help sullivan. find an outlet. play some dungeons and dragons w/ the other delusional socially awkward people.
September 28th, 2011 at 12:05 am
Al hires Shannahan, praises his style, then fires him for his style.
Al hires Gruden. Praises his style. Trades him off, because of his style.
Kiffin. It was bad from day one. Al hires him, soon later, before training camp, Al’s running out. Because Kiffin, to quote Dennis Green, is who he thought he was.
What does Al think, he’s going to just change these guys?
Then, Hue Jackson. Same thing. Al praises him. Hires him. Now, he wants Hue to shut his mouth. What gives?

September 28th, 2011 at 12:09 am
The thing is, Al can hire a quiet coach.
There’s plenty of them out there.
Why didn’t he just keep Norv if that’s the type of coach he wants?
There are plenty of coaches out there that won’t ever say a word, will never question Al’s authority.
Shannahan, Gruden, Kiffin and Hue Jackson are NOT it. Obviously.
It’s the same story all over again. Except now it’s with Hue Jackson. Al hires a coach just to fire him, for being him. So stupid.
September 28th, 2011 at 12:11 am

MR how come you hate Hue Jackson and want Al Davis to fire him.
It makes no sense for a Raider “fan” to think like this, considering how well Hue has been leading these Oakland Raiders. Strange indeed.
September 28th, 2011 at 12:21 am
Hopefully, the Raiders understand they can’t have any let down this week against the Patriots. NE was embarrassed last Sunday, and they are looking for some one to take it out on.
Might have been better for Oakland if the national media wasn’t playing them up so much at this time.
We will see. Goodnight.

Al has a track record of this.
He’ll hire these strong minded, motivator type coaches, then he’ll try to change them. Turn them into loyal mutes. It never works. Didn’t work with Shannahan. Didn’t work with Gruden. Didn’t work with Kiffin. And from what I’m hearing, it’s not going to well with Jackson.

Sha-na-rat only last a few weeks.
With Kiffin, they battled from the start.
With Gruden, Al didn’t want to pay him what he was worth at the time. We probably lost 2 Super Bowls because of it…one for sure.
September 28th, 2011 at 1:03 am
It’s funny how so many people take the position that since the “Beli-cheaters” loss last week to Buffalo, they’re going to come here “real mad” and beat us down.
Hey, first off, playing mad has you playing less
“focused” and definatly not better…that’s for sure.
Hope they are mad. Second, they’re on the road with a 3 hour difference in time zone, playing in a hostile enviroment with a sellout crowd whose going to be going bonkers. We’ll see total “insanity” if we win the toss, and drive down for a score, eating up 6 to 8 freaking minutes. Hey, we’ll be tough to beat. Mayham
and destruction…led by Seymour and Kelly.
Go Raiders.
PS: If we win this game, get read for all the phoneys
out there who become overnight Raiders fans, as if they really are and as if they hung in when the times were bad. Those are the most despicable rat bastzzds
around. They jump from winning team to winning team.

September 28th, 2011 at 1:14 am
the pats playing “mad” wouldn’t make a difference. playing scared perhaps. this could be a turning point w/ them. obviously the can pass the ball, but buffalo exposed them. they are only so-so running it. the raiders run game is as good as the pats passing game. but here’s the thing about running. it’s called ball-control. i kind think we match up well. we will run and eat clock. and we will strike deep on occasion and break their backs. their defense is really bad. they will probably panic and start chucking it, hoping brady will save them. but we can rush the qb very well. 10 sacks already this year. could force some mistakes and/or sacks. brady could get hurt.
i would still say it’s likely the pats will win, since they have been very good for quite awhile. but the armor is showing some chinks. it’s definitely possible we win.
one of two predictions:
if the pats play well, and show they are still a top team and the raiders still have a little ways to go, pats 34 raiders 24.
if the pats defense gets exposed and the raiders show they are on the rise, raiders 38 pats 24.

Bcz24, you should be used to the hate on bspn by now.
Tell my how D-MO’s td wasn’t on there? I haven’t seen a play like that in a long time.

THE MOORE TD ON THE REVERSE SHOULD HAVE BEEN THERE BCZ24..
September 28th, 2011 at 6:17 am
Nope, 8 of the 10 were passes, the other 2 were INTs.

How is the longest run EVER against a Rex Ryan defense not a top play of the week? Its absurd.
September 28th, 2011 at 6:35 am

September 28th, 2011 at 6:40 am
DMAC’s 70 Yard TD run, his 27 yard run in the option…
JC’s throw to Bush for 28 while scrambling, and Moore’s 23 yard reverse with Satele flattening Leonard…all should have been there. We should have dominated that top 10, but…
No sense getting upset with ESPN anymore…it just makes matters worse!
September 28th, 2011 at 6:41 am
Also, what about JC’s throw to Boss?
September 28th, 2011 at 6:43 am
Screw the networks. They probably didn’t like one of their beloved NY teams getting spanked by the bad boys of football. They won’t be able to ignore us much longer though.
As for MR: Definitely some major emotional scars there. I once worked with a guy like him…Would do anything for attention, even if that attention was negative. Not enough hugs as a child I suppose. Very sad.
September 28th, 2011 at 6:49 am
Boss’ catch was the result of a great play call…Send both TEs up the seams. The Patsies were having great success with this with Hernandez and Gronkowski. Let’s hope Reece can go Sunday so we can give them some of this.
September 28th, 2011 at 6:51 am
Oh no…just read up…MR is at it again with the Al hates Hue now stuff…WOW!
September 28th, 2011 at 6:54 am
I saw Moore’s run several times in the top ten plays. They made a point to mention Satele’s killer block every time. McFad made it as well. Nice to see Raiders get some recognition for a change.
September 28th, 2011 at 6:55 am

September 28th, 2011 at 7:35 am
Hey Hwnrdr, hope all is well in your world.
lol, we can throw in Nick Miller.
The Seahawks OL is a shambles, so maybe a back-up lineman? Or maybe Al can swing one of his famous 2014 4th round pick. That the Seahawks are looking to trade means they’re about ready to cut him, so can be low-balled.
September 28th, 2011 at 7:36 am

September 28th, 2011 at 7:55 am
You guys know if we beat the Patriots the vast majority of reporting is going to be about “Why the Patriots are struggling” and not “The Raiders are baaaack”. Just like last week it was “What’s wrong with the Jets” and after week one it was “Should the Broncos play Tebow”.
It will take sustained winning in order to get the decent publicity out of any of the major sports networks.

Which defense can make the most plays… Which offense can make the most plays…

this is exactly right. The only change I would make is not “if we beat the Idiots” but, “after the Idiots get spanked this weekend by the Raiders”
September 28th, 2011 at 8:00 am
Also, I hope the 12th Man is really a pain in their ears/arse!
September 28th, 2011 at 8:03 am
I think the Idiots are an infinitely beatable team. lst good matchup is their Oline vs. our Dline. They have structured their team to keep Brady standing. A couple of guys on that line are very very good. But then again let a future Hall of Famer talk about our guys:
Tomlinson said. “Their front four is as good as it’s ever been.”
September 28th, 2011 at 8:05 am
Was the last time we played the Patriots the game where Cable scripted the first 20 plays for his butt buddy Justin Fargas and we were down 21-0 before Cable could even get his first nose pick of the game in?
And later the Patriots said they only had to watch about 10 minutes of film to dissect the Raider D?
That was a low point.
I hope McFadden and the run game rip them apart.
September 28th, 2011 at 8:06 am
Was listening to some sports radio down here in S.D. yesterday and they are already scared to play us and pretty down on the dischargers.
September 28th, 2011 at 8:08 am
Agree… The Media will only grudgingly give the Raiders props…. If the Raiders should win it will be ( what’s wrong with the Patriots)….the Raiders will just have to force the media to reconize them …that’s fine…..espn is already running a ( patriots defenseless ) piece…
September 28th, 2011 at 8:09 am
Pats re-signed Gerard Warren…..think they are nervous about our running game? lol He won’t help, no matter how great Priesttj thought Warren was.

You guys know if we beat the Patriots the vast majority of reporting is going to be about “Why the Patriots are struggling” and not “The Raiders are baaaack”. Just like last week it was “What’s wrong with the Jets” and after week one it was “Should the Broncos play Tebow”.

More Stuff Ron Borges Boston Herald.
Richard Seymour was brought to Oakland two years ago to do more than play the way he did during five Pro Bowl seasons in New England. He was brought there to share what made those teams Super Bowl champions.
Al Davis traded for someone he believed would do more than bolster his defense. He traded for a mentor as well as a man-handler. In just over two seasons Seymour has done both.
The Raiders were embarking on their seventh straight losing year when he arrived, but by the end of his second season they were 8-8 and undefeated in their division. Sunday, when his Raiders welcome the Patriots [team stats] into the Black Hole that is the O.co Coliseum, they will be 2-1 and coming off a 10-point victory over the Jets. They have won nothing yet but have learned much.
Last year, then-Oakland cornerback Nnamdi Asomugha told Sports Illustrated no addition had been more important in the remaking of the Raiders than Seymour. This was not simply because of his play, which returned him to the Pro Bowl for a sixth time last season and has him credited with 21⁄2 sacks in three games at right defensive tackle this year. It was also because of the lessons he taught.
“Once he came in I felt like I had to step my game up,’’ Asomugha said then. “Before, it was like — you never get complacent, you never get content — but you get, I don’t know, kind of comfortable when you’re ‘the guy’ year after year after year.
“But when someone else comes in that’s the guy, that has won championships, you’re like, ‘OK, I’ve got to step my game up even more.’ It wasn’t a thing of competition. It was: I have to do better than I was doing for him to trust me and respect me. I have to do more because of whom I’m surrounded by, a guy who is studying, a guy who really wants to be the best. Richard did that for me and didn’t even know he was doing it.’’
Actually he did. Davis, the Raiders’ mad genius, made clear to Seymour from the start that his role was a dual one. He was there to play but also to teach others how to play in the same way he’d been taught.
“I learned a great deal from my teammates in New England,’’ Seymour said, declining to add Bill Belichick to the list. “I learned from Willie (McGinest), Ty (Law), (Tedy) Bruschi, Teddy (Johnson), Rodney (Harrison). They showed me the switch was never shut off.
“All I’ve done is ask guys to understand what it takes. We had a talented team but we had a lot of young guys. Young players don’t know what they don’t know. It’s not their fault. I accepted a leadership role in changing the mentality around here.
“Winning is not something you just do on Sunday. It’s the little things that make champions. How well do you prepare? How hard did you work all week? Talent alone doesn’t win football games. I was taught hard work beats talent when talent doesn’t work hard. What can you do if you have both?’’
It is a lesson delivered more in the doing than in the saying. According to his teammates, Seymour is among the first to arrive and last to leave. He watches film incessantly. He not only wants to win on Sunday, he prepares to win all week.
This week will be no different. While he would like nothing better than to beat his old friend Tom Brady [stats], Seymour insisted he would do nothing more than he always does and would ask no more of his teammates because, he assumes, they are already doing all they can.
“I won’t prepare any different,’’ Seymour said. “I prepare hard for all my opponents. Same thing I did for the Jets I’ll do for the Patriots.’’
That will include bringing an attitude best exemplified by the nutty-looking fanatics in the Black Hole. In their glory years there was always an edge to the Raiders, a darkly ominous edge. It is one reason why Seymour cheered for them as a boy growing up in South Carolina. It is why he now feels more at home here than anywhere he’s been.
“I was always a fan of the Silver and Black,’’ Seymour said. “My dad was a Raider fan. Whoever he liked, I liked. Just the mystique of that uniform. It’s more than a team. You’re carrying a culture with you.
“We play Raider football. Nasty, rip-your-head-off brutality. As a lineman, that’s the ultimate.’’
In New England, Seymour was under the restraints of the two-gap, 3-4 front favored by Belichick. Now he’s off the chain, free to teach and to decapitate quarterbacks.
He likes both jobs.
“We know what’s coming,’’ Seymour said. “They got good players. So do we. Come Sunday, we’ll have the Black Hole rockin’.’’

More from the Herald Karen Guregian
FALMOUTH — The Patriots [team stats] talk quite a bit about playing complementary football. Against the Bills on Sunday, there was an attempt made to complement Tom Brady [stats]’s passing game with a running attack.
With that in mind, they gave the ball to BenJarvus Green-Ellis in hopes of establishing the run.
And why not?
The Bills were the worst defense in the league against the run last season, and while they’ve improved in that area, they still were having some difficulties.
Moreover, with an injury-depleted defense (Patrick Chung, Ras-I Dowling, Albert Haynesworth and Mike Wright were among the missing), it made sense to pound away at the Bills and engineer some clock-killing-type drives.
Only, the Patriots never got the ball rolling. Green-Ellis was stuffed time and again. He wound up with 16 yards on nine carries. Green-Ellis even had difficulty at the goal line, failing to get across from the 1 twice on short-yardage occasions. That’s usually his bread and butter.
The holes just weren’t there, and if they were, Green-Ellis seemed to find the walls. In short, it wasn’t a good afternoon for the 1,000-yard rusher.
But the Patriots kept after it, trying to run the football with a succession of Danny Woodhead, Stevan Ridley and Julian Edelman.
Wait. Edelman?
Yes, they had the wide receiver take a few handoffs from the backfield for the first time. Of the lot, Ridley (seven carries, 44 yards) had the most success, and that came late in the game.
The 108 yards they gained on the ground overall is somewhat deceiving. Wes Welker had a carry on an end-around and gained 19 yards. The one-two punch of Green-Ellis and Woodhead gained 37 yards on 15 carries.
Now, do we expect the Patriots to be a rush-first football team? Of course not. They will live and die on the strength of Brady and his aerial show.
But it’s important to remember, there are times when the Pats are going to need to run the football. They are a game-plan offense. They adapt from week to week to their opponent. So the ability to run is something you should be able to pull out of your back pocket.
Right now, it’s just not something they can comfortably go to in a pinch. They were able to close out the Chargers with a game-clinching drive, punctuated by some clock-killing runs by Green-Ellis. That was a good sign. The struggle against the Bills, however, raised a flag.
Does Green-Ellis, who’s rushed for 122 yards in three games, good for 30th in the league, feel teams are keying on him more given his success last year?
“It’s the game of football. Teams are going to do whatever they need to win,’’ the running back said following an appearance at the Morse Pond School. “So, right now, we just have to go out there and counter what they’re doing, and be better.’’
The Pats rank 13th in the league in rushing, which isn’t bad. But when you don’t have that game-changing type of back like Corey Dillon [stats], it’s even more important to find someone or some way to move the ball on the ground at key times. Against Buffalo, it just wasn’t there.
Ridley certainly provided a spark and finally injected some life in the running game, but it’s way too early to see where he’s going to fit or assess just how much of an impact he’ll have. Based on the performance, though, it’s earned him more carries.
“Last week was basically the first game that he had played a decent amount,’’ offensive coordinator Bill O’Brien said yesterday. “He’s got a long way to go, just like any rookie, as it relates to the overall scheme and knowing what to do and things like that. He’ll be another guy that we add into the mix there.’’
Just another running back they hope can complement Brady when the time comes
September 28th, 2011 at 8:33 am
The Raiders can’t allow Woodhead to get easy completions underneath….not sure how to stop it with our LBers…but we have to otherwise he will run wild with tons of YAC.

BTW, the last 3 years, the Raiders are 2nd in the NFL (behind NE) for drawn roughing the passer calls.
There is a ref conspiracy…..to help the Raiders!!!
September 28th, 2011 at 8:41 am
Pats have been held together by Tom Brady over the last few regular seasons.
Than things unravel in the postseason, because they really aren’t that good or deep.
No top-tier WR’s, DB’s or RB’s. And really only one elite O-lineman (Mankins), D-lineman (Wilfork) or LB (Mayo).
All smoke and mirrors with these guys, but Bellicheck is the master of smoke and mirrors.

Well Mista, you keep hitting on the weak spots you see and I will keep hitting on the ones I see. I don’t think either of us would be described as cup half full types regarding the Raiders by the other posters in here.
I agree with you on DHB, and partially on Jano. I still get nervous when Jano lines up for an important field goal.
I am more concerned with lazy ass Rolando McClain than I am Seymour though.
September 28th, 2011 at 9:17 am
I hope we crowd the inside slant passing lanes. Perhaps even drop a lineman back every now and then in hopes of batting or even picking off a pass. Thoughts?
September 28th, 2011 at 9:18 am
Dak, if you are happy with Seymour as the invisible man and DHB’s one’s of TD catches per season just let me know and i’ll take my foot off.
You dont have much complaining about S Routt these days though. After he was covering the 1’s for #21 the last 4 years not much of a drop off there.
September 28th, 2011 at 9:20 am
Alright, you hit yours i’ll hit mine. Rolando is a tough one because he’s young. I wont put any added pressure on him because he looks like he works hard and wants to succeed. Seymour on the other hand…oh boy
Im going to give McClain a pass this year and if he doesn’t step up by the end of season I will jam him hard next year.

I agree. The Pats don’t have WRs who can burn us deep, so press them close to the line. Where they can kill us is with Welker and Woodhead on the underneath stuff. All year long we have been giving teams easy stuff underneath, but with Woodhead and Welker they will kill us if we do that.

September 28th, 2011 at 9:23 am
Dak,
I’m a fair guy. Look how long SeaPerch and #21 were here before I jammed em. I sat and watched for years before I had enough. Now I’m giving McClain the same breathing room.
You on the other hand, itchy trigger finger ?
September 28th, 2011 at 9:24 am
Concerns right now are McClain and starting the guys at WR that give us the best chance to win. Though DHB did put a good move on one particular play. Regardless, even if he gets open down the field, the connection doesn’t get made. Campbell is still a bit off and DHB doesn’t attack the ball.

We’ll see just how “good of a coaching staff” we have come Sunday. Supposedly, we have some experienced dudes who should know how to exploit the weaknesses of the “Beli-cheaters.”
This game is “more important” than any other because it will MARK the point of our development and the true
level of where we stand in the NFL at this time. We will be able to gauge “how” we should do against other teams, because of the dominance that the Beli-cheaters
have demonstrated over the years.
The genius, if any, of coach Hue Jackson is on the
line and I hope he shows up with a solid game plan that
produces a WIN. This Sunday is his moment.
Like the warden in the Shawshank Redemption said to the prison guard, Fritz: “Fine him, not tomorrow, not after breakfast, but NOW.” NOW being this Sunday, not the next or some other one down the line. It’s now.

If Nnamdi’s presence was worth 100 few passing yards per game for us, then hell yes he was worth whatever he got from the Eagles.

Mista,
You wanted nnamdi gone. Now he is gone and we are giving up 100+ more yards per game against the pass.
I think whatever opinion you might of held on Nnamdi is not looking good, even if Nnamdi had a bad game last week lol.
————————————————-
This can be in part that the offence is scoring. We have put teams in a position to have to score and score with little time on the clock.
Just for the record I wish nnam was here.

I like #21 but we paid him too much already. Complain all you want, but the Philly secondary blows! They gave up 4 touchdowns to Peyton’s brother who had to throw to a bunch of back up recievers on Sunday. They also gave up 5 straight tds to Atlanta Monday night. Their offense has been lousy too. He isn’t making a difference there.

funny how the local media keeps grilling hu jack on his conversations with uncle AL. Are they purposely trying to cause dissension and make a division between hu and al?
HU Jack is way to slick for that, as he tactfully gives major credit to the Al and the rest of the organization. this indeed disarms those that would paint a picture of Hu jack claiming victory in spite of Davis, and we all know this the story they hope to write.
Sorry media guys HU jack and Davis are in lock step, and there is nothing you can do to stop our rise back into prominence and utter dominance.
Roll with us or get rolled over!

Nnamdi is clearly a top flight talent, yet he is struggling in philly. Could it be the system we played here was tailored to fit his strengths. maybe the raiders helped make him better, and he in turn helped our defense. I think we are finding that system and player must fit, and it is indeed a two way street.

Could very well be. With the shortened offseason any player could struggle adjusting to a new system. But I think Nnamdi will adjust. Much easier to go from man to man to playing zone than it is to go from zone to playing man to man. Just ask Meangelo.

Good call.
Watched Hue’s presser from Monday, not sure if Steve printed the portion where Hue said he was not afraid — like many around the league — to run reverses and HB passes, etc., particularly on back-to-back plays.
Hope Hue’s attitude continues to rub off on the team.
Favorite moment of Sunday’s W (other than watching the clock tick down to 0.00): Hue pumping up the crowd right before Cromartie coughed up the kickoff.

September 28th, 2011 at 10:28 am
Aaron Hernandez (knee) said he’s hoping to play in Sunday’s game against the Raiders.
Hernandez was predictably cryptic, not even revealing if he will practice Wednesday. He also declined to say if he thinks he’ll actually be able to play this week. Regardless of his questionable Week 4 status, Hernandez should be rostered in all formats as his MCL sprain does not appear to be of the Grade 2 or 3 variety. He’ll be a TE1 once he gets active.

Hope on defense Huff and Van Dyke are healthy and ready for this one!!! Wimbley will be one to watch this game if immediate pressure does not get to Brady. He is athletic enough to move around and make plays.When the Pats drag wes welker across the field Wimbley should be there at times to greet him with his mind on separating him from the ball. That means most of the time the Raiders cannot play this sloppy loose zone that have windows a herd of elephants can pass through . They must play a tight zone coverage most of the time to somewhat direct welker and others in way of a collisions or interceptions. I have have confidence the Raiders can guard the sidelines fairly well (Man or zone coverage). I know this is know secret but everybody in the secondary has to come up and make tackles to prevent the long RAC the Pats our known for. I would not trade the Raiders receiving core for the Pats even though the Pats receivers have proved themselves to be sucessful bunch. The Raiders have to believe and play like they they have the better players and team to beat the Pats.
As part of a packed house this weekend I hope I can toss one cold one back as result of a Raider victory over the Superbowl favorite PATS.

Yeah man thats just special…ya know LA the thing I like about Hue is he lives by Jack London and wants to be apart of this community. Oakland at least near downtown is changing its program so him being around the people is great for the city

It was strange, last night, to see Moose Johnstone (Buffalo Native) was buying in to the Raiders making the playoffs, but was selling on the idea that Buffalo would, as well.

B, I like just about everything I’ve seen from Hue so far. He’s getting the most out of the offense.
If the D stays aggressive and gets to the QB, we may have something special here.
Also, I’d prefer to fly under the radar. Seems like the last few days, everyone’s complaining we haven’t gotten enough respect. I guess 7 years of losing and one year of .500 will do that but I have absolutely zero interest in what the media says or where we’re ranked.
Means nada at the end of the day.
However, if we beat NE, we’ll be on everyone’s radar and the fans will get what they want.

From NFLDraftScout.com on Aaron Curry:
“Compares To: DERRICK JOHNSON, Kansas City — Like the Chiefs finally realized with Johnson, hopefully the NFL team that drafts Curry will do likewise and play him in the middle. He has very good athleticism making plays in front of him, but bites often on play-action, lacks good depth playing in the zone and is a bit too stiff to generate the sideline-to-sideline range to make impact plays on the outside, where he struggles to stop the runner’s forward momentum. He can clog the rush lanes when he stays low in his pads. Put him inside in a 3-4 alignment and he can be equally productive getting to the quarterback as he did in college. Play him on the outside and he will be exposed in a quick and deep passing game.”
Get him Al and stick him next to McClain, play a little 3-4.

Patriots bring back Gerard Warren
Posted by Gregg Rosenthal (PFT)
Bill Belichick said Wednesday that letting go of Gerard Warren before the season was a “hard cut.”
On Wednesday, the team officially brought Warren back into the fold in an effort to help the league’s last-ranked defense.
Warren helps add depth to a group that was without Myron Pryor, Mike Wright, and Albert Haynesworth last week.
Pryor is out for the season and it’s uncertain when Haynesworth or Wright will return.

Aaron Hernandez (knee) was held out of Patriots practice Wednesday.
Hernandez told reporters early Wednesday that he’s shooting to play Sunday against Oakland, but the Pats don’t use players that don’t practice. It appears Hernandez has not yet been medically cleared to take the field.
