Coach Jackson says McFadden ‘not ready yet’

By Steve Corkran
Wednesday, December 28th, 2011 at 3:55 pm in Oakland Raiders.

Each week, Raiders coach Hue Jackson speaks with running back Darren McFadden about his rehabilitation from a midfoot sprain. From there, he huddles with the team trainers assigned to get McFadden healthy.
Ultimately, Jackson gazes into the eyes of the trainers as a means of getting a true sense for McFadden’s progress toward a return from an injury that occurred Oct. 23.
Jackson says, when he doesn’t get the look he wants, “I go the other way.”
The latest look from the trainers told Jackson that McFadden isn’t ready to resume practicing or playing despite missing the past 66 days.
“He’s not ready yet,” Jackson said Wednesday.
On the bright side, Jackson said, the expression from the trainers tells him that there is hope of seeing McFadden play again this season.
“That expression’s much better, but it’s just not where it needs to be,” Jackson said. “It’s not that, ‘Here we go.’ But we’re getting there, though. And he is more confident. So we’re getting closer, but we’re not there yet.”
McFadden has not spoken with the media since he suffered his injury Oct. 23. He was not in the locker room during media access Wednesday, as has been the case every time the past nine-plus weeks.
Therefore, it’s anyone’s guess, including Jackson’s, as to whether McFadden will play again this season. At this point, it appears as if the best hope is if the Raiders make it to the playoffs.

PENALTIES A HOT TOPIC
With the Raiders closing fast on the NFL records for most penalties (158) and penalty yards (1,304) in a season, players are searching for ways to get a grip on the seemingly never-ending issue.
Jackson isn’t allowed to fine players, per the collective bargaining agreement. That doesn’t stop the players from imposing fines on each other.
To that end, defensive tackle Tommy Kelly said he and his defensive mates pay a $100 fine for penalties. The money goes into a jar in defensive coordinator Chuck Bresnahan’s office. He said he isn’t sure where that money goes at season’s end.
Yet, he is certain that “there’s a big ol’ knot” of cash in that jar.
“We fine each other $100,” Kelly said, “but everybody out here is making money, so two or hundred dollars ain’t going to matter.”
When it was suggested that the fine be upped to $1,000, Kelly laughed.
“If you up it to $1,000, some guys will get mad about paying it,” Kelly said.
Quarterback Carson Palmer is getting his first taste of what it’s like playing for a Raiders team that always finishes at, or near, the top of the league in penalties.
“As those flags get going in games, I always have guys come up to me on the sideline saying, ‘This is what happens when you play for the Raiders,’ ” Palmer said.
Kelly said the Raiders are fortunate that the penalties haven’t been even more costly.
“When it comes back to bite us in a really big moment, I guess that’s when everybody is going to realize that we need to focus in on it a little bit more,” Kelly said.

FORD WELCOMED BACK
Wide receiver Jacoby Ford practiced Wednesday for the first time in 48 days. Palmer said Ford’s return can’t be overstated.
Palmer said it would be “huge” to get Ford back in the mix for the Chargers game and, perhaps, the playoffs.
“It was good to kind of get his feet wet the first day,” Palmer said, “and he’ll get more and more as the week goes on.”
Jackson said he wants to see how well Ford does in practice the rest of the week before he commits to a sizable workload. He isn’t ruling out Ford returning kicks, too.
“I don’t know that I feel comfortable with that yet,” Jackson said. “Again, obviously, if he has an opportunity to play, we’ll put him out there, but I just don’t want to put him out there and put him in a bad situation.”

CHARGERS GUNNING FOR RAIDERS
Nonsense, Jackson said, when asked about the possibility of the Chargers going through the motions Sunday.
“They’re better than what people are putting out there about them, that, ‘Oh, they’re not very talented or they’re not going to play, or this, that,’ ” Jackson said. “I’m tired of hearing that. That’s a very good football team, with very good players.”
Jackson is convinced that the Chargers will be just as hungry to end the Raiders’ playoffs aspirations as they were before they were eliminated from playoff contention last Sunday, in a lopsided loss to the Detroit Lions.
“They’re going to come with their guns a blazing,” Jackson said. “We’re going to see it all. You do everything you can to win the game. That’s what Norv’s about, and they’re not coming here doing nothing else. They’re coming to win, and whatever they think it takes to win, that’s what they’re going to do.”
The Raiders were in a similar situation last season, when they traveled to Kansas City for a game against a Chiefs team that had clinched the AFC West, with the Raiders playing for little more than a shot at going 8-8. That’s where the Chargers stand today, at 7-8 and a shot to reach .500.
Free safety Michael Huff said he expects the Chargers to be every bit as determined Sunday as the Raiders were that day against the Chiefs.
“This is a rival; they hate us and we hate them,” Huff said. “They want to spoil our playoff run. We are going to get their best shot and we wouldn’t expect nothing less.”

PRESSURE ON PALMER
Jackson engineered a trade for Palmer in October with games such as the one Sunday in mind.
The thinking is, Palmer has played in big games before, and he knows what it takes to pull it off.
“He has to,” Jackson said. “There’s no other alternative. This is a great opportunity to do it here at home. That’s why we made the trade, is to have this opportunity. If not, why do it? It’s about winning. And so we’ve got a chance to win a huge
football game this Sunday.”
Palmer isn’t fazed by Jackson’s lofty expectations.
“Pressure is part of the position,” Palmer said. “I’ve been playing it for a long time and understand and know that that doesn’t need to be said to me by the coach. I understand that.”
Palmer says everyone dreams of playing in big games such as the upcoming one Sunday. Beyond that, the dreams include playing in the postseason and winning the Super Bowl.
“These are why you play,” Palmer said. “These types of games, especially when you get to play them at home. These types of games are why you do what you do in February, March, April, May when nobody is watching. It’s why you stay up late at night watching film. This is why you do that, to be prepared. … This is a big moment for this team and our fans.”

LECHLER FULL CIRCLE
Punter Shane Lechler knew nothing other than seasons that ended with the Raiders in the playoffs early in his career.
The Raiders played in the AFC Championship Game in 2000, his rookie season, lost to the Patriots in the Tuck Rule Game the next season, and advanced to the Super Bowl in the 2002 season.
The past eight seasons yielded nothing more than eight victories in any one year. Hence, Lechler cautioned his teammates once the Raiders reached 7-4 that there was plenty of work to do, to keep grinding.
“I knew, when we were 7-4, that was just 7-4,” Lechler said. “We hadn’t done anything yet.”
Now, he is hopeful of the Raiders snapping their long drought.
“Everybody in the locker room wants to win and wants to win now,” Lechler said. “My situation is, hopefully I get to see this thing go full circle. I had it great when I first got here. … Just to see it go full circle would be good.”

JUST A THOUGHT
Strange how things turn out. If the Raiders win Sunday but still don’t win the AFC West, they would need the Cincinnati Bengals to lose, just to have a shot at the second wild-card spot.
Yes, the same Bengals team that traded Palmer to the Raiders in late October. As if Palmer needed more reason to root against the Bengals.
Conversely, the Bengals want the Raiders to miss the playoffs so that the 2012 first-round pick they received as part of the compensation they received from the Raiders yields a higher selection.
If the Raiders are to make the playoffs, then the Bengals wouldn’t mind seeing the Raiders make it to the AFC Championship Game because the 2013 second-round pick the Raiders gave to the Bengals in the Palmer trade would turn into a first-rounder.

    “Conversely, the Bengals want the Raiders to miss the playoffs so that the 2012 first-round pick they received as part of the compensation they received from the Raiders yields a higher selection.”

    ———————————-

    Honestly, the pick isn’t going to fluctuate THAT much if we win and lose the 1st round playoff game. It would be MUCH more beneficial to the Bengals if they saw us reach the AFC Championship game, as they would be receiving a 1st round pick. So Steve, I think they would be more concerned with that.

  11. ChrisinNC Says:

    Sounds like you’re trying to force a little added animosity/drama between the two teams.

    Also, per the NFL Network, the Dischargers had to cancel practice today. Seems they had plenty of helmets and pads but no BALLS!

  24. LA to TheBay Says:

    Ford, Moore, and Jones all back gives us an added dimension.

    That being said, the goal should be to bludgeon the life outta SD with some fierce running by Mike Bush.

    By the way, 89 yards away from his first 1000 yard season for Mr. Bush.

    DHB could also get 1000, though less probable.

    ‘Tarzan’s chimpanzee’ Cheetah dies aged 80 in Florida

    A chimpanzee who apparently starred in Tarzan films in the 1930s has died at the age of 80, according to the sanctuary where he lived.

    The Suncoast Primate Sanctuary in Palm Harbor said he died on Saturday of kidney failure.

    He had acted alongside Johnny Weissmuller and Maureen O’Sullivan in Tarzan films from 1932-34, it claimed.

    The animal loved fingerpainting and watching football, and was “soothed by Christian music”.

    “this is what happens when you play for the Raiders”
    LOL, no penalties are what happens when you line up off sides,and when you have unnecessary roughness penalties week after week. The refs will keep a team under the microscope when there is a pattern of abuse.

    You have to earn respect in this league,we cant just expect the refs to give this team the benefit of the doubt and then whine and complain when I’d say 95% of the calls are legit.

    The only “strange” call or lack thereof was when the instant replay machine “broke” and Hue didn’t even have a chance to challenge the play. I think the game was against the Dolphins but I could be wrong.

    On Carson Palmer being a “gunslinger” , to hell with that. Brett Farve was a so called gunslinger that would fluck up his team with his interceptions, its just that nobody had the ball to tell him to tighten up his game when he was with the Packers. Look what happend when he was traded to the Jets, the fans/media and his teammates would have none of it. Palmer needs to get this under control.

    But when it comes to the playoffs, you got to grab the highest seed you can. Even as the #4 seed, you never know, the Jets could get the #6 seed and win two games and than all of sudden we are hosting an AFC championship in Oakland.

    Vincent Jackson (groin) did not participate in Chargers practice Wednesday.
    With the Bolts down to playing for pride, there’s a pretty good chance Jackson will sit out this weekend after looking greatly diminished against the Lions on Christmas Eve. Headed for another contract showdown, Jackson will end 2011 with 58 catches for 1,077 yards and eight touchdowns in 15 games if he doesn’t suit up Sunday.

    Updating a previous item, Ryan Mathews missed Chargers practice Wednesday due to a calf injury.
    It wasn’t a rest day. Coach Norv Turner said after the workout he’s “hopeful” Mathews will practice later in the week. Mathews has often struggled playing at less than 100 percent, so this is a potentially significant development for Oakland. Mathews has been the Chargers’ best offensive player recently.

    I think Hue is a good coach, not his fault his best offensive player (DMAC) is injury prone and his starting QB went down with a broken collar bone. We as Raider fans should consider ourselves lucky to even be in a position to get into the playoffs much less the division title.

    When your entire offense is built around your star running back of course it’s going to sputter when he goes down.

    What we need of course is a real DC, not this micky mouse isht that Chuck brings every game day.

    U.S. RECEIVES RECORD DEMAND FOR ITS BONDS UNDER 0BAMA, HELPING THE DEFICIT |

    Bloomberg News reports that the U.S. government received record demand for its bonds in 2011, “pushing longer-maturity treasuries to their best performance since 1995 in a sign that President 0bama may have little difficulty” financing the budget deficit. The European debt crisis is driving investors to buy U.S. assets, allowing the government to get an “all-time high bid-to-cover ratio of 9.07 for $30 billion of four-week bills it auctioned on Dec. 20 even though they pay zero interest.” Despite the GOP’s factually-challenged fear-mongering about the deficit, the high demand for U.S. bonds are “helping to contain borrowing costs and making it cheaper as a percentage of gross domestic product to finance deficits than when the nation last had budget surpluses.”

    DMac’s foot injury is a mystery for the ages. From a simple sprain that was nothing when it happened, to a season-ending major.
    No one is talking, the only thing we know is from the guess of the gaze in the trainer’s eyes.
    The look is not there, no words are exchanged, not even a nod, maybe Hue is looking for some kind a wink or an eyebrow lift.
    Nothing is said, the puzzle continues.

    Why didn’t the Raiders put him on IR?

    Got to give it to the team, though, for managing to get this far without DMac, and I thought they couldn’t go very far without him. Is there one more victory left in them?

    Bootlicker, you’re such a coward. I knew it.

    To put DMC on IR would have been dumb.

    If the Raiders make the Playoffs, there’s still a chance he plays a game or three.

    Any chance of DMC coming back this year (including potential Playoff games) means he needs to be kept with team, and not IR’d.

    If DMC plays in the Playoffs, the Raiders will go far.

    Handicapping the Raid’s playoff chances.

    Chargers at Raiders: Betting line Oakland -3

    Raids handled Chargers on both sides of the LOS in earlier meeting. Despite what Steve Cork thinks, Bolts do not figure to lay down for this one. Raids have more to play for, but Rivers dangerous against an Oakland secondary that always seems to give up the big play.

    EDGE: OAKLAND

    Chiefs at Broncos: Betting line Denver -3.5

    KC should play hard for Romeo, but they haven’t shown the offensive firepower necessary to beat Denver on the road. Teblow might implode and Chefs might escape with a win, but this figures to be a relatively low scoring affair that favors the home team.

    EDGE: DENVER

    Ravens at Bengals: Betting line Baltimore -2.5

    Baltimore needs this game badly and will go all out. Problem is they haven’t played well on the road and their offense is sputtering. Boldin being out doesn’t help. Should be another low scoring affair with the Raven defense severely testing Dalton.

    EDGE: BALTIMORE

    Titans at Texans: Betting line Tennessee -2.5

    With Schaub and something to play for, Houston would be a healthy favorite. With Yates and nothing to play for, the Titans come in as small favorites. Despite this being a meaningless game for Houston, it is somewhat important that they demonstrate some cohesiveness on offense. Probably won’t be enough to knock out the Titans though. X-Factor will be Chris Johnson who appeared to mail it in last week.

    EDGE: TENNESSEE

    Jets at Dolphins: Betting line Miami -2

    Jets have more to play for, but Rex’s boys are done. Bush is running well, Moore is doing a very good job. Fin defense is superior to that of the overrated Jets. Only way Jets win is if Miami completely tanks or Ryan pulls a miracle motivation job.

    EDGE: MIAMI

    Hue was DESTINED to be a head coach. We are the PERFECT team for him to showcase what he brings to the table. For every 1 thing the guy does wrong he does 9 things right…I expect more from a Raider fan, which is warranted because some of my fellow fans are VERY knowledgeable about this team, its history and the NFL and football in general..Its just the jagoffs in here scare those guys away because they don’t want to deal with it, which is understandable..However, If you sift through some of the crap, there are about 10 guys on here worth talking to..

    +++++++++++++

    As much as I love Coach Woodson, he needs to keep doing what he is doing for a about 3-4 more years before he can take on being the D-Coordinator. This is his first year too, and I am sure he has learned one hellova lot..He’s still got a way to go before he can take over an entire Defense..Which is just fine..If he is in it for the long haul, just imagine how much info he could glean from his old coach Dick LeBeau…He has plenty of time before Hue promotes him..

  251. eastoaklandraider Says:

    I’m starting the Rod Woodson for D coord Campaign

  252. MikieG Says:

    Ha Ha!
    Too early for that. I want someone who has had more than 1 year as a coach, before I let him drive an entire defense.

  255. eastoaklandraider Says:

    Hue only has been an O coord for one year an got a HEAD COACHING job with all the experience Rod has had as a player I think that qualifies him.

  256. MikieG Says:

    Your right, I don’t think he can be worse than Chuck B..but I want someone wayyy better than Chuck B…Dennis Thurman comes to mind from the Jets (whom Rex wouldn’t give us permission to talk to last year)…Jack Del Rio would be fantastic, and so would Steve Spagnuolo, especially since he would be re-uniting with his guy Mike Waufle…would be nice to have a tandem that coached up a defense that defeated an Undefeated Patriots team in the SB…

    The Oakland Raiders tried out six players, according to a league source with knowledge of the situation.

    Among the more notable names the Raiders brought in: former Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Jason Hill and former New York Giants and Minnesota Vikings quarterback Rhett Bomar.

    Hill was cut by the Jaguars earlier this season and Bomar was cut by the Vikings after being arrested for driving under the influence.

    The Raiders also tried out former St. Louis Rams, Washington Redskins and Tennessee Titans defensive end Hall Davis, former Philadelphia Eagles cornerback Jack Ikegwuonu and defensive back Curtis Taylor.

    If that doesn’t say it all, I don’t know what does. Some dumb MF’rs on the defensive side of the ball kids…In my world it comes down to one thing and one thing only..discipline. This defense doesn’t have it and we have seen the residue of that circumstance all season long and for the past decade.

    A lot of times preseason just amounts to getting ready for the season, the w/l dont mean squat. But when the preseason highlites your glaring weaknesses, there is much for concern.

    And I think that is what we saw. Not so much the w/l, but the horrid play that was exhibitted. It was clear and obvious we had major problems on the defensive side of the ball. And it was evident it would carry over into the regular season. And the preseason meant a helluva alot in that regard. What you saw is what you got.

    I dont worry about the offense in the pre-season cause you dont want to play all your hands, and JC wasn’t terrible by any stretch. But in past years, we’ve seen awful o lines and new where that was going.

    So all in all, it woulda been nice to see the defense corrected, the penalties could nail us yet, and the lack of improvement is alarming. The Offense will be fine as CP and company get more in tune.

  286. raidertalk Says:

    Yeah would not mind having JC around next year as a backup QB. If not Pryor might be able to give us a dual threat once he has a whole training camp and knows the playbook–Anything but boller as BUQB.

  287. raidertalk Says:

    On Defense we need another taller CB our cbs seemed to play worse against the bigger Wrs.
    We also need to look at a replacement for that we case ease-in for Seymore. Preferably a Huge run stuffer. Free-safety could also use depth.
    At WLB we could also use a good cover-guy maybe for passing situations to compliment Curry, who has done pretty well pursuing the run.
    If our Offense stays on track and improves (maybe at RG and RT) then all we would need is to get a little better on Defense to go further in the Playoffs or at least earn a home game/bye going in.

    Honestly, if you all have some kind of personal beef with each other, please, go somewhere and settle it. NOT HERE. At the top of my screen, in the url box, it says “OAKLAND RAIDERS”. That’s what we should be talking about here. You know, if I saw this crap on some other team’s blog, I would shake my head and feel sorry for their pathetic state of circumstances. And yet, I don’t have to visit another team’s blog. It’s right here. Why don’t you all try thinking about more than just yourselves when you post on this blog? Maybe realize that the world doesn’t revolve around you and your grade school childish grudges.

    On Defense we need another taller CB our cbs seemed to play worse against the bigger Wrs.

    ********************************************************

    Always thought that Al would have made a move to draft Sean Smith out of Utah a couple of years ago. Big (6′3), fast, rangy corner that is playing very well for the Dolphins right now.

    It would be awesome if all the reports of McFadden were false. That all along he was secretly practicing and ends up on the field Sunday ready to propel us thru the playoffs!! The biggest smoke and mirrors dupe in history…

  297. RaiderRockstar Says:

    Quarterback Carson Palmer is getting his first taste of what it’s like playing for a Raiders team that always finishes at, or near, the top of the league in penalties.
    “As those flags get going in games, I always have guys come up to me on the sideline saying, ‘This is what happens when you play for the Raiders,’ ” Palmer said.

    ***

    the loser mentality hasn’t left the locker room?

    “whoa is me. we wear silver & black so the refs are out for us, regardless of what happens on the field”

    “hey Carson. aren’t you glad you got traded to an undisciplined football team?”

    this crap has to stop and Tommy Kelly saying it ain’t no big deal paying $100 per penalty flag makes my stomach turn. Where is Hue Jackson at?

  298. RaiderRockstar Says:

    Free safety Michael Huff said he expects the Chargers to be every bit as determined Sunday as the Raiders were that day against the Chiefs.
    “This is a rival; they hate us and we hate them,” Huff said. “They want to spoil our playoff run. We are going to get their best shot and we wouldn’t expect nothing less.”

    That’s what happens when a team is depending on better teams to lose in order to get into the playoffs.

    Raiders might get in, but I don’t see them getting past the Ravens, Steelers, or Patriots. Not talented enough yet. IF it happens, it would be nice to see them win the division, I guess. But it would have been better if they could have won it without it coming down to another team losing. Raiders still need to learn to win the games that matter.

  300. RaiderRockstar Says:

    Palmer isn’t fazed by Jackson’s lofty expectations.
    “Pressure is part of the position,” Palmer said. “I’ve been playing it for a long time and understand and know that that doesn’t need to be said to me by the coach. I understand that.”
    Palmer says everyone dreams of playing in big games such as the upcoming one Sunday. Beyond that, the dreams include playing in the postseason and winning the Super Bowl.
    “These are why you play,” Palmer said. “These types of games, especially when you get to play them at home. These types of games are why you do what you do in February, March, April, May when nobody is watching. It’s why you stay up late at night watching film. This is why you do that, to be prepared. … This is a big moment for this team and our fans.”

    Carson Palmer is gonna come up big against SD this week, I have a feeling. Denny Moore killed them in that first game. He’ll likely be doubled. I think it’s DHB’s turn

    On the whole, the Raiders played pretty well this season when they didn’t have anything on the line yet.

    Their lack of both effort and focus in the Miami, GB, and Detroit games – games they went into knowing exactly what was at stake – is unacceptable, and won’t fly in the playoffs.

    If kc play like they did against the pack and hate to say it us. Then i see them going into denver and beating them. They would of had our number had not been for two blocked FGs. But i think KC will win because they want crennel to be their head coach and a win for him will prove he is able to keep the job, like derrick johnson said he is a players coach and they will play their hearts out for him.

    I know some on here would prefer to win the division and host a playoff game to either the Ravens or Steelers. I am not one of them. We have a legit shot as a wildcard to go to Houston and beat them. We did it once with Shaub playing and we can do it again against Yates. As the Raiders get better and truly build the bully in coming years I will welcome teams like the Steelers and Ravens for a playoff game. I try to look at the big picture. The best thing for this team is to keep growing and gaining confidence. What better way to do that than beat the Texans and win our 1st playoff game in a long time. We are not yet in the elite class of teams yet. (I stress yet, because we will be soon)

    Winning a playoff game= Credability. Which in turn lures people like Jack del Rio and Steve Spags along with worthwhile free agents IMO. Heck, We may not even have to overpay for them just because they can see something speacial is developing in Oakland. Just sayin.

  333. Deja vu Says:

    Orton isn’t all that great, but if he can control his int problem i don’t see why he can’t help the team win.

    He’s not gonna light the league on fire, but his stats are not as bad the last 2 games as they were mid season.

    VS GB: 104.1 RTNG 299 YDS No Picks
    VS OAK: 71.1 RTNG 300 YDS 2 Picks and 1 TD

    Denvers secondary is banged up and if he can have a game like GB, KC can overcome. I’m not saying he’ll light it up, just saying no turnovers from Orton and pound the rock.

    Dawkins, Quinton Carter may be out and have to rely on back up safeties. Also Chris Harris CB has a neck injury.

    Orton is going to beat the breaks off those rented mules. If Orton can’t get up for this game (like I’m sure he will) than he doesn’t belong in the NFL.

    We’ll handle the Dolts as long as the lads turn up to play. No more slack jobs. Having Ford and Jones back is big. Huff too.

    Honestly don’t know.I work with two ’skins and rams fans if that helps!

    Never see any nfl gear being worn in the north-east.EnglandRaider might tell a different story down south.

  382. djohnnyg Says:

    I don’t blame the “experts” picking SD to win. Raiders have brought that on themselves.

    Kurt Warner doesn’t pick Oakland to lose cuz he hates them, he does it cuz he sees what he sees. No “expert” wants to be wrong with their picks. That being said, the Raiders start changing perception when they start winning consistently.

    Nobosy doubts the Raiders have the firepower to win any game. Heck, alot of folks thought the Raiders would beat GB…Kurt Warner was one of them. Then u get burned, and you stop picking them.

    With Ford and DMoore back, Palmer has all his weapons (except DMAC). This team can win a shoot out if Palmer plays like he can.

    It’s all on Palmer. Even if the Raider D plays poorly, Palmer has the toys to outscore ‘em.

    So much on Palmer in this one. He has a chance to prove the doubters wrong.

    Don’t worry my friends I always watch the game on the net.Just I’d rather watch it on a bigger screen.

    Bcz24,

    I don’t see Orton having too much trouble against back up safeties. If Dawkins is on the sideline in sweats, would be huge! So my point is… if Orton can’t get it done with 2 starting safeties out and possible starting CB out than he shouldn’t be in there and they may give Stanzi a shot since they don’t have anything to play for. I think Orton will be fine though and he’ll do just enough to get a W.

  385. Chris in NY Says:

    I’d like to see Jones get about 50% of the touches at RB until the 4th quarter. Late in games when the D is tired is when Bush seems to be at his best.

    I think we could also use benefit from a home run from Jones at some point, as long as he gets enough touches to make that a real possibility.

  386. hwnrdr Says:

    By the way…are we close to selling out yet?

    Kc has as much to play for in Donktown as the Raiders had to play for Last year in Kc. ( last game )… It’s a division foe…don’t know where some of you guys are getting the Kc and San Diego have nothing to play for…..

  390. CanuckRaider Says:

    The Chargers defense is nothing like it used to be in the steroid man days. We’ll grind them with the run and Carson will light them up on play-action. Chucky B’s bunch just have to do their jobs.

    Neilb: Good to see you picked the right team!! Also good to see Oakland squeaking by Sh!ttsburgh in the popularity contest… Its ironic that the most popular team is NE… Since they derived their name from battling the ‘Red Coats’… Guess a couple hundred years makes people forget…lol

  400. Chris in NY Says:

    The Dolphins do seem to have a broad fanbase for some reason. Not really sure why, but even up here in NY, Miami is one of those teams that you’re used to seeing colors for, even though they haven’t done much in a pretty long time. I can only guess that it’s leftover from the Marino chucking the ball all over the place days.

    Other out-of-state teams popular here would be the Steelers, Cowboys and Raiders. The 49ers were real popular back in the late 80s/early 90s, but that’s tailed off in the last decade. Patriots and Eagles have some followers but that’s more because of proximity and people who came from New England and Philly than anything else. Same with the Bills. Oddly, Buffalo is the only team that actually plays its games in NY but they really don’t have all that much support on the Eastern side of the state. The ones that do are usually Western NY natives.

    As far as fans rooting for teams it all comes down to winning.

    I don’t live anywhere near Cali. and I embraced the Raiders cuz they were only team that had the guts to stand up to Pittsburgh…and WIN. Once you’re locked onto the Raiders you’re in for life, but it started becuz of winning.

    For alot of guys, their team is part of their identity with their friends etc. and noone wants to lock on to a losing team unless it’s a regional thing and it’s a family tradition etc.

    Winning solves everything. It’s just the way it is. Raiders had the winning PLUS the whole bad boy thing as a big bonus.

    Its funny that it happened in NY too. One of the biggest things I hate about Sh!ttsburgh fans is when their team REALLY sucked in the early 80’s, they all jumped ship and suddenly became Niner and Ill-gals fans.. Bandwagon jumpers!! I have absolutely NO respect for someone who has no loyalty to a team when they lose, then when they are doing well later on, that team is the ‘greatest ever’!!! Give me f@cking break..

    No matter what my Raiders do (2-14 for instance), I fly my colors proud and am quick to jump on ANYBODY who disses them!!

  405. RaiderRockstar Says:

    the Raider are 2-0 against Kyle Orton this year.

    0-2 against Cassel & Tebow.

    Orton sucks and I was hoping Denver would sign him to a contract extension over this last offseason and trade Tebow for peanuts. Unfortunately, we know things didn’t work out that way

    I didn’t know that any Charger fans existed (even in San Diego)! Over the past two decades, the biggest bandwagon fans have jumped on with either Cowboys, Patriots or Steelers — but then, they’ve just as quickly jumped off. I just hope we make it into the playoffs – would LOVE to see the Silver and Black get another crack at Pittsburgh!

  411. MikieG Says:

    KC has a huge advantage that they didn’t have last time against the Donkeys…Kyle Orton knows that Donkey offense AND Defense inside and out and has practiced against them all season..

    I like his name and the toughness factor he might bring. But if this is the case, is everyone content with staying in a 4-3 defense?
    That’s the conundrum: Del Rio or Spagnulo are great coordinators but if we get one of those guys, that means we stick with 4-3.

    I am personally intrugued by a switch to the 3-4, but we would need to bring in a top notch coordinator like Mike Nolan or Wade Phillips or Dom Capers…or an up and coming disciple of one of those guys…

    ++++++++++++

    Denver may know Kyle….but they don’t know as much about the KC Defense and Offense as Kyle knows about the Denver Defense and Offense, down to every audible and shift on both sides of the ball. Sure they are going to change it up, but that means Denver is going to have to do alot more thinking and alot less reacting..Kind of like what happened to us in the SuperBowl…and we had the whole year to make those changes..

  417. MikieG Says:

    I hate to pontificate to elaborately as to how the Chefs are going to win, because I am positive they will.

    My only real concern is us beating the Chargers….If we can’t beat these guys at home, with everything at stake, we don’t deserve the playoffs anyway..This is what the playoffs are going to be like, and if we can’t beat a team that we steamrolled in their hizzy a few weeks ago, then we ain’t gonna do squat against a Steeler team that would come rolling into Oaktown.

    If we win however, I see us beating some Steeler A$$ if we can stop their run Game..

    I would rather have Spags or Jack in here and stick with a 4-3 instead of experimenting with a 3-4…we do not have the personnel for a 3-4 and it takes years to get those guys, and even if we did have the personnel, it takes at least a year to get good at it..It would be like rebuilding when we don’t have to..I say we stick with the 4-3 and bring in a capable D-coordinator and roll with what we know.

  431. 2romes Says:

    Please, have D.Moore run upfield on punt returns. I know he wants to take it to the house every play but a little better field position will help the Raiders start off feeling more secure about running plays that attack the offense rather than just getting breathing room to start.

  432. No Mas Diamante Says:

    Stick with the 4-3 and run your hybrids every now and then. and send Mclian to live with Ray Lewis for the off season and learn what it takes to be a real mlb, and a man. i still have faith in Mclain, he needs to grow up and improve his strenght and conditioning. he needs to be a freak.

  433. No Mas Diamante Says:

    Again – Denver D is average without waters. They will struggle. Mark it down

  434. J Hill Says:

    I don’t even see how this is a debate.

    We don’t have a solid pass rushing DE, and our MLB is a 3-4 ILB.

    4-3 OLBs need to be able to cover. Not Curry or Wimbley’s strong suit.

    Houston, Seymour, and Bryant are PERFECT 3-4 DEs.

    Curry, Wimbley, and Trevor Scott are better suited to play OLB in the 3-4.

    Tommy Kelly and ShoNasty can get us decent draft picks.

  435. No Mas Diamante Says:

  436. raiderinparadise Says:

    back from vacation … supo raider nation!?

    crazy game past Sunday.

    Flags are useless to talk about, they are a part of this team, its unreal.

    Palmer is skecthy but overall has the ability to get the deep ball set-up to kill teams. Therefore he is the “worrisome bomber”

    Denarius Moore: welcome back … SD was all Moore Bush, hopefully again those 2 step up.

    Defense: Still have no idea what to say. But force turnovers and im ok with it.

  437. J Hill Says:

    Did I forget that I was a 3-4 guy? lol

    ——————————————————

    LOL!

    We do not have the personel for a 4-3.

    We need a DE and a NT at a minimum if we are going to keep the 4-3.

    Wimbley should probably move to RDE full time.

    Move Curry to WLB and let him terrorize the QB and stay the hell outta coverage.

    Sign an OLB that can cover.

    Or simply use our talent as it should be and let them play more natural postions.

    But I know you knew most of this already!

  438. luvmarvhub Says:

    Yes, the $100 penalty pot is a joke.

    Instead, offenders of the worst sort, for each penalty, should have to take the whole defensive or offensive unit(includes non-starters) out to dinner at a really nice place and pick up the tab.

  439. YoungAmerican Says:

    The Raiders don’t have the personnel for either system to be effective, that’s the problem.

    Their 4-3 WLB can’t cover, but can’t rush the passer either.

    Their MLB is a 3-4 guy.

    They don’t have a 4-3 or 3-4 NT.

    Seymour is the only sure fit for a 3-4 system.

    No playmaking 4-3 RDE. No playmaking 3-4 OLB.

    Bottom line? To make either system work they need similar things. They need a guy who can plug gaps on the defensive line, and a big-time pass rusher who can make impact plays from the blind side.
    Wimbley works in both systems as a SLB.

  440. raiderinparadise Says:

    Getting Shaugnessy back next year will be huge. Lamar Houston hit a “sophmore slump”

    Huff can give all his money to Lance Briggs for us to apoligize for this year.

    Travis Goethal … get well soon.

  441. YoungAmerican Says:

    Seymour and Wimbley are the only sure fits, I should say. And Wimbley is very limited in terms of pass rush moves.

  442. The Big Banana Says:

    Good points, J Hill. Our LB core is not well suited for the 4-3. However, I can see our DLine doing well in a 4-3 when healthy, and in fact we *have* seen it.

    As we all know, it’s all about pressure and when that Dline is on, the D looks good. When they’re off, we’re exposed.

    But part of that is the coordinator putting our LBs in bad situations…like having them cover megatron. Also, this D absolutely melts down in the 4th quarter and I put this on him as well. Be interested to know how much yardage we give up in the 4th. Anyone have some time on their hands? I’m sure it’s lopsided.

  443. raiderinparadise Says:

    No Vincent Jackson Sunday. That is good.

  444. RaiderRockstar Says:

    No McFadden. Anyone surprised?

    Yeah the good part about us having to play Pittsburgh if we make the playoffs is Palmer knows how to play Pitt.

    Still no sign of Jason Campbell. Might be spending his time seeing which teams need a quarterback for 2012.

    What training crew/doctors tells a coach not to IR a player who will miss more than 70 days after 7 games of the season?

    Horrible use of roster space.

  453. J Hill Says:

    YA,

    I would disagree with on the OLBs.

    I think Curry would be playmaker on the LOS as an OLB.

    Wimbley has limited pass rush moves, but that is what he does best.

    Trevor Scott would be decent depth. I thought he actually played pretty well as a 4-3 OLB a couple of year ago.

    Agree we need to find a NT for the 3-4. Would argue that it is also a need in the 4-3 with Henderson clearly on his way out.

  457. DKnight007 Says:

    If they stick with the 4-3, than Del Rio or Spagnolo are the two DC’s the Raiders better look and hire one of the two.

  458. YoungAmerican Says:

    I don’t see it with Curry. Very undersized for a 3-4 OLB. Never played the position before. Pass rushing has never been something he’s good at. The 3-4 would help keep him out of coverage, but he’s not the impact player that 3-4 defenses look for on the blind side. If they switch to a 3-4, he might be best suited inside next to McClain.

  459. J Hill Says:

    Ok, so …..

    If Taiwan Jones balls through this playoff run, does that open the door for DMac to be traded?

  460. J Hill Says:

    YA,

    I thought Curry was an OLB outta college?

  461. DKnight007 Says:

    Raiders need to prep, study, and play hard and execute on Sunday!

    This is a playoff game for the Raiders! Take it to the Chargers and play smart, physical football for 60 minutes.

    Win the battle at the trenches!!

  462. YoungAmerican Says:

    Curry was a 4-3 SLB at Wake Forest.

  463. raiderinparadise Says:

    all 6 wide is a great help. DHB, MOORE, FORD is a nasty matchup problem for SD let alone anybody. Should also help get Bush and the o-line some help in the run-looks.

  464. J Hill Says:

    What do you think about Trevor Scott at OLB?

  465. MistaBrown Says:

    I think it opens up the possibility of that or maybe restructuring his contract based on a 6 game season.

  467. YoungAmerican Says:

    Trevor Scott makes the most sense out of anyone on the roster as a blindside 3-4 OLB. Is he a free agent this season, though? Isn’t he the same draft class as Tyvon Branch?

    R Ryan already failed with that attempt and Scott has bulked up for DE

    I don’t know, he may be.

    Lito wont have to worry about Bowe, Breaston or Copper.

    did rookie 1st rounder Baldwin even play? was he active last week?

    If it’s true that VJAX aint playing, Lito will be assigned to Floyd, Brown and/or Crayton

    I’d like to see Jones get about 50% of the touches at RB until the 4th quarter. Late in games when the D is tired is when Bush seems to be at his best.

    I think we could also use benefit from a home run from Jones at some point, as long as he gets enough touches to make that a real possibility

    ^^^^^^^
    Get Jones involved in the screen game as well as Reece and Bush!

    If Jones can get 3 catches on screen plays and if has two blockers in front of him, he will break one of those 3 touches for a big play!

  487. DKnight007 Says:

    The Raiders need to PROTECT the football on offense and win the turnover battle.

    Play hard and within themselves and get the job done at home and finish the regular season on a high note.

    The Raider DEFENSE will need to play solid and stop the Chargers from the start of the game!

    Do NOT allow the Chargers offense to do what they want from the start.
