Raiders off. coord. Saunders hints Palmer might start Sunday
By Steve Corkran
Wednesday, October 19th, 2011 at 9:54 am in Oakland Raiders.
Raiders offensive coordinator Al Saunders spoke with a Kansas City radio station Wednesday morning. Among the interesting tidbits, Saunders hinted that Carson Palmer might start against the Chiefs on Sunday.
“If he’s ready to go, that’s a real consideration,” Saunders said on “Fescoe In The Morning” 610-AM.
When asked later by the host, “What do you need to see out of Carson Palmer to tell you he’s ready to go in order to where he can put you in position to be successful?” Saunders had a quick reply.
“As long as he’s breathing,” Saunders said.
Naturally, the decision on whether Palmer starts Sunday rests with coach Hue Jackson. He said Tuesday that he hasn’t decided yet whether to start Palmer.
“I’m not going to let that out of the bag just yet,” Jackson said. “But you’ve got to be ready for anything from me.”
Jackson surprised many by starting outside linebacker Aaron Curry last Sunday, two days after he joined the Raiders via trade from the Seattle Seahawks and with only one practice under his belt.
Of course, playing quarterback entails knowing far more than linebacker. Palmer is about 20 minutes away from taking the field with the Raiders for the first time.
He worked out Tuesday and performed well enough to prompt a lot of superlatives, Saunders said.
“He walked out on the field yesterday, and everybody kind of looked at everybody and said, ‘You know what? This is a real quarterback,’ ” Saunders said. “That was the comment made by a couple people as they watched him throw. It just depends on how quickly he feels comfortable in what we’re doing, and that shouldn’t take too long.”

Seymour last played like a monster last year vs KC in oakland
—————————————————–
Seymour and Kelly rated out as the top 2 DTs IN THE LEAGUE through week 5.
Just don’t see why you bash them.
Finally get a LB to play WLB for us, we protect the edges, and our run defense looks pretty good.
Henderson is a PART of he good run defense. So are a lot of other guys.
October 19th, 2011 at 9:57 am
yeah AIG you said JC would fail during summer cuz u knew it…4-2 start….eat it you bz
October 19th, 2011 at 9:58 am
Then what were they doing taking up a spot with Boller? So it basically cost us two first round picks just because the team didn’t bother having a half-decent back up for the real possibility of the starter getting hurt? Can you say poor planning
October 19th, 2011 at 9:58 am
#3 is a real QB?
You don’t f^k!ng say?
October 19th, 2011 at 9:58 am
Hue will win at anyprice and that includes the cost of the bus he threw JC and KB under. This is what we as fans wanted. I don’t like it because I’m a softie. HueJack obviously isn’t.
Just win baby!

Boller sucks sure enough, but name me a backup in the league they could’ve had who could’ve come in and given the team as good a playoff shot as Palmer does.

We’ll avg 30, no problem.
October 19th, 2011 at 10:01 am
I have no problem with the bus that JC and KB are under. When Belicheck does it he’s called a genius. That’s the way the NFL works. Make the playoffs every year and it doesn’t matter the carnage that is left behind.
October 19th, 2011 at 10:01 am
Boller will be around for 6 weeks. Once Campbell is healthy, Boller will be gone. KC agenda, run, run, run the ball. Palmer will be starting, shouldn’t have to throw more than 15-20 times. Having history with Hue Jackson in college and with Cincy really helps.

1. Al was already aiming for replacing Soup with Carson in `12.
2. Soup got dented, so the timeline wass moved up.
3. As I said, backup QBs finish games not winning seasons.
4. No good team has two equal QBs in case one goes down. Just weak teams (see Culpep v. McCown).

October 19th, 2011 at 10:05 am
I personaly love the Palmer trade, but as much as i think Boller is garbage in cleats, i think he should get the start against KC…KC is a winnable game even with KB.
October 19th, 2011 at 10:05 am
KC shouldn’t be a problem…McFadden ran all over them in 2008 when he couldn’t get it going against anybody. With Eric Berry out, their secondary can be exploited (Jacoby demolished Eric Flowers in last year’s game in Oakland). The key is that our D-Line has absolutely manhandled KC, they had Cassel running for his life in Kansas City last year, and KC has done little to improve their O-Line. I cannot understate how well John Henderson has played in shoring up the run. That guy eats up blockers and is playing extremely well in a way stats cannot measure. Palmer’s play will be secondary to the running attack and our defense’s ability to put Cassel on his back.

October 19th, 2011 at 10:07 am
We have to trust Hue he has got us here from a crappy team to a contender.
Hue knows Palmer more than any other coach in this league and he must have wanted him real bad to go after him so aggressively.
I think this will open up the playbook even more. look for a more explosive offense by week 8.
WHY NOT US!!!!!

Did you notice the comment Hue made in yesterdays presser?
He said I am the head coach and I call the plays on offense AND I am in charge of stopping the run!
Now Hue has his hand in the D.

For all those that say Palmer is washed up – did you see what he did to SD’s #1 Defense in Week 16 of 2010? His passer rating was like 140 and he had 3 TDs. What Raider QB in recent memory has been able to do that to SD especially with a poor running offense and likely having SD know you are throwing. There is no way he was washed up as of December 2010.
How fast he will work in is a question mark etc… but to say someone that puts on a show like that in his second to last game he played is not washed up!! Remember his Stats are affected by two washed up recievers for most of the year a bad offensive line, poor running game and having to throw from behind.
October 19th, 2011 at 10:12 am
Bush’s contract up at end of year , he resigns or walks into FA…

I disagree. If it were Denver, we could start Lechler and win by 30. KC would have been tough even if JC had started. Two-game win streak and coming off a bye. We didn’t give a 1st and a 2nd so CP could stand by and watch us lose our 1st division game in the last 8 tries. He needs to get his ass out there.

Bush’s contract is up at year end, but they could do a sign & trade deal. Might be worth getting something for him before he walks to be a #1 somewhere else?

October 19th, 2011 at 10:21 am
Jamarcus was considered a high risk reward pick. BSPN analysts at the time said we should pick him. When he began to fail they said it was because of the culture in Oakland (instead of taking some responsibility). If you look at his college career you could see this coming (i.e. 2nd coming of Ryan Leaf) I have no respect for BSPN draft analysts. I wonder what they will say if Heyward Bey gets of 1k yrds and has more than Crabtree this year. Yea thats right they will say nothing and hope that no one remembers.

Kelly jumping offsides last week on a 3rd and 11 costing us a TD is a prime example of what you guys are talking about.
Still, he’s a good player and contributes big time to our defense.
And yes, so does Henderson.

Kelly is good but takes too many risks trying to be get the stats. When coaches stress “staying in our run lanes” they are looking right at TKelly. Guy wants to still play like a DE. Not his job now.
******************
Jhill knows this but he is being stubborn…guy is smarter than this
——————————————————
All I’ve ever said is Kelly was a good player.
Thought it was ridiculous to suggest we CUT him or hope that he TEARS AN ACL!!!!
Kelly jumping offsides last week on a 3rd and 11 costing us a TD is a prime example of what you guys are talking about.
Still, he’s a good player and contributes big time to our defense.
And yes, so does Henderson.
*******************
Kelly been playing better this year cuz he hadthe B@uce rip him on the live chat before season….they see the questions for sure…I’m a motivator….although a guy like Russell I couldnt….. only help with a bat the the knee cap

Like I said before, I think KC’s QB is the reincarnation of Jim “Chrissy” Everett.
We are going to see him and Haley shouting at each other this weekend.
We’ll win by at least 2 TDs regardless of who starts.

Why does everyone want to jettison Bush? He plays an important role here: short-yardage back; closer in our 4 minute offense. Is he as good as McFadden? No. I don’t think any back is right now. But he’s still very good, very versatile and an important piece of this offense. You can’t just look at his stats because when he’s asked to run its usually in situations where if he gets 1-2 yards its a great success.
October 19th, 2011 at 10:28 am

If he really starts I expect no more than 20 attempts but some play action on first down and on one play, a burned KC defender that was leaning into the box to much. I expect one long TD and one red zone TD and a pick and a fumble and a couple of sacks. I expect Oakland to win a close game.
October 19th, 2011 at 10:28 am
I think Palmer tries an early long bomb just to make sure KC doesn’t put 8 in the box. Hopefully DHB, Ford, or Moore catches it. If it’s caught, it will be time for a good old AFC West butt kicking.

Tee Martin told Al that JaMarcus was the real deal and vouched for his character and the Raiders turned it down.

Raiders SHOULD have been on their way to a blow out of the Browns with JC, but the reality of the situation is it was still a game because of bone head JC plays.
Of course the fumble was just flat out ridiculous.
Then he repeats his pattern of awkward endings to his runs and finally hurts himself like a few of predicted he would.
If JC isn’t, uh, JC, then yeah I agree we should have blown out the Browns.

Hind sight is 20-20. I didn’t know if JaMarcus would turn out to be a great qb, but I didn’t have any question about his arm. His last season at LSU he threw the ball accurately, and even on the run rolling out he could throw the ball on target. Then once he got here and collected a fat paycheck, his accuracy was gone.

As long as we don’t ask Carson to chuck it 25+ times every week, we shouldn’t have anything to worry about. With the backs we have, there’s no reason to even attempt to give his elbow a chance to flare up. I am excited to see what his deep ball now looks like being he had a pretty good one in his best years. Denarius Moore’s fantasy value goes waaaaaaaaaaaay up. Love dude’s knack for snagging those bombs. Just lay it out there Carson; make ‘em go get it.

Also worth remembering that Russell was showing signs of improvement throughout 2008. Then his uncle died and he fell to pieces. If I remember correctly, his uncle was the dominant presence in his life and the guy who kept him grounded. There wasn’t going to be anyone who could fill that void.
Not making excuses for him–he was a grown azz man and shouldn’t have needed someone riding herd on him–but it didn’t help his chances, that’s for sure.

Will Palmer start for Raiders on Sunday vs. Chiefs?
It might make more sense for the Raiders to wait another game before starting the newly acquired Carson Palmer at quarterback. Oakland has the bye next week and they could give Palmer two weeks in his new surroundings before starting him in a game, in this case the Nov. 6 home game against the Broncos.
But it now looks like Palmer, traded from Cincinnati to Oakland only yesterday, will probably start Sunday’s game against the Chiefs.
“I don’t know that for sure,’’ Oakland coach Hue Jackson said today in a conference call with Kansas City area reporters. “Obviously, we haven’t had one practice. Until I get a chance to see what’s going on in practice can I make any kind of decision that way.’’
But Jackson left the impression the Raiders would do everything they can to play Palmer against the Chiefs.
“That would be tough. But if anybody can do it, he can,’’ Jackson said. “We’ll get him in practice and see where he is and see how his body is . . . and kind of go from there.
“I know he trains. He trains hard. He takes care of his body. He takes care of his emotional side. He’s played this game. It’s all he’s known for the last eight years of his life.’’

Russell was awful. But the Raiders were just as bad the 3 years prior to him as they were when he was there.

Hue Knows, I have two thought processes. What I want to see happen, and what I can realistically visualize happening. I want the Raiders to win 50-0. But I see Cassell putting up some points, and KC giving our offense some trouble, even with a much improved QB in Palmer. Just how I think.

Why all the predictions that Carson will throw at least a pick. Not against KC without Berry.
++++++++++
Gotta figure starting on a short week he’ll make at least 1 mistake
________________________________________________
I dont even think Boller would have thrown an INT this week against KC. This is a perfect week for Carson to start. KC is very bad, on both sides of the ball and are going to be dominated. 42-10. And the TD will come in garbage time. Dont let those two wins KC has fool you. Against IND and MINN, two teams that are just as bad. Our players are going to come out on fire for this game, and DMAC will have 200 all purpose, easy. Carson wont even have the opp to throw an interception.

Saunders should not have hinted about possibly that Palmer may start Sunday; let KC wonder and find out on Sunday. Palmer should start if he is ready, can not afford risk of losing to division rival. I hope Curry gets a lot of playing time, he was huge on plays last Sunday. Agree that Chuck B is not a real DC, can not wait to see how Hue will change that as I am sure he will.

Bau$e,
I know it pains you to see JC no longer part of the Raiders plan. There are some good reads on the net on how to deal with grief. I think a popular one is the 5 stages process: Denial, Anger, Bargaining, Depression and Acceptance.
Have you left the Denial stage and gone over to Anger yet? I think so.

Denarius Moore will be his favorite. He always had bigger WR in cincy: ocho, TO, Housh, simpson, henry …. Ford will take him some tim e to gel with and DHB catches the ball with his body still. Moore has the best hands and Chaz schilens.
I say Moore and Schilens will be his favorite WRs out the gates. Boss will be blockin largely to protect our franchise QB until he settles in.
October 19th, 2011 at 11:20 am
At least with Palmer we might see more Moore. Instead of them force feeding DHB.
Palmer can find his favorite WR now.
This move also sends a message to other players in the league that the Raiders are set on winning and in the post AL Davis days we get more FA interests.
October 19th, 2011 at 11:21 am
Hue Jackson will open up Sunday with Boller running the option.
Then he will bring Carson in…
