Fourth quarter review: Dolphins 35, Raiders 13
By Steve Corkran
Sunday, September 16th, 2012 at 1:09 pm in Oakland Raiders.
The Raiders cut the lead to 21-13 with another Janikowski field goal. From there, they turned over things to a defense that was wearing down in the high heat and humidity.
The Dolphins promptly marched 80 yards in eight plays for a back-breaking touchdown, with rookie quarterback Ryan Tannehill completing for passes along the way with relative ease.
The final completion for Tannehill came on a pass over the middle to tight end Anthony Fasano, with middle linebacker Rolando McClain scurrying to get into position to make the play.
Fasano slammed on the brakes, made a cut and dived into the end zone for a 28-13 lead.
The Raiders went three-and-out on their next possession, leaving the Dolphins in position to run the ball and milk the clock.
The Raiders return to Oakland 0-2 and facing the daunting prospect of finding a way to right the ship with games against the Pittsburgh Steelers, Denver Broncos and Atlanta Falcons on the horizon.
The Raiders defense that looked so good against the Chargers struggled most of the game against the Dolphins, with Reggie Bush rushing for 172 yards and the Dolphins for 230 of their more than 250 by the time Lamar Miller upped the lead to 35-13 late in the game with a 15-yard touchdown run.
Raiders quarterback Carson Palmer countered with 373 yards passing on 24 of 48 passing, with one touchdown and one interception.

Michael Huff is the worse player ever….he gives up big play after big play his whole career and the has nerve to talk on Al Davis? All of yall who defended him saying we playing in real defense…what now?

Really? Last year 34-14 loss to Miami. 46-16 loss to GB. 28-0 vs Denver. 2010, 35-3 Pitt, 33-17 Mia, 38-13 Tenn, 17-9 Niners.
Who’s the dumfk now? Those were all offenses under Hue. STFU you revisionist.
September 16th, 2012 at 1:11 pm
0-4 going into the bye.
September 16th, 2012 at 1:11 pm
Allen is a joke. Knapp is a joke, Brisel is a joke, Reggie Mck is a joke.
September 16th, 2012 at 1:12 pm

September 16th, 2012 at 1:12 pm
35-13 knapp has to move over and let Saunders take over. What harm could that do. Be a man knapp, step aside and let Saunders take over.
September 16th, 2012 at 1:12 pm
Is the stretch play the only run in the zBS?
September 16th, 2012 at 1:12 pm
DMAC goes from best RB in NFL to wrse that fast!…..yeah WCO and SBS sur ework…..all yall who said otherwise are some btches
September 16th, 2012 at 1:12 pm
Our players are going to look up at the owners box for someone to cry too and throw the coach under the bus, and they aint gonna see Al.
They better suck it up and learn the sytems.
September 16th, 2012 at 1:13 pm
This is knapps last oc job in the nfl…. loooser.. ruined a nice offense
September 16th, 2012 at 1:13 pm
We are a team without a secondary. This day made an already sick man feel sicker. Embarrassed by a rookie QB. Sickening
September 16th, 2012 at 1:13 pm
Can’t believe the radio team is trying to get people to buy tickets to witness this DISASTER ON TURF!
September 16th, 2012 at 1:13 pm
DMAC a non-factor. Palmer under pressure all effing day. Defense caves like always.
What a joke.
September 16th, 2012 at 1:13 pm
Hope Allen goes off on his coaches, and the players go into reggies office and ask that he remove knapp from the play calling. What do we got to lose?
September 16th, 2012 at 1:14 pm
Knapp, DA and their change to ZBS has absolutely destroyed our offense. DMac and ZBS are incompatible – PERIOD. I don’t see them changing back to power blocking this year or possibly ever so that must mean DMac is not in their future. DMac will be gone next year.
I like DA but bringing in Knapp, Pollack & Hoffman, DA’s picks, was the total undoing of this team. Reggie needs to step in and fix the asst. coaching problem.
September 16th, 2012 at 1:14 pm
I’m going to go play Saints Row 3 and see if I can get the “Beat 50 People to Death With Your Bare Hands” achievement.

Well here are 5 guys in over their head

Knapp
Allen

September 16th, 2012 at 1:14 pm
Carson Palmer should be able to lift his team up with the passing game.
He can’t do it.
Damn sure not elite.

September 16th, 2012 at 1:17 pm
This isn’t even funny anymore. How in the he11 do you go from having one of the top elite backs the previous year, to having the worst rushing attack in the NFL in two games? They better recognize that this system is just not fit for McFadden, and that sticking to it will only neutralize your best weapon in the team. I mean, if it isn’t obvious now, it will never be. McFadden can’t find an open hole anywhere. He is dropping passes, and seems completely checked out by the 2nd qrtr.
Great job taking out your best weapon and making it easier for your opponent guys!
September 16th, 2012 at 1:17 pm
Knapp sucked in SF he sucked and got stripped of play callings duties his last time in Oak and he was fired after 1 season in Seattle. He was a QB coach in Houston not an OC. He had DMC looking like a bust 3 years ago. Hue Jack came in and Him Looking like a beast. Raiders couldn’t score in preseason and can’t score now Knapp Sucks a**!!!

Huff, Seymour, Kelly, Branch, Barnes, CP3…….all those big fat drones with bloated salaries should be fired tomorrow morning.
We should plug in TP to give him experience, and just go maybe 3/14 and reap rewards of the draft.
Reggie, Knapp, DA and Mark Davis and family should all be removed too.

It is nice to take your best player and piss him off saw it on Monday, how do you think McFadden feels now? Knapp can go clean the toilets at the stadium as far as I am concerned
McKenzie must have some score card, it is one thing to lose but to be embarrassed and by Reggie bush???
September 16th, 2012 at 1:18 pm
New England just got gamed gifted to them. I am so pissed at our team. Can’t win throwing it a hundred times. At least mix in some power running to keep defense honest.
September 16th, 2012 at 1:18 pm
I’ll say this one more time before Saints Row: KNAPP IS NOT THE PROBLEM. FRANK POLLACK IS THE PROBLEM. Give our backs some lanes to run and CP time to throw, and our offense looks way better.

You called me a psycho-path, traitor, etc. Now I hope you realize this entire team should be fired including Reggie, DA, Knapp and Mark Davis as managing partner.
This team isn’t worth anyone’s loyalty and any one who gives the team his/her loyalty is a fool.
I’ll now stick with real teams, with talented, excellent athletes, and staff who know how to play the game at the NFL level.

September 16th, 2012 at 1:24 pm
Same ol’raiders- can’t run, can’t stop the run. At least with Hugh Jack we had a real NFL offense. Playing a rookie QB and instead of making him beat you, you give up 250 yd rushing…then you make Palmer throw 50 times and don’t establish the run. Someone please tell me how well mcfadden did last ime in the zone blcoking offense? remember when Hugh Jack went to him and said what plays he likes to run…answer one cut and get downfield…Miami owns us every time we play them?? No need to go get real nfl wr’s. Our wr’s are not going to get exposed unless we can’t run the ball…which we can’t…so they will. Let’s see..stop mcfadden and cover moore…and no one else can beat you. Heyward works hard, plays ghard…but he can’t beat you. Ford is done for the year. Best TE we have had in is in seattle.

Penalties and the sense that they gave up at the end oh and injuries just about round out the utter demise of this team. An overall pile of crap by both players and coaches. DAMMIT!!!!!!!!

September 16th, 2012 at 1:25 pm
Knapp is the problem. He is the one that tells the Oline coach how to run the zbs and where the blocks should be. However, the system itself is not the problem, it is the way it is executed and whether or not the players you have fit the system. We all knew McFadden didn’t fit this system. I think all of us called it when Knapp was first brought in.
To have a supposed elite back that was top RB last year not get more than 30 yds in a game is just wrong. Major issues are at hand, and unless they change things up, the problem will not go away.
September 16th, 2012 at 1:25 pm
Throw the ZBS idea in the trash and bring back the Power and DMC will be a Factor. Hes a see the gap and attack not a wait for the gap runner. He said it himself by the time he hits a gap it’s gone.

• Knapp must be sent to the press box – no ore calling plays.
• Pollack must be fired – Bring Wylie back – he’s available & switch back to Power blocking.
• Hoffman must be fired
• Saunders must take over the OC job and reinstalling last years offense. Not impossible but will be difficult.
• Slow-lando aka McCheese should be benched or traded.
• Our entire defensive backfield is defective.
• Seymour should be traded. He’s just not cutting it any longer.
• Brisel should be benched or traded.
This all would be a good start.

We had DHB and Moore and we try no deep passes, and when we do is to blocing TE Gordon???!!!
Our best player is averaging 2 yards per carry with the new zone-blocking.
We had Pat Lee and Joselio Hanson as starting CBs at some point today.
McClain still running slow and missing tackles.
My only positive is that we actually had a player in Brandon Myers.
September 16th, 2012 at 1:26 pm
I blame the GM and all the coaches except Al Saunders. We stink! We stink! We stink!
September 16th, 2012 at 1:26 pm
the only emotion associated with the raiders is here on the blog. Our GM can hardly speak, Our coach just stands on the sideline doing his best not to sweat, our qb is not a leader who can’t convert on 3rd down, our defensive unit has no playmakers or leaders and our best player is being told to reinvent himself because leading the league in yds per carry in a power blocking system is a thing of the past. All this and we have clowns who actually believe Reggie is the man to lead us to a championship. Reggie has never acheived anything plain and simple. I havent felt this hopeless since Norv Turner

I noticed McFadden isn’t taking on tacklers like in the past. He went out of bounds a yard short of the stick to make it 3rd and one. Noticed that week one as well. Is he trying to preserve himself to play elsewhere or was he instructed to do so.

Knapp is the problem. He is the one that tells the Oline coach how to run the zbs and where the blocks should be. However, the system itself is not the problem, it is the way it is executed and whether or not the players you have fit the system. We all knew McFadden didn’t fit this system. I think all of us called it when Knapp was first brought in.
To have a supposed elite back that was top RB last year not get more than 30 yds in a game is just wrong. Major issues are at hand, and unless they change things up, the problem will not go away.

September 16th, 2012 at 1:28 pm
Mark Davis and family need to be removed as the managing partner of the Raiders, under a legal theory of oppression.
AD was under the influence of dementia during his last 10 yrs. Mark Davis is vacant in mind and spirit and really, really needs to go.
The other investors in the partnership need to divorce the team from any major decision making capacity.
This team is not owned by the Davis’.

can’t believe this bs…this system is wasting dmacs talent, this oc is sh!t, our dbs are arena league backups…reggie, please use our top 5 pick on a CB in 2013, sign FAs that arent nickel corners and backup guards, the Nation doesnt deserve to suffer like this. Is anyone who is on the west coast going to show up for the steelers game? I get to watch it with some steelers fans, thinking im gonna have to hurt someone before that game is over. 16-0 or 0-16 the Raiders are my squad, but damn i would like to see us play some real football.

I am not wanting Hugh Jack back..But what about a power run game with real NFL routes. I knew we were in trouble when Mcfadden had more passes caught than anyone last week. Showed me we were going to try to play Gruden ball with Charlie Garner..except we don’t have Gannon, Rice, Brown, Miller, Wheatley,or Gruden and a defense loaded with vets that know what needs to be done to win games. I like Plamer..as QB of last years offense. Think SD game after he was with team for 10 days last year Moore killed them and Bush punished them. I even think I read where SD said they expected to be punished more last week. nope..dink and dunk..if we go 0-4…throw a gas can on it.
September 16th, 2012 at 1:32 pm
Bring back Gruden!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
September 16th, 2012 at 1:32 pm

DJ,
I appreciate your posts. But you owe me an apology when I said after the Raiders’ loss last week the Raiders were the worst and I was now rooting for the 49′ers and the Broncos.
You called me a psycho-path, traitor, etc. Now I hope you realize this entire team should be fired including Reggie, DA, Knapp and Mark Davis as managing partner.
This team isn’t worth anyone’s loyalty and any one who gives the team his/her loyalty is a fool.
I’ll now stick with real teams, with talented, excellent athletes, and staff who know how to play the game at the NFL level.
To me, any worshiper at this point is a fool, and really, really stupid.
_____________________________________________________________
Where I come from, we call people that talk like this BANDWAGON FANS! Kinda like SD fans. or Niner fans.
You don’t turn on your team simply because they can’t play. You root for your team through thick and thin. That’s why you are a fan, at least that’s what a REAL FAN does. You may not like the product, and that is fine. And you can be as critical as you want about coaches and players. But you don’t turn your back on the team you call yourself a fan of, and go root for another team. Well, I guess someone who wasn’t a real fan from the beginning would.
As Always, GO RAIDERS!!!
September 16th, 2012 at 1:33 pm
DMAC and Lechler were shaking their heads on the bench at the end of the game, what s crazy about this is everyone except for the 3 stooges(reggie, da, and knapp) know that Knapp has no place in Oakland as an OC..this is a real sad day bc it feels like we not only lost this season but many years to come.I have no faith in Reggie

3. West coast offense/Zone blocking scheme with Knapp and Multiple Defense with Jason Tarver were going to utilize the talent we had to the fullest potential compared to the previous “vinilla” defense and vertical passing game.

If we change the offense after gruden went 8-8 two years in a row we don’t win 3 division titles,do not mess with something that’s working.our offense and special teams were find and you change them and now look.i guess Reggie would cancel usher and bring in a loser off American idol.
September 16th, 2012 at 1:39 pm
I just wish I hadn’t made my kids raider fans. They don’t deserve this type of pain and humiliation. No way McFadden stays next year (not sure I want him if he can’t stay on the field anyway), but one of two things r gonna happen:
1. McFadden will pack it in for the year, maybe fake an injury so his free agent stock doesn’t completely plummet in this dogsh*t system and simply walk away.
2. Knapp and his boys will get him killed.
I’m gonna put my faith in Reggie and DA. I don’t have a choice. Cause those two aren’t going anywhere for a long time. Mark Davis doesn’t have the nuts or football confidence to fire them anyway so let’s just hope this gets better. It can’t get worse.
One thing that makes me feel a little bit of faith is the fact that Reggie opted for the 85% black out level. The lowest level you could choose I believe and still not get blacked out. Maybe he knew something we didn’t before the season even started? I just wish he would have told me before I dumped $300 to directv for this detritus of a team.

The Palmer-Knapp combination is bringing the whole team down. Cant run the football because of the ZBS. Al is turning over in his grave…Can we hire Mike Martz??? We will be stuck watching this knid of football the whole season. The teams body language is not good. Palmer-Knapp WILL NOT WORK!!!! One or both have to go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
================================================
Again, the problem IS NOT KNAPP. Palmer’s having to rush every throw, and our backs have no lanes to run in. FRANK POLLACK is the problem.
—————————————————————-
Ah common!! Ray Charles, DareDevil, and Mike Longstreet could tell you Knapps Offense is draging the whole team down. The players body language is saying it…it has even made the defense quit. McFadden 11-carries 22-yards…3 blind mice could tell you KNAPPS gotta go.
HE IS SABOTAGING THEM FOR FIRING HIM THE 1ST TIME!!!!

The worst part is the Raiders aren’t even the Raiders anymore. At least when Al was in charge, even when things were bad we had an identity and were always interesting.
Reggie and Co. Have stripped that away and regressed the product on the field at the same time.
Congratulations! The Raiders are now the equivalent of the Jaguars or Rams … except the Rams have a decent coach.

DA’s post game interview was no shining example of confidence. He sounded like an inexperience young guy in his 30’s who is in way over his head and has no clue how to fix it.
It’s easy though: first thing DA does is interview the players and ask them in their opinion what is wrong. If the quick common denominator comes up ZBS, Knapp, then change both.
Reggie now seems to be just a big, dumb guy who can barely talk, that somehow was hired by GB 20 yrs ago under the NFL’s affirmative action program.
It makes one wonder.

Yeah, they may need to start looking at relieving Knapp of the primary playcalling duties – I think Allen wanted Knapp to just take care of the offense, and he didnt.

September 16th, 2012 at 1:53 pm

September 16th, 2012 at 1:53 pm
next time wolf makes a recommendation dont listen..the raiders have lost their emotion and quite frankly any hope . With Al at least we know he would try to do something. Reggie hasnt made one good move and your right Reggie we dont need a WR like Plax, or a back up snapper, or hire and OC who fits the talent you have, or bring in a CB as your number 1 cb who had not an int since 2008, every move Reggie has made hasnt worked. its embarassing. ..do we really have any hope? we cant even get Jerry or Cork to ask a tough question to reggie or DA. Knapp has killed the offense and reggie has regressed the organization.Sad thing is we all feel hopeless, bc their really isnt anyone in charge who gets it.

September 16th, 2012 at 1:54 pm
Allen may be a bright guy and I actually think he may be decent if he gets a second go-around as a head coach one day, but it’s obvious he is in WAY over his head right now. Don’t think he has the experience or confidence to run a group of pro athletes, terrible OC pick, and his poise in terms of game management is very shaky as well.

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$4
You are wrong again. And as far as your “bandwagon” theory, I could care less. After 28 yrs of losing (except for the Gruden era) I have had enough.
To me worshipers are fools. It’s a good way to go to the grave a loser.
September 16th, 2012 at 1:57 pm
Watching the Raiders stuff their faces at the post game buffet while Goodson was being interviewed made we want to throw up.
September 16th, 2012 at 1:57 pm
The Raiders never been this bad. We look under coached….you know, like the coaches don’t have a clue.
September 16th, 2012 at 1:57 pm
When are you going to start blaming G.W Bush as well?
This is about Knapp and his play calling. Fix that and we are a better team on “O”.

Reality right now is very bleak…darkest before the dawn bleak

Honestly, my first impression of Reggie at his first news conference was: DUH!!!!! I thought “Oh no!!!!” and started laughing. Unfortunately he is worse than I thought…..
September 16th, 2012 at 1:58 pm
You’d better believe there still are hopeful folk in this blog, bring on the excuses, and how wonderful Carson played, blah, blah, if it wasn’t for this and that.

Im still for reggie mckenzie its gonna be a tough long road. Give Reggie a full hand to play with and get rid of alot of guys who cant play these schemes on offense and defense. But in the end GO Raiders no matter
————————
foolish thought process..the Raiders were 8-8 last year..Reggie blew it up and needs to be accountable for regressing..a good gm should have made moves to get us to 9-7 or 10-6 not 3-13
=====
exactly at worst you go 6-10 with these changes, I see no way we will win more than 4 games.
September 16th, 2012 at 1:58 pm
Do it!
September 16th, 2012 at 1:58 pm
KK, it is the whole team. Do not make excuses for Seymour and TK.
September 16th, 2012 at 1:58 pm
why are people making this about Hue Jackson?
nobody else wanted to give him a HC or OC job either, so I dont think Reggie deserves much blame for that
Dennis Allen qualified to be an NFL HC?
that remains to be seen. 2 games doesnt tell the whole story. 32 games should be plenty
September 16th, 2012 at 1:58 pm
Start PRYOR
2. Bring back John Herrera and install the Raiders of Old again.
3. What is knappy doing to this offense? major major steps backwords. Will be lucky to win 2 games this year
September 16th, 2012 at 1:59 pm
The Raiders will be going through a youth movement fellas.
And we are going to have to LIVE with it.
What else can you do?
If the guys getting big money aren’t winning, you aren’t going to keep them around
September 16th, 2012 at 1:59 pm
That ZBS is crap.
When the offense is getting booed off the field at home after yet another 3 and out, Knapp will lose the play calling duties… again.
And, again, it’ll be too little, too late.
It’s obvious that Big Wiz wanted no part of this debacle.
I don’t blame him a bit. I don’t either.
They used to look like a very talented bad team. Now they just look like a very bad team. Period.
How many sellouts this year?

They deserved it, just Allen should get yelled at for hiring Knapp & hoffman and ditching our offense, Fassel & Wylie

The ZBS Knapp has installed, has the players all looking at each other. It has even reached over to the defensive side of the ball. McFadden 11-carries 22-yrds. We may not win 2 games if we stay with the Palmer-Knapp combo.

September 16th, 2012 at 2:03 pm
I did not like Mark’s decision to go with Reggie I really did not like the the Decision to go with DA over Hue. A revamp of everything the Raiders gained was in the balance over this decision.
The primary chant, get rid of Hue was the song. You got what u wanted. You got a mess on offense and defense with zero gain but some new toys Reggie, DA, Knapp. Enjoy!!!!

1 for 12 on 3 rd down is obscene! The 2nd half of both games were absolute he’ll!

Don’t kid yourselves, unless Mark sells to AIG, there is NO CHANCE the Raiders get backin the LA Market, they Demand a Winner or they won’t show up.

The worst part is the Raiders aren’t even the Raiders anymore. At least when Al was in charge, even when things were bad we had an identity and were always interesting.
Reggie and Co. Have stripped that away and regressed the product on the field at the same time.
Congratulations! The Raiders are now the equivalent of the Jaguars or Rams … except the Rams have a decent coach.

In the NFL , a good GM can take a team to the next level, Reggie hasnt done this . in fact hes taken an 8-8 team who without injuries last yr would have been in first place to a team that will be lucky to win 3 games.

Hue Jackson:
“When I think back on it, I think I’m being blamed, and have been blamed, for [all of that],” Jackson said. “What gets me is, I know [Bengals owner] Mike Brown and I know Carson Palmer, but I didn’t make the trade. That decision came from above. It involved draft picks and money. But it wasn’t my call.
“I’m tired of people saying that I’m power hungry, that I’m a blowhard, that I’m saying all the wrong things. I never said I wanted to be the general manager. I said I wanted input. What coach wouldn’t want some input in the direction of the organization?
“When I said I wanted to play a greater role, what I meant by that was, I’m going to get a defensive coordinator that I want. I’m going to get the staff members that I want. And the players that weren’t playing well aren’t gonna be here.
“Before, I didn’t have a chance in all of those things. Everybody knows my hands were tied – I worked for Al Davis. He ran the defense, always had. It’s part of the job.”

What do we get in return for DMC?
September 16th, 2012 at 2:14 pm
I supported Hue Jackson. I gave him high praise when as OC he went directly to our best player (DMac) and asked what kind of plays he liked and based strategies around that. Hue was exciting and a great OC. But he is the guy that traded away two high round picks, throwing JC under the bus, couldn’t score in the second half of games with the same players that he had in the first half (outcoached). Then he got fired and nobody wanted him.
But if you’re gonna make excuses for him as head coach, then What the fck do you think Dennis Allen is working with?? Its not much different. Be reasonable, spread the blame, understand how football works.

Because the coaches MIGHT think that DMAC is not the running back for their system AND that they can find someone, albeit lesser physical tools, that can run THEIR offense….thus leading to SCORING POINTS.
That’s their thinking…..
————————
If DMAC is not the man for their “system” They should all be fired on the spot for blindness, stupidity, and abuse.
Fuuuuk. You HAVE to Make it work for DMAC. He’s not just another “Back”
=====================================================
I agree with you….but that’s not how its going to play out.
Raiders will end up starting so non-descript guy next year and draft a Right Tackle with the 2nd round pick they get for DMAC
September 16th, 2012 at 2:16 pm
IN THE 2013 DRAFT WITH THE 1ST OVERALL PICK THE RAIDERS SELECT QB ? OUT OF ?.

the fact that reggie went on air and said, “he thinks this team is going to be pretty good” tells you all you need to know about his ability to evaluate talent.

why are people making this about Hue Jackson?
nobody else wanted to give him a HC or OC job either, so I dont think Reggie deserves much blame for that
Dennis Allen qualified to be an NFL HC?
that remains to be seen. 2 games doesnt tell the whole story. 32 games should be plenty
********************
What hurt Hue was that presumed power grab at the last press conference. He was obviously upset and should have given himself a few days before speaking at length with the media. He was seen as damaged goods after that. He was in the running for the Rams OC job if i remember correctly. I think most teams stayed away because they viewed him as power hungry and a potential headache
—————————
Hue Jackson:
“When I think back on it, I think I’m being blamed, and have been blamed, for [all of that],” Jackson said. “What gets me is, I know [Bengals owner] Mike Brown and I know Carson Palmer, but I didn’t make the trade. That decision came from above. It involved draft picks and money. But it wasn’t my call.
“I’m tired of people saying that I’m power hungry, that I’m a blowhard, that I’m saying all the wrong things. I never said I wanted to be the general manager. I said I wanted input. What coach wouldn’t want some input in the direction of the organization?
“When I said I wanted to play a greater role, what I meant by that was, I’m going to get a defensive coordinator that I want. I’m going to get the staff members that I want. And the players that weren’t playing well aren’t gonna be here.
“Before, I didn’t have a chance in all of those things. Everybody knows my hands were tied – I worked for Al Davis. He ran the defense, always had. It’s part of the job.”
*****************************
The first part of that was so damn political it was disgusting. Though he didn’t have the final call on the Palmer trade, he was the one that facilitated it. The second part of that makes all the sense in the world, though. Chucky B was not Hue’s first choice as a DC and likely wasn’t Al Davis’ either, but the boss’ stranglehold on that side of the ball scared away any serious candidate.
September 16th, 2012 at 2:18 pm
I love our Raiders, however I see us going 0-5; with losses to Pittsburg (Ben, Wallace and Brown are licking there chops), Denver (Von will be in Carson’s grill all day), and Atlanta- what do you think Ryan, Jones,White, Jacquizz, Turner, and Gonzales are going to do to our secondary?
September 16th, 2012 at 2:18 pm
Unless McKenzie steps in and overrules Allen–which doesn’t seem like his M.O.–then this probably means the end of McFadden in Oakland.
Reggie/Allen has a choice between the Knapp & ZBS and McFadden and it looks like they’re picking Knapp and the ZBS
September 16th, 2012 at 2:18 pm
Palmer is not the problem be serious even a novice can see that.

Yeah, the Oline is.
And since that is the case, Palmer can’t be Palmer, so to speak.

Allen may be a bright guy and I actually think he may be decent if he gets a second go-around as a head coach one day, but it’s obvious he is in WAY over his head right now. Don’t think he has the experience or confidence to run a group of pro athletes, terrible OC pick, and his poise in terms of game management is very shaky as well.
————————–
If he was bright, he never would have hired that joke of a OC, I agree that he is in way over his head…just looking at this team in all phases, it is clear this team is a mess, that points to the coaching staff, this may be the worst coached football team in the NFL..accountability my a$$

As an OC and playcaller Hue had us at 8-8 and top 10 in offense. As a HC and playcaller he had us at 8-8 and top 10 in offense after losing his starting RB, QB, TE, and Wr’s at various times.
Dennis Allen as a DC didn’t have a top 20 defense

Michael Silver had warned some people about Mark Davis wanting to put his own spin on the team and said “this Allen guy better be good” because he genuinely liked Hue Jackson…but the move to trade for Carson Palmer sealed his fate.

The Bangals knew it, yet people were complaining about jason Campbell…although i do not think even Joe Montana could even run whatever Knapp is trying…it appears to be an extremley complicated conservative form of some sort of west-coast…which does not allow the players to just flow.

I miss the 70s. The Raiders won games… Nobody was laughing at us. Those games were so much fun to be there for…
The move to LA was the end of the franchise. They won early in the 80s with what were still basically Oakland teams. The only honestly good team since was the Gruden squad.
September 16th, 2012 at 2:28 pm
DMAC was unable to break any tackles. He looks weaker then last year. He was getting tackled in the open field by one tackler

“I’m tired of people saying that I’m power hungry, that I’m a blowhard, that I’m saying all the wrong things. I never said I wanted to be the general manager. I said I wanted input. What coach wouldn’t want some input in the direction of the organization?
“When I said I wanted to play a greater role, what I meant by that was, I’m going to get a defensive coordinator that I want. I’m going to get the staff members that I want. And the players that weren’t playing well aren’t gonna be here.
“Before, I didn’t have a chance in all of those things. Everybody knows my hands were tied – I worked for Al Davis. He ran the defense, always had. It’s part of the job.”

I supported Hue Jackson. I gave him high praise when as OC he went directly to our best player (DMac) and asked what kind of plays he liked and based strategies around that. Hue was exciting and a great OC. But he is the guy that traded away two high round picks, throwing JC under the bus, couldn’t score in the second half of games with the same players that he had in the first half (outcoached). Then he got fired and nobody wanted him.
But if you’re gonna make excuses for him as head coach, then What the fck do you think Dennis Allen is working with?? Its not much different. Be reasonable, spread the blame, understand how football works.
++++++++++++++++++
As an OC and playcaller Hue had us at 8-8 and top 10 in offense. As a HC and playcaller he had us at 8-8 and top 10 in offense after losing his starting RB, QB, TE, and Wr’s at various times.
Dennis Allen as a DC didn’t have a top 20 defense
****
Is this how pathetic we’ve become? The Raider fans are arguing about bringing back the bengals’ equipment manager to be our head coach because he had a top ten offense while players were injured? After week 2?

Palmer is a talented QB who doesnt have the IT factor. This is why he can throw for 400 yrds but still play poorly. he was 1 for 11 at one point with respect to third down conversions. Its why at the end of the half with the play supposed to go to Dmac and with Dmac wide open he waits too long to pull the trigger and makes it a difficult pass for DMAC to catch. it why at the 6 yd line in the 3rd quarter he had dmoore wide open on a slant which could have went the distance he overthrows him and we end up punting and giving miami great field position for scoring a TD that turned the game around, or maybe its the first drive where he ran out of bounds by a couple of feet in front of the first down which resulted in a punt. he just doesnt seem to have the will to win. He throws a nice ball, but isnt a leader and not a franchise QB
September 16th, 2012 at 2:33 pm
I know I’ve posted this before, however it must be repeated with additions.
Reggie keep these players in Raider nation:
Moore, Vehldeer, Wisniewski (might be best to move him back to LG)and Reece; now add Wheeler, Burris, Ihenacho, Streater.
Our TE’s: Meyrs & Ausberry (Gordon played great on special teams) had solid games today.

2. The O-line really sucks
3. Most of the WRs suck
4. The Entire Secondary sucks
5. Lee really sucks
6. ZBS sucks
7. Defensive scheme sucks
8. Special Teams suck
This is the worst team in the NFL right now. They have taken 3 steps back from last year.
Reggie and Dennis Allen must admit their mistake in hiring Knapp and putting in this stupid ZBS or they will set this franchise back another decade.
Raiders will have a top 3 draft pick if not the number 1 pick.

I have never missed one of his games. He is a good college QB, not great, and he is not a very good decision maker. The type to rely on his arm, 11 times out of 10, no matter the situation. Pass on Bark. In fact, I predict by next draft, after this NCAA season, and teams get a chance to watch film on Bark, go through the combine, etc, all this talk about him going #1 at all will dissolve.

Well said, and I agree . He did have a flawless game against San Diego, and he upset the Steelers once on a final drive (but that was with T.O. and Chad) – he doenst quite have the make up to push his team over the top without top receivers around him.
get the blueprint the Niners did – get a consistent QB and get foundations on defense. Change the attitude, get a system guys believe it, have them execute it and continually get better each week. – Raiders stagnant, and the frustration level is going to have them disentegrate a little more each week.

Dennis should have challenged that call and at the very least Raiders should have been rewarded with Miami intentionally grounding.
Also delay of game penalty/unsportsman like conduct should have been imposed on Miami, when Streater tried to save the bounce pass carson threw him (it was a trap).
Raiders were going no huddle, scab ref allowed Miami player to take ball out of his hand hold up Raiders’ no huddle offense; red flag should never have been allowed or at the very least a yellow flag on Miami to follow.
Biggest call/no call against the Raiders though was Desmond Bryant was held by Miami OL when he had tannehill in his grasp, OLineman just yanked on the back of his jersey, no way none of the refs did not see that.

Please, No Matt Bark. And this comes from the biggest Trojan supporter on this blog. I hope he does not lose another game for the Trojans and I wish him well the rest of the season, but there is no way I want my NFL team wasting a pick on him. He is not going to be a good NFL QB. I have never missed one of his games. He is a good college QB, not great, and he is not a very good decision maker. The type to rely on his arm, 11 times out of 10, no matter the situation. Pass on Bark. In fact, I predict by next draft, after this NCAA season, and teams get a chance to watch film on Bark, go through the combine, etc, all this talk about him going #1 at all will dissolve.
==================
No Tyler Wilson or Geno Smith, either? Looks like we ride with T-Pryor.
September 16th, 2012 at 2:42 pm
Right now…I don’t see us winning 1 game.

It is too bad that Mark Davis didn’t think about the history of Oakland and try to find a general manager that aligned with the general philosophy of the Raiders.
But what is done is done. I don’t own the team.
HOpe it works out and I am rooting for Reggie, DA and ….Knapp to succeed.
I hate losing

Yes he will cuz Reggie doesn’t care about winning this year…it’s all about him and having HIS guys…even if we go 0-16 which we very may well do.
No one can dispute that we have worst team in the league.
Great job reggie. Congrats.

Dennis Allen is entrenched and will simply let his buddy knapp ruin his chances of being a successful hc. He loses. We the fans lose. Palmer and McFadden lose as their talents are wasted.
Disaster!
September 16th, 2012 at 2:43 pm
All are coaches will last until sometime late next season, otherwise Reggie will have to admit making a mistake.
September 16th, 2012 at 2:43 pm
Think we will win a game everyone thinks we will lose. Need to atleast mix in some power runs to keep defense honest. DMC only good run in preseason was out of a power scheme. If they are to hard headed to see this then we will struggle to win five games.
September 16th, 2012 at 2:43 pm

DA just proved to me how big of an idiot he is with that comment. I no longer feel a need to support him as HC, and it only took 2 games. So far, so bad for the new era. These games Ive been watching, doesnt even seem like Raiders games. I miss Al. Mistakes and all. I honestly dont care about anyones opinion, I may be done as a Raiders fan. They have reduced the organization that I have loved and supported my entire life into “nothing special”. After 2 games, I can already feel the mystique of the Raiders fading. Sadly, the organization that we all grew up loving, supporting, and willing to argue with anyone over has become another random losing team, no different from the Jags. Im not even concerned about the wins or losses at this point. We’ve been losing for years. Im just being honest. This does not FEEL like the RAIDERS.
September 16th, 2012 at 2:45 pm
he announcers of the game said something revealing that he had told them.
Apparently he told them in zbs the holes move real quick as opposed to power blocking when they stay open longer time for him to hit it.
This is HUGE guys. Our main offensive weapon is uncomfortable with the moving holes of zbs during runs and can’t hit them!!! There you have it. Down the drain the season goes when you build the entire around a RB who hates the system you put him in.
DA, really? Really? That’s your idea of playing to your play makers strengths? By putting in a system that will make him in-effective?
==================
Yeah, i noticed that McFadden is one cut guy blasting to the hole at top speed, while THE ZBS stud, Arian Foster leans and drives gaining momentum and steadily pushing into and breaking tackles at angles – its really a matter of running styles, and DMC’s just doesnt fit it – subtle things like this should be noticed by now and adjusted to.
Is this why Wiz 1.0 left..did he see an inconsistency with that OL?

===============
Seems like the team is losing the trust factor with Allen, and we’ll begin to mutiny in a couple of weeks. If someone feels like “nothing special” and that mystique fades, it is going to be “going through the motions” and “yeah coach, ok” responses to a young coach trying to sell himself. Appears as if, McKenzie didnt quite acknowledge the youth factor and not give him an experienced OC to work with. Why not just keep Saunders as OC if it was already working was the OBVIOUS question.

Michael Silver had warned some people about Mark Davis wanting to put his own spin on the team and said “this Allen guy better be good” because he genuinely liked Hue Jackson…but the move to trade for Carson Palmer sealed his fate. It’ll be interesting to see if the team can rally around the coach – but it looks like McFadden isn’t liking the ZBS.
_________________
Agreed. Time to zone out all politicians talking on this team. CP is one DA is another.
After this game how much do you wanna bet DA is gonna say “Ryan did a great job of quarterbacking and reading our defense. My hats off to his amazing play. Ryan will be a great QB in this league. And for Raiders we will keep getting better one day at a time. By the time my contract is over in four years we will be pretty good and could get to 10-6 if of course we get better one day at a time. That’s all I care bout!!”
September 16th, 2012 at 2:51 pm
WCO needs a qb with a quick release; Palmer is a vertical deep threat, 7 step drop back passer= incompatible;
Vehldeer, Wisniewski are power blockers with great technigue = incompatible to zbs
Dmac as severeraiders stated is incompatible with zbs as well; especially when defenses do not need to respect the deep threat or mid range passes even.

==============
The back side hustles in to fill that cutback lane..the ZBS moves and holes close quickly, as opposed to a power game where the OL turns in and holds the point. That hole stays open longer and McFadden can side step and burst ahead. In this ZBS stretch, he’s running a straight line and has to accelerate past an LB then cut back and the backside flow has already gotten there to stop him.

in reality, the season is over. The questions are will reggie admit he made a mistake hiring knapp and if yes what is his next move.If he keeps Knapp and lets go of Dmac than when Knapp fails again it will be on reggies head. My hope is someone can talk some sense to Reggie, getting rid of knapp will restore hope and remember Saunders is right there. to me the dink and dunk is an issue, but its even more critical to modify the zbs I really wouldnt mind giving TP a chance. Palmer is no different then some of the previous qbs who throw a nice ball but cant move the chains when it matters. sad day for me bc football ended in september..only hope is if knapp is fired which i doubt will happen. also remember we were 8-8 last year, i didnt expect nor will accept 5 or 6 wins and consider it a good season..

It’s not a matter of who’s right/wrong on here guys, our team stinks as a whole, bad game planning and execution.
September 16th, 2012 at 3:00 pm
Hey don’t forget we still owe Cincy a draft pick from the Palmer trade, it could hurt us. We need to sit out Kelly, Seymour and Huff right now, all three not worth the powder it takes to blow them up. Get rid of Barnes too. Get rid of Knapp and zbs go back to power block and if can not win, then let TP get some play time, because our season does not look like we may even win against the lousy chefs.

in reality, the season is over. The questions are will reggie admit he made a mistake hiring knapp and if yes what is his next move.If he keeps Knapp and lets go of Dmac than when Knapp fails again it will be on reggies head. My hope is someone can talk some sense to Reggie, getting rid of knapp will restore hope and remember Saunders is right there.
========
The key thing is will Allen throw Knapp under the bus and admit the mistake, or will his ego make him stubborn to rule in favor of “his guy”, and how soon will the team doubt the leadership aspect and acknowledge that he is b.s’ing them about trust and “it will work”.
You can tell the body language (McFadden’s especially) very early is apparent that things aren’t going as planned. A lot of guys have been through this before, and will tune him out very early..especially a lot of the defensive veterans, and Allen is a defensive coach, so you know its going to be a train wreck.
September 16th, 2012 at 3:07 pm
“Let’s clean house”? Yeah. Why not? Everyone was so quick to want Hue gone after posting the best winning % since Gruden…even with DMAC out and his QB injured and key receivers….AND a DC he didn;t get to choose.
Yeah…let’s be patient with thse guys who have no clue what the hell they are doing and who took a competitive team which as a defensive stop from the division title and quickly turn em into the worst team in football.
September 16th, 2012 at 3:07 pm
What will we do when we play against Megatron? I think Chekwa will play aginst him better than the DBs we have now. I wish Rod Woodson could still suit up.
September 16th, 2012 at 3:08 pm
i hope we draft that bad azzz defensive end outta south carolina
September 16th, 2012 at 3:08 pm
If Paul Chryst fails at Pitt, we should go after him for OC. He ran a pretty impressive offense at Wisconsin from 2005-2011.
September 16th, 2012 at 3:08 pm

dennis allen is too damn snug for me in a different way than hue jax was. this guy thinks he’s so much smarter than people. the zbs does work but it works with certain players like any other system. its not about which one is better but whats a better fit. 2 great singers can have totally different styles but its all about preference. what we had worked and all we had to do is give saunders the oc gig and bring in a younger guy with the same philosophy to take over when saunders is done. they wanted to change what al davis was doing when he built the team up. all they had to do was fix the defense. forcing these guys to fit their egos was a big mistake. the hue haters give them a pass for this but couldnt wait to hate on hue.
September 16th, 2012 at 3:09 pm

September 16th, 2012 at 3:09 pm

a WCO guy and a good film room type. Thing with Pryor is he’s athletic, but he’s immature and arrogant. Just seems as if they are not getting the right combination of picks – the upside is THEY WILL HAVE a top 10 pick, and they have to put some money into the talent – but who will come here?
September 16th, 2012 at 3:10 pm
I see more Raider faithful are coming out of cloud 9 and hitting reality. Firing Hue & Company and hiring Knapp was a terrible decision! We all knew it when it happened. The most logical thing to do if you wanted to bring in YOUR HC would be to keep Saunders as OC to keep some consistency with your BEST PERFORMING UNIT!!!
Now look at this sht.
And our CBs suck azzz!!! That is NOT Raider!!! We had an antiquated system but we were known for having some great corners.
Now look at this sht.
Top RB in the league turned into one of the worst statistically. I could go on and on but Reggie has fk’d this team up. It was a simple fkn fix! Get a DC and we were in the playoffs.
Now look at this sht.

The sad thing is none of these guys are going to admit their mistakes and this team will be circling the toilet for years to come because of it, while scrubbing away everything the Raiders are in the process.
- Knapp will refuse to accept the fact his system turns our strengths into weaknesses and continue to stick with ideology over reality.
- Dennis Allen will refuse to overrule Knapp and refuse to admit that his OC, o-line and ST coach hires were awful.
- Reggie will refuse to admit he and Mark Davis set this train wreck in motion the day he fired Hue, and fueled it up the day he approved the Knapp hire. Not because Knapp necessarily just sucks, but because his offense is a terrible fit for our QB and our best player. Reggie has already refused to accept responsibility for trading Louis Murphy for a bag of balls and correct that error.
September 16th, 2012 at 3:12 pm
so much for that 70’s style defense that was outdated. i saw wussy azz cb’s giving scrub wr’s a 7-10 yard cushion all game long. no press just layin off. tannenhill didnt even have to work to complete passes. what a great MODERN style of d we played today.

Hue Jackson had the swagger and confidence that he wanted his team to have. He made the raiders fun again. I actually had non-raider fans watching his media sessions online cuz they thought the guy was cool. People forget that when he first came in as an OC he challenged both the offense and defense everyday in practice. Our defensive vets were singing his praises for pretty much single handedly amping up the intensity in practice

Oh and for those who were wondering, that was the best Knapp could do vs Miami. That is the most he is going to “stretch” the field. It won’t get much better than that for him.
Sad thing is plays designed to stretch the field were clearly plays our players looked the most comfortable and leverageable. Thats when we were getting the most out of our players.
AND
These zone stretch plays they keep running suck aZz! One of the best runs DMC had this year was on POWER vs SD. This ZBS is not cutting it with our lot of players. It is deflating our best weapon. Averaging 2ypc ???? Are you kidding me????
Fire Knapps asz before its too late. One more game and it may be. Get Saunders in and give him full control. He may be able to salvage something. And get Wiz back!

Tajh Boyd will be 1 of the best QB’s to come out of the draft and as of December you’ll start hearing more about him.
September 16th, 2012 at 3:28 pm
So who will the “Fall guy’ be in all of this mess?
Mark, Reggie, DA, or Knapp?
Another problem is the future does not look good if they keep the same path. Question marks with roster may put this team into full rebuild. Palmer? DMAC?. What will they do with TP? This was supposed to be a playoff team. Actually, a “playoff” team with Hue J and a new defense.
September 16th, 2012 at 3:29 pm
Allen better not come out and give miami props. He better rip knapp and call out the defense. No more stay the course. Dump knapp and his backwards playcalling.

Raiders need to face facts. Al had some terrible drafts (JaWorthless, Gallery, DVD, ect), gave guys contracts they had no business getting (Seymore, Kelly, Huff, ect,) Hue was great offensively as a coordinator, but terrible as a GM (Palmer, Curry, Housh ect.) Now we are hamstrung with bad contracts, overpaid players, cheap players who can’t really play and it is time to rebuild. Dump all the dead weight(Seymour, Kelly, Curry, Huff) , get rid of players who make way too much and care to little and trade the guys who have some value(Palmer & dmac). Let’s see how close Pryor can be to Cam Newton, trade Palmer to the first team who is a playoff contender that loses their QB & get a 2nd back. Trade Dmac in the off season to get a #1. Palmer plays well under good circumstances, but doesn’t have the heart to win a SB. Free up some good money to get quality free agents. Get drafts pick and build this team the right way.

Yeah, its starting to look like a do-over in a major way. But do you trust them to do it in the right way, if they had messed up an already decent 8-8 underachieving team – seems like Harbaugh was able to take the same thing and CHANGE THE MINDSET in S.F.

The difference between the whiners of last year and us is they had a solid defense to begin with. They then brought in some proven free agents in the secondary and a proven d coordinator. Anyone who think Seymour & Kelly are great DT’s needs to stop drinkin that sh*t. Seymour is just sucking up cash. As is Kelly, Huff, Houston, Curry and Palmer. The whiners didn’t constantly shoot themselves in the foot with costly turnovers and penalties. You need to get rid of every guy who isn’t willing to go balls out on every single play. Palmer is just a better looking Kerry Collins. He is gutless and heartless. Dmac can’t run in the zbs obviously and too afraid to get hurt. They both have value so dump them asap. Let’s see what Pryor can do and build for next season. Hue right now is enjoying his Irish Coffee watching Dumb & Dumber (i,e Mark & Reggie). If Hue wasn’t so hubris things might be different.

Dee Milner of Bama nd David Amerson of N.C. State are projected in top 20 – but a LOT of juniors ranked high, so its a very raw class. -Maybe they could salvage Tyrann Mathieu ?

September 16th, 2012 at 3:52 pm
These corners man,,, I just can’t believe how terrible they are. Lee and Jansen or whoever #23 is was just getting picked on all day,, they spent the whole day playing 9-10yds off the receiver and still got beat every time. The receivers sold the deep route and had our corners turning around constantly only to fall for 10yd hooks and hitches. I still think getting rid of DVD was a mistake, atleast he has enough recovery speed to break up a pass. We still have no vocal leaders on the defense. Tarver must be overdosing on extra strength aspirin right now. Let’s just hope we don’t get blown out by Pittsburg next week.

I don’t even think Reggie should be allowed to make picks at this moment. I’m just not sold on his talent evaluation skills.
Crazy thing is Campbell was a perfect WCO QB (he would dink n dunk with the best of them). Palmer was acquired to go down the field – vertical.
Letting MBush go. Trading Murphy for a backup WR. Basically getting rid of high potential developmental prospects (DVD, BCampbell, Checkwa). Letting Boss go. On and on …just questionable decision after questionable decision.
And don’t get me started again on the coaching staff.

Hi Fellas! Haven’t posted since AD passed. Don’t get it twisted though, I have stayed Silver and Black though. You guys talking about the wrong scheme for the personnel are completely right!! Teams have a personality – and it derives from the city. Philly is gritty, the Eagles play gritty… to the end! Same with Pittsburgh and the Steelers! The Raiders I fell in love with as a boy were exactly that! Somehow that has been hopelessly lost with our beloved franchise. These Raiders are not our fathers Raiders. There is not one player on this entire team that the opposing teams fears – offensively or defensively. We used to have O-linemen that opposing teams literally feared. Maybe, maybe that’s Veldeer currently. That’s it. think about it Nation. You guys are awesome fans. You are bleeding this sh!t every week. The heavy traffic on this blog every day proves it!! The Raiders need to get back to being as BADAZZ as the city they represent. That would be a good start.

Raiders tryin to show up at the games dressed like they are goin to a prom. They need to show up on Harleys and play football.
Palmer is a decent QB. Just isn’t a fit for knapps joke of a scheme. Campbell woulda been a great fit. The new order has made some goofed up decisions already.

Its not so much that Palmer doesn’t fit, most of the players don’t fit which is scary. Palmer is actually doing a good job with how things are being called and run offensively. His stat line shows it. The playcalling is killing this team. No imagination. Doesn’t utilize player strengths. Knapps version of stretching the field (which you saw today) is still a joke.
Sadly, this team looked better when he did try to stretch the field. Not this dink n dunk crap.

Bottom line is you can’t settle for FG’s in the red zone. The offense has regressed. It was clear the D was gassed in the second half, at least we should have been able make it a shootout.

Carson’s story continues, great stats, right? Padded as well, one meaningless TD in the first game, and the other a catch and run of 64 yds, but not making the throws when it really counts, especially red zone.
The most important stat is the losses, this is Carson at his best, piling on yards and losses.
My fear is coming true, the Raiders have turned into the Carson Palmer bungles. Some QBs just win, others just lose.
September 16th, 2012 at 4:20 pm
Gregg Knapp shut down Mcfadden!! opposing defenses couldn’t do that. season IS OVER, this team will get crucified by PIT and then MAULED by Manning. had to have this one and they didn’t even put up a fight. like i said before FIRESALE. we can all see that Mcfadden cannot run in this WCO for whatever reason. and if we’re keeping gutless Knapp then we should trade Mcfadden while he MAY have 2nd round value. this team is going nowhere and they need to clean house and start from scratch.going to need a QB first.

I can appreciate your response, Terrapin.
But at this point, we need better players, imo.
I don’t really care what the system is. This Oline is getting knocked back into OUR backfield on what seems like every run. Can’t imagine how that would be different with a power scheme.
Our offense was not good in a lot of games last year. Especially in the 2nd half. Pretty much the same players making the same mistakes.

I thought we looked damn good. DHB not only caught a couple with his hands but also appears to be our # 1 receiver and most durable. Brandon Myers will make you forget about Boss and Miller. Palmer is easily capable of gaining 5-600 yds per game, with 20- 30 receptions per game. I guarantee we will lead the AFC West in most if not every statistical category this year. Just like Marc Wilson did over Jim Plunkett.And seriously, don’t we remember the Wilson years more fondly than the Plunkett years?

Its not so much that Palmer doesn’t fit, most of the players don’t fit which is scary. Palmer is actually doing a good job with how things are being called and run offensively. His stat line shows it. The playcalling is killing this team. No imagination. Doesn’t utilize player strengths. Knapps version of stretching the field (which you saw today) is still a joke.
Sadly, this team looked better when he did try to stretch the field. Not this dink n dunk crap.

If you’ve got 3rd and 8 and you are deep on your own side of the field, why do have receivers running routes short of the markers?

It’s not the line. It’s the system. Someone needs to ask Knapp at the presser why Dmac has been held to under 30+ yards in both games. Running parallel and making decisions does not suit him. Everyone can see it.

By the way, YOU all wanted a GM,..well you got one,…things that have happened since Al died,…our future was mortgaged for a washed up QB who quit on his former team, (and made the playoffs without him with a rookie),…then what, lets see,…the idiot son takes over, inherits team, hires a GM that he never even interviewed, didnt interview any others,..ok, then what,..GM hires a terribly underqualified guy we never heard of to be the head coach,…then the GM let said coach hire all his own coaches,..Al never did, now you see why…but like I said, you all wanted a GM, well now you got one,..enjoy years and years and years of 3-13 football…be careful what you wish for.

I just listened to DA’s press conference. He believes in the zbs and is making excuses. Go to comcast bay area website to listen.what a joke
—
He has promptly taken an 8-8 team that was a defensive stop away from the division title and turned into the worst team in football.
Congratulations…
———————–
Something that bothered me about DA after last week’s loss was how he said in the presser that Goethel did practice long-snapping and made it sound like that was covered. But at the same time Lechler said Goethel never practiced long-snapping and Goethel basically said he would informally snap a few on his own outside of practice.
I know it seems minor, but players pick up on that kind of stuff. Especially from a brand new coach at the first sign of adversity. I think it’s fair to question whether or not DA has already lost this team. Certainly looked that way in the second half. Now, I don’t think he’s lost them so bad he can’t get them back, but still.

Darren needs to learn to run in the ZBS, because half the league uses it, and more teams are going towards it than away from it.
Just saying he can’t run in the ZBS is not something his agent will be selling as a FA.

I’d say that any O coordinater that lacks the ablillity to utilize DMAC is over matched.

Agree the O Line needs a lot of work.
Palmer can “chuck it” 8 yards just as easily as he can 6.
It’s the design of the play itself, running receivers short of the marker, that’s all.

ALl those short passes, the ones behind the LOS, and short of the first down marker, those are designed so the player can make the play one his own. They aren’t doing it so stop throwing those freakin’ short passes! DUH!

One thing everyone needs to realize is this:
Hiring Reggie was Mark’s first big decision. Firing Hue/Hiring DA was Reggie’s first big move. Hiring Knapp as OC and replacing Fassel and Wylie were DA’s first big moves.
With all that in mind, no way any of these guys makes any significant changes before the 2014 season. That means we’re stuck with these bozos for a minimum of two seasons. DA will have to really suck to not get a 3rd. Reggie will almost certainly get four, unless the team is sold.
September 16th, 2012 at 5:21 pm
This team is awful. And it rests on the coaches head. Now I get that DA is a Rookie HC, but if he wasn’t qualified why the hell is he here?
September 16th, 2012 at 5:22 pm
Carson can stay and coach up Pryor – who want to see play NOW.
Leinart = trash
McFadden – can stay but not in ZBS
Reece = keeper
TEs for all the hype have NOT been the problem.
Barnes = trash
Carlisle = too old.
Briesel = way overrated.
Lil Wiz & Veldheer = keepers
WRs = keepers
Seymour = GONE – saw him standing around watching multiple times.
Huff = gone – can’t tackle. Period.
All corners = complete garbage.
ROMAC = really wanted to like you but peace out.
Wheeler = keeper.
M Mitchell – needs to get on the field.
Burris – decent back up.
Knapp = trash.
Hoffman = trash.
Tarver – has potential – not ready to give up on.
DA and Reggie – need to lead a boy scout troop. This is NFL football, not christian summer camp. Reggie is screwing this team up badly. I want ballerz not a bunch of feel good, I can sign in for lunch like a good kid wussies. ALL of McKenzies add ons with the exception of Wheeler straight up suck! Top 5 draft pick here we come! I want to see some “accountability” from the front office. This team makes the 07 JaMarcus team look talented!

Just saying he can’t run in the ZBS is not something his agent will be selling as a FA.
I think DMAC cycled on at the wrong time. He does not look strong at all. Not breaking any tackles and falling down with any contact. That is not the ZBS or Knapps calls.
Hell our playmaker has had the ball in his hands plenty of times. He could not even catch the ball today
Not looking anything like a #4 overall and it cant be blamed on Knapp

I’m not sure if I agree with this statement.
You could be right but… when DMAC ran outside then he back peddled and ran across the the field throwing some straight arms, he looked bad az, looked tired doing it though. DMAC seemed to be one tackle away from making a big play. But….I’m afraid the zbs isn’t working in his favor.

Raiders OLine was third best in pass protection last year; and that’s with Jason & Carson’s not so quick release.
One of the best rushing teams without run first qbs.
Raiders retained four of them; tackles remained the same, both guards switched to different positions, brought in one new guard.
Raiders overhauled the one unit that did not need overhauling.

Some teams have IT,…some have SH1t…on one side of the bridge, the best team in football, will be for years, having the best stadium built, nothing but good times ahead,..on the other side?…doom, gloom, for sure years and years of the worst football in the league in front of an empty horrible stadium with not a new one in sight,…its not too late kids, you are allowed to change your minds, you dont have to be miserable year after year,…go Niners!!!

Was Jamarcus out there today?? Thats how bad we looked!!
September 16th, 2012 at 5:50 pm
Everyone in the world proclaimed as soon as Al Davis dies the Raiders will have a chance to be great again.
WRONG!
We are not better off with the old man gone we are in fact worse off we now have an owner who knows less about Football and winning.
September 16th, 2012 at 5:50 pm
Notice how NorcoAmy first said “he” was moving across the country, and is now claiming to be a Niner fan.
So were you lying then, or are you lying now?
September 16th, 2012 at 5:50 pm
Len,..in case youe just joining us, I was never a Raider fan,..I was an Al Davis fan,…hes gone, I have no loyalty to that team any longer,…enjoy your new owner and GM!!! LMAO

Pressure is forcing the QB to throw to the HOT READ!!!
Our Oline has the QB running for his life. Throw to the hot read or take a sack.
September 16th, 2012 at 5:50 pm
I think that every Oakland Raider fan in the world was let down today. Not good after a decade of losing. I’m bummed. I understand that this is a new era, but sheesh at least make a game out of it.
Now I’ve said my peace and I’m over it. Time to game plan for the steelers. Still got 14 games to go.
September 16th, 2012 at 5:51 pm

Turn the Football side over to someone He trusts.
We are less than 1 calender year into this.

September 16th, 2012 at 5:57 pm
Here’s Kawakami’s column. I know he’s as popular on this board as the swine flu, but tell me he’s wrong.
http://blogs.mercurynews.com/kawakami/2012/09/16/raiders-flop-in-miami-dennis-allen-greg-knapp-and-the-big-bad-issues/
“I’ll make this quick because I’m headed out to Candlestick for 49ers-Detroit…”
“But with the 49ers on my mind, and just having covered Stanford’s big upset of USC, I’ll repeat what I’ve been saying on Twitter:”
“The hallmarks of Jim Harbaugh and David Shaw teams are that they run the ball and they can stop the run, which sets them apart in this Pass-Happy Era of football.”
“It gives them a physical foundation, and everything is built on top of that. To beat them, you have to do things just about perfectly.”
“And that is not where the Raiders are right now, not where they are at all.”
“They can’t run–whether it’s the Zone Blocking System of OC Greg Knapp or a lack of talent, I’m not sure.”
“But they could run under Hue Jackson and Tom Cable, and now they are dead in the water on the ground.”
“And the Raiders didn’t stop the run today–Reggie Bush went right through them, embarrassingly.”
“There were a lot of other things that went wrong, but being the opposite of a Harbaugh/Shaw team was the baseline of it, and the Raiders got destroyed in a game they had to win, 35-13.”
“Next up the Raiders are at home vs. Pittsburgh next Sunday, then they’re at Denver the week after that, then the bye.”
“Raiders fans were already uncomfortable with Knapp and the ZBS; this will obviously only raise those concerns to Def Con 3,000. Knapp is Dennis Allen’s guy and Allen is GM Reggie McKenzie’s guy, and they’ve committed to the ZBS, so…”
“I don’t think anything’s changing, at least for now. It’s kind of late to do an offensive switcheroo.”
“But maybe if they limp into the bye, things might get interesting. They do have Al Saunders there, a holdover from last year’s offensive staff.”
“And they have Darren McFadden, a massively talented RB who just isn’t getting anywhere to run.”
“They also have Terrelle Pryor as a project QB (who hasn’t been active for either game this year). I’m not saying this is Palmer’s fault, but he’s not exactly the future of the franchise, and if it’s not working now…”
“I won’t be the only one wondering how Pryor might do. The last thing Allen and McKenzie wanted was Pryor talk and fire-Knapp talk right after Week 2. They also didn’t want us to start trying to figure where their first win might come.”
“But that’s where they are. It’s very early in the 2012 season, and the Raiders already have had a long season.”

The rookie Miami QB only completed one pass. The only problem was he did the one pass 16 times and nobody on our coaching staff could figure out that our corners were playing too soft. Or nobody could tell them that as soon as he looked to the right to JUMP THE PASS???
We’ve had some poorly coached teams before, but I don’t remember losing because we couldn’t stop a simple hook route to a slow white guy.

September 16th, 2012 at 5:59 pm
Reporter to Knapp- you added your personal to the Offense which you felt comfortable with? It appears since you cut your own son from the roster you dont give a damn about anyone?? True?
September 16th, 2012 at 6:01 pm
I dub it the “Dirt Knapp” offense…
Carson has skills, but seems to just go with it-if the offense is doing well, he roles wiht it; if it is doing poorly, he rolls with it, but he never seems to lift up the intensity…
On defense, last week, DB’s were always a step behind, but SD poor enough not to overly exploit it. Fins exploited it.

This is the same offense that performed well with Jason Campbell last year.
The zone blocking scheme is not working. Go back to power blocking.
Dennis Allen doesn’t think that is a problem. He won’t be here next year if he doesn’t figure out that it is.
Hue Jackson was a much better OC. It’s obvious after 6 game.

I agree. You can’t take the sack.
I’m still not getting how a 6 yd route takes much longer than an 8, when the QB “clock” has already run down and he’s moving to buy time to make a throw.

Players seem to take on the personality of their coach. Dennis Allen must stop looking like a professor/geek on the sideline and get on somebody ass every once in a while. Take control of your team DA!! Carson Palmer got out-played by a rookoe quarterback and that is a shame. Also, the Raiders should go back to the power blocking scheme instead of the zone blocking scheme.

Ditch the ZBS, and we might be ok.

It doesnt do any good to break down stats. This roster is terrible. Other than McFadden, who is not being utilized, there are no playmakers, game changers or game breakers. Nothing. Palmer looks old and completely ineffective. Dennis Allen, im afraid, was not ready to be a HC. He only looks the part. He brings NOTHING to the team from what I see. Horrible hire..

Sorry, I didn’t mean it in a quantity sense. I meant one good time as a Raider fan outweighs a stretch of bad times. Its like that for the majority of NFL teams. Football has been around for how many years? But the most titles anybody has won is 6.
Sports is an emotionally abusive addiction all around. Cus more than likely the season isn’t gonna end the way you want it and its gonna suck. The Raiders have gone out of their way to lose over the past decade but anytime they win it feels great because I know I’ve put time into rooting for this team. It’s all just a big money machine but growing up The Raiders were a bit different. I respect the history too much to care about other teams, even if The Raiders aren’t what they were.
I understand btching about the team because I do it too, but I was referring to people jumping ship.

September 16th, 2012 at 6:37 pm
He sucked as a DC in Denver… their defense was ranked 24th or something like that. He never head coached a team. He hired Greg frickin Knapp.
Why was this guy hired?
September 16th, 2012 at 6:39 pm
McKenzie came in all rogue like he was going to ” clean ” things up and change the Raiders image. He put his hand-picked clone of a coach in charge with no HC experience at any level. And this is what you get. Nothing..
September 16th, 2012 at 6:39 pm
Allen needs to be doing anything to spark this lame offesne.
Even Kawakami is questioning whether or not they should be starting pryor. A 6tft 6 240 pound qb who is mobile (probaly best athlete on team outside of DMAC) just sitting in plain street clothes waiting to be used.
You are telling me Tanahill who was a WR 2 yrs ago is better enough to Start at qb??
September 16th, 2012 at 6:41 pm
It appears to me that Palmer is playing the good solider saying yes this is a good system and buying into the coaches schemes etc.
McFadden is saying the same thing too.
But they have to know the retardation of this offense has been because of this new system.
September 16th, 2012 at 6:41 pm
The ZBS is the problem. Dennis Allen is too stupid to get that.
>>>>>
He’s the one that brought in Knapp, and I have a hunch it was against McKenzies best wishes.
We are stuck with Knapp and the ZBS (that McFadden OBVIOUSLY hates) for as long as Allen is coach, IMO.
When we had McF healthy last year with nearly the exact same players, we were a top ten offense.
Now we look like a NFL laughing stock. Whats changed?
Knapp and the ZBS. That’s it, oh and a BETTER QB.

McKenzies arrogance and Mark Davis’ ineptness has set Oakland back another 5 – 10yrs. I understood getting rid of Routt, Wimberley and some other contract situations but Hue got serious production out of these guys. McKenzie hated Hue’s “swagger”. Hue deserved another year but Mark Davis railroaded him..
September 16th, 2012 at 6:44 pm
Defense is the problem when u give up 35 pts. Pryor wouldn’t have outscored Miami.
Palmer was 2nd ranked passer on the NFLN scroll.
When your supposed gamebreaker is averaging only 2yds. a carry?
September 16th, 2012 at 6:45 pm
It is such a shame to see the 49ers Defense flying all over the field and playing with passion and intensity… then I think about what I saw this afternoon..

Wow, don’t know where to start.
Correct me if I’m wrong but, all we needed to do is fix the defense, and with a full training camp and getting Dmac back, our Offense was going to be Top Tier!!
This is all on Reggie, DA, and Knapp. I was one that wanted to keep Hue but understood after he was fired why Reggie did it.
Reggie will have a lot of explaining to do if we can’t turn this around, and it just begins with the offense.
I Never imagined this would be the outcome, total garbage…..

Sheesh… watching the 49ers on offense is just as bad… their running back actually has a hole and gains yards… the deep passes hit the recievers in the hands.

Correct me if I’m wrong but, all we needed to do is fix the defense, and with a full training camp and getting Dmac back, our Offense was going to be Top Tier!!
This is all on Reggie, DA, and Knapp. I was one that wanted to keep Hue but understood after he was fired why Reggie did it.
Reggie will have a lot of explaining to do if we can’t turn this around, and it just begins with the offense.
I Never imagined this would be the outcome, total garbage…..
—
Reggie’s just gonna hide and put a sign outside his office saying “It’s all Als fault”.
September 16th, 2012 at 6:50 pm
You’re killin us Knapp…you’re killin us! Please explain yourself.
September 16th, 2012 at 6:51 pm
RAIDERS need to trade for a new starting CB ,I don’t care if that means parting way with The #1 from next year …. Pat Lee cost us the game… 3rd and 6 need a first down oo just run a hitch route with this slow white dude … 3rd and 10 need a first down … Let’s run a hit route against pat lee

Defense is the problem when u give up 35 pts. Pryor wouldn’t have outscored Miami.
Palmer was 2nd ranked passer on the NFLN scroll.
When your supposed gamebreaker is averaging only 2yds. a carry?
——–
Don’t think defense is big problem. CBs obviously are problem. If offense could have got it done, defense wouldn’t have broke down so bad. Defense is better, but corners are going to be issue now.
September 16th, 2012 at 6:51 pm
Knapp = 2-14

Mark Davis essentially stabbed his father in the back. Al built the Raiders mystique and that aura no other NFL team could compare to. The moment Al died, they wanted to tear down everything the Raiders stood for. The Raiders will always be NFL royalty. Mark Davis more than anyone should not have wanted to ruin the Raider mystique..
September 16th, 2012 at 6:52 pm
Post 1114 yes there is a great prospect in Star Lotui a giant DT from Utah who is actually a top 3 prospect but we have bigger needs than DT and Matt Barkley is trash I’d trade down and get some extra picks because we have a lot of needs

BTW. Quentin Groves was HUUUUUGE in Arizonas win at Patriots. He blocked a punt that led to points that won the game in a huge upset.
We never talk about him, but he’s another one that Reggie felt we didn’t need…now he’s beating New England.
———————————-
Tell me who Groves supplants among our current LB group.
Wheeler? Burris?
September 16th, 2012 at 6:52 pm
“When your supposed gamebreaker is averaging only 2yds. a carry?”
This should speak volumes in the coaches meetings tomorrow morning. I wish I could be in that meeting and post that stat on the white board and look DA in the face and say “how are you going to fix this?”
September 16th, 2012 at 6:52 pm
To Reggie…If you can’t take the heat don’t get beat! Plain and simple! lol
September 16th, 2012 at 6:53 pm
IF raider d couldnt stop a scrub like Brian hartline.. no way they gonna be able to keep up with Antonio brown..and Mike wallace.
By this time next week we will be 0-3 .. .listening to Palmer saying.. “Just wait till we start clicking” heading in to denver .
THen will be 0-4 and rinse and repeat heading into ATLANTA lol another east coast trip lol… YIKES

I hope Reggie and DA are sitting at home some night and turn on Leno..just to relax and forget about football and Leno makes a joke about the Raiders and how bad they suck and they both get to hear what a laughingstock they turned the team back into.
It might be the only thing that’ll get through their thick skulls.

Monte Poole:
“The Dolphins, after all, looked like one of the likeliest wins on the schedule, with a new coaching staff, a rookie quarterback, a hollow secondary and one of the least imposing receiving corps in the NFL. There may not be a more pessimistic fan base.
But the Raiders were an elixir, energizing fans at Sun Life Stadium and making the Dolphins look like a well-coached, highly skilled contender.”

Reggie’s tenure could not have started any worse. I am concerned that his choice of a Head Coach will bite us in the rear end! Reggie needs to rid us of Richard Seymour’s contract ASAP! The sooner we rid ourselves of Al Davis’ players, the sooner we can become an NFL team again!

A lot of you that were defiant the minute that Knapp was hired were correct.
I was willing to give him the benefit of the doubt especially as Dmac looked good in the preseason.
A deeper problem is now it looks like Satele was a BIG loss, biggest this offseason, and oh yeah Satele was a Hue favorite.
guess HueJax wasn’t so bad after all…….

My Charger fan friend tried to offer me words of encouragement. I said to him: Dont you EVER offer me words of encouragement just because youre a Charger fan. I dont even consider you guys a “Rival”.. In the 50 yrs of us playing you guys, WE DOMINATED YOU. It was only a few years ago when you guys lucked up on Tomlinson, then drafted Rivers a couple yrs later that you guys started beating us. Other than that you cant say nothing. And how many super bowls have you guys won? Kansas City has always been our real “rival”..

===============================================
14 more games of DMAC’s “production” and there won’t exactly be a bidding war for his dubious services.
We’re seeing the evidence right here that DMac is a good system back, but not an elite runner.
An elite runner finds ways to average more than TWO FREAKING YARDS A CARRY.
Now I’m not saying that Pollack’s run-blocking schemes have been anything but awful, because they haven’t. But DMac has to produce regardless. The elite ones do.

• Oakland was a big loser Sunday in Miami, but this was an unfair situation. The Raiders were playing on a short week (they played at home Monday) and had to travel across the country to play a 1 p.m. game in one of the hottest places in the NFL in September. This is the kind of scheduling situation that teams have almost zero chance to overcome, even against rebuilding teams such as Miami.

That’s just it. The offensive scheme is NOT wrong.
Veldheer broke into this league in the ZBS.
Wisniewski was billed in the draft as a ZBS lineman.
Carlilse and Brisiel are ZBS guys all the way.
DMac played in the ZBS a ton at Arkansas.
The only two complete non-ZBS guys on offense are Barnes (who’s been lousy) and Palmer (without whom we wouldn’t have scored a point in either game — seriously, CP’s holding the entire offense together).
September 16th, 2012 at 7:26 pm
Harsh words by Monte Poole, must agree though, there is no hope for this season, that was plain to see from the get go, too many false illusions with the team.
Might as well blow it up after the second game of the season. Give Terrelle the ball and see what he can do and let’s develop for the future, but first get rid of Krappy
I know Palmer has no trade value worth whatsoever, possibly bundle a few of the fat cat losers for draft picks. No need to keep carrying the ballast burden.
They couldn’t get it done kick them out of Oaktown.

He’s not the most articulate guy on camera, but everybody who’s worked with him says he’s a first-rate talent evaluator (if I am wrong, show me ONE QUOTE from anybody who worked with him saying anything negative). He needs at least three seasons to show what he can do.
Part of the reason for our suckitude in the last decade was Al’s practice of firing everyone if they didn’t get instant results. We have to let this play out.

Gruden hasn’t coached in years, and probably never will again. He’s got a good job with way better pay and way less hours than an NFL position.

Harsh words by Monte Poole, must agree though, there is no hope for this season, that was plain to see from the get go, too many false illusions with the team.
Might as well blow it up after the second game of the season. Give Terrelle the ball and see what he can do and let’s develop for the future, but first get rid of Krappy
I know Palmer has no trade value worth whatsoever, possibly bundle a few of the fat cat losers for draft picks. No need to keep carrying the ballast burden.
They couldn’t get it done kick them out of Oaktown.
____________________________
I agree, might as well unleash TP and see what he can do. TP was the main bright spot in preseason. Looks DA and Reggie are ignoring that. They don’t even suit him up.

I’ve been a Raiders fan since 1977…If you’re such a long time fan then you would understand the frustration…knowing this team would never be in Mr. Davis’s vision. Mr. Allen Davis would never tolerate such poor playing. If Mr. Davis was alive today…do you think he would sit back and tolerate such poor coaching and playing? We can’t even score a TD in the red zone. This is not excellent football that the Late Mr. Davis envisioned.

Poor coaching? Al put everything on the coaches and didn’t hold player accountable.

Since the Preseason we have been shown two things:

Many times today Palmer had to force throws because of the pressure or play breaking down. Pryor is the exact kind of QB we need to overcome stuff like that. And when he beats the blitz by making guys look silly trying to sack him, usually DCs call less blitzes.

I’ve thought of him as well. Millen, though, had been a broadcaster. Reggie’s been a personnel guy in a top franchise.
The pattern I’m hoping we replicate would be George Young, who made some VERY unpopular decisions in his first few years (including burning a first-rounder on an unknown small-college QB named Phil Simms), but built a multiple Super Bowl winner eventually.

Hard to believe there are any “broke” teams in the NFL…
The TV deal alone is worth enough to cover the rosters and coaches.
That’s without all the other revenue streams they tap into,
Revenue is At an all time high,
And you believe the team is “broke”.
You’ve got to be joking.
September 16th, 2012 at 7:48 pm
Absolutely shocking how badly the offense has regressed.
It’s truly hard to believe.
3 points in the 2nd half. SMH.
Greg Knapp has no business being an OC.
There were 3 prime examples of his incompetence today.
I’m talking about the THREE times the Raids wound up passing short of the first down marker on third down.
It’s the same crap from Knapp over and over and over.
The first instance to DHB was pretty bad, but the one that really ticked me off was this:
3-10-OAK20 (14:17) C.Palmer pass short left to B.Myers to OAK 24 for 4 yards (K.Dansby).
If you guys remember, this is almost the same exact play that gained 2 yards on 3rd and 3 against SD immediately preceding the first blocked punt.
Not even CLOSE to succeeding. A fckng 4 yard pass on 3rd and 10.
Absolute futility and inexcusable.
This came on the Raid first posession of the 2nd half.
You could have turned off your TV right then.
Can’t win games if you can’t score points – and you won’t score points if you run plays that have NO CHANCE of gaining a first down or sustaining a drive.
This isn’t anything new with Knapp. We’ve seen it over and over. It’s why he’s a POS OC and a loser.
Hard to believe we’re stuck with this turkey considering his track record and the fact that we already had to shtcan him once before.
As ticked off and disappointed as I am, I’ll still be here next week and hoping to knock the snot out of the Mules.
Ain’t throwing in the towel no matter how bad things look.
More comments later if I can get over my nausea.

The past 2 seasons our team was 8-8. Before that the on-the field results were horrible though. If we averaged 8-8 seasons since 2000 I do not believe we would be broke.
That being said… we were 8-8 the past 2 seasons, so fixing this team should not be this much of a shock. That is unless the person (or people) doing the “fixing” are complete idiots. Anyone that would hire Knapp after his lack of success is an idiot.

Its a myriad of wannabe hip hopsters that need to take the earphones off..focus..and get the job done. Right now we are a collection of individuals..more concerned about a personal production, than an overall contribution. The opening drive for both teams spoke volumes about how this game was going to go. Miami making plays, and the Raiders making sure they didn’t make any plays…
BUT LETS MAKE SURE TO KEEP PRYOR INACTIVE>>>>HE COULDN”T POSSIBLY HELP US WIN IN ANY WAY SHAPE OR FORM>>>>>>

This team was not ready to “tear” anything. We had eight wins last season, and seven of those wins were by one score. A good team blows out bad teams. We never came close.
As for the ball-control offense: Reggie stated very publicly that the new coach would “have the right to hire any assistant he wants.” How would it look if he suddenly vetoed Knapp? Every potential coach in the NFL would see Reggie as a liar. Even if he doesn’t agree with some of the assistants, Reggie has to let his coach hire his own staff. Pollack’s hiring is on DA squarely, as is Knapp’s. If we have a disaster of a season, NOBODY can say DA didn’t get a fair shot to make his own team. IF (and I’m saying IF) DA proves not to be the answer, this would actually make it easier to hire someone else, because Reggie could point to DA and say “Hey, I let him hire his own staff and create his own gameplans, even when I didn’t agree with them. You KNOW that you’ll have no interference from me.”
We’ve been fans of a dysfunctional organization for so long, we don’t really know how a normal one operates. Well, we have a normal one now. Hopefully, we won’t have many more days this painful.
——————————————————
We won’t have any more days this painful since we won’t be favorites anymore this season. We lost to one of the worst teams in the NFL and got embaressed. We are now the worst. Any games we win this year would be a huge upset.

Correct me if I’m wrong but wasn’t it last season that you said you’re giving up on the Raiders because of a heart condition?
September 16th, 2012 at 8:05 pm
I CAN NOT accept any Pro sports franchise owner who cries ‘poor’…
If you can’t afford to field a competitive team,
Then it’s time to sell so you can provide the fans a chance to believe,
Otherwise you are just stroking your own ego at the expense of 10’s of thousands of folks who will never make 1% of what the team makes in a year…
Now that Al is gone, I have ZERO attachment to Mark, especially since he never carved out a niche within the org. I just want my kids to have team as successful as the team I grew up with in the seventies…I really could care less who owns it, as long as it stays in Oakland.

=================================================
Nobody qualified would want it. If I’m wrong, then why did we have NO qualified head coaches wanting to come work for us the last decade of Al’s life? Because they looked at his micromanaging, trigger-pulling style and decided they didn’t want it. Steve Sarkisian decided he would rather be A COLLEGE ASSISTANT than our head coach. Sean Payton turned us down to return to essentially Nick Holz’s job with the Cowboys. So we settled for guys who nobody else was calling for NFL head-coaching jobs.
If we fired Reggie now, it would be the same thing. No qualified GM candidates would want to come work for us. We’d get guys either too green or too crappy to get a GM job anywhere else. I don’t want that. And neither should you.

What a FALSE comment. Raiders sold out EVERY home game last year. Missed the playoffs by one game with the starting QB and leading NFL rusher down.
Yes, this year fans expected the playoffs. If they(Mark, Reggie) would have built on last years team and not blow the team up it would have been possible. Fix the D and cut down on the penalties should have been the theme this year.
Instead it’s complete crap.
========================================
We sold out (more or less) every home game last year. SO WHAT? That doesn’t mean we had a good team.
Yes, we missed the playoffs by one game, after losing a bunch of very winnable games against supposedly inferior teams, including a season-ending blowout to a Chargers team playing for nothing.
We were not an 8-8 team last year. That’s now obvious. We were a 5-11 or 6-10 squad with a couple of lucky wins.

Wow you are clueless. Did you watch the games last year? JC was actually on the rise and DMAC was leading the NFL in rushing. Yes the defense sucked but if all stayed healthy Raiders would have been a easy 10-6 or 11-5

If you haven’t noticed I have mainly been calling out Reggie, Coach Allen and Knapp. Besides our QB and DBs…which players have I criticized? I’m very patient with my Raiders and I pretty much know when it’s not gong to work out(I haven’t been wrong too many times). I dont mean any harm Len but I really don’t care if I lose credibility with you. What I post about my Raider is from the heart and we need to make changes soon enough. I’m not taking this crappy football coming from a talented team with terrible coaching
—————————————–
LOL
You’ve been living with it for over 10 years.
Why is it so different now?
This group is just getting started.
They are two games into a 17 week season.
To believe or imagine that heads will role after two weeks, no matter your passion, is wishfull thinking.
I’d just say that when someone yells 0-16, it sounds reactionary, hysterical, and “chicken littleish”
You know how it ended for chicken little.
******************************************************
I’m fed up because enough is enough. Don’t forget the Raiders were sometimes bad in the 80’s & 90’s…but that was a different bad because Mr. Davis made changes soon enough. If Knapp can’t adjust his play calling when his team is losing and we can’t score TDs in the redzone….which teams will they defeat? If major changes in Knapp’s scheme are not made…then we will not win a game. Plain and simple. BTW….I’ve never said the Raiders would go 0-16 until today…even when Art Shell came back to coach us the 2nd time around. I’ve never said this before….therefore, it must be something to it.
September 16th, 2012 at 8:10 pm
You guys talking how much we “sucked” the last decade forget we were 8-8 two seasons in a row.
Last yr’s 8-8 with Hue is gonna look like a SB team compared to this pos squad.
Spin it anyway you want. THIS is the worst team in football.
September 16th, 2012 at 8:11 pm

Lose the insults. I’m not insulting you, so you have no reason to insult me.
Yes, I did watch every single game last year. What I saw was a bunch of close wins, a few close losses, and a bunch of blowout losses. Against teams with inferior talent, we’d scrape out a win by our fingernails in the last two minutes or barely lose. Against teams that matched our talent level, we’d be lucky to lose by three touchdowns.

Dennis Allen will lose the players with a loss next week. Starting 0-3 will be the downfall of this coaching staff.
Knapp is killing this team as many in here knew he would from the moment he was hired.
I had high hopes for Allen, but his inability to hire competent staff along with Reggie’s purging the roster of talent has left this team at the bottom of the AFC West and the NFL.

September 16th, 2012 at 8:17 pm
1. Although I prefer power for the Raiders, the ZBS can work. The problem I see is that the defense is sitting in our gaps before we know it and we ain’t pushing anyone around.OL is beat.
2. Where is our DL pash rush? 77 showed today, that is it!
3. Huff is still a poser and wouldn’t start for anyone else.He was re-signed cause the dropoff would’ve hurt, as small as it would be.Dallas never wanted this clown.
4. Branch played like Huff today.
5. Does anyone question Al Davis’ love for drafting CB’s today? I think not.
6. Our problem on offense is the weak OL play, not Palmer.
7. No RB has a chance in this scheme until OL plays to the expected level. SD and Miami pressed the middle and we caved.
8. The OL play is the source of the lack of production by the skill players. The line needs an injection of beefcake beef, depth, and heart.
9. Any team that played Miami today needed a functional offense. We did not.
It will be interesting to see what:
1. Allen says and does this week.
2. What OL changes are introduced…
3. What CB’s we pick off the street…wont be that different cause Spencer looks like he will be out too..

Rams won today. Fins routed us. Browns have been fairly competitive. It’s ver easy to see us at the bottom of everyone’s power rankings this week and hard to blame them.
Of course, power rankings don’t mean anything … except this: we are once again a laughingstock in this league. After a two-year reprieve of decent, improving play fueled by Hue Jackson’s offense, it’s back to the days of JaMarcus and Norv and Randy Moss’ dogging it an Culpepper and McCown and Tom Walsh and Stu Schweig and Rob Ryan’s late game collapses and a soft, bottom of the league defense that can’t tackle anyone and Bill Callahan’s “Dumbest Team in America,” and Andrew Walter getting pummeled and Art Shell Part II.
I honestly thought those days were behind us, but no. Reggie and Co have brought them roaring back in in no time.

“I’m very comfortable in this scheme,” McFadden said. “I just feel like we have to get going. You hit one or two runs here, 3-yard runs here, and eventually it’s going to start popping.”
*************************
So I guess you guys can stop talking for Darren McFadden.
……………………………………
McFadden is lying.
What is going to tell the press? That his coach is an idiot???

I hope Allen and Knapp are in the office by 2:00am sharp Monday morning. They gotta get this right…they owe that to the Davis family and the dedicated fans.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Those MF’s and the rest of the staff should be at the Four Seasons Miami going over film and handing out action items for the coming week! Anything else would be unacceptable to an owner…I am looking at you Mark!
September 16th, 2012 at 8:52 pm
Im a talk for DMAC, “STOP THROWING ME 2yd PASSES”!!
September 16th, 2012 at 8:53 pm
JFB,
Those quotes mean nothing to me? You expect DMac to throw his coaches under the bus or say what he’s supposed to say and not burn any bridges.
September 16th, 2012 at 8:53 pm
No pass rush.. not this yr.. no fun. Only stupid
September 16th, 2012 at 8:54 pm
Again, where was the pass rush? Sure the DB’s are gonna get torched when you have all day to throw.
——————————————————-
I didn’t get to watch most of the 2nd half, but there seemed to be plenty of pass rush in the 1st half. Maybe the Bush runs slowed down the rush or something, I don’t know it sounds like the whole damn defense and offense just gave up after that Bush run.

He played in the ZBS at Arkansas, and now 3 of his 5 NFL seasons.
LOL at him “lying”.
September 16th, 2012 at 8:56 pm
and I dont wanna hear any “we had to go to east coast”BS man…tell that to the AZ Cardinals who went into NE and shut them down.
September 16th, 2012 at 8:57 pm
Knapp needs to talk to the media….so that we can read his reactions to see if he’s sincere.
September 16th, 2012 at 8:57 pm
Man I wish we could have got Jim harbaugh when we had a chance

WOW, some of the bloggers that said the McKenzie hire was brilliant are now calling for his head? Really?
=================================================
Exactly, because firing the GM after two games screams “stability.”

….and getting shellacked by what was supposed to be the worst team in the AFC 35-13 “screams” success.

Yo Goldie, check out some of my earlier posts around 860 and above! Were on the same page! My brother from another mother!

lol ok Danny.

The Raiders are converting 22% of 3rd downs. 31st in the NFL
September 16th, 2012 at 9:03 pm
They can’t convert 3rd downs, and can’t score in the Red Zone.

With all being said…I’m just angry right now. I don’t know what’s gonna happen to my Raiders next. I just don’t know what to think. Will we go without a win? I just want the Raiders to be dominate again. Then thay bring P. Manning over to our division. Whew…when will things go in the Raiders favor?
—————————————–
Please.
Stop the hyper ventilation and take a pill.
If they crash and burn this season will you go out and hang yourself?
I hope not.
******************************************************
Don’t be stupid…Old Man. Why would I hang myself over football? Get real dude! There are millions of dedicated Raiders that feel the way I do and you choose me to reply to. Get over it Len! The Raiders suck, stink and suck some more but I’m still cheering for them.
September 16th, 2012 at 9:12 pm
Of our 16 first downs, 14 were passing. Pathetic.
We were 1-12 on third down conversions. Pathetic.
We had about 400 yards of total offense but gave up 452…
September 16th, 2012 at 9:15 pm
5 penalties for 42 yards today, not bad. Any team can overcome that.
September 16th, 2012 at 9:15 pm
Fellas, the sun will rise tomorrow. Peace.

Some people talking about Carson Palmer throwing for 375 yards. All he is doing is padding his stats with these dink and dunk passes. How about throwing for some touchdowns. I would rather see him throw for 175 yards as long as he can throw for 3 touchdowns.
