Burris supplants McClain in nickel package
By Steve Corkran
Monday, October 15th, 2012 at 1:52 pm in Oakland Raiders.
Raiders coach Dennis Allen talked about making a few “tweaks” during the bye week. One of those changes manifested itself in rookie linebacker Miles Burris supplanting Rolando McClain on certain downs.
In the first four games, Burris was the linebacker coming off the field whenever the Raiders went with an extra defensive back in their so-called nickel package. McClain became that guy Sunday against the Atlanta Falcons.
McClain’s snaps dropped from 73 against the Broncos on Sept. 30 to 17 against the Falcons on Sunday.
By comparison, Burris played 27 of the 77 snaps against the Broncos and all 55 against the Falcons.
Allen said he doesn’t foresee getting away from this alignment, given how well Burris played against the Falcons.
“Every week, we’re going to evaluate and see where we’re at,” Allen said, “but he did enough (Sunday) in the game to earn the right to be back out there again in nickel situations.”
The Raiders selected McClain in the first round of the 2010 NFL draft. He has started 34 of 37 games since he arrived as the projected linchpin for the Raiders defense.
McClain has come under fire from fans for his lack of consistency as an impact player. In Burris, Allen sees a young player who gets better each game.
“He’s not a repeat mistake offender,” Allen said. “He makes the corrections, he understands football and concepts and he’s able to make adjustments and get things corrected. As long as he continues to do that, he’ll continue to improve.”
– The Raiders remain convinced that it’s only a matter of time before running back Darren McFadden breaks out of his season-long slump.
On Sunday, McFadden rushed for 70 yards on 27 carries (2.6-yard average) – he had a 21-yard run negated by a holding penalty. He stands at 271 yards (3.2) through five games.
By comparison, McFadden rushed for 519 yards on 91 carries (5.7) through the first five games last season.
“I was pleased with the way that he ran the ball,” Allen said. “He ran the ball extremely hard. There are still a lot of adjustments that we’ve got to make and some things we have to do because there’s still meat left on the bone there.
– Weak-side linebacker Aaron Curry is slated to practice Wednesday for the first time since he was placed on the physically unable to perform list at the start of training camp with sore knees.
The Raiders have a 21-day window to take a look at Curry and decide how to proceed.
They can activate Curry and place him on their 53-man roster at any point during the three-week window. Once the window closes, Curry has to be activated, waived or placed on season-ending injured reserve.
Allen said Curry’s health isn’t in question so much; it’s more a concern about his being in football shape. Curry hasn’t practiced since June, and he has not played in a game of any kind since last season.
“He’s used this time to kind of prepare for all positions at the linebacker position,” Allen said. “We’ve got a plan in place for him to be able to potentially play in any of those three spots.”
– Recently signed defensive end Andre Carter played mostly right end in his Raiders debut Sunday and participated in 24 of the team’s 55 defensive plays.
Carter assisted on only one tackle in his first game since joining the Raiders on Sept. 26.
“He did some good things but, also, he’s still a little bit rusty,” Allen said. “So, every day that he gets an opportunity to get out there and practice and every game that he gets a chance to get out there, he’ll get better and better. But his presence, his veteran leadership, is good for our team.”
– The Raiders on Sunday looked much like the team that set NFL records for penalties (163) and yards penalized (1,358) when they got flagged 12 times for 110 yards.
They entered the Falcons game as one of the league’s least-penalized teams through four games at 19 for 143. Even with the huge spike Sunday, the Raiders are tied for fifth in fewest penalties (31) and sixth in fewest penalty yards (253).
– Wide receiver Darrius Heyward-Bey made a successful return to the field three weeks after suffering a concussion and neck strain.
Heyward-Bey played the most snaps of Oakland’s five receivers against the Falcons, but he didn’t have any receptions. His contributions were limited to blocking and turning an end around into 20 yards and a first down.
– Right guard Mike Brisiel suffered a concussion against the Falcons, Allen said. Brisiel began the league-mandated testing protocol on Monday.
Allen said the Raiders emerged from the Falcons game without any other significant injuries.

Finally getting some players back…. Can’t wait to see Curry back in action
October 15th, 2012 at 1:55 pm

RoMac should be getting his walking papers soon. What’s his trade value? Corky said a 7th rounder, that’s outrageous, but truthful.
October 15th, 2012 at 1:58 pm
What kind of ’sore’ knees does Curry have? He’s been out for a longggg time.
October 15th, 2012 at 1:59 pm
Shek Quatro!
October 15th, 2012 at 1:59 pm
Well they lost and this kind lost is no better then being waxed. When u lose for 10 str8 years there are no victories.
Raiders can lose next week if they all feel sorry for themselves and realize the season is now over.
Goodson is a better ZBS runner then DMAC. DMAC had a huge whole all he had to do was make one cut back.. but he runs full speed into back of of his Oline guy. Palmer is part of the problem cuz he has to know that the Vanilla offense NAP is running is predictable and that the CORNERS knew what was coming and jumped the route.
Doesnt matter anyhow, not like the Raiders were making the playoffs or superbowl anyway with this ATL win
October 15th, 2012 at 1:59 pm
Total bummer about Ray Lewis, that dude gave sweet pre-game pump up speeches
Once partied with Ray Ray in NYC, he was all hot for one of the Kardashian tramps, I was making out with the bartender
We both ended up face down in a plate of chili cheese fries at Nathan’s, holla
Yo, where’s K-Rat at?
It’s a beautiful day in Switzerland so he’s gotta be logging onto the blog soon
The only excuse is he’s down at the local liquor store buying them out of Malibu Rum
SHIZZ TO THE IZZ TO THE DIZZLE
October 15th, 2012 at 2:01 pm
Yep, Lewis’s a Baller… Blackbirds will miss him….
October 15th, 2012 at 2:01 pm
Raiders need to draft a PREMIRE DT or PASS RUSHER
REGGIES guys have been looking good as late WHEELER, BURRIS, GOODSON, HANSEN anyhow
like i said this game sucks but its not like we were going deep in the playoffs or superbowl bound this year.
Just keep building on the TEAM. Carters presence helped to day forsure.. The DEFENSE of line was a tad bit better.
BTW what the heck is NAP THINKING?? AUSBERRY looks like a MAN out there. Where is REECE?
GET REECE and AUSBERRY THE BALL!!!! Damnnn Nap.. wtf u dork
and by Vanilla offense I meant its predictable.. Redzone still lacks of scoring TD’s. Just dont look at the stats.. watch the games.. To many drives that went nowhere
October 15th, 2012 at 2:02 pm
Burris was making a good impression all year…hopefully Curry coming back will be huge as well!

It’s pretty amazing to me that for 10 years we’ve had huge issues at the QB position. We finally get a legitimate starting QB (probably a top 10-12 QB, depending) and people want to bench him for Pryor. Wow.

I dont want cp3 benched but I do want TP to get in the games at least to get his feet wet a lil bit in a real game all knapp has to do is install a small package for him. the whiners do it dont think thats too much to ask.
______________
I’m okay with a package or two. I’d like him active on game day actually. But there are many fans looking for CP3 to get benched in Pryor’s favor. And I just don’t get it. Yes, we’re 1-4. But I really believe we can be 4-4 after the first half of the season. It’s totally possible; and anything can happen from there. Why would any fan want to give up on that now? I just think there’s bigger problems to address than Pryor.

Who gives a schit when a coach throws a player undr the bus when he deserves it, these guys make millions should be able to take a lil critism in or out house they have no problem when they get the praise so handle the critism .
if Im on a team and my teamate has been fcking up all season and then the coach lets the world know about it thats fine by me maybe it will make him play better, but if the guy starts whining and crying ” aww the coach talked bad about me in front of the media I dont wanna play for him anymore” (dont forget they make millions to play a game) I would want him off my team asap fcking puzzy just play better or get the fck out!!! is what I would tell him.
—————–
when the Pres fcks up the whole world knows about it through the media and they dont cry about it so why should an athlete cry about it and its only a game makes no sense to me.
October 15th, 2012 at 2:04 pm
Each to his own opinion .. But I believe it would be crazy to even think of benching Palmer…

CP3 Definitely not the problem he is playing great getting better in this system too it seems. the only way I want to see TP start is if we tank these next 3 games or were mathematically eliminated from playoff pic.

Yo, the Reggie needs to get Ray Ray for next year’s #1 plus a few conditionals
Even if he only gives the pre-game pump up speech, our d will be so jacked up they’ll intercept 8 balls a game
If Ray Ray pumps up the D before we play the Chargers, Philip Rivers will get hit so many times he’ll start making doo doo out of his pee pee hole
Guess that’s why they call it the blues
October 15th, 2012 at 2:11 pm
False start Barnes!
We need you!
Thought I would never say that.
Time to stick it to your old team.

October 15th, 2012 at 2:11 pm
Would it FLIPPIN KILL us to maybe run some no-huddle or anything to get the offense going after halftime?!?!? Really?!?

I have to admit I too thaought Mcclain would have a probowl year in this new “REAL DEFENSE”.

IMHO, they should take the quick out route and throw it out of the playbook. Never understood that route and the potential of pick 6 involved with it. The ball has to travel a long way for a few yards gained.
——————–
Totally agree, that’s a horrible call, especially under the circumstances.
October 15th, 2012 at 2:17 pm
Can someone fill me in? I didn’t get to watch the game yesterday (work) so I’m not understanding how some ppl in here are still giving Knapp shet and wanting to bench Palmer after our offense nearly eclipsed 500 yds of total offense. What did I miss? I know Knapp is predictable but if that’s the case, then Atlanta’s DC should be fired.
October 15th, 2012 at 2:18 pm
Dam DMAC your right never thought I’d be looking towards barnes coming back. RM whiffed on big willie.

All we gotta do is put him in for McClain and have him leap over the line every play

I was just about to say the same thing! DMC just doesn’t have good vision, that’s why he is not good with the ZBS. He needs to know where the hole is going to be and just hit it hard, but if he has to make decisions on the fly, he screws up and just runs right into a big pile of people. Goodson looked much better than DMC yesterday because of this.
We need to stop trying to force a system that doesnt fit our personnel and do what Denver did for Tebow last year and tailor the offense to fit our strengths, aka, start running more power blocking plays for DMC.

October 15th, 2012 at 2:33 pm
McClain has got to be a 3-4 mlb, he needs that other LB next to him so he doesnt look so bad constantly picking the wrong hole.
Who knows? Maybe we can run more 3-4 when Curry returns. They sure don’t seem to want Gothel in there.
Mr. McClain, this is your wake-up call. Don’t let it go unanswered.
On a side note for all you CP3 haters. He is top 15 in Passing yds., comp pct. and QB rating. Pryor is not going to step ahead of him this season, so deal with it.
October 15th, 2012 at 2:34 pm

Good eye fellas…I saw the same thing and rewinded the DVR to take a look. The play side was completely clogged up and the backside hole was huge, if DMAC cuts backside he is gonna have a big gain. But he sticks his nose into the pile for 2 yds.
DMAC is strictly a north south runner. He is not an LT type or Chirs Johnson. DMAC just needs to hit the hole and run pple over.

The two very obvious issues regarding McClain’s sub-par performance are 1) lack of intelligence; 2) enablers who have propped him up through out his college career, to point that he thought he already had it made in the pros.
The same issues resounded with JRussel.
If you looked at both, studied their eyes, something was lacking. Then again, McClain already made $25M and JRussel made $39M – signing bonuses which were guaranteed.
It’s no wonder the fire died once the impetus to play at a championship level died by making that kind of money.
It’s good, the sooner McClain goes completely away the better. How would you feel if you were a blue collar player, giving your best performance every week and had to witness the lack-luster, non-motivational play of McClain every week??
His absence will lift up the entire defense.

Palmer completed a great pass just like the one on the INT earlier in the game. It was just unfortunate. He showed a lot of moxie driving 80 yards after the INT to tie it up. Palmer is playing better than any QB we have had since Gannon. It’s not even close.

Comparing Palmer to Brady & Brees is kinda crazy.

I hate to say it but a good example of a defense headed in the right direction is Seattle. There DB’s get right in Brady’s face, here’s what Richard Sherman had to say:
“Me and (safety Earl Thomas) walked up to him (Brady) and said, ‘We’re greater than you. We’re better than you. You’re just a man — we’re a team,’” Sherman told the News Tribune. “That’s the Brady Bunch; this is a defense. We’ve got 11 players out there to play great ball, and we’re never going to let one man beat us. It’s not just about one man. If they’ve got 11 players out there on offense, then they’re one hell of a team.”
When was the last time we had a defense that backed up talk with solid defense. Not the Raiders. Too many 2nd rate players that take huge paychecks (Huff I’m talking to you) and give excuses. Earl Thomas was what we thought Michael Huff was going to be.

Troll was fired for being a troll:
Less than a day after Gawker’s Adrian Chen outed Violentacrez, Reddit’s most infamous user and inciter (referred to as a “troll” in internet-speak) has realized his worst fear: getting found out and then fired in real life.
Of Violentacrez, Chen writes:
If you are capable of being offended, Brutsch has almost certainly done something that would offend you, then did his best to rub your face in it. His speciality is distributing images of scantily-clad underage girls, but as Violentacrez he also issued an unending fountain of racism, porn, gore, misogyny, incest, and exotic abominations yet unnamed, all on the sprawling online community Reddit. At the time I called Brutsch, his latest project was moderating a new section of Reddit where users posted covert photos they had taken of women in public, usually close-ups of their asses or breasts, for a voyeuristic sexual thrill. It was called “Creepshots.”
The 49-year old programmer and self-described pervert Michael Brutsch lives in Arlington, Texas with his disabled wife, no insurance and “maybe 3 weeks pay in the bank” after being fired from a publicly-traded financial services company.

Corners get paid to make plays, and sometimes they do.

Actually Samuel got lucky because he jumped the route and Palmer underthrew the ball. If he had thrown it a foot higher it would have been a TD… or a very long throw same as the one Samuel jumped the following drive.

That’s nice, but he had DMC running in top form to help out the whole offense big time.
Palmer has had to deal with an offensive scheme change and change in terminology and that wasn’t beneficial to the whole offense and doesn’t utilize DMC’s strengths.
Palmer has played well this year, despite crappy Knappy and his crap zone running scheme and dink and dunk coming up a yard short of the chains crap.

I doubt a team like the Colts would want McClain unless he signs a restructured contract. Maybe he can only play a 3-4 ILB, but Burris outplayed him and was hitting the RB like a LB should. Aaron Curry is probably being groomed for the MLB position.although his coverage skills are not great either.
October 15th, 2012 at 4:17 pm
2nd or 3rd is out of the question. Look at Curry, 4th pick in the draft, traded for a 7th. McClain might bring a 5th
October 15th, 2012 at 4:20 pm
We need a 2nd round pick next year. We might trade a high # 1 next year for a lower 1st and 2nd. The 2nd rounder the Packers spent on CB Pat Lee doesn’t inspire confidence that McKenzie is a draft master

McClain has come under fire from fans for his lack of consistency as an impact player. In Burris, Allen sees a young player who gets better each game.
“He’s not a repeat mistake offender,” Allen said. “He makes the corrections, he understands football and concepts and he’s able to make adjustments and get things corrected. As long as he continues to do that, he’ll continue to improve.”

hope Curry’s physically ready for comeback. I have always thought he would be best inside at LB. Much better going forward than laterally among the reasons. He can play downhill.
Romac had a few good plays and a real nice run stuff or two vs. Atlanta, but for his salary and draft status…looks like they’re phasing him out.
Burris needs to play, I say Curry to primarily play ILB when healthy, maybe in a 3-4 in future years

2nd or 3rd is out of the question. Look at Curry, 4th pick in the draft, traded for a 7th. McClain might bring a 5th
*******
we gave up a lot more than just a #7 for Curry. We owe Seahawks a conditional pick – I think a #4. May be contingent on Curry making 2012 roster, can’t remember the details.
But I wouldn’t give up more than a #6-7 for Romac at this point, if I were a GM.

Wow. SnB, that’s a heck of a stat.
“Michael Vick has 30 turnovers in 30 games.”
Can you imagine the Eagles’ forums?
————-
Who gives a fk? Does that mean that Palmer has license for 30 turnovers?
=======================
that means, Palmer would be able to comeback and tie the game, as opposed to running and fumbling or getting sacked and fumbling.

@134
That’s interesting but who would we replace McClain with? I’m thinking its going to take Curry a couple of weeks to get in ‘game shape’, plus some acclimation to the new defensive play book. Goethel? Still need another body, I think.
If there’s a decent offer, take it.
Go Raiders!
====================================
I’d love McClain to come good but I feel that his mediocre play as good as it gets as far as playing for the Raiders. Also Curry has health issues so he is the long term answer?
I am hoping Burris turns into another Matt Millen with with better pass coverage skills.
Go Raiders!
