Anyone else surprised at Chimdi’s demotion on the depth chart to Pat Lee?
=========================================
Pat Lee was drafted by Reggie McKenzie and played very well in a Super Bowl. Checkwa was drafted by Al Davis and has done little if anything. Not alot to be surprised really.

It is a good thing we have 2 spots available on the roster.
That along with the 6 mil under cap, gives us some flexability if we need to make a pick up.
I like what I see out of the org, making some good business decisions.
August 9th, 2012 at 1:46 pm
Seymour,I’m not trying to start something,but lets stop this ‘Reggie drafted so and so when he was in GB’.Reggie may have recommended whom they drafted,but he didn’t run their draft.

Not even a broken leg could stop U.S. runner Manteo Mitchell from finishing the last 200 meters of his relay. With about half a lap of the 4 x 400-meter relay preliminaries to go, Mitchell felt a pop in his left leg. He finished the lap at 46.1 seconds, for a total of 2 minutes, 58.87 seconds, which led Team USA to tie for first with the Bahamas. After the race, a doctor informed him he had broken his left fibula. “I figured it’s what almost any person would’ve done in that situation,” Mitchell said.

Monday section 249, anybody close?

August 9th, 2012 at 2:09 pm
Lonyae Miller getting alot of snaps Monday? What have you seen from him during practice?
Impressive back. Runs hard, he’s decisive, deceptively fast and a bruiser.
In your opinion, which rookie will make the biggest impact on the team?
Juron Criner this season.
How big of a step forward has Khalif Barnes taken in camp?
Khalif looks real comfortable in the zone-blocking scheme, which he played in when he was with the Jaguars. He isn’t jumping offsides much, he is doing real well in the one-on-one drills. Impressive so far.
Pat Lee a roster lock, Cork?
Getting closer and closer to being one, yes. Been impressive throughout camp.
Anything special glimpsed from D. Hamilton, K. Burnett or C. Powell so far? All 3 are intriguing as UDFAs, especially Hamilton
Love Hamilton and Burnett. Haven’t seen much of note from Chaz Powell, though. Could see one or two making the opening-day roster or practice squad, no doubt.
Does Schmitt’s arrival mean the end of Tonga?
More than likely, it appears.
Who do you sneaks in at the bottom of the depth chart at WR?
Rod Streater, for sure. Final spot between Derek Carrier and Eddie McGee
Conroy Black a UDFA that makes the team? Aaron Henry?
Not sold on either making the team just yet.
Nathan Stupar, Christo or Crawford make team?
I could see all three making the team. It’s not likely, though. Bilukidi has the edge over the two others for now.
How’s Palmer’s chemistry with DHB? He always talks about good chemistry with Moore, but never mentions DHB
That’s because it’s a given based on Heyward-Bey’s production. No problem in that regard.
Biggest weakness on offense?
For now, I say it’s the lack of a proven pass-catching tight end. It’s up to Brandon Myers and/or David Ausberry to step up and fill that void.
Any camp players under the radar that might explode on to the scene
Dominique Hamilton, Pat Lee.

Al has drafted some very good players as well. He has also drafted some not so good ones. So has every GM in the league….even the great ones.
I think “overall” Al has a pretty solid track record of drafting good talent. Did the org always bring ‘em along the best way? Maybe not, but even on our current roster there are more than a few Al picks that are solid..imo.

I’m not a Pesimist at all but lets remember that this D is going up against a Greg Knapp offense that is without Jones, Moore, now Goodson and probably a hesitant & sparingly used DMC. Along with a bunch of unproven WR’s & TE’s.
As always I have faith, and like all of you’s for the right reasons this year but, lets be real and not hope for gangbusters right out of the gate.
The pieces are in place for something special, how often does anyone do it over night?
Ya the Effin 9ers did last year and the Lions the year before so it CAN happen!
Let’s enjoy the presason without godly expectations and perhaps the team we all believe can show up, does so when it counts.

Today is really the first day of football, in my eyes.
RGIII should be interesting, see if he gets any contact. Didn’t absorb contact well in college.
The Bears-Donks, we get to watch our division title holders hopefully start of the year awfully, and get to watch Soup and Bush play under some new lights.
Other games will have some storylines as well.

—————
First year under a new coach is unpredictable, but I can’t wait to see a modern, multiple defense
Do we have the right personnel? Maybe. Shaughnessy could be a beast if healthy and we have some interesting linebackers, maybe McClain makes the leap this year.
Lots of questions at corner but I feel pretty good about our safeties. Huff & Branch have been solid, maybe they’ll reach the next level this year
Offensively, lots of question marks as well. What kind of chemistry does Palmer have with his receivers and maybe more importantly, do we have a legit starting TE? Someone has to emerge from the group.
Our O line at least has some answers – we know Veldheer and Wiz are young, potential Pro Bowlers. Carlisle is stopgap.
Preseason will give us a look at chemistry, but I don’t think we’re going to know what this team or coaching staff is made of until we get to week 3 or 4
If things go right and McFadden and Moore hold up we could be looking at playoffs, interested to see how Manning does with the Donks

Wheeler has looked very solid, Rolando needs to show us in games that he’s lookin’ to beast on every play. We need that leadership from the MLB.

I’m wondering why Huff hasn’t made the switch to corner, I keep hearing about his coverage
I’d feel better if he locked down one side and DVD, Bartell, etc. battled it out for the other. Loser gets the nickle
Guess Mitchell isn’t ready yet to be an every down guy or Chekwa isn’t versatile enough to make the switch
And when is the Pryor at QB experiment going to end? Hopefully Carson can give us another 4 or 5 years, he’d be sitting anyway. Might as well run with the TEs
Athletically he could be the next Antonio Gates, holla
August 9th, 2012 at 3:53 pm

Dude, if healthy, don’t worry bout Bartell..he’s big and physical and will show up imo. I think Huffy has good closing speed, so they keep him out there for that reason, but he is decent at CB. Pryor will show us on Monday what he has, maybe a few hiccups, but he will run and stiff arm guys all day. Freak of nature athlete
August 9th, 2012 at 4:02 pm
Gonna check out RG3, will report back in a bit.lol
August 9th, 2012 at 4:18 pm
RG3 bad hand-off for a turnover
August 9th, 2012 at 4:29 pm
Was RGIII under center for the fumble?
That’s the thing with these college QB’s these day (almost all of them), they are in shotgun so much of the time, that handing it off is actually something they have to learn to do.
August 9th, 2012 at 4:37 pm
Check this out. I’m listening to Chicago 670 AM (Sports station) to ‘Bears All Access’ and the guests are Bush and JC.
Lemme tell you it’s a total freaking Raiders and love fest..from both of them..including the host.
I even took some notes to share w/ u guys.
The host intro’d them and talked about covering the Bear Raider game last yr.
“You guys..coming from Oakland played in the infamous black hole. Let me tell you, you can say anything u want about Philadelphia and other places but the scariest place in the league BY FAR is the Oakland Coliseum. I’ve never been more scared and nervous at a stadium than I was walking down that tunnel.”
Bush: “They call it the black hole for a reason. The fans are great. Some guys when they leave a team say bad stuff about the team they came from but i’m not gonna say nothin bad about the Raiders or the organization or nothin. I loved it there. When you’re winning there aint no better place to be. The fans where those halloween masks and all that and they try and intimidate the other team and anybody with that team”.
Host: “Haaaah. It works” (laffter). Tell me Jason about your time in Oakland”.
JC: “It was great. I wouldn’t trade my experience there for the world. We had a good young team and we were heading for the playoffs for sure, but…we just came up short. I got injured..other guys went down and it hurt us. I loved it in Oakland but it’s just time to move on and make the best of this opportunity”.
There’s more i’ll tell u about…but they went on to talk about Al…(all positive) and it was just a big love fest.
There was more praise and respect for the Raiders on Chicago radio than i’ve ever heard from bay area media, and to come from two former Raiders…it was kind of weird.
Nothing but love and respect from JC and Bush toward the Raider org.
August 9th, 2012 at 4:40 pm
Right on DJ!
August 9th, 2012 at 4:47 pm
One of the things I came away with from the interview was JC and Bush acting like it was “cool” to be from the Raiders. They talked about Raider “mystique” being real and valid and spoke highly of “Mr. Davis” as both referred to him.
Seriously, you’d think they were just signed by Reggie and doing their first Raider presser…not Bears.
There was no laffing about Al or “dysfunctional” talk…complete opposite.
I have a new respect for how classy they both were and the host was cool as well.

August 9th, 2012 at 4:52 pm
Nob, forgot already about surrendering to the Beeeech Diggity?
You wrote that hilarious apology to all the bloggers you worship promising that you’d let me slap you around the blog without any response
Don’t worry, I know it’s hard to stay away from your master, the one and only

August 9th, 2012 at 4:55 pm
see i predicted it and he did it like a stupid little boring robot. i supposedly surrendered to him by telling the blog i would ignore him for their sake. and he “slaps me around”. and he’s my “master”. what a predictable moron. the same few things over and over. what a boring little gay guy.
August 9th, 2012 at 4:56 pm
now, b/c of so much “master/minion” talk, he has to go jerk off in the corner in his leather mask. poor little stupid guy.
August 9th, 2012 at 4:59 pm
So Nob, how do you explain to me and all of my Blog Brahs that you’re now backing out of your surrender pledge?
You remember – it’s the one that you posted on the blog for everyone to laugh at

here’s the shocker of the day–i blaze screeech dog and he runs off, mumbling something or other.
but here’s the true surprise: that idiot actually posted about the raiders earlier. and get this! it was a decently intelligent post. nothing too earth shattering but not bad. it made me think someone else signed in for him. weird. he should retire the S&M obsessed, lame 80’s-referencing, closeted gay weiner and dump character and be a normal. but it’s not in his ability to do it for long i fear.
or maybe he’s like a stupid-hero. he posts on here as someone else who talks raiders and then his head spins around and he becomes the lame-o screeech dog.
August 9th, 2012 at 5:23 pm
Alex Morgan is hot. Wish she had a bit bigger ta tas, but she still hot.
The Javelin thrower from Paraguay, Leryn Franco is the hottest woman in the Olympics by far though.
Lolo Jones is hot too!

August 9th, 2012 at 5:31 pm
DJ,
Great story and all, but didn’t you hear, there is a massive conspiracy and hatred towards the Raiders by the whole world and the media.
Any evidence to the contrary, will not be tolerated.
August 9th, 2012 at 5:31 pm
We need a pass rusher, a guy with speed & Burst who can get us double digit sacks.
I think Wheeler and Burris have pass rushing skills, but IMHO they undersized to be effective pass rushers. They are 4-3 LBs.
Shaughnessy is a strong guy, but he lacks speed and burst, and he has health issues since he was in college. I think he can get us double digit sacks, but IMO he is a Better fit at LE. He can play the run well, and he can rush the passer, but his strength is playing the run.

Looked ok.. But I haven’t seen that zip yet ..

Peyton Manning has a head like an oil drum. I have never seen anything like it.
August 9th, 2012 at 5:54 pm
Manning intercepted, but it wasn’t his fault. Ball was deflected by WR.
August 9th, 2012 at 5:55 pm
Yep.. Huge head… His helmet even looks huge
August 9th, 2012 at 5:55 pm
Let’s hope many manning drives end with a pick this year!

Bush fumbled.
August 9th, 2012 at 6:04 pm
LMAO. Bush. There ya go.
August 9th, 2012 at 6:04 pm
LOL at Bush.
Two carries were the first guy tackled him immediately, and a fumble.
August 9th, 2012 at 6:05 pm
Ted.. They didn’t look that impressive on that drive..
August 9th, 2012 at 6:05 pm
Raiders O-line made Mike Bush a millionaire.
August 9th, 2012 at 6:06 pm
It sure is good to be watching football. I love it.
But I must admit that I have it muted. The talking heads ruin it. Even the former players are just tools.
August 9th, 2012 at 6:09 pm
I mute the Tv too during Raider games and listen to the Raider broadcast or Sirius radio … A lot better
August 9th, 2012 at 6:11 pm
Jason Campbell and Michael Bush look pretty uninspiring thus far. I think we’ll be ok without them. Ha!
August 9th, 2012 at 6:12 pm
Soup looks exactly the same. I was hoping he would have a better showing.
August 9th, 2012 at 6:12 pm
Just want to gloat a little like everyone else. Manning is done. Plays bye him self and doesn’t know how to play with a team.
August 9th, 2012 at 6:18 pm
Bears better hope that Cutler stays healthy bcz JC might be a downgrade from Caleb Hanie.
Unfortunately, Manning looked good. Knows how to work in the pocket. Will make the Mule OL look better.
Too bad Vick didn’t break his hand.
August 9th, 2012 at 6:18 pm
Phyllis Rivers still isn’t taking care of the football.
only threw 5 passes, 1 of them an INT !
August 9th, 2012 at 6:19 pm

August 9th, 2012 at 6:21 pm

August 9th, 2012 at 6:27 pm
The thing that was most concerning so far in the Bronco’s game, is that when Manning was in he had all the time in the world to throw.
August 9th, 2012 at 6:28 pm
So we got a Horse face and an egghead in Denver?

Watching the Bronco’s feed of the game, and they reported that Soup is in a “battle” with Josh McCown so far in camp for the #2 job.
If you are losing “battles” to Josh McCown, you might have to rethink the whole thing.

perhaps you people can scout for Reggie and e-mail your recommendations to Raiders HQ ??

Plus he’s been outta the league for sometime and that INT wasn’t exactly his fault. Not a bad series for PM
August 9th, 2012 at 6:35 pm
That’s what I thought. Kind of hard to judge whether Manning looked good or inspired anyone from stats at MFL.com
August 9th, 2012 at 6:43 pm
The thing that was most concerning so far in the Bronco’s game, is that when Manning was in he had all the time in the world to throw.
================================================
Yep. The protection was very good. Manning’s footwork within the pocket is superb. He will slide around in the pocket or step up to avoid the rush. Knows where his guys are. Knows where the defenders are. Gets rid of the ball quickly when necessary.
Hope his arm falls off bcz he’s going to be trouble.
Hate the fkng Mules.
August 9th, 2012 at 6:53 pm
Another thing that sucks about Manning is he doesn’t have the melt downs like Rivers. When the pressure is on he keeps it professional.
August 9th, 2012 at 6:56 pm
its never about really big time plays for AlienHead … his command of the offense looks like it’s there.
i never doubted he’d come back and play well.
too bad he wont last more than 5 weeks. his neck will give out once he gets crunched a dozen times.
August 9th, 2012 at 6:57 pm
can’t judge any QB right now anyway … Brees was 1 for 4 for 4 yards… MAN HES TERRIBLE!
August 9th, 2012 at 7:00 pm
JFB,
it’s a well known fact that DMC made Campbell look GOOD all day long. dump offs dump offs dump offs.
August 9th, 2012 at 7:13 pm
Manning did have another pass go through the defenders hands and tipped than a Bronco came down with it, he was lucky that one wasn’t picked also. The one that got picked looked a lil behind his reciever and the defender made a good play on the ball, it wasn’t all Mannings fault. Maybe he’s lacking some zip, #wishfulthinking
August 9th, 2012 at 7:19 pm
He didn’t throw a long pass, maybe they will dink and dunk it this year

Randy Hanson’s first season as an assistant football coach at Cal Poly is possibly over before it ever really got started.
Hanson, who made headlines when he was an assistant coach for the Oakland Raiders in 2009, was arrested Sunday morning for his alleged involvement in an altercation in which he allegedly struck a person with a beer bottle.
Hanson, who was brought in to coach the Mustangs defensive backs in the secondary this past April, was suspended indefinitely Monday.
“All I can do right now is confirm that Coach Hanson has been suspended while we gather information on the incident,” Don Oberhelman, Cal Poly’s athletics director, wrote in an email Tuesday.
Hanson was reportedly arrested on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon after an altercation broke out the early morning hours of Sunday, Aug. 5, at Harry’s Nightclub & Beach Bar in Pismo Beach.
Police arrested Hanson after he was accused of striking someone with the bottle after a fight broke out at the landmark bar located on Cypress Street in the heart of Pismo.
Hanson made bail after he was booked into County Jail.
In what may or may not be a coincidence, last Sunday’s incident occurred almost exactly three years to the day that Hanson, 44, alleged former Raiders coach Tom Cable violently attacked him when he was an assistant in Oakland.

Manning only had “all day to throw” on two plays. They had a holding penalty too.
Also, he almost threw a pick (as someone mentioned). He threw it right to the defender.
He did step up in the pocket and throw a nice one on 3rd and long but there was not the usual Manning “zip”.
He overthrew a guy in the endzone then on the next play (on the int) the ball WAS well behind Stokely.
I’m not just drinking kool aid on this. Of course he concerns me; it’s Peyton Manning..but all in all I don’t see what everyone’s raving about as far as what he did tonight.

From what I read about his performance BEFORE I saw this replay I honestly expected him to look better.
If the defender catches that easy int. Manning doesn’t drive the field. It should have ended right there.
You’re right that considering he was out all last yr. it wasn’t a bad performance and he did make a few nice throws….not much zip though.

I’m sure the Bulls would give LA Derrick Rose for the rights to Luke Walton. After all, Rose is injured so i’m sure they’d see it as a fair trade.
Although LA will want Luol Deng in the deal too.

I just wanted to say this thing is ridiculous to have all the good players on your team and competing against teams who can never sign big name players it’s pretty much BS thanks to the NFL and it’s Salary cap .. Oh I also like to add I’m A’s fan as well and it’s even more fun when they play better than 50% of the league considering they have the lowest pay roll

All due respect to Manning’s abilities and success but after a full year off, a new system for the 1st time in over a decade, neck surgery, aging, no dominant RB… I see their offense struggling this year. 9 wins tops if their defense is top 5.
Week 4 RAIDERS @ Den is good timing for a division road win.

===============================================
Somewhat.
After all, it was the acquisition of Campbell that facilitated kicking JaMoron to the curb.
We should be eternally grateful for that.
However, Jason will primarily be remembered as a decent game manager, in the sense that he did a pretty good job avoiding throwing picks. There were extremely few, if any, games where an observer could say JC’s stellar play carried the Raids to victory.
When Jason stunk, it was really bad.
His games against the Titans, Rams, Steelers and Whiners were classic examples of pure ineptitude.
You know how you can tell that a guy is a total scrub ?
When you can release him and have absolutely no concern that he might come back in another uniform and beat you. In fact, as a Raider fan, I’d always relish the opportunity to face off against JaMoron or JC.
Almost a gauranteed W.

Yes he can put up big numbers but guy has been known to lay an egg in the playoffs..I’ll take our O anyday over Denvers O, heck I would take out O over all of the teams in the league and our D should improve from having pretty good teachers on that side of the team..I’m not scared of anybody in our division in fact I’m looking forward to division sweep this year ..go Raiders show these punks we’re for reals

Michael Vick injured his thumb on his throwing hand at the tail end of a throw connecting with his lineman’s helmet, wincing in pain. Turns out the X-rays came back negative. But what on earth is Vick doing still in the game in the 2nd quarter?

Not worried about Peyton having a ton of time to throw, no defense truly unleashes the hounds in the pre-season.

Impossible to read too much into Peyton’s first game with the Broncos. He threw like two times, but one of them could have been easily picked. Had forever in the pocket, but I agree that won’t be the case in a full regular season game.
August 10th, 2012 at 6:26 am
The “experts” may bluster and fart about how bad the Raiders are going to be that year, but I’d put that lineup against any in the AFC West.
August 10th, 2012 at 6:26 am
Hey guys, was talking to my pops last night and my lil sister got an offer to play starting QB. It’s some type of full contact women’s league and she’d play in Nebraska or Wisconsin I think. I’m pumped for her, my dad says she’s benching like 250. damn!
August 10th, 2012 at 6:26 am
I watched Manning, the guy is not all the way back but he seems on his way, even if he doesn’t get there, Peyton at 80% is still better than most QB’s, specially when it comes to the mental part of the game, making adjustments at the Line and all that stuff.
It remains to be seen if he can stay healthy the whole season, Denver’s RB’s are average at best and I’m not sure they want to put everything on Peyton’s arm.
Overall, Denver fans should be happy, but man I don’t know how they can go all season wincing every time someone gets near Peyton, it’s going to be a stressfull season for them and I don’t think it’s gonna end well.

*******
The mental part is the huge advantage to Mannings game. However even with all of that, if I could only choose one QB to go to war with, I’d take Carson over Peyton any day. I think he’s just flat better all around than a declining, but still good Peyton. One is ascending and the other is descending.

Rookie LB Ingram with SD = Looks like he’ll be a problem. Coming on the weak side alot too. Came off the edge to light up Rodgers, ball intercepted, then he came up and cleaned Starks off his feet with a block. Plus he was in the ruckous alot last night.

SI had a one page writeup on D-Mac in the newest edition.
Basically said his injuries were freak injuries, and talks up how good he can be if he stayed healthy for 16 games. Champ Bailey is quoted as saying he is the best in the game.
Also, on their “travel report” section about going to every camp, they listed the most impressive players they have seen thus far in training camps.
Our very own Carson Palmer was THIRD (!!!!) behind only Brees and Brady. Peyton was 5th.

I agree, he’s the one Chargers defensive player I’m really really worried about.
Chargers got a steal in that kid. I LOVED him coming out of the draft to the point I would’ve taken him over any defensive player in the draft except Morris Claiborne and maybe Mark Barron. I realize I was probalby unique in that position, but man alive that kid is impressive.

Not surprising. All the local beat writers have been raving about Carson. Only speed bump so far has been Bucky Brooks report where he saw half of one practice and mused about Carson being inconsistent in Knapp’s mobile WCO. So far so good. 5 stars to Carson, who will prove himself to be the best QB in the AFC West this year.

“Bears All Access” w/ Zack Zademan should have been “Raiders All Access” last night.
Really classy to hear Bush and J. Campbell rave about their time in Oakland.
The host (Zademan) is petrified of the ‘Black Hole’ (funny) and Bush and JC were treated like the “cool guys” coming from bad boy Oaktown, and they played it up like that.
I’ve never heard former Raiders talk so glowingly about their time here. No laffing about “dysfunction” or “Mr. Davis”. Bush went out of his way to say he’s not gonna say anything bad about Oakland, he loved his time here and the same w/JC.
Zademan: “Tell me guys about the Raider mystique”.
Bush: “It’s for real. There’s something about Oakland…the fans, the organization…it was great”.
The only negative thing was whn asked about the Bear offense compared to Oakland Bush said “it’s more polished”. JC agreed.
August 10th, 2012 at 7:01 am
Ryan Mathews out 4-6 weeks. That’s good for my popsicle.
August 10th, 2012 at 7:02 am
Talk about bad luck for Ryan Mathews, first carry and lands on his shoulder with one or two guys above him, that was a freak injury, not that it rarely happens because it often does, but you can’t fault a guy for that kind of stuff and the clavicle will remain tender for a while, might hinder his entire season if he rushes himdelf back.
I’m nervous.

But seriously, Knapp’s offense is not very explosive, one of our young weapons might break a big-play but this offense needs to get in a groove and Knapp is a progression play-caller, he’ll try to establish the run and work from there, it’s methodic and it will drive a lot of us crazy but if executed properly it can be very effective.

====================
I hope he gets a half….at LEAST a full quarter. I can’t imagine him being worse than Grahm Harrell. Jaret Lee looked a little shaky in the beginning but got it together. Terell is getting painted as a garbage / never will be Quarterback in this league. Honestly don’t know why. I know there’s consistency issues but, Harrell was in DHB’s draft class. He’s been around AWHILE and didn’t look too stunning. I’m hoping Pryor shows a little something, I mean he had the game of his life in the Rose Bowl 2010, and won the Sugar Bowl the following year, and it’s NOT because they had STELLAR receivers or a hiesman running back. The kid can play man…. No question.

I forget WHO it was, but against SD last year, it was a 1st down pass on 3rd and long. Receiver caught the ball crossing the middle, and Mitchell crushed him with a perfectly timed hit and sepparated him from the ball……pass incomplete – 4th down punt.

Because that San Diego WR did get hit fairly well(it was the kid Brown), but he hopped right up and later caught a TD pass.

Don’t know for sure. I think it’s a coaches discretion about that. I know Ravens tackle to ground damn near every padded practice. I think CBA just covers how many days in pads, and consecutive, and what-not.

Yeah maybe it is up to the coaches, but DA did mention there would be one full tackling session before the game, and that was the day Goodson got hit.

@G123
SD also has Le’Ron McClain, Curtis Brinkley & Jacob Hester
Mathews has never had a big game against us. I don’t think Tolbert has either, except that 20 yard run in WK17 last season
We have completely shut down SD’s run game since Tomlinson departed. However, Ronnie Brown in Miami was always a thorn in our side. I’m a bit nervous!

With Mathews out, no reason we shouldn’t kick butt on opening night! I think the Chargers are in for a tough start. Like a 1-4 or 1-5 start, and then like they typically do will turn it on and finish strong. But I don’t see them as a playoff team this year. It’ll end up being too little too late.

Even if it was only Sproles, at least Ronaldo knocked someone out.
It would be nice if Ronaldo was a more violent banger, but I’ll settle for a reliable tackler at this point.
Having a defense of reliable tacklers on the 2nd and 3rd levels will help limit some unnecessary long gains, but you still want a guy that offenses fear.
An intimidator.
Can’t have too many Mike Puffs. Doubt he’s ever knocked anyone out.
Interesting quote from Wheels after he KO’d Goodson.
Said Goodson was kind of light.
Wheels looks pretty light himself. I’ll be curious to see if he’s more of a banger than his size would indicate.
Curry can deliver a blow. Branch will hit. MM34 too.
No real outstanding enforcer or a Lewis, Harris, Gholdson type that everyone on offense is looking out for, though.
Would be nice to have a Tatum or even Eddie Anderson type presence.

I think it’s great to have an “enforcer” type to make the other guy remember you the next time he lines up. But I think it’s way overrated in contrast to having a technically proficient defender who meets the carrier at the point of attack and brings him down. We need a little more heady brainy tactician play and a little less “bully” play. The suplex looks good from time to time, but it’s not as effective as smart consistent play that forces consistent 3 and outs.

I thought Manning looked very good last night.
Off a little on some of his throws but I expect that to improve once the rust is gone and he gets better acclimated to the WR’s.
Didn’t see enough to be convinced the arm strength is where it should be, but the pass to the left sideline got there with more than enough steam and was on the money.
On the 3rd and 15 conversion, he stepped up and delivered a strike.
He might not have looked great, but it was a solid debut and I didn’t like seeing it.

Of his 3 incompletions, one was a flat drop, one was in the corner of the end zone where the timing was off by a fraction of a second, and the INT which was thrown a tad behind the WR and the DB made a great play on the ball.
Good, not great, but a decent baseline if this is his floor.

===============================================
DC/HC won’t intimidate but they can have offenses bamboozled, confused and looking for stuff that isn’t even there.
A safety like Tatum will have Wides thinking twice when going over the middle. Alligator arms and intimidation drops are wonderful white flags to see the offense waving.

On the 3rd and 15 conversion, he stepped up and delivered a strike.

THAT was impressive.
He looked alot better than I hoped.
Looking forward to seeing him after he gets solidly sacked a few times.
Denvers line looked good so I hope some guys can get to him.

I know im late but I have to chime in on this one. This is great news about no.2. He seemed to slip into a depression last year with the deaths in hid family, his poor play, and his weight. Now that he is at least able to cope with his loss, and appears to be on the right track when it comes to diet and exercise, he is free to let his game and talent come to the surface. I love the idea of prepared meals and a former raider, as his shadow. I think all of you that have hated on no.2 to this point are in for a shock, and those that have supported him will be pleased. i think the kid is getting it, and is continuing the maturation process that started for him last year after being benched.

JC is same ole guy. Short passes and dumpoffs.
It’s what he does. A formula that has been somewhat successful for him.
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
It was definitely successful for us.
===============================================
Somewhat.
After all, it was the acquisition of Campbell that facilitated kicking JaMoron to the curb.
We should be eternally grateful for that.
However, Jason will primarily be remembered as a decent game manager, in the sense that he did a pretty good job avoiding throwing picks. There were extremely few, if any, games where an observer could say JC’s stellar play carried the Raids to victory.
When Jason stunk, it was really bad.
His games against the Titans, Rams, Steelers and Whiners were classic examples of pure ineptitude.
You know how you can tell that a guy is a total scrub ?
When you can release him and have absolutely no concern that he might come back in another uniform and beat you. In fact, as a Raider fan, I’d always relish the opportunity to face off against JaMoron or JC.
Almost a gauranteed W.
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
Hilarious!! Hue gets us to .500 for only the 2nd time in the last 10 years, and you have the nerve to talk about “guaranteed wins”??? Sht, Matt Moore and Tim Tebow beat us like we stole something last year. And in case you don’t remember, Campbell put a beatdown on us in Oakland in 2009. Funny thing is we kicked Palmer’s ass that same year.
August 10th, 2012 at 10:35 am
I think the sheep on this board better start curbing their enthusiasm just a little about Palmer. Training camp reports are fun and all, but the regular season is a totally different story. Palmer has put two straight years of bad tape out there. The guy has a lot to prove. I’d be a hell of a lot more excited about our MVP, McFadden. If that guy gets hurt and Palmer starts airing out, we could be picking in the top 5 next year.
August 10th, 2012 at 10:39 am

This is a fantastic post my Mistic. The guy was on track to get things turned around. He was proclaimed by the media during the 1st minicamp practice as “the best QB on the field”. In his last two games for us the previous season, he beat Denver in heroic fashion and played pretty damn well against the Ravens with zero protection from the O-line in either game. The benching and getting back Chaz obviously helped the guy tremendously. It’s been a few years, but I still don’t get why Al caved and cut him.

Not quite. Never said the report meant he was going to come out and have a great season, or that he would even start. But never in a million years did I think he would get CUT at that point. #1 overall pick and paid almost $40 million?? If the guy just shows up breathing, he should at least have made it to training camp! On the other hand, we’ve got guys on here saying Palmer’s gonna throw for 6k and a 100 tds after playing like sht for the last 2 or 3 yrs, because of training camp reports. See the difference??

Well Jamarcus was fresh off a 3 TD – 17 turnover season, and you seemed willing to give him a fresh start due to being a “#1 overall pick” (as Carson was) and having a good practice (not a camp like Carson, just a weekend).

August 10th, 2012 at 11:01 am
Maybe I’m misremembering, but wasn’t Jasizzurp due a $6.5 million roster bonus for making it camp and still breathing? I think that is reason enough to consider cutting him when he did.

JaMarcus “regressed” in only his 2nd year as a starter after getting a downgrade in OC and QB coach, no running game, rookies Louis Murphy and DHB at WR, and Mario Henderson at LT. Your damn right he deserved a “fresh starts”, espcieally since he showed improvement at the end of the season. Carson Palmer, on the other hand, is going into his 10th year. He flat-out quit on the Bengals, a team that immediately got better with his departure. And his piss-poor play doomed us to yet another year without a playoff appearance after JC got us off to our most promising start in a decade. Palmer got his “fresh start” last year. Now he’s got to prove he’s not on a steep decline. He knows this, why don’t you?

Not sure about “Steep” decline unless you place him amongst the top-tier QB’s earlier in his career.

August 10th, 2012 at 11:15 am

JaMarcus regressed the moment he got that fat check and realized he could drink sizzurp all day instead of reading the playbook.
August 10th, 2012 at 11:17 am
Honey Badger was smoking that Spyce stuff last year when he got suspended.
Sure that wasn’t the first issue with him.
Great kick returner, but not even really much of pro prospect as a DB. I think Mayock said as a DB alone he would probably grade in the 5th round range.

you can get insight during week 3, when your D is actually running a scheme, blitzing, and the opponent is actually running more than 1 page of their playbook.
Until then, it’s all noise.
Miami game up 17 points 1st Q of last year’s week 1 pre-season game. Went on to give up the 6th-fewest points in the NFL.

There’s no question the guy was a top-tier QB like 5 or 6 years ago. But that’s been my whole problem with the trade from the very beginning. Fact is the guy’s been on the decline for at least the last 3. And we still gave up so much to bring him here to continue the downward spiral. Pay the guy all the money you want, but I hate seeing this team blow off high draft picks for players like him. You call me a “Debbie Downer”, I say I’m a realist. Anything is possible. He wouldn’t be the 1st guy to turn his career around and he has what many, including future HOFer Champ Bailey, calls the best back in the NFL behind him. But If he didn’t play for the Raiders, I think you would see Palmer the same way I do.

Its time to put the Palmer hate aside and get positive about this upcoming season.
The guy is a leader he has great ability to make reads at the LOS he is heads and shoulder above anyone we have had play QB since Gannon. Lets give him the benefit of the doubt here and see what he can do with a full off season to work with his WR’s and this new offense.

Lucas never kicked him to the curb, JR chose to leave. And he never came to camp at 300 pounds. Even Lane Kiffin, who didn’t want to draft JR, laughed at those reports. A lot of lazy journalism took place during JR’s tenure and turned Raider fans and just about everyone else against him. The guy wasn’t perfect, who is? But even if all that were true, the guy made a very strong push to redeem himself 2010. I just don’t agree with cutting him off at the knees when he’s putting forth the effort and had an improved coaching staff and supporting cast waiting for him.

My point is only, if people think new scheme will turn Huffy in to an all-pro, wouldn’t it also help improve Gio’s game?
August 10th, 2012 at 11:43 am
Debo, a mid-1st and mid-2nd is not that much to give up for a legit starting NFL QB.
The Cardinals (Kolb), Jets (Sanchez), Broncos (Tebow), Bears (Cutler), gave up more.
Only Cutler might be better. And they gave up multiple 1st rounders and Orton.

Lets say that the reports were wrong and he is a great guy….ok then why has he not made a legitimate effort to play for another team?

Huff played very well 2 seasons ago. Garnered his all-pro vote. Wasn’t Ed Reed Jr. or anything, but played well.
This year he’s expected to play very well, but it’s not a make-or-break. He’s already proven that under a decent coach (Marshall) he plays well.
August 10th, 2012 at 11:53 am
Lakers still won’t get pass OKC and if they do they fo sho won’t beat the Heat.
August 10th, 2012 at 11:53 am
I just hope Reg puts the best guy on the field, whether it be Huff or Gio.
August 10th, 2012 at 11:54 am
the chances of those three coaches whiffing on the same D player is slim. I’ll leave it at that.
Great attitude guy, will make some plays, should stick around for a while.
Shoot, he could become a starter at FS if Huff becomes that floating nickle stud that Woodson became at GB.

Gio is also in much better shape than Huff(work ethic). Dungy, Payton and McCarthy were blessed to have 3 future HOF QB’s, they’re not defensive gurus.

Those coaches also had Manning, Brees and Rodgers. None of their defenses were ever feared like the Steelers/Ravens year in and year out.

Reg will put the best guys on the roster, Allen will put the best guys on the field. Should be an exciting year of a real football organization.
Fix the run D = 10 wins.
Don’t fix the run D because it’s a personnel problem = 7-8 wins.

Correct
All I was for Christmas is some run D and half the penalties, should equal playoffs.

fear of those coaches D has nothing to do with the argument that they all are D coaches, all had successful Ds, and all cut Gio.

Your assessment of CP3 is right on target. He will, IMO, turn out to be one of the best things to happen to the Raiders in a very long time. He’s a true franchise QB/leader and his price, a 1st & 2nd was an absolute bargain. He will be our QB for the next 5 years.

Bath salts are designer drugs often containing substituted cathinones, which have effects similar to amphetamine and cocaine.
Cathinones come from the shrub Catha edulis (Khat planet).

You can by bathsalts at headshops, smoke shops etc. but I think some states are makin it illegal. It also sounds like the makers of these bathsalts just change some chemicals in it so then it makes it legal, so its a never ending process.
Even if they make them all illegal it will still be easy to get because there is a market for it

I went to a Hornets game vs the Nuggets when A.I. was there and I was probably the only cat in the Arena with a Philly A.I. Jersey. Good friend of mind is cool with JR Smith who got us down to the hallway outside the locker room. Iverson smiled when he saw my Philly jersey, signed it and gave me dap/hug. And the icing on the cake was the pic we took right after.
It was a group pic of me, A.I., Chris Paul, JR Smith and Carmelo Anthony was leaning on the hallway wall looking like a gang banger with blue jeans , blue fitted and a pendleton.
August 10th, 2012 at 12:39 pm
There is no reason to think Palmer could not play for the next 7-8 years fairly easily. The thing most fans fail to realize is by getting Palmer there was no ramp up time, meaning we didn’t have to wait 2-4 years for Palmer to develop. While last season was basically a waste, at least Palmer could get acclimated to the Raider org.

Raiders defensive lineman Richard Seymour is worried about the replacement officials the NFL has hired, questioning whether the league has taken care to hire people who not only understand the rules of the NFL, but will apply those rules fairly.
“I think the integrity of the game is at stake,” Seymour told USA Today. “You never know who they know and who they’re connected to. And who are their favorite teams. To just say we’ve got some new guys coming in, who knows? They might admire Peyton Manning.”
It seems rather unlikely that some official who’s a Peyton Manning fan would consciously decide to make calls to help Manning. But it is a concern that the NFL has apparently relaxed its normal standards in hiring replacement officials while the regular officials and the NFL are involved in a contract dispute. Seymour says he’s worried about second-rate officials making big mistakes.
“It’s just the unknown,” he says. “I’m not a fan of the replacements. Our regular refs, they work so hard to prepare themselves all throughout the year. They put in a ton of work to compete at the highest level. I want the best of the best.”
At the moment, the best of the best are watching NFL games from home.

I get that you believe the Raids gave up on him too soon and should have continued to try to salvage something out of him.
I’m still not sure what your explanation for JaMoron apparently being done at the age of 26 or so is.
There’s got to be a reason there’s been virtually no interest in him, and if there was – why hasn’t he made an attempt to resurrect his career ?
