This blog is a psuedo-pole of the fans outlook for the Raiders 2012-13 season. Based on the consensus of all you bloggers, the Raiders will not when any games out of our division and we will be stretching it to say they win 3 games within their division. Oh well, maybe next year? After-all the preseason games are the best predictor of the regular season? Right? Any statisticians out there that can back this premise up?

i just watched a replay of M. Bush running it in from 8 yards out. Used is Marcus Allen type nimble feet to tip toe thru the defense! I bet he would have got it in the end zone. BTY Streater and DHB both dropped TD’s, so it shouldn’t have come down to DMAC!

Lets sign Chad Ochocinko we can get a good steal on him. Leinart should be alright to heal for a back-up position. Besides Palmer needs all the reps he can get until he can show some kind of consistency running this offense. DMAC is a Beast so is Killer Kelly on Def. We should see what Huff can do playing corner. Streater can come in as the Second rec. if Moore is not back in time but definitely can be the third if we dont sign anyone to the team.Criner as back-up. Do we have the talent? yes, Depth? No. Hopefully Taiwan Jones gets healthy can’t see goodson being behind DMAC. Goodson probably a better third down specialist.

It’s the curse of AD. Just as he could not stand anyone related to the Raiders to shine above him, he’s asserting dead-hand control from the grave to ensure we fail.

I know u don’t really mean that…but the thought of Al Davis somehow in some dark pressbox in the afterlife still pulling the strings of his former franchise in a sadistic and menacing manner is quite humorous.

Is Goodson fumbline 3 out of 8 carries a surprise? It shouldn’t be. Reggie knew full well what all the reports were about him. He can’t say “Wow. I didn’t see THAT coming”.

Did he think Goodson was all of a sudden gonna change who he is after a stern talking to from DA? Or becuz he put on a silver helmet?

And DHB? Still dropping TD passes I see. Do we need more patience with him?

Bad special teams. I’m sure that will magically fix it itself “when it really counts”.

In fact how can we doubt that the whole team will all of a sudden not fumble, not drop passes, block better and make less mistakes when the heat is turned up when the team plays for real.

Before tuning into Raider v. AZ I watched the first half of Ravens v. Lions. It was a good game. Both teams put together cogent, productive drives. Both defenses made great plays.

I also watched the 4th quarter with the rookies and 2nd and 3rd stringers; both sides put excellent drives together on O, and stopped the other side with excellent D.

Why can’t we do anything right?? Why do we look like total amateurs playing the Keystone Cops out there?

The same confused, chaotic, and nasty mess we saw last week: just where we left off last season.

Same as I predicted, Jack-Azz Jacoby injured again, with CP throwing another bone-headed INT.

Of course Leinart is injured, and Goodson the fumbler prevailed.

C’mon Reggie, you are starting to look real stupid, along with Mark (who is as dingy as AD in his latter years). Allen and Greg Knapp look like Abbott and Costello, while DMAC didn’t do much.

I always said we would rue the day we let Michael Bush go. As I said before, we should package Moore, Ford, Seymour and Goodson and try to get either a decent CB or RB.

This won’t be fixed, and what you see tonight, you’ll see on opening day.

Finally, Carson Palmer, blew it again tonight; he appears to be as mediocre as I have been saying he is.

Overall, we are in a deep hole here.

Only thing i’m worried about is our special teams , even our long snapper is bad… everything else is going to be alright, and we will see a real D for once lol

——————————————————

Yeah, WTF is going on with Condo? Every snap is fkin high, I started holding my breath when he would snap the ball, lol. He was/is the best longsnapper in the league. I want to blame coaching on the special teams units, I mean they all look bad, but how could a pro bowl snapper all of a sudden suck at it? IDK

Maybe he doesn’t want the team to cut Lechler and is just snapping high on purpose lol
