Update on Heyward-Bey, story on scary sequence
By Steve Corkran
Sunday, September 23rd, 2012 at 7:09 pm in Oakland Raiders.
OAKLAND – Some kind of sign, that’s all the Raiders wanted. Finally, after an agonizing wait, injured wide receiver Darrius Heyward-Bey raised his right hand in the air as if to signal that he was all right after being drilled in the head by a Pittsburgh Steelers defender Sunday.
The sold-out crowd erupted into applause once they received the sign from Heyward-Bey.
A Raiders spokesman said Heyward-Bey is in stable condition and that he was being kept overnight at Mt. Eden Medical Center in Castro Valley.
Thus inspired by Heyward-Bey’s arm-raising, the Raiders scored a touchdown four plays later and went on for a 34-31 victory at the Coliseum.
“It meant a lot,” Raiders running back Mike Goodson said. “He let you know that he’s all right, that he still had that fighting spirit.”
The Raiders channeled that spirit the rest of the game, using the helmet-to-chin hit by Steelers safety Ryan Mundy as added motivation.
“When we got in the kickoff huddle (after the touchdown),” Goodson said, “it was all, ‘Let’s go, DHB!’ They took our guy out. Nothing against them, but you get something out of that. It just lets you know that he’s all right.”
Raiders coach Dennis Allen said after the game that the only update he had on Heyward-Bey was that he suffered a concussion.
The injury was severe enough for him to be taken to a local hospital, yet no one called it a malicious play by Mundy.
Heyward-Bey suffered his injury as he attempted to catch a pass from quarterback Carson Palmer early in the fourth quarter, as two Steelers defenders closed in from either side. The officials didn’t call a penalty on the play.
Mundy’s helmet caught Heyward-Bey on the chin, knocking him unconscious and resulting in him hitting the turf face first.
He lay on the field for more than 10 minutes as numerous medical people tended to him. Ultimately, his head and neck were immobilized before he was placed on a body board, carted off the field and taken to the hospital.
Mundy said the location of his hit on Heyward-Bey was unintentional.
“I didn’t go in there trying to hit him with my helmet,” Mundy said. “Things like that happen so fast. He may have come down to the level of my helmet. I have to see the replay, I don’t know. … Unfortunately, things like that do happen. From my standpoint, they’re never intentional.”
Heyward-Bey’s injury underscored the perilous nature of the NFL.
“We always talk about, win, lose or draw, anytime you’re able to walk off the field, that’s a win,” Raiders defensive tackle Richard Seymour said. “Because we play a dangerous game. It’s in my opinion the best game in the world, but it’s one of the most violent.”
Heyward-Bey is in his fourth season with the Raiders. He was their first-round pick in the 2009 NFL draft.
Coincidentally, he suffered a similarly scary injury last season in a game against the Minnesota Vikings.
Again, Heyward-Bey’s head and neck were immobilized last Nov. 20, and he was carted off the field.
At one point Sunday, there were 10 or more medical people tending to Heyward-Bey, with teammates and fans unable to see what was going on.
“Yeah, it was definitely tense,” Raiders long-snapper Jon Condo said. “You couldn’t see him. They had him blocked off, with the cart in the way. You got to take a knee and send a prayer out to him, pray for his safety.”
Goodson suffered a neck injury during training camp in August. He, too, was placed on a body board with his head and neck immobilized before being transported to a hospital.
Goodson was released the same day after tests and observation. He said he expects Heyward-Bey to rebound the way he did.
“Darrius is a ballplayer, man,” Goodson said. “When you’re a ballplayer like that, it just comes natural. So, he’ll get back. I’m sure he’ll have to go through his treatments and all that, but he’s a professional. He’ll be back.”

DHB needs some good luck to come his way. He has been constantly maligned and has toughed it out. He has improved every year. If there is any justice in this world, he deserves some.
September 23rd, 2012 at 7:22 pm
Here’s hoping for a full quick recovery for DHB, my prayers are for your quick full recovery.
September 23rd, 2012 at 7:23 pm

So true. You never hear a bad word from him or see negative body language on the field. All you hear is how hard he works and the numbers show improvement every year.
DHB= a class act WR.

OK fellas, can we now stop complaining about our offense or OC? We just need to shore up our D. No pass rush whatsoever. Peyton will kill us if we can’t rush him. If we can do that, we have a team. Great win!
September 23rd, 2012 at 7:28 pm
After McFadden’s long TD run, they showed the bench and DHB was walking around pumping everyone up, slapping fives and such.
It was pretty inspirational to me sitting on my couch.
September 23rd, 2012 at 7:29 pm
Gotta say, we need DHB back.

Lets be objective, today the ofense got ignited by the no huddle
when they went regular huddle they didnt do as much
Maybe knapp will let palmer dictate tempo
September 23rd, 2012 at 7:30 pm
I think we would of had more sacks if it wasnt for Big Ben scrambling all over the place. We did get the sacks when it mattered.
September 23rd, 2012 at 7:30 pm
Knapp still sucks.
Steelers are punks coached by punk (dude was clownin on the sideline while DHB was getting loaded on a cart).
The Defensive Backfield needs a ton of help.

I’ve been tearing Knapp a new one but only because I haven’t seen him be succesful since, what, 10 years ago?
We have weapons on offense and despite what some clowns around hear preach, a heluva QB! It would be hard NOT to be succesful with our personel on O, which is why so many have already slipped the noose over Knapps head.
He still had some questionable play calls today but they put 34 points on the board. Good job!
September 23rd, 2012 at 7:38 pm
Houston runs the same Offense as we do pretty much.
Foster ran for 105 vs Donks Defense.
DA will have a few tricks fl his old team.
Carson and the no-huddle plus DMAC who always runs good vs Denver.
Got my tickets, I’ve walked out of there a winner the last 4 x, let’s make it 5!!

Being a Raider fan, I want everyone to succeed. That includes Knapp. I’m rooting for all of them. I don’t understand this penchant for some to root against certain players or coaches just so they can say “I told you so”.

Man our corners were gettin abused…whew, talk about gettin cooked all day……we showed a lotta heart to fight thru all that & still get the W. Kudos to Lee who might’ve been the most abused who still surprisngly had enough confidence left to make a helluva play on that strip.
Was good to see Carson standing tall in the pocket today too & keeping some plays alive. That TD pass to Moore looked blown up early & he showed some metal there.
Very proud of the heart they showed today.

September 23rd, 2012 at 7:40 pm
Only thing I wasn’t liking were plays being called on offense with barely any seconds left on the play clock. Don’t really have to try and get a jump on the snap count when that occurs.
September 23rd, 2012 at 7:41 pm
When is Spencer supposed to be back, have they said?
September 23rd, 2012 at 7:41 pm
Thankfully God is answering our prayers for your speedy recovery Mr. D. Heyward-Bey.
You made two excellent plays today; first your touchdown catch keeping both feet inbounds, second, which deserves extra credit, your sideline catch wherein once again as the replay revealed you kept both feet inbounds, that you rallied Palmer to run a no huddle play so as Tomlinson had no time to throw the red flag and challenge the reception was excellent leadership and did not go unnoticed.

Best victory since the 12th man game against Houston last season. We do need CBs bad Back n Black. I rather get beat in man to man than watch them give up so many easy, non- contested receptions.
Great TE play, right now we should be using more 2 TE sets since our WRs are so,banged up

Brady’s killing me right now. Had a wager on Roethlisberger to lead the league in passing yards today and he’s the leader in the clubhouse with 384, but Brady is approaching 300 yards already with a quarter+ left to play. Bummer.
At least I went heavy on the Steelers-Raiders over and even put a bit on the Raiders to cover.
September 23rd, 2012 at 7:57 pm
I expect Criner to be activated next week against Denver. Give DHB a full two weeks to recover. We could tell he was dazed going to the ground when his head hit the ground, his body was already limp.
Moore is the Raiders’ best WR, DHB is our #2 we will need him all-season.
Hagan & Streater have proven the team can trust them to be clutch.

96. I had the same thought DJJ. In the past it seems that a bonehead play or penalty would always haunt them in critical times.
Today was different. Even when they were down 10 in the 3rd it didn’t seem like the team was out of it. They didn’t shoot themselves in the foot.

Raiders TEs have made plays every game.
Meyers solid pass catching skills, reminiscence of Casper even.
Ausberry another big catch and racking up yards after catch.

@@@@@@@@@
You would think they could at least fill in the area between the bases. Like they do in domes. The only spots that have dirt is around the bases, the rest is all turf. If they did that I think only the 2nd base area would be dirt as the 1st and 3rd base areas would be beyond the sidelines.

Unbelievable crowd out there today. Damn, it was really hot out there & ended up getting sun-burnt. There had to be 10,000 Steeler fans in the crowd today. That place was packed EVERYWHERE! That really amazing considering our earlier offensive performance and the fact that the game was televised locally.
Things I saw today. The defense was great against the run and played basic bend & not break zone against the pass. Steelers owned the first half. Palmer & the Raiders owned the second half & the game. The refs missed a ton of calls but those they did call went in our favor. Palmer was really on fire today. A lot of pinpoint great passes. He was really on. The ZBS still sucks but with Palmer doing the no huddle and audibling out of initial play made our offense look a little more efficient. D-Wow looked a little rusty but did make a couple of great catches. And, Hagen made a couple of great catches that were gold. All in all, two different games (1st half/2nd half).

What a game. The Nation needed this one badly. The Steelers lost to turnovers and penalties. That used to be us. Palmer had that no huddle thing flying today. Hope this calms down all these 2-14 and 4-12 predictors. Take that Mike Silver.

Raiders defeat Denver, Raiders will either be all alone in 2nd place or. 3 way tie for first.
San Diego plays Kansas City.

The Raiders need to hit Manning hard and early or he will carve up this weak secondary.
Manning won’t be able to move and extend plays like Big Ben did so that will be in Raiders favor.
September 23rd, 2012 at 8:45 pm
These new refs do NOT understand illegal contact, defensive holding, pass interference & personal fouls – helmet to helmet contact. DHB’s hit should have been called but wasn’t. No doubt there will be an enormous fine by the commissioner’s office. I wouldn’t be surprised to see a $25,000 fine on that one.
On a positive note with the new refs, Most of the calls they do make seem to fall in our favor.
September 23rd, 2012 at 8:45 pm

Love it. Really think the injury sort of blunted the Steeler momentum and the Raiders rallied for the cause – great game against a classic nemesis. The kind of think that can turn around a season….but lets not get ahead of ourselves – still will need to hit the waiver-wire for DBs or look at Brandion Ross as a starter.
Hell of a play by Pat Lee to get the strip

My buddy offered me a “free” ticket to today’s game. And like a dumbass I turned it down. Being that I live in Long Beach I didnt want to make that long drive home pondering an 0 – 3 start. I need to ban myself from O.co for the season…
September 23rd, 2012 at 8:46 pm
Huff will get better as will Lee each game and practice.
Raiders’ pass rush will be the key against Denver.
We have had one sack each game so far, we will need at least four in the first three quarters to keep Peyton from picking our secondary and lb coverage apart.
Raiders should be able to run all day on Denver’s D.

I have so much more respect for Meyers now. That kid can flat out play the TE position. Can’t believe how much he has improved. He made a few clutch catches today with defenders all over him. They need to play more Reece, Gordon, Meyers and Ausberry in our jumbo pkg. We can do some damage with these guys.

This is why fans drastically underrated Wimbley. All anybody wanted to talk about was his sack total and how it wasn’t elite so he was average. But Wimbley consistently brought pressure off the edge on basically every down, which forced opposing QBs to step up into the onslaught of our interior push. We were actually in the upper echelon in the league in sacks last year. Wimbley’s absence and the absence of a legitimate quick pressure is really hurting this D.

I like Wheeler a helluva a lot better than Wimbley, but I agree that this team needs a pass rush. As bad as the secondary looks, it would look better if we could get some consistent pressure on the QB. (if not consistent, at least when it mttered the most.)

I like Wheeler too. Said from Day 1 it was a good signing. I’m just saying, you’ve gotta bring quick pressure from somewhere. Often when Wimbley was bringing pressure it was as a DE in obvious passing situations.
Not saying Wimbley had to be 100% a keeper, but we really need some kind of speed from the DE spot. I assume that’s why we’ve looked at Andre Carter a couple of times. But we really do need to do something. Jarvis Moss isn’t elite, but he may be a decent fit right now. Just somebody who can get thrown in the mix to bring speed.
What about Ihenacho? He looked real good in preseason and could maybe fill that role. Has he been seeing any time these first three games.

Pretty sure Curry was the speed off the edge option you guys are talking about.
Wheeler and Burris just need to do a better job of getting to the passer. Same with ShoNasty and Toffelson.

As I recall, he actually stood to make more money by the Raiders cutting him, because we owed him several mil in doing so and then he was free to go out and sign a new contract with another team. So expecting him to take some kind of paycut was naive. It’s a business and these guys have a limited window to maximize what they can make. Expecting a guy to take, I don’t know, say $4 million per year less out of some kind of team loyalty is not realistic.

Chris,never said he had to take a cut,but he could have reworked his deal but he wouldn’t budge.As I said,the org. wanted him back but obviously they didn’t feel he was worth what it would have taken to keep him and to be honest I don’t believe he is missed that much.

TSR,when they showed a bunch of them in the 4th qtr they all had that smug look on their faces.Would have loved to have seen them walking out with their tails between their legs.
============================================
Quite a sight. Some clown had the nerve to raise his terrible towel in the corridors after the game. I was too far and the corridors were packed but was hoping someone would snatch that p1ss colored rag and tie it around his face.
That’s not the worst part though. Just behind the black hole, some scumbag was waving his terrible towel while DHB was down and unconscious. I saw a policemen jump over the black hole wall from the field. I was hoping it was because a Raider fan pummeled the twat.
September 23rd, 2012 at 9:39 pm
Who predicted the Raiders to win?
I did!
My prediction was 16-13. More scoring than I thought, but my Raiders by 3 spread was right on the money.
Is that guy keeping track of predictions this year?

I predicted Raiders to win by 3, late field goal. Look it up hoes.
September 23rd, 2012 at 9:41 pm
if i’m dhb, i retire. how many players have been carted off the field with their head and neck immobilized twice? he’s gonna be out for a while, maybe the season, and i would encourage anyone to retire who took two blows like that. simply not worth it. and i’m a dhb fan, so it’s not hating.
btw, i predicted last night the steelers would “gannon” us and throw 50 times. search for it.

Duck, Raiderman99 was another one. He said Knapp would be fired mid-season.
September 23rd, 2012 at 9:42 pm
Duck you missed zero.We only won because of their injuries according to him.
September 23rd, 2012 at 9:43 pm
Raiderman99 was rooting against the team today. He was promising hostile protest by fans against Knapp all week. Salivating for disaster.

———————
Sorry. I think that came out wrong. I figure most didn’t know or remember the specifics of the negotiation and the fact that there was less than zero incentive for him to take a cut. When I said to expect him to take a cut because of that situation would be naive, I meant if one already knew about the dynamics of the negotiation and just wanted him to take less for the best interests of our cap situation.

I’m not gonna make excuses. I have been severely down on Knapp with the thought that we shouldn’t have changed the offense to suit his “scheme”. I have been down DA for hiring him. I also did not like being told to be “patient”.
I did not expect that he would have his breakout game agaisnt the Pittsburgh Steelers…even with Polamalu and Harrison out.
I am happily eating crow and enjoying it.

Earlier in the week we knew Troy and Harrison would be out. I didn’t hear these guys saying, “Knapp may have a big game this week but only because of Steeler injuries”. They were saying Steelers would crush Knapp’s offense, injuries or not. So they don’t get that excuse.

I’m not sure what we saw today was Knapp’s offense. Palmer audibled out of called play a lot. The offense we saw today was at Palmer’s direction. He’s the one that really called the plays. If Palmer continues to throw like he id today, the naysayers will have to admit that he is in fact, elite and the trade for him was a good deal for us.

September 23rd, 2012 at 9:52 pm
funny how a game changes EVERYTHING in here. i told everyone palmer was the team mvp thus far and he was playing great.
but the lack of pass rush and poor coverage is gonna be a huge problem for the season cuz there’s no real way to fix it.
the line shows no moves whatsoever, other than a bullrush. u never see anyone spin or rip. and what purpose do francies and adams have on the team if they can’t actually play corner? lee, hanson, huff? oh boy.

Gio may be a back-up but he is around the ball more than Huff.Maybe that says more about Huff than Gio.During the game they mentioned that DA said Gio deserved to be on the field,he was one of the 11 best defenders.I don’t particularly like any of the after the play antics,but that is part of the game now-a-days.

The plays used in audibles are Knapp’s plays, too. What did you think, Palmer was yelling, “ok…Moore, you go deep”. Turns the other way: “bey, you run, like, a button hook route, and come like 10 yards in, HEY, STOP LISTENING STEELERS!”
September 23rd, 2012 at 9:55 pm

Um Knapp has always been crap. Everywhere he has been he has been crap. He was one good game and you want to give him mouth to dick recesitation. Go sit in the corner
September 23rd, 2012 at 9:56 pm
also, please note the ABSENCE of my name on that petition to fire knapp. i wasn’t thrilled with his playcalling at times, but i felt it was the O-line’s fault more than anything. and recognize that the run game still isn’t really fixed. take awy the huge run by dmc and what do we have? so-so. but at least there were some creases.
one thing to note about our struggles is that miami and arizona appear to have very good defenses and as i stated in this blog, we had to give them credit.
September 23rd, 2012 at 9:57 pm
Brady and Manning used audibles their whole career. No credit to coaches? Give me a break. Their audible packages are designed by OC. Progression of plays, situations, etc.
September 23rd, 2012 at 9:57 pm
The first TD is prime example. CP3 audibled out of whatever in favor of DMAC and a good matchup. Great call actually. Hedy veteran schytt.

Gio is around the ball more because QB choose to throw to where he is more than they throw to where Huff is.
Look, I like Gio. He’s grown on me. Solid player. Great football IQ, which this defense sorely needs.
I have a much bigger bone to pick with Branch. He needs to stop giving up huge plays!!!

I won’t say Knapp’s offense is better,but I will say it can be just as good.Today is was as good as any O we had last year and we actually put up points in the 2nd half,unlike last year.

No Knapp gets credit for finally implementing a mixed offensive scheme with a mix of Power and zone blocking, which we have all been clamoring for since week 1.
He also gets credit for finally allowing his veteran QB to use audibles and a no huddle offense which we also have been clamoring for since week 1.
Palmer gets credit for executing near flawlessly today and exploiting the Steeler defense and putting his team in the right situations on the field today.
Knapp was on the hot seat and he delivered. It is a testament to the unity and collective outcry of the Raider Nation because the game Knapp called today was a complete opposite of the first two games of the season.

i don’t even understand the comment. palmer has been playing great. some idiots were saying he was the problem. he played great again and we won b/c some other things happened, like we got some good runs.
but the corners/pass rush were still poor and that will be a mainstay unless we get andre carter soon, and somehow the CB’s get better. but a pass rush would help that b/c the qb wouldn’t stand back there looking downfield like he’s trying figure out what to eat on a menu in a french restaurant.

I am sure that the outcry from this blog crossed the ears of the freakish spawn who called big Reg and warned him that unless Knapp opened the game up and allowed the players to perform in their comfort zone there was a chance that the ax handle was being readied, the tar was being boiled, and gobs of feathers were pulled out of numerous pillows to be directed at the freakish spawn, Reggie, DA, and Knapp.
Congratulations Raiders especially CP3 who showed something today.

Yes. You were. I think your direct quote was “The Raiders will beat the Steelers on Sunday”.
I couldn’t see how we could do it with the way the offense was going, AND the cb situation.
Somehow we overcame being decimated by Big Ben in the passing game AND the offense clicked.
More than that, this team showed alot of grit and refused to quit.
The defense actually came through in the clutch..That was huge. Instead of getting a meaningless sack in the 1st quarter and then disappearing when it really counts…today, it was the opposite.

_______________________________________________________
No. It would have been dumb to do nothing and allow things to continue as they were.
If you can’t see that the collective outcry from the Raider Nation was instrumental in causing Knapp to call a remarkable different game today because he realized that he was under a severe microscope, then you are the one who is dumb.
___-
DUDE it had nothin to with you guys BS over-reacting petition after 2 freaking weeks… The team just played better, they ran , the throwed , the blocked , and they executed better than previous 2 weeks, and had the Raiders lost today because of our D , I’m pretty sure all you fire KNapp Idiot’s would have been here in full force even though we scored over 30, you guys never admit that you guys over-react too much and that the team as a whole also needed to play better…I’m not defending Knapp , yes he was at fault… but to put the entire Blame on him was unfair, it’s entirely possible we may never score 30 points again but to come here act like this was fluke or give credit to some one else for this and still don’t eat crow because you guys had an agenda since day 1 is kinda Immaturish
September 23rd, 2012 at 10:22 pm
it’s actually true that this blog’s opinions reach the raiders coaches, since corkran and jerry use this blog to gauge the collective attitudes of raiders fans, and ask questions accordingly. we have seen this past week that knapp and DA and reggie were asked about the ZBS.
also, i’ve noticed a disturbing trend of many gays in the city walking around with cucumbers in their speedos.
so yes, the blog reaches it’s intended audience.

I am sure that the outcry from this blog crossed the ears of the freakish spawn who called big Reg and warned him that unless Knapp opened the game up and allowed the players to perform in their comfort zone there was a chance that the ax handle was being readied, the tar was being boiled, and gobs of feathers were pulled out of numerous pillows to be directed at the freakish spawn, Reggie, DA, and Knapp.
Congratulations Raiders especially CP3 who showed something today.

The entire country saw that Greg Knapp was grossly misusing his weapons on offense and called him out on it after the Miami loss.
That collective outcry caused Knapp to devise a different scheme that played to the STRENGTHS of his players, which is EXACTLY what most of us have been clamoring for from the beginning!

greg knapp wasn’t misusing his weapons as much as the o-line was getting dominated. hard to run when there are no lanes and hard to get creative with passing when ur qb is throwing from his back foot after a three step drop. today the line played better. period. it allowed knapp’s offense to do more.

September 23rd, 2012 at 10:32 pm
Let’s not get too excited about Knapp. Our offense had 15 plays ( 5+ mins TOP) in the 3rd quarter. We did score and capitalize on our opportunities, so I’ll give him credit for that, but his GL play calling still needs improvement IMO.
September 23rd, 2012 at 10:33 pm
Good to see knapp listened to the nation and the media and made an adjustment to the strengths of cp3 and DMAC. Maybe now he sees what kind of O he’s really got and he was receptive to cp3’s input. To bad it took two losses and an outcry to get it to this point. We should be 3-0.
Great job by Palmer calling his own game and the no huddle. And it was good to see a happy DMAC. Team flat out had balls today.

Huff was getting abused out there in the first half.
———————————————————-
Abused???
Lining up 10 yds off and Ben quick passing him is getting abused?
Once he adjusted and started playing up, I think the only pass he gave up was another quick pass in the 3rd qtr for the TD fumble recovert.
========================================
Ben repeatedly went to his side and we don’t exactly have a shut down corner playing on the other side. I’d like to see the stats though. I may be wrong but it seemed that very often when Ben completed a pass to a receiver in the first half, it was Huff’s guy. Not like we had 1 guy playing back and the other playing up.
You do have a valid point though, J. The D strategy seems to be ‘don’t get beat deep’. Even when they were playing up as you stated, they often backed off just before the snap.

I don’t expect Allen and Knapp to publicly come out and admit they made a mistake the first two weeks.
But they don’t need to. The results on the field speak for itself, and that’s all we really want….WINS!
Power runs, audibles, no huddle…that was what we saw LAST YEAR under Saunders and Hue Jackson.
With Saunders still on staff, it would be foolish to think that his input wasn’t solicited for today’s game when we saw glimpses of last years offensive scheme in today’s game!

Palmer didn’t miss wide open targets, and i don’t think it had anything to do with play calling , and i’m pretty sure Knapp wants to be successful here and score as many points , i don’t think he magically changed schemes in less than 6 days to adjust to his players, well even if he did don’t you think he’s a mad genius then, and you guys are stupid for calling for his head.. I don’t get the blame or credit for KNapp , i just want you guys to keep you eyes open and slowly digest every freaking drive and put blame every where , when we fail to score on a drive because Streater fumbles, you guys blame Knapp, when we fail to Mxfadden going because our line is getting blown back , you guys blame Knapp, if we fail to score , because Palmer didn’t throw the pass at the right time , you guys blame knapp… i just don’t get overeact and blame 1 person for the failure of the O or D based on a person’s past or just freaking act like teams should start the season on fire from the starting week
September 23rd, 2012 at 11:00 pm
Raiders no doubt will see the success of palmers game plan today and we should see more of it as the season goes by. Palmer is at his best with the no huddle. Palmer was a gamer today. And no matter what the knapp apologists think, Oakland won in spite of ‘the scheme we’re supposed to be patient with’.
September 23rd, 2012 at 11:00 pm
Nice to pull out the miracle win today despite Knapps crappy play calling.
It was all about Palmer coming through big with him running the no huddle and changing a lot of Knapps plays at the line in the 2nd half.
The secondary still needs to play better and I don’t think the Tarver blitzed enough.
The turnovers were huge and they still need to run more power blocking schemes ahead of the lateral sideways ZBS schemes.
Reece still needs to be utilized more.
We need to see more screens on offense as well.

Here is a clue for some of you-when Palmer calls an audible and goes to a different play,it is still a Knapp play.Believe it or not ,that is why they have game plans.That is why they have meetings.These things are set up in advance-if you see this change the play to that.You do realize this,right?

Raiders no doubt will see the success of palmers game plan today and we should see more of it as the season goes by. Palmer is at his best with the no huddle. Palmer was a gamer today. And no matter what the knapp apologists think, Oakland won in spite of ‘the scheme we’re supposed to be patient with’.

We won because we played better today.. Better protection, better blocking , better every thing than the past 2 weeks .. we didn’t magically start doing all those things better because Knapp heard the outcry of the RAIDER NATION and he adjusted his play, it just had to do with being more familiar with the O and having healthy starters for 2 weeks in a row finally…
I’m not trying to defend Knapp, but i think it’s not right to put the whole blame on him for losing first 2 weeks ago, because our Oline sucked, and Receivers dropped passed , Palmer missed open receivers , Fumbles and other miscues.. we did better on every aspect of the offense… those long vertical plays only worked because palmer had time to throw… guys got open , etc , etc and now you guys come here and claim , maybe saunders took over and changed the scheme mid week and these players who take almost 2 months to get to know all the things of a scheme and the playbook learned all that stuff in a week and is the reason why our blocking , catching , running and passing improved? LMAO
September 23rd, 2012 at 11:12 pm
Lefty, I do realize that and I think Palmer has been doing it almost as long as Knapp. Not only that, he has actually been DOING it. Lends credence to his input.
September 23rd, 2012 at 11:12 pm
Huge game next week. Glad the regular refs won’t be there to coddle golden boy Manning.
September 23rd, 2012 at 11:14 pm
Maybe now with Saunders and Palmer and DMAC designing the game plan we’ll see more of Reece and better use of the TE’s. Today’s game was a thing of beauty. We didn’t have to suffer the horizontal passing game and DMAC getting stuffed as soon as he breaks huddle. The win today was huge.
September 23rd, 2012 at 11:15 pm
Outside division rivals, Raiders defeating Pittsburgh most meaningful regular season game of the year.
September 23rd, 2012 at 11:21 pm
I’m not here to call Knapp a mad genius but I’m not that narrow minded either to not see the whole team was just not doing it’s jobs better and i believe despite Knapp’s short comings our team had a lot of chances to put more points on the board 1st 2 games… but they didn’t do all the things, i don’t know what it had to do with , new receivers or not knowing the playbook for most guys , or most guys were not familiar with the scheme yet , i really don’t know what it was but i’m not going to be close minded here and try to make 1 guy the goat for our failures over that time , as you guys seen today , we did all the things a offense has to do better, and we ended up scoring more points , its just simple as that .. you don’t have to a mad scientist to figure that out..
September 23rd, 2012 at 11:21 pm
Jesus H Christ-of course your QB has input.Knapp admitted he talked to McFadden for his input.He admitted he asked Palmer about the stealers due to the fact he has played against them so often.That is how teams operate.Does anyone actually,I mean really,believe Palmer went into the game and said “F*ck Knapp’s plays.We are going to run this or we are going to do that”?Mc20 hit the nail on the head earlier-these guys have had an agenda against Knapp from day 1 and they will come up with anything before letting go.
September 23rd, 2012 at 11:22 pm
Palmer is a Heisman winner and has been a QB managing games a lot longer than knapp. Just cuz an architect can design a house sure as hell doesn’t mean he can build it. I got way more confidence in CP3 and DMAC and Saunders. The results speak volumes.

Oh so now Saunders designed the game plan and changed the scheme and taught the OL to block better, and taught the receivers how to get more open and taught all of them not to screw up , etc , etc in less than 6 days and that’s why we won??? Nice analogy lol

QBs, Peyton and Schaub received about 4 or 5 roughing the passer calls, I expect owners to realize these replacement refs are jeopardizing their most valuable asset.
Whatta ya know, just in time for Peyton to face the Raiders for the first time playing for Denver; remember last season, Suh’s suspension ended just before Detroit’s game against our Raiders.

It woulda been stupid not to. Especially with his job at stake. I’m sure Saunders and DMAC were there too and Reggie standing in the corner with a cold stare.

ARE you stupid or something , do you also believe that he asked his OL , what blocking scheme do they like and adjusted the block scheme over the week and they blocked better? or asked the receivers what plays do they know about, so they didn’t run a wrong route, or asked them , how should Palmer throw to you guys , so you guys won’t drop passes, or asked the freaking receivers how should i let you guys hold onto the ball and not fumble ? are you seriously that dumb and stupid.. we just played better in all aspects of the O , and that’s why we scored more points, it’s simple as that… and we didn’t do those things better the first 2 weeks .. maybe it all had to do with not being familiar with the O yet but whatever it is , we scored more , because we did those things better , you know the things that a team needs to do to score touchdowns in this league??????
September 23rd, 2012 at 11:35 pm
The hater label is being given out to any moron that makes assumptions and automatically blames Palmer. That’s a hater.
It started with comments about Palmer throwing to “open space” in regards to the INT today. If DMoore doesn’t slip on the infield dirt, that’s a 17 yard gain, but people were ready to hang Palmer for it….based on what they saw from their couch.

The difference? Palmer checks out of plays that Krappy Knappy calls, because Palmer knows by now Knapps play calls suck.
Reads the defense and checks into a far more appropriate play….especially in the 2nd halfs of games, because that is when most of Knapps script is done and he doesn’t make good adjustments.
Palmer needs to continue to do more of that and run the no huddle if this offense is going to have a chance.
I heard something disturbing today during todays telecast and Fouts said Saunders main job this year is to just work the replays and help Allen on play challenges??
I hope that is not Saunders only roll on this team, because it would be waste of offensive knowledge.

I truly believe we won because Palmer had more input and more freedom to call the game as he saw it. Sure he has to use plays in the play book. That’s not my point. Knapp was out if the picture with the no huddle where he couldn’t call plays fit losses and he takes to long to get the plays in. Palmer is in the game and has a feel for it, calls what he sees and gets results. We won today and the QB and the RBI had more to do with it than an OC calling the plays.

Listened dude, the reason why we ran no huddle more today and did all the other things better was because the team is getting more familiar with the O and Scheme , like i said before, the slow start mostly has to do with team not being on same page and not knowing the playbooks and scheme and stuff… so more the time pass by, you can expect this no-huddle more , is it co-incidence Hagan played more better in his 2nd game with this team ? is it co-incidence , that Moore was the target more in his 2nd game back or is it co_incidence the whole group of Wide receivers got more open because we finally had our starting wide receivers start for more than 1 week in a row? and HAGAN and streater played in their respective roles?
is it co-incidence our Line player better today ? no it all just had to do with more time in this O Scheme and stuff we’re trying to do …

Like i just said , Palmer have freedom to do anything , use of no_huddle and stuff was dictated by how much of the offense the team grasped and how much more familiar the receivers were with the playbook, so the more we play , the more we will be able to run no huddle and up-tempo O, look for us to run more no huddle next week , by mid-season our team would be a well oiled machine…

Like i said, I’m not defending Knapp , just pointing out the stupidity of you guys for calling for his head based on 2 games.. it’s not called checking out of his plays , its called adjusting to what the D is showing and calling your best shots, most successful O’s are successful because their QB’s can play chess matches with D’s at the LOS, so now are going to say, Payton Manning, never likes what play his OC called because he always checks out of a play? are you going to say the quarterbacks have their own different playbook or magically create plays at LOS? LMAO , you guys just can’t get over the Agenda’s .. I’m defending what i said all along , i said the whole team needs to play better and do better job at executing plays and etc, i also said that the team does not have full grasp over the scheme and playbook and the more time they spend in it the more better they will get, I’m simple stating they scored more because players executed more , yet you guys are here attacking us because , we are not giving some one like Saunders or other people credit .. like seriously you guys think a team can magically switch schemes, playbooks , or a quarterback can create his own plays and go over with the whole team on signals and stuff to in less than 6 days and execute it so flawlessly? I hope you guys aren’t just that dumb… and can finally see what was the real problem and stop blaming 1 guy over everything

No according to these guys , The whole Offense along with Saunders held a secret meeting , and they discussed a new scheme to be unfold for this game and new play books , gotten to know all the no-huddle signals,shifts, plays etc.. and the team was so inspired over what happened in that meeting , and they executed so flawlessly in every facet of the O side in just 6 days … LMAO

for all you guys drinking the koolaid after this pathetic win over a completely demoralized and wounded steeler team, i just want you all to know that we are still a bottom teir team this season.. so, when you guys come back down to earth and realize that, you will all be better off. we won because the steelers underestimated us and were missing very key cogs in their defense.. we beat a team that would have been blown out by the ravens, falcons, texans, patriots, bengals, bears, panthers, and packers.. and we barely, just barely eeked out a win at home against that team..
greg knapp is still our offensive coord..
our defense is still horrible..
dmac had one run worth watching..
our best wideout just got ko’ed..
and we are looking forward to next years draft as an organization..
you guys say what you want, call me a hater, sa im not a fan, whatever i dont care what you all think.. but im looking at facts, and facts say that this team isnt going to the super-bowl, and we need a good draft really soon!!
September 24th, 2012 at 12:41 am
you guys dont let your heads float away before our next loss.. cause when we lose i can already hear the calls for greg knapps head AGAIN.. so crazy how one win can change this (greg knapp is the worst offensive coord in the history of the nfl) to this (we shouldnt throw greg knapp under the bus for two horrible games, look we won this one) you guys can ride the rollercoaster, im not going to.. 4-12 will be the end result, and nothing will change that.. then we trade the #2 pick or this coming draft for 3 #1s and a second rounder much like the redskins did and then we are set for the future..

September 24th, 2012 at 1:31 am
DHB took a lousy hit and the defense didn’t get penalized for it? The Not For Long League really drop the ball on this one every other game!! What the flip did happen? Palmer played against a injury proned Pittsburg defense, he did ok’ed but still has no rhythm for the team. Injuries are taken a toll on all the teams and its juist the third week in. The defense still looks terrible and thumbs up for the offense. Janitor in the closet(Janikowski) still the dude to bring it home! Go Raiders!!!!!!!!!!!

********************
yeah, and this based on exactly zero evidence of any kind. u guys don’t know how the nfl works at all. reggie didn’t call anyone into his office. DA and knapp didn’t go to saunders, palmer, and dmc and ask them anything than they already had. the o-line played better and made a few running lanes and pitt’s defense wasn’t as staunch as miami and sd’s. period. it was a good game but u guys are clueless.
September 24th, 2012 at 1:40 am
unlike so many in this blog, reggie and DA and all the rest are professionals with track records and they had a plan. they wouldn’t panic and abandon their plan after two weeks. that would be idiotic. they know what they have to do and are trying to get there. this game was a good step. hopefully, we can go to denver and get a win. denver can’t run the ball and they will likely use pitt’s gameplan of passing all day. luckily, their defense is not anything special so far. i can imagine a similar game to today’s actually. turnovers could tell the tale.

Raider Nation…good game. We won but my heart has been with DHB since it happened. God bless him and I hope he will be back strong and determined as ever. We shouldnt get too high with this win. It was a good scrappy win but I saw some articles this morning and Knapp and the zone blocking scheme with west coast roll out yada yada yada. Still hasnt proved anything. We ll see if one play saves the season and some of these decisions of coordinators on our team. GO RAIDERS forever

Some say Plunkett called his own plays. If he did it was him and Steve Grogan as the last of the qb’s to do so. Except that a$$hole we now have to face twice a year in denver. But we are going to take care of him next week and won’t have to worry about him anymore.

Here is a clue for some of you-when Palmer calls an audible and goes to a different play,it is still a Knapp play.Believe it or not ,that is why they have game plans.That is why they have meetings.These things are set up in advance-if you see this change the play to that.You do realize this,right?
***********************************
Lefty nailed it.
I am sure it was a plan, IMPLEMENTED BY KNAPP, to have Carson have multiple plays to adjust to on certain calls etc, and Palmer executed KNAPP’S GAMEPLAN flawlessly.
September 24th, 2012 at 5:25 am
And I am also sure, that on a portion of those plays, Palmer was just decoying the defense and didn’t actually switch out of anything.

September 24th, 2012 at 5:31 am
What did I say all week?
“Home dogs cover”, it is a rule in Vegas.
Was worried they might cover the spread but lose by a FG, but they pulled it off.
Offense is completely different with D-Moore in the game, IMO. Even though he had a tough drop early and the slip play, he makes plays and makes the defense honor his skills.
And Streater’s clutch grab, and a beauty of a toss from Carson, was huge.

Knapp is no idiot people, he allowed Palmer to run the no-huddle and make calls at the line, we also seemed to mix it up in the running game and it worked, I give a Knapp a ton of credit for making adjustments and getting out of his comfort zone a little bit, that’s a huge part of coaching too.

Too many darn Steeler fans in the Coliseum yesterday! Too dam many!!!

Could be that he had to establish a “Base” so to speak to work off of for the offense?
You can’t “mix it up”, if you haven’t cracked the eggs yet.
September 24th, 2012 at 6:07 am
Kudos to Pat Lee for making the biggest play of the game too, he was trying to punch the ball out everytime he could and finally got one at the most important time.

Not sure what you mean, I was talking about some of the run plays where we blocked man to man instead of using the ZBS…are we on the same page here?.

Take away mcfaddens big run and we averaged what per carry? 3 yards maybe? The oline is not yet fixed.

Just Fire Baby Says:

My thoughts too. Maybe they wanted Palmer to get a little more experience in the offense before turning him loose to run no-huddle and audible.

DHB.
Get well kid, you are an example for the younger guys!.
September 24th, 2012 at 6:13 am
If Detroit kicks the FG, than the Titans would get a kickoff and if they score they win.
After your team has given up 44 points, I think it is a better chance of scoring from the 8, than thinking you are going to hold the other team AND also drove it down again.

I was thinking more in lines of the team making more of those reads at the LOS stuff.
I am sure Carson could have done it week 1, but not Parsons, Streater, Moore w/o any practice, etc.
The best run of the day, D-Mac’s long run was a “vanilla ZBS play” according to Dan Fouts.
September 24th, 2012 at 6:15 am
Dakota.
True, it wasn’t a perfect game by any means but like someone said on NFLN’s a football life show “confidence is the great equalizer” and we got some from yesterday, now we’re 1 game back in the Division.
September 24th, 2012 at 6:17 am
I saw people during the game praise the “power-blocking” scheme on the draw plays to Darren.
I am pretty sure you CAN NOT run a draw with the ZBS, as you are trying to decieve the defense and get the DE’s up the field thinking it is a pass-play.
September 24th, 2012 at 6:17 am
The lions coach came out and said he just wanted them to try and draw the d offsides…oooooops
September 24th, 2012 at 6:17 am
But how is Detroit losing by 3 in OT? Is it because tenn got a fg so detroit is given one chance to tie or win?
As far as giving up 44, 21 of those were on kick returns and a strip.
September 24th, 2012 at 6:18 am
Not to mention the Titans had already returned a KO and a punt back for a TD, I don’t think the Lions were too interested in kicking the ball back off again.
September 24th, 2012 at 6:19 am
JFB.
Gotcha, and I hope we make it a streak on the 30 points!…
September 24th, 2012 at 6:19 am
But how is Detroit losing by 3 in OT? Is it because tenn got a fg so detroit is given one chance to tie or win?
*******************************
Yes, Tenn kicked a FG, Detroit has a chance to go for the win or if they kick a FG, than it switches to first team to score wins, with Detroit getting the ball.
It was the right play, IMO.
September 24th, 2012 at 6:21 am

Bob,
Confidence is huge. But we have to be more consistent on defense and in the running game if we are going to go for a playoff spot. Next week we have to dominate running the ball and keep manning off the field to win, and then we will be back in the hunt.

Scheme my arsse ….
Players made plays yesterday in the 4th qtr.
When Moore slipped and the ball was picked it didn’t matter what the scheme was.
When Moore dropped a pass from Palmer, the scheme didn’t matter.
I saw Palmer throw to a pass to Reece on 3rd down that was WAY short of the marker, but he made a play and got the first down
Streater caught passes he’d been dropping. Absorbed a hit and didn’t fumble
Palmer spun out of a sack and threw a TD.
I could go on and on citing examples of players simply making plays.
Good TEAM win!!!
September 24th, 2012 at 6:33 am
This article and quotes seem to make it out that it was basically the same scheme and plays we have been running the previous 2 weeks:

The long TD run was a single back set, wasn’t it?

How about the RAIDERS?????
As predicted, the players would step up and play with some pride.
They know they let the NATION down with the past 2 performances.
Good to see RAIDERS making plays.

I never did on the record, but I don’t blame anybody who did. I certainly thought the Steelers would beat the Raiders. First two games the Raiders couldn’t get on track offensively and a lot of their offensive stats were garbage time. Steelers had injury issues of their own, so that was a bit of an equalizer. The 5 point spread seemed fishy to me, like the oddsmakers knew something was up. Still, if not for an inspired effort by the offense, the Steelers would have won going away.

I am not a fan of KNAPP either however, he is the OCO of the RAIDERS, so I have to support him 100.
KNAPP has officially been relieved of play calling duty.
That is the main reson we won this game, and the offense was able to match ben.

I agree…I think the best thing that happened was D Moore getting trippd up and we had to settle for the FG to tie!
I had this feeling that if we did score and went up 35-31, Steelers would have went for it on 4-9 and quite possibly marched down for the go ahead TD making it 38-35!
But…Any Given Sunday!!!
Look at what teh Vikings did!
September 24th, 2012 at 7:26 am
I’m a big fan of the hurry up offense, let CP3 call his own plays and audible out as needed once he scans the defense. At least we won’t be as predictable. We should expand this type of playcalling wherever practical.

Gotta make sure the dumb plays get fixed. That chop block by Smith didn;t get called. It was just a planned play to get Jano to kick on the grass…and Smith commits a HUUUGE penalty (it didn’t get called)that could have cost us the game.
I trust that will get pointed out to him.

September 24th, 2012 at 7:36 am
I am happy.
This was all I asked of this team was to fight.
Wins and losses are determined:
75% Fight
25% Plan
The Raiders fought like hell in the 2nd half.
They fought to do the right things when it counted on 3rd down….the defense fought when it mattered in the 4th QTR…they didn’t let themselves get bogged down with what happened earlier.
Carson played like a guy deserving of a 1st and 2nd round pick…he was straight sick in the 2nd half…I have not seen such precision in the passing game from a Raider QB in a long, long time.
That DMAC run at the goal line where he came up an inch short….was all heart.
The penalty situation was amazing! How many times have we seen plays negated because of a stupid penalty.
Good job…..injuries and depth will always be a challenge….but as long as they frickn fight…I’ll be cool with whatevert the record turns out to be
September 24th, 2012 at 7:37 am
And they rallied and fought for their fallen teammate.
Even Coach was fighting with the fake on-sides…
That’s playing to win..and with no secondary.
Carson and DMAC put team on their back and Defense rallied.
September 24th, 2012 at 7:38 am
Yesterday’s Oline……outstanding…..
Very good win… And a win the Raiders can grown on….
September 24th, 2012 at 7:41 am
Raiders 7-8 on 3rd down in the 2nd half
That’s how you win games
September 24th, 2012 at 7:43 am
Beat the Donkey scum…. Hate that team…
September 24th, 2012 at 7:50 am
We better shape up in the secondary for next week… Hope DHB’s OK after the bye, or we are in big trouble there.
Palmer was ridiculously good in this game.
Knapp did better, but he better remove the sweep play from the offense altogether. Have we gotten a positive gain out of it all year?
I was very happy with our redzone offense though.
I liked the onside kick call… we showed no balls the first couple of weeks.
September 24th, 2012 at 7:58 am
Wow. That’s all I can say about yesterday. I haven’t seen the Oakland Coliseum rocking like that maybe ever. We’ll get to giving out some game balls a little later but a quick question to some of the fans: was that the biggest win this franchise has had (not counting playoffs) in the last 15 or so years or was there a bigger win? Monday night Denver game where Woodson took it to the house and changed the season? My feeling is that was the biggest win this franchise has had in over ten years.

What a great game by the team. No quit in them yesterday, unlike what we saw in Miami. They faught to the very last play. We may not win a bunch of games this year, our secondary is a complete mess, but if we fight every game like that we will make some noise, and especially build a great foundation for next year.
Victory Monday feels damn good.

That was interesting to me too.
The Detriot HC said it was a miscommunication.
If you go for the field goal to extend overtime though, Tennessee gets the ball first and gives them a better percentage chance of winning the game than Detroit. It’s something like a 60-40% better chance for Tennessee.
Detroit trys to draw Tennessee off and ultimately goes for the down but screws up the snap.
That was really annoying since I was betting on Detroit.

September 24th, 2012 at 8:24 am
Where was the resolve to fight to the end in the Miami game? They didn’t seem together as a unit or inspired to compete. And that Miami team was a lesser team than the Steelers. Whether it was the home crowd or DHB’s thumb raised in the air that inspired them, it was nice to see them play liked they cared.
I have a feeling if they let up their intensity, even a little and against weak opponents, they will choke away games this year. They aren’t good enough to stroll through games and halfasz their way through game plans.

You don’t fire an OC after the first game or hand his play calling over to someone else after one game.
Al Saunders has one hell of a Raider-style playbook though.
I’ve always liked Al Sanders and not just because he was born in England although that obviously makes him smart.
Modesty is another trait.
September 24th, 2012 at 8:56 am
As long as knapp brings in CP3, DMAC and Saunders to consult and devise the game plan, and the no huddle and audibles are part of the M.O., then it’s all good. When Palmer takes charge instead of relying on the 34 seconds it takes to get the play to the line, better things happen.

Your looking at your WRs.
They might bring in some guys to workout, but no need to sign anyone.

Moore is a #1, Streater and Hagan are possession type receivers, Criner would fit in DHB’s role the best but he is a rookie.

Reggie, needs to bring in WRs, my guess is he will go the cheap route.

Last year during the first few games DMAC looked as fast and as strong as any RB I have seen. He was amazing running over people with LONG strides.

Plax is out of the league due to non talent issues. Most NFL teams are not in our position of needing WR help, especially in red zone. Plax did catch 8 tds last year. If you support streater then you have to recognize all gms miss something as he was undrafted. I am not saying sign Plax, but bring him in for a workout. he did catch twice as many tds as dhb last year.

Denver running back Willis McGahee was knocked out of Sunday’s game against the Texans with an apparent ribs injury. McGahee suffered the injury early in the second half and was checked by the trainers. He went back in for one more play for no gain before he was sidelined again. He was seen with his helmet off in the sidelines and did not return. McGahee ran for 36 yards on 12 carries with no touchdowns. He was barely involved in the passing game, making one catch for six yards while targeted twice.
September 24th, 2012 at 9:33 am
Not sure if anyone caught this nugget from Palmer in post-game:
“He’s not going to take any credit for anything. That’s just his style. I noticed that Day 1. There is no ego. This is about ‘team’.”
Hmmm, wonder if Palmer has played under anyone known for his “ego”.
September 24th, 2012 at 9:33 am

I’d like to see Criner gete reps too, but sign Gaffney for depth in case someone else gets hurt in game.
If DHB can’t play next week and Moore goes down in game, we are left with Streater, Hagan & Criner.
Crawford is a run stuffing type of DE, not a pass rusher. We desperately need help at DE.

Unless DHB is cleared for next Sunday, we need another wideout, be it Gaffney or Plaxico or whomever.
We could also use a passrusher. Andre Carter being signed by nobody makes me think his workouts did not go well.
Carson seemed operate really well out of the no-huddle. Let’s keep it going.

You arent watching football then bro. The refs HAVE straight stolen games from teams in the last 2 weeks. The titans were given 12 extra yards on a penalty in OT on the game winning FG drive, the 49ers were given TWO challenges even though they had no time outs, there were probably 50 blown PI calls this weekend alone (they either called it when it didnt happen, or didnt call it when it did), not flagging defenders for head shots. These guys are just simply not qualified, and they are playing too big a part in the games.

Andre Carter if he can pass rush …. we need him.
Plaxico … not happening. Criner hasn’t suited up yet, he knows the offense and he will get the chance.
All the Palmer haters can eat it. Whens the last time we a QB drive us down to win with 1:25 on the clock on our own 25 yard line against a steelers D? No huddle.
Palmer was great yesterday.

Our pass D is bad, but to be real …. there is 0 pass rush. We need a pash rush to save our secondary.
September 24th, 2012 at 10:06 am
Think DA deserves alot of credit, your team is 0-2 and playing poorly, your getting out played by Pittsburgh, you have goodsen who wiffed at catching Jano’s onside kick , then 2 raiders cant fall on a fumble in the end zone which results in 7 more points Pitt and your team plays an excellent 4th quarter which temporarily restores hope that the season is not lost. He still has alot to prove as a coach but his move of making them all watch film together was impressive and although its only 3 games , this is the first coach in along time controlling the penalty issues.

September 24th, 2012 at 10:12 am
One of Burris’s specialties in college was rushing the passer. They need to turn him loose more often.

September 24th, 2012 at 10:13 am
4th in the league with 4.7 penalties per game, and 3rd in the league in penalty yardage at 34 yards per game. That is OUTSTANDING
September 24th, 2012 at 10:15 am
The old refs are asking for a ton of money because the mob already pays them a ton… keep up goodell. Cant keep the raiders down without mafia refs..
September 24th, 2012 at 10:15 am
My vote for most nervous moment (outside of the DHB injury) was Pitt. on that 3rd and 9 on Pitt’s last drive.
They had been converting almost everything all day.
I KNEW IF we could hold em there we’d get the ball back and figured at the very least we’d get overtime.
I really felt if Pitt. converted on that play they’d drive the field and milk the clock for a last second Suisham fg to win.
I seriously had to get up and walk away from the screen on that play…and just listened to the call..that’s how dam nervous I was about that play.
When I heard “incomplete” and the crowd yell…well…i don’t know if i was more relieved…or what.

Ha. You won’t believe this. The feed on that virus infested firstrow site was delayed like 2 minutes and a friend of mine texted me saying “Congrats…huge win”..he has NFL Season Ticket and it’s real time, so i knew he made it before they showed in on my firstrow feed.

The Red Zone channel cut away for the last 20 seconds of the game, because of some committment with the league to not pre-empt Sunday Night Football. It was like a Heidi moment all over again. Good thing I had a screen open on my browser and was streaming it. But it was always about 3 seconds slower than Red Zone. I can’t believe the NFL doesn’t give Red Zone subscribers any leeway on finishing out games in progress. Who cares about Sunday Night Football pregame interviews and predictions when there is a live dramatic game waiting to be finished?

@@@@@@@@@
It’s embarassing the way he takes a couple of slow steps just before the ball is snapped and then once it is, he literally jogs into the arms of a lineman. Ben is already surveying the field when Slo is playing pattycake with the lineman. He stood up the RB on 3rd & 1 and then completely missed the gap on the following 4th & 1.
We will draft a MLB next year.

Here’s one for ya, our game was televised locally here in Rochester, so I couldn’t get it on Sunday ticket, and because of the other games going to OT the first play in the game that I got to watch was was 2 seconds left in the first quarter!

In 2007 under Greg Knapp the Raiders had wins in week 3 and 4 (26-24 over the Browns & 35-17 over the Dolphins) after going 0-2 to start the season.
The Raiders finished 4-12
In 2008 under Greg Knapp the Raiders won in week 2 (23-8 over the Chiefs) and a win in week 7 (16-13 over the Jets) before Knapp was relieved of his playcalling duties in a week 9 loss to the Falcons.
Knapp was 6-18 as OC/Playcaller
http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=3699316
…………
A 1 point last second victory doesn’t convince me that Knapp’s offense is great.
I enjoyed the win, as I do every Raiders victory, but I still have my doubts concerning Knapp and the Zone Blocking System.

I didn’t really predicted the Raiders to win but I was expecting them to be better in 3rd game and had that any given Sunday feel with me throughout whole week , I even gave exAmples of teams last year who looked absolutely hot garbage and they managed to turn in a decent season , I gave examples of teams like kc chiefs who were losing by more than 30 points every single game and were barely able to get a TD on board and they turned around their season and almost made it to the playoffs .. So that’s why I don’t overact over games no matter how badly we lost … Or how big we won … Teams still can game plan better next week and just simply place better in all facets of a game and win a game against a team that had not lost in over 2 years … This is why we love sports because anything can happen

September 24th, 2012 at 10:59 am
3 penalites for 35. Can this be the real deal? Or a bi-product of replacement officials? If so, when these real officials return, and the flags start going up again, no doubt they’re out to get us. Which of course leads me to the disgust with these replacement refs, DHB and Myers both takes shots to the head, and are injured today, yet no flags. However, I’m sure both hits will result in fines this week. The NFL MUST do something to get these scrubs of the field, it might truly become a concern for safety. It’s like there is no middle ground, they either call no PI, or mistake PI for illegal contact because they’re not sure. Christ, I’ve never seen so many PI calls as I did in that NE-Baltimore game. Disgusting. Luckily, they blew that call on the illegal chop block on Smith at the end of the game for us, or we may not be so happy today!!

—-Exactly.Screens, still waiting on a solid screen.That swing screen is too easy too see.
Id give knapp a C- for his playcalling in the first 2 games.. probably an A- for yesterday.

KNAPP need to get creative with Myers and Auz. Do some of that 2 TE stuff…
Suprised and Myers Yacability on the 1 play.
Gordon even stepped his game up.
=================================================
Palmer will.

THIS WAS A HUGE WIN! I am trying to think of a bigger win for the franchise in the last 15 years, and the last real big win was the Rod Woodson 98 yard Int return. We were 4-4 at that time and reeled off a bunch of wins on our way to the Super Bowl.
This win came in front of the home fans, which might have even more significance. Big, big win.

Teams are onto the screen play, KNAPP and Palmer need to create something new, as teams are scheming against that play.
What I havent seen that I saw in Presea is DMAC motioning out, and lining up as a WR….

Partially agree, but it’s not as if teams haven’t been running screen plays forever. Hell, if this was the case Norv Turner’s playbook would have shrinked twice the size. The more important thing is for the overall offensive production to keep moving forward in both run game and intermidiate to long range passes. The screen will then continue to work when called at the right time, and or on down/distance. I like it, and hope to continue to see it. Also, The TD pass to Gordon, was a beautiful play call! And a perfect decision by DA.

Peace thec! Keep that Stabler Jersey clean

I was saying that over a month ago. Manning has his accuracy, but he doesn’t have the arm strength we are accustomed to seeing.

Indeed, win over Houston last year was a pretty big win in my opinion, as far as recent history is concerned. That win meant alot too! But this win was awesome, and now can only hope this New Era Raiders team does not perform like teams of recent in following up big wins with mediocre performances!

Didn’t really seam that he was the number 1 option there. Think Palmer was more so playing that safe, and Gordon having a shot but not coming up with it.
