McClain returns to practice, McFadden still absent
By Steve Corkran
Friday, November 4th, 2011 at 11:17 am in Oakland Raiders.
Middle linebacker Rolando McClain is practicing today for the first time since he hurt his leg. He missed the past five practices. His return today signifies that he has a realistic shot at playing against the Denver Broncos on Sunday.
There’s little or no chance of running back Darren McFadden playing Sunday. He isn’t at practice once again, making it six straight since he suffered a mid-foot sprain against the Kansas City Chiefs on Oct. 23.
Michael Bush and Taiwan Jones are getting all the reps at running back in anticipating of their filling in for McFadden on Sunday. Bush is expected to make his first start of the season, with Jones getting his most extensive playing time of the year.
Cornerbacks Chris Johnson and Chimdi Chekwa aren’t practicing, either. Johnson likely will be ruled out later today. It’s also a long-shot for Chekwa to play. Hence, the signing of veteran Lito Sheppard.
Kicker Sebastian Janikowski is at practice. However, he has yet to attempt any field goals in almost three weeks. Coach Hue Jackson said he wants to see Janikowski test his injured left (kicking leg) hamstring before he commits to using him Sunday.
At one point, Janikowski donned a helmet and lined up as if he was going to kick off. Ultimately, he kicked the ball a short distance with his right foot. So, he remains a question mark until further notice.
The Raiders signed kicker Dave Rayner the day before the Chiefs game. So, it’s conceivable that they won’t make a decision on Janikowski until tomorrow at some point.
Wide receiver Louis Murphy is being used as a gunner on punt coverage now that Derek Hagan isn’t on the roster. Take that either as a sign of his versatility or a sign of his decreased importance in the offense.
Murphy appeared to tweak his groin early in practice. A trainer spent several minutes stretching out Murphy’s groin soon thereafter. He missed the first five games this season as a result of groin surgery during training camp.
The Raiders play the San Diego Chargers on Thursday night, Nov. 10, in the first of such games by NFL Network. One of the network’s reporters, Mike Mayock, is at practice today.
Naturally, the Raiders allowed Mayock far better access than they do for the media that cover the team on a daily basis. Guess the NFL doesn’t hold the employees of the network it owns to the same guidelines that it does other credentialed media.

I like Hue Jackson, but he’s got to hit that 12 win mark and get us to the AFC championship before he proves to me he’s better than Gruden.

You take it for what it’s worth. You watch practice, interview guys, compile stats and info, put a spin on it and offer up your own commentary. These guys can’t help but be subjective.

Hue will roll with the hot hand. If Bush is getting 3 yards per carry and Jones is getting 5, guess who will get the bigger workload in the 2nd half?
Hard to justify NOT letting Bush carry the load if he’s getting it done. give the man 30 carries. His legs should be fresh with less than 9 carries per game (on avg) this season. Plus he’s getting big bucks. Jones making peanuts

Is he competing with Chaz for the fragile label or something? Chaz still has quite a lead imo

If Carson Palmer completes at least 55% of his passes and doesn’t turn the ball over, it’s a guaranteed Raider victory imo

RR, with the past 2 weeks to bond with this team, and his knowledge of the game, CP will be alright this week. Some vanilla, I’m sure, but if the D knocks em on their backs, we’ll be ok. They have some key injurys as well!

Hue will roll with the hot hand. If Bush is getting 3 yards per carry and Jones is getting 5, guess who will get the bigger workload in the 2nd half?
Hard to justify NOT letting Bush carry the load if he’s getting it done. give the man 30 carries. His legs should be fresh with less than 9 carries per game (on avg) this season. Plus he’s getting big bucks. Jones making peanuts

===============================================
This is a game where the offense should be able to exploit a weak Bunco secondary. They have not been getting much of a rush, and they certainly have not been covering anyone back there. All that being said, it could still take a while to get the timing right. Especially on deep balls.
On the other side, hopefully McClain is back to full strength. He might be the most important factor in the entire game, as McGehee claims he is going to play with a broken hand, but Teblow has been a big factor running. Having McClain there to run him down, might prevent any Bunco offense.

November 4th, 2011 at 1:23 pm
- Excited to see a full game from Palmer and his comfort level with the offense and WR. He will light years ahead of the KC game, but I hope we ease him in. Game management, no TO’s, and some timely throws are all we should need against Denver.
– Bush usually has played well in DMac’s absence, but we always missed DMac’s speed. Enter Taiwan Jones. I expect a big game from the rook as a speedy compliment to Bush as the main back.
– Defense should spy Tebow, rush Tebow, hit Tebow, make Tebow cough up the ball. Do not fear Tebow. Attack him and make him prove he can throw it by the 8 man box. See Lions, Detroit.
– Tebow has been sacked 12 times last two games…bring it defense. Confuse and destroy in Q1. Give the Denver O no hope.
– This is a must win heading to SD on Thurs. Put the KC game in the rear view mirror. The time for a Silver & Black win streak starts now.
– That being said i expect a tough game until the Raiders finally pull away. Denver is still an NFL team and got embarrased last week. Our talent should win out.

This isn’t necessarily directed towards you Mr. Corkran, but the Raiders don’t allow Bay Area media better access because of all the nonsense most write, straight up.On another note, I’d like to see Taiwan Jones get a 10+ touches this week. I think the kid got it and the only way to tell is to cut him loose. McFadden probably won’t be back until after the SD game. If that is what it takes do get him 100%, do it Hue. DOn’t rush him because if we are going to make a playoff push this year, his health is vital.

Well, let the DEF mix some coverages, but not go overboard, don’t let Tebow run and we should win. Better watch the TE Lafell. Course, we gotta score, and hopefully the team isn’t expecting 40 pts or bust from Palmer. Let him learn to play with his team, not be the team, so we can play like a team and not stand around and wait for him to make a play. We do need possession receivers (always been a Biletnikoff over Branch fan) so Housh gotta show me something by the Charger game, or he can blow.

This instant gradification and entitlement bs is way out of hand. Hue hasn’t even been coach for a full year, and hasn’t even reached his 12th game yet. Save this comment for year 2014. But by then you probably wont be able to make it.
November 5th, 2011 at 3:13 pm
Still think we should have picked up T.O. Instead of TJ owens is more of an all around threat where TJ just goes across the middle. If a team mans up on tj he’s not effective but will be good against zones. Reminds me of Hines ward he is also slow and is easily covered in man to man. T.O. Can still beat man coverage and seymour would keep him in check. Anyone agree?
