Knapp talks no-huddle, halftime adjustments, ‘coolest cat’ Palmer
By Steve Corkran
Friday, October 26th, 2012 at 1:33 pm in Oakland Raiders.
If some people had their way, the Raiders would be in the no-huddle offense from start to finish every game. If only it were that easy.
Quarterback Carson Palmer and offensive coordinator Greg Knapp say the no-huddle is effective if used properly. Yet, it’s not something that a team can live off all the time.
“If that’s all you’re going to come into the game with you completely limit yourself, from personnel groups, to formations, to protections, red zone, third down, backed up,” Palmer said. “It’s not feasible. It’s a good change-up. It’s a good change of pace thing for us. It gets us out of a rut every once in awhile and it also keeps a defense on their toes and keeps a defense preparing for it. But it’s not something that you can just run all the time.”
Teams oftentimes will use the no-huddle as a means of preventing the defense from making substitutions. The downside is, the offense can’t substitute, either.
If the offense makes substitution(s), the defense is permitted to counter. Therefore, going to the no-huddle makes sense when the Raiders get a defense in a look that favors them based on who they have on the field at the time.
Some people also are delusional thinking that Palmer calls all the plays when he’s in the no-huddle. For the record, there are a series of plays available to Palmer during the no-huddle and Knapp has a hand in most everything that takes place.
Here’s Knapp’s take on the rapport between he and Palmer in terms of the no-huddle.
“There’s a good communication going right now,” Knapp said. “It’s like the third base coach giving the signal, sometimes where he’ll wave me off or something like that, and that’s OK, because he’s running the stuff that we’ve practiced the most and are the most comfortable with.
“But I want to be there to aid him and see some looks, and give him some suggestions because there’s a lot on his plate as it is as a quarterback in the no-huddle. But it’s really worked out well as far as the communication process goes to try and identify maybe from my perspective, OK, here comes the blitz from a certain side or a certain coverage, so this would be the best play to put us in.”
Knapp agrees with Palmer’s assessment about getting too consumed with using the no-huddle.
“It’s good right now because, it’s like any offense, if you do one thing all the time, in this league, the defensive coordinators and the defensive teams will start preparing for it and have specific things that will defeat that,” Knapp said. “But if you have it as a weapon and you can use it at different times of the game, then they’ve got to prepare not only for no-huddle, but the regular part of the offense and so it’s a good change up and it’ll catch a defense by surprise better than if you did it all the time.”
Knapp is able to communicate with Palmer via the sideline-to-helmet radio system until 15 seconds remain on the play clock. Once the play clock reaches 15, Palmer is on his own.
But Palmer is armed with information from Knapp long before the play starts for the times when he lets the play clock wind down past the communication window.
“We make sure we have certain plays in where we don’t go all the way to 5 seconds left,” Knapp said. “So, from an operations standpoint, we’ll have certain plays in where we call, line up and let’s go. And we get it done with 20 seconds left on the clock to keep a defense honest.
“But there’s certain go-to plays in the run game and the pass game that, no matter what the defense presents, we have either the protection that can handle it or the run fits will handle it. So, he’ll know if he’s inside that 15-second zone, I’ve got to call one of those plays that handle any defensive look that they present.”
– Some people are of the belief that coaches can blow up the game plan at halftime and draw up new schemes and plays for the second half.
That’s folly when you consider that halftime last for 12 minutes and about a third of that time is spent walking off the field, back onto the field, taking potty breaks, etc.
In reality, coaches have about 8 minutes to make adjustments. To that end, Knapp said, that process begins before the game and runs into the second quarter so that they can get a jump on making the necessary adjustments.
“We’ll have maybe a second-half list of ideas, that if we don’t use in the first half, we’ll make sure to apply in the beginning of the second half, as long as the defensive scheme hasn’t changed,” Knapp said. “So, it starts before the game starts. We have this list of ideas that we don’t plan to use in the first half but might use in the second half.
“Secondly, at halftime the players come off, use the restroom, get a rinse, get rehydrated and after like about 2 or 3 minutes in, we have the offense broken up, the defense broken up, and we say, ‘Here’s our list of ideas of for runs and passes that we’re going to start with.’ That starts occurring at the end of the second quarter, where John DeFilippo up in the press box is working with one of our assistants, Nick Holtz, with some ideas that I had and what they may see upstairs to create a second-half list. So, a lot of it’s done before we start halftime.”
– Knapp has been around a slew of accomplished quarterbacks. He considers Palmer one of the more poised quarterbacks he has coached during his lengthy career.
“Unbelievable,” Knapp said of Palmer’s ability to handle adversity. “He’s been one of the finest guys I’ve been around. We’ve had three games this year in the fourth quarter where we’ve had to work from behind, and he’s really kept his cool through all this.
“Not only adversity from a score in the game, but he’s had some tough hits that he’s taken, and he bounces up, he doesn’t say a word about what happened, why are we doing this? He just goes, ‘Alright, what was the problem? How do we fix it? OK, let’s move on.’ He’s one of the coolest cats I’ve ever been around on game day handling adverse situations. … It’s a unique quality because it’s hard to find that in a quarterback when a lot of stuff is coming at you.”
– Sebastian Janikowski calls Arrowhead Stadium one of his favorite venues in which to kick. A check of the numbers reveals just why.
Janikowski has converted 28 of 32 field-goal attempts at Arrowhead Stadium, including a stretch in which he made 18 straight from 2003-10.
The streak ended last season when a Janikowski 59-yarder hit the crossbar. No worry, though. Janikowski atoned for that with a game-winning field goal in overtime.
As free safety Michael Huff said, “When he is kicking at Arrowhead, he doesn’t miss.”
– Twenty players appeared on the Raiders injury report today. Backup linebacker Travis Goethel is the latest addition as a result of back spasms he suffered after practice Thursday.
Goethel is one of seven players listed as questionable. Eleven others are probable. Cornerback Shawntae Spencer and right offensive tackle Khalif Barnes are out.
Defensive lineman Desmond Bryant, who missed practice Thursday, is listed as questionable.
– As for linebacker Aaron Curry, Allen said he will decide Saturday whether to activate Curry to the 53-man roster.
Curry is making progress each day, Allen said. He participated in his sixth straight practice today without showing any negative effects from the sore knees that forced him to miss some offseason workouts, all of training camp and the first six games this season.
It’s unlikely that Curry will be activated for Sunday’s game. However, Allen said he anticipates Curry being activated, perhaps in time for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers game Nov. 4, if he isn’t activated for the Chiefs game.
– Palmer took a beating against the Jaguars last Sunday. He got sacked twice, hit six times and hurried on most passing downs.
Allen said afterward that the offensive line needed some work and that it would be a focus in practice this week. As the team prepared to board the buses, Allen said he is impressed by the work of his offensive line in practice all week.
“There was, obviously, a sense of urgency with the offensive line,” Allen said. “They worked hard, as I believe they have all year long. They felt a sense of, ‘Hey, we’re all proud men out here and we all want to do our job and do our job to the best of our ability, and when we don’t play as well as we want to we look forward to the opportunity of getting back out there and proving ourselves again.’ That group as a whole is looking forward to the opportunity to get back out there.”
Right offensive tackle Jared Veldheer said he and his linemates got the message loud and clear after an off game.
“There’s definitely a sense of urgency because we take a great amount of pride in what we do and how we help this team,” Veldheer said. “And when we’re not doing what we’re supposed to do, and I’m not doing what I’m supposed to do, it definitely hurts. We do take it to heart and won’t sit around and accept it. With that attitude, we’ve taken a step this week in saying, that’s not going to be who we are, it’s not our standard, we’re better than this and no more of that.”

who is the next RGIII? well it isnt geno smith, smith is very athletic but he dioes not have the spped of RGIII. where they compare is deadly accuracy operating form the pistol, and being very smart with the football. Smith has 25 td and zero ints and is completing more than 70% of his passes. he is nimble in the pocket but is more of a jc , rich gannon type that can pick up a 3rd and 7, but he wont bust a 50 yard td.
He is the best qb in his class though by far and I would be happy if we were able to get our hands on him if tp 6 is deemed not to be the answer.
Actually the players that i think are most like rgIII would be senior ej manual, and sophmore (my absolute fav) TEDDY BRIDGEWATER louisville.
This kid reminds me very much of rgIII and had he chosen a big florida school you would already know of him.
Same old story though, how did he end up at loiusville? Well Miami fsu and florida recruited him but would not let him compete at the only position he has ever played….QUARTER BACK.
Thank god for charlie strong and loiusville otherwise we would be robbed of watching one of the best qb prospects in college regardless of graduation class.
Find out about him
October 26th, 2012 at 1:38 pm
McFadden..another one.
Supposed to be our Marshall Faulk. When he’s not injured, he’s more like our Tyrone Montgomery. I guarantee you our offense is better if Goodson starts. I’ll take his consistency and blue collar toughness over McFadden’s spotty success, and the fact that Goodson has had as many breakaway plays as McFadden this year.
October 26th, 2012 at 1:40 pm
its funny but when jc was here, i dont remember this much hype from the local media even while he was delivering wins. i cant remember more than maybe 2 small blurbs in the tribune in this blog. correct me if im wrong and i may be seeing as we are so far removed.
cork is clearly a palmer fan and finds any way he can to prop up this fading star. ther have already been 4-5 articles on plamer this year, even in the midst of a 2-4 season, and only 7 tds against 7 turn overs.
media cats are fans too
October 26th, 2012 at 1:40 pm
It’s been a long time since we could credit McFadden for a win. A number one drafted RB with his hype, he should be winning games for us with breakaway plays every third game, at a minimal.

What does any of these excuses have to do with his ability to catch a ball thrown 5 yards in the air?
I swear he has transformed into a RB with below average hands.
——————-
To DMCs credit, he’s also made some quite remarkable catches this year.
Consistent? no. Bad hands, no.
October 26th, 2012 at 1:47 pm
I’d hate to wish an injury on someone, but the only reason Knapp uses McFadden is because he’s a superstar and fans would flip their lid if he didn’t. Goodson is much better for his offense, and we would move the chains consistently with Goodson starting. Only way that would happen is if McFadden goes down again. In the meantime, we’re stuck with McFadden, by mob rule.

guest123,
I remember these same types of conversations 2008 and 2009 about DMC. Then all of a sudden he’s a different player in 2010, 11?
There are several reasons a team struggles to run, most of the blame usually falls on the O Line. But at some point, you have to just realize that we have one of the worst play-callers in the NFL.
==========================================
This may all be true but then why is Mike Goodson averaging over 8 yards a carry and over 15 yards a reception with the same playcaller and offensive line?

You are probably right. Goodson at least needs to get some more carries. I don’t even remember him running the ball at all last week.

amzing how so many so called experts had luck as better prospect than rgIII not only going into the pros but also in college recruiting. RgIII was went to visit stanford but harbaugh wouldnt commit to letting him play qb?!?!/1
i get it because they were also looking at luck, but is ther any doubt who the better player is?
Luck is fantastic, dont get me wrong i would kill to have him instead of palmer, but he isnt on the same planet as rgIII, especially if you have an up to date modern vision of what the qb position is all about and now becoming.

=============================================
I can explain why that is: Campbell had a QB rating over 120 five times: in games where the Raiders RAN for over 200 yards. Other than that his rating was absolutely dismal. If you watched the last two games you saw a QB wearing #3 that put the team on his back and carried it. In the last game of the season last year same thing. The week before that against Detroit was one of the finest exhibition of QB play ever at the Coliseum. Comparing Jason Campbell to Carson Palmer is like comparing Peyton Manning to Brady Quinn.

Geno Smith threw two picks last weekend, or did you type that last weekend?

_____________________
RGIII is a great talent and exciting to watch but better than Luck, that’s a question that won’t be answered for years to come. Luck has the better win, beating GB, showing the clutch gene early

You can’t know who the better QB is yet. Just look at Cam Newton. Last year he was great. Now he sucks. Defenses will catch up to RGIII. It’s going to take a few years to determine who is better.

==========================================
The ZBS can be very successful when coached properly and with a running back who will run it like he’s supposed to. Pollack’s o-line coaching is questionable at best, and DMac’s not running it well. Both of these issues will be resolved in time.

They are both excellent players and have very bright futures here in the league. I think the jury is still out on them at this level, but If you are making the argument that Andrew Luck just is not in the same dimension that RGIII is, you might want to take that back.

Luck will have a longer and more prosperous career than RG3
1. RG3 cannot survive the hits. Nobody in his position can. I said it before the season, and its proving true.
2. RG3 plays for Daniel Snyder, a loser of a owner. Whereas Luck plays for one of the more stable franchises in sports.
This is a no brainer.

you missed my point. Im not comparing the qbs, it could have been your mother playing qb before palmer arrived.
The coverage of the qb since palmer has arrived in oakland has spiked dramatically, and his play has not warranted this.
he his getting hype form the local media since the day he signed but his productuion has not matched up.
Cork write about him having a “career year”, and “validating the trade” but omits the turnover issue all together. The tribune made bold proclamations about instant upgrades and dmac and palmer as a “dynamic duo” but it has not materialized.
i could see if he was having an RGIII type of season but he isnt any where near that.
all sizzle no steak and the local media is selling it as if 7 tds against 7 turnovers is hall of fame material
I am noticing corks fanhood showing

Hey Mistic? How is your boy Cam doing?
He’s doing just like I said he would before the season. The league has figured out their college offense, and he’s going thru the growing pains of learning the offense as more complexities get introduced.
And he is not handling it well. He’s showing major character and maturity flaws. The team chemistry is falling apart, and he’s already selling out his coaches.
Cam is blowing up that franchise at the moment, when instead he’s getting paid to lead it.
Not a good situation.

Since we are back to blaming Knapp or at the very least, pondering our run game woes. Let me once again break it down for you guys as simple as possible…
These are the simple facts that are the REAL reasons our run game isnt working, and they are independent of whatever scheme we are running.
1. Wiz 2.0 should be at LG and not C. He is not having a good year by any stretch.
2. Brisel is routinely getting beat physically
3. Meyers is routinely getting beat physically
4. Veldheer is having a off year
5. Coop is a year too long in the tooth
ZBS relies on scheme to beat the D. PBS relies on shear physicality to beat the D. When you look at the tape, we are getting beat physically 9 times out of 10 so it makes no sense to be calling for a run scheme that relies so heavily on us overpowering the defense. I think the problems may just get worse.

I’d love to see that. And it is what SHOULD happen.
But home underdogs usually make the upset. And we havent exactly been good coming off wins the last 10 years.
The effort/execution against Jax will not work this week.
Win the turnover battle
Win the penalty/big mistake battle
Win the field position battle
It’s really simple. Just 60 minutes of football and you’ll get your score. But we shouldnt be so optomistic of that considering our recent history.
October 26th, 2012 at 2:18 pm
Never listen to Corky and his predictions lol.. he is always off.
Dont care what he says .. yes he is sticking up for KNAPP.. but Palmer was calling his own plays out there despite what you are told about him NAP choosing 4 plays and palmer picks. Palmer knows more about this offense and whats good for the team then NAP.

a bit overstated
cam is in his second year, he has the talent, he must improve just like any second year player.
besides the numbers are not were they were last year but they are not nearly as bad as they are made out to be for a second year pro.
8 tds against 9 turnovers.
very similar to palmer output in that regard. i would take cam over palmer.

if you want to see efficient qb play, take a look at my boy josh freeman. he has become a very good game manager this season. he can make the wow throw, or the athletic scramble, but he is un afraid to check down and let the playmakers do the rest. he destroyed ponder the fraud last night.
Josh freemnan reminds me very much of jc, more animated, and not quite the finisher in the clutch, but he will be a good one for years to come.
a perfect example of a qb that started hot cooled in the following year and has bounced back.

I’m not happy with Knapp, either. But no respectable organization throws out its OC at the behest of a veteran retread QB. Breaks protocol. Bad for morale. Would put the other coaches on edge. New Raiders’ management does not do that.
——————-
øk, lets project 6-10 (wins coming v. KC, Cleveland, San Diego and a upset special against somebody, maybe Arizona gives us the 18th pick overall (1st)
that puts us at pick 8, 9 or 10 in this VERY early projection for 2013
lets project us going on defense (David Amerson, CB, N.Carolina St. or pass rusher Jarvis Jones)
we give up the 2nd to Cincinnati for Palmer
we take E.J. Manuel with the 3rd or again with defense (Michael Mauti, ILB, Penn St)
or S Tony Jefferson, Oklahoma
we give up a conditional mid round pick in the Curry trade (so that means we either have a fifth or a fourth
we’ll need a tackle as Seymour will move on so thats Anthony Rashad-White of Michigan or Cory Grissom in the fifth
i go as far as Braden Hughes of BYU at OG then another DT Montori Hughes with the later picks.
lets throw out DMC – he’s in a contract year , so some team that is “close” will take a flyer on him for a low first – lets say RB Marcus Lattimore.
Our QB is Terrelle Pryor, we take a backup QB off the heap, possibly Shaun Hill or Tavaris Jackson
so thats
1 Jarvis Jones, OLB, Georgia or Dee Millner, CB, Alabama
1 Marcus Lattimore, RB, S.Carolina or Demonte Moore Tex A&M
2 to Cincinnati
3 Michael Mauti, ILB, Penn St. or Chase Thomas, OLB, Stanford
4 to Seattle
5 Anthony Rashad-White, DT, Michigan St.
6 Braden Hughes, OG, BYU
7 Melvin White, CB, Louisiana-Lafayette
FA
CB Sam Shields or Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie
DT Dwan Edwards or Sedrick Ellis
OT Ryan Clady
QB Shaun Hill

Since we are back to blaming Knapp or at the very least, pondering our run game woes. Let me once again break it down for you guys as simple as possible…
These are the simple facts that are the REAL reasons our run game isnt working, and they are independent of whatever scheme we are running.
1. Wiz 2.0 should be at LG and not C. He is not having a good year by any stretch.
2. Brisel is routinely getting beat physically
3. Meyers is routinely getting beat physically
4. Veldheer is having a off year
5. Coop is a year too long in the tooth
ZBS relies on scheme to beat the D. PBS relies on shear physicality to beat the D. When you look at the tape, we are getting beat physically 9 times out of 10 so it makes no sense to be calling for a run scheme that relies so heavily on us overpowering the defense. I think the problems may just get worse.
=—————————————————.
I Know man, By the way, what even happened to Bergstrom? you would think he should get a chance with Wil Smith as our starting RT?
October 26th, 2012 at 2:29 pm

October 26th, 2012 at 2:30 pm
The coverage of the qb since palmer has arrived in oakland has spiked dramatically, and his play has not warranted this.
___________
JC got praised for leading offseason workouts and the offense becoming so tightly knit
cp had an article written about him by cork saying he has validating the trade. that’s going WAY out on the limb but don’t remember many other articles praising CP completely about CP do you?
are you insinuating, and would you admit to it, possible racism with more praise for CP than JC when you believe JC is better based on the w l record?
if jc were better i’d agree it should be considered such.
what about your statement that luck and rgIII aren’t in the same planet? are you sure you’re assessing the difference objectively and not in the way you seem to be insinuating certain journalists praise CP more than they did JC?

Mistic,
Good to see you actually watched Geno Smith play and realized he is closer to Drew Bledsoe than Alex Smith, athletically.
I like him as a prospect, because of his accuracy on intermediate throws in the pocket. Solid NFL skill.
But when he is on the field, he is about the 15th most athletic player on the field, ahead of only the O-lineman and maybe a DT or two.
October 26th, 2012 at 2:33 pm

Hey Mistic? How is your boy Cam doing?
He’s doing just like I said he would before the season. The league has figured out their college offense, and he’s going thru the growing pains of learning the offense as more complexities get introduced.
And he is not handling it well. He’s showing major character and maturity flaws. The team chemistry is falling apart, and he’s already selling out his coaches.
Cam is blowing up that franchise at the moment, when instead he’s getting paid to lead it.
Not a good situation.
=============
a bit overstated
cam is in his second year, he has the talent, he must improve just like any second year player.
besides the numbers are not were they were last year but they are not nearly as bad as they are made out to be for a second year pro.
8 tds against 9 turnovers.
very similar to palmer output in that regard. i would take cam over palmer.
—————————————————–
I agree that Cam is talented, maybe more than Palmer, but man the dude needs to act like a leader. He’s throwing tantrums out there that rival a 6 year old girl.

You were comparing the media coverage. Are you saying that Matt Cain should not get as much coverage in the media as Dan Runzler from a few years before.
=============
im saying that palmer is being hyped by the local media as if he has done something spectacular and he has not. passing yardge, without wins and 7 to 7 turnover to td ratio doesnt warrant this rampant adoration from cork…..unless he is like the rest of us, a fan.
I would not make the point if were 4-2, but at 4-2 the qb was an after thoguht in the local media.

Before Oakland can even think about benching Palmer, there’s two questions that need to be answered: Given his age, is there enough time to bring in the necessary pieces to surround Palmer and challenge for a Superbowl? And more importantly, is Palmer even good enough to lead the Oakland Raiders to a Lombardi Trophy?
============================================
I think the better question is: who do you have to replace Palmer with? If you are saying Terrell Pryor, that is ONE BIG IF…
October 26th, 2012 at 2:36 pm
I hope Carson Russell leads the Faiders to 10 more years of 4-12 seasons . I can then come on this blog and here how great and elite this LOSER IS . You guys have been LOSERS so long you celebrate a LOSER who has GREAT STATS ! FCKN LOSERS !

You told me he COULD run, but he chooses not to.
Good thing he doesn’t chose to, because he can’t.

mistic–besides having the ridiculously stupid name of supavillain, u are the most most transparent, one-note jackazz on the blog this side of sullivan and beechum.
now ur jumping on the josh freeman bandwagon. not surprising. ur constant droning about the “modern qb” is about who exactly? cam and rg3? who else? u have praised campbell, wilson, and freeman. what’s the common denominator there? hmm. i can think of one.
where’s ur praise for tannehill and ponder? aren’t they athletic? tannehill was a very good wr before converting to qb.
there’s a good reason why articles are being written about palmer. as i, and many here, and most nfl experts, see, is that palmer is playing really well, virtually the only raider offensive player to do so, operating with a non-existent running game, and an o-line that allows immediate pressure in the passing game.
campbell, was deliberate, slow to react, and pretty much mediocre in every respect.
u sir, are an idiot.

From the dude who created the QBR at ESPN:
But it tells you more than that. For instance, it tells you:
•Luck runs more successfully than Griffin. He’s had 10 scrambles for first downs. Griffin has had nine.
•Luck is asked to do more than Griffin and is doing it. His average pass completion travels 8.6 yards in the air, highest in the NFL. Griffin’s is 5.8, one of the lowest.
•Luck is more valuable to his team than Griffin. Sixty-nine percent of the Colts’ passing yards are gained while the ball is in the air, the rest after the catch. Only 49 percent of the Skins’ passing yards come through the air. In other words, Griffin still has his training wheels on. Luck has his license.

have you been asleep at the wheel?
you dont have to take my word for it try former nfl coach super bowl wining coach and hall of fame inductee john madden
“If he gets away from you on any type of scramble, he can just outrun anyone that you have on your team, and that is very, very scary,” Madden said. “I think that’s gonna be the pro quarterback style, I really do. If you go back and look at high school football, the way they play, and college football, the way they play, that’s the type of quarterback that we’re developing. And that’s the type of quarterback that’s gonna come into the league, and I think eventually that’s gonna be the pro-type quarterback.”
you may disagree but ill take coaches word, it matches what i see, nothing like this has ever been i this league playing qb. lenny moore was forced to play rb

Special Teams Coordinator;
or
Gregg Knapp
Offensive Coordinator
——————————————————
The drop off in both has been alarming. We used to have a top notch return game under John Schneider, and when he left it all went down the toilet.
Knapp is a known commodity. He failed in Oakland before and I don’t see why he would succeed now. The point is not whether the ZBS can or cannot work, the issue is that he wasn’t able to get the team prepared to play it. We shouldn’t be learning on the fly, that’s what training camp is for!

From the dude who created the QBR at ESPN:
But it tells you more than that. For instance, it tells you:
•Luck runs more successfully than Griffin. He’s had 10 scrambles for first downs. Griffin has had nine.
•Luck is asked to do more than Griffin and is doing it. His average pass completion travels 8.6 yards in the air, highest in the NFL. Griffin’s is 5.8, one of the lowest.
•Luck is more valuable to his team than Griffin. Sixty-nine percent of the Colts’ passing yards are gained while the ball is in the air, the rest after the catch. Only 49 percent of the Skins’ passing yards come through the air. In other words, Griffin still has his training wheels on. Luck has his license.
===========
dont be fooled, watch the games
RGIII primary target garcon has only played one quarter of football this season. Moss, is old and slow and still the best on the team in garcons absence. Morgan and hankerson have not been able to stretch the field consistently, and are mor like 2nd and 3rd options.
Trust me rGIII can do things luck couldnt dream of doing if he was high on pcpc

Why are Republicans trying to keep people from voting?
Fake voter purge letters. Also in Florida, a mass mailing of fake letters questioning voters’ citizenship is being investigated. The letter, written on fake letterhead of a local county’s Supervisor of Elections, tells recipients in 23 counties to fill out a “voter eligibility form” with their Social Security information, Florida drivers licence number, and addresses. The letter claims the recipients must send the form to the Supervisor of Elections within 15 days or be purged from the rolls — mimicking actual purge letters ordered by Florida governor Rick Scott (R) challenging 200 Floridians’ citizenship.

Why are Republicans trying to intimidate people from Voting?
Intimidating billboards. Dozens of billboards warning that voter fraud is a felony popped up suddenly in predominantly African American and Latino neighborhoods of Cleveland, Ohio earlier this month. The message, which includes the prison sentence and fine for voter fraud, is likely targeting former felons who do have the right to vote in Ohio. The company, Clear Channel Outdoor, announced they would take down intimidating voter fraud billboards after the sponsor refused to come forward. The company is also donating 10 billboards declaring, “Voting is a Right. Not a Crime!”

Employer pressure. Several CEOs are pressuring their employees to vote for Romney by suggesting they will be forced to fire workers if 0bama wins the election. While employers used to be banned from directly expressing political opinions to employees, the Supreme Court changed that with its 2010 Citizens United ruling.

Sometimes I really wonder about the US Voter mentality. at the end of 2008, we faced some really drastic issues economically. We’re a whole lot better today than the end of 2008. Yet I hear this constant gripe about spending and how we are in such bad shape. The guy that they want to vote for promised to lower taxes and increase defense spending. We are currently spending 41% of the world’s military budget. I wonder how people make the assumptions that yeah we gonna lower spending and deficit by lowering revenue and increasing our military budget. Uneffinbelievable.

he has some growing up to do for sure, but then again when you are 23 years old and you destroyed the football world for the last 3 years running wiinng at every turn i could see why he is abit spoiled.
he will learn from this, we are not talking about vy or ryan leaf, here
——————————————————-
I hope so man, he’s too much of a talent to let his head get away from him. If he settles in and keeps it low profile for a while, I see him developing into the leader–maybe he just needs to be humbled to reach that point.
I could understand it in a way, everyone telling you your best thing since sliced bread, then you struggle and everyone is asking why for the first time. Probably the first time he’s dealt with the blame, but he has to learn pretty soon.

im out
Plamer will have to carry the load on sunday, the cheifs are a much better run defense than the numbers show, and the defense over all is better than jax, or pitt minus troy and Harrison.
Palmer should try and target routt as he is a penalty machine. im certain the cheifs will rely on a run heavy attack as quinn hasnt found a groove yet. This game will come down to which qb makes the fewest mistakes, i have to give palmer an edge in this case.
The cheifs will key on dmac and palmer will have to beat the cheifs throwing, which most nfl coaches and execs dont think palmer can do consistently any longer. i expect lots of on one on matchups with a deep safety over the top. flowers and routt will either get torched or cause head aches.
No turnovers and we may be able to eek out a win,

Mistic,
Good to see you actually watched Geno Smith play and realized he is closer to Drew Bledsoe than Alex Smith, athletically.
I like him as a prospect, because of his accuracy on intermediate throws in the pocket. Solid NFL skill.
But when he is on the field, he is about the 15th most athletic player on the field, ahead of only the O-lineman and maybe a DT or two.
——————————-
Dont sleep on Tennesse’s Tyler Bray, either.
“possesses a great deal of natural arm talent and possesses even more confidence in his ability to fit the ball between tight windows. In this way, he is reminiscent of former SEC standout Jay Cutler (Vanderbilt). Like Cutler, Bray seems to enjoy the challenge of tougher throws and will often attempt them rather than take safer options.
He’s consistently more accurate when driving the ball rather than touch passes and has become especially lethal due to his timing and accuracy on the slant and post with his big receivers. Furthermore, he might be the best of the top quarterback prospects at delivering a consistently ball on the deep out.”

For the record, there are a series of plays available to Palmer during the no-huddle and Knapp has a hand in most everything that takes place.
Here’s Knapp’s take on the rapport between he and Palmer in terms of the no-huddle.
“There’s a good communication going right now,” Knapp said.

“If that’s all you’re going to come into the game with you completely limit yourself, from personnel groups, to formations, to protections, red zone, third down, backed up,” Palmer said. “It’s not feasible.
***********************************************
Palmer is such a stand up guy. He knows damn well he could design plays for the no huddle, like mannning does. WTF.

By my count there are 2 special teams and 6 offensive coaches. This indicates Knapp has the more complex job and probably does significant managing of the more “hand’s on coaches”.

Some people also are delusional thinking that Palmer calls all the plays when he’s in the no-huddle. For the record, there are a series of plays available to Palmer during the no-huddle and Knapp has a hand in most everything that takes place.

Since we are back to blaming Knapp or at the very least, pondering our run game woes. Let me once again break it down for you guys as simple as possible…
These are the simple facts that are the REAL reasons our run game isnt working, and they are independent of whatever scheme we are running.
1. Wiz 2.0 should be at LG and not C. He is not having a good year by any stretch.
2. Brisel is routinely getting beat physically
3. Meyers is routinely getting beat physically
4. Veldheer is having a off year
5. Coop is a year too long in the tooth
ZBS relies on scheme to beat the D. PBS relies on shear physicality to beat the D. When you look at the tape, we are getting beat physically 9 times out of 10 so it makes no sense to be calling for a run scheme that relies so heavily on us overpowering the defense. I think the problems may just get worse.
=====================
Interesting…those same linemen looked a heckof a lot better last year playing the “other” scheme.

October 26th, 2012 at 6:14 pm
There’s a guy from Murray St. who is currently 3rd string but i’m telling you guys, this kid has it all.
His name is Lardarvious Mohammed. He stretches the field like no other. He has 5.6 speed in the 40 and throws a wobbly long ball. The only reason he hasn’t gotten a shot is because the coaches are basically blind. Sure, Lardarvious threw 6 int’s in the one shot he did get in a game but that’s only because the defense wasn’t ready for a kid like this.
They were so schocked at the talent they were seeing in front of them they were out of position and were’nt playing a normal defense.
This kid makes Palmer look like someone who should be riding the short bus.
You’ll be hearing alot from this kid before it’s all said and done.

They have regressed in pass protection. Veldheer can’t protect Palmer’s blind side this year and that has nothing to do with ZBS. Willie Smith is an unmitigated disaster in both run and pass blocking, and Lil’ Wiz has not adapted to playing center.
October 26th, 2012 at 6:24 pm
Line-wise, I can see three big priorities:
1) Get a better o-line coach: Wylie if we go back to angle-blocking, and Alex Gibbs or even Tom Cable (!) if we remain with ZBS.
2) Move Wiz back to LG.
3) Put Bergs at RG.
4) Find a good C in the draft or FA who specializes in our system.

Can’t even get through reading 3 paragraphs of Krapp’s bullsheet without wanting to tune the clown out.
Imagine what it’s like being coached by this azzcramp.
Worst OC in the NFL.
The results speak for themselves.
A complete and total failure.
From implementing the ZBS, to play calling, to maximizing player production, to utilizing the roster effectively – an absolute and complete FAILURE.
It’s not an accident the Raids can’t run the ball, convert 3rd downs, perform well in the red zone, or put up TD’s.
It’s not ALL Krapp’s fault – but the vast majority of it is.
Can’t believe we’re saddled with this turd.
If the Raids lose to the Chefs on Sunday, you can kiss any 2012 playoff aspirations goodbye.
If the offense continues to be lifeless, stagnant, boring and ineffective – it’s just a matter of time before Krapp (and Tits) lose the locker room.
Krapp’s already lost the fan base and has probably torpedoed the 2012 season.
Can’t wait for Krapp to be fired.

Since we are back to blaming Knapp or at the very least, pondering our run game woes. Let me once again break it down for you guys as simple as possible…
These are the simple facts that are the REAL reasons our run game isnt working, and they are independent of whatever scheme we are running.
1. Wiz 2.0 should be at LG and not C. He is not having a good year by any stretch.
2. Brisel is routinely getting beat physically
3. Meyers is routinely getting beat physically
4. Veldheer is having a off year
5. Coop is a year too long in the tooth
ZBS relies on scheme to beat the D. PBS relies on shear physicality to beat the D. When you look at the tape, we are getting beat physically 9 times out of 10 so it makes no sense to be calling for a run scheme that relies so heavily on us overpowering the defense. I think the problems may just get worse.
=====================
Interesting…those same linemen looked a heckof a lot better last year playing the “other” scheme.
=====================
They have regressed in pass protection. Veldheer can’t protect Palmer’s blind side this year and that has nothing to do with ZBS. Willie Smith is an unmitigated disaster in both run and pass blocking, and Lil’ Wiz has not adapted to playing center.
====================
Everyone looks like a pile o’ crap when they’re not being put into positions to win.
Players can play great in some schemes and crap in others.
Heck Moss had even “lost a step” in Art Shell’s Offense only to show he really didn’t the next year in NE.
October 26th, 2012 at 6:51 pm
turned the game off at 14-0 couldnt watch that lifeless offense anymore
then saw the article about the “validation of the palmer trade” c’mon man beating a sh1tty jags team without thier starting qb and mjd in overtime and given a bone from the refs
really were talking validation that f#cking sad
October 26th, 2012 at 6:53 pm
Wiz played Center just fine last year.
October 26th, 2012 at 6:54 pm
Veldheer played Left Tackle just fine last year.

Would this team have a better record right now if Rodgers or Brady or any of the Manning bro’s at QB?

Duck,
What is up with Bergstom?
Is he having a tough time transitioning to the NFL?
Having a hard time with the ZBS?
I’ve listened to interviews with the guy and he seems to be very intelligent and wants to play ball.
Does he just suck?
================================================
He’s moving from college tackle to professional guard. Not an easy transition.

I’d validate Palmer. The whole offense is implementing schemes which don’t fit their strenths, and he’s the ONLY one that’s really doing somewhat good with “Knapp” implementing his fixed idea of what an offense should be from the 1990’s.
Who else in the entire offense is looking half-way descent.

I think so. Mostly because teams would have to worry more about stopping the passing game. That would open up space for the running game. Those guys wouldn’t have thrown the pick 6 against Atlanta. We would still be no better than a five hundred team, though.
October 26th, 2012 at 7:12 pm
If we can get any kind of a running game going, we’ll be able to take some shots down the field. KC will press our wr’s and leave P.I Routt with some opportunities to pick up some flags down the field.

Manning is not above throwing the occasional pick 6 himself as he did the other night against SD in that awful 1st half, but that’s a fair response.

I think of course we’d have a better record with them – but I dont’ think any of them would look as good with this offensive system as they do in their current ones.
But, maybe if they had a “Manning” or a “Brady” Knapp wouldn’t be so stubbornly, stupidly fixed in his ways and the others would pipe up about what they do well and what they don’t so we wouldn’t be in this stupid situation.

Rodgers has been sacked 26 times, so I believe he might have been good for one more win.
Brady would be good for one more win becaause defenses respect him more, and that would keep them from stacking 8 in the box to stop Dmac.
Peyton would be in a wheelchair behind this o-line.

Knapp talks no-huddle, halftime adjustments, ‘coolest cat’ Palmer
By Steve Corkran
Friday, October 26th, 2012 at 1:33 pm in Oakland Raiders.
If some people had their way, the Raiders would be in the no-huddle offense from start to finish every game. If only it were that easy.
Quarterback Carson Palmer and offensive coordinator Greg Knapp say the no-huddle is effective if used properly. Yet, it’s not something that a team can live off all the time.
“If that’s all you’re going to come into the game with you completely limit yourself, from personnel groups, to formations, to protections, red zone, third down, backed up,” Palmer said. “It’s not feasible. It’s a good change-up. It’s a good change of pace thing for us. It gets us out of a rut every once in awhile and it also keeps a defense on their toes and keeps a defense preparing for it. But it’s not something that you can just run all the time.”
Teams oftentimes will use the no-huddle as a means of preventing the defense from making substitutions. The downside is, the offense can’t substitute, either.
If the offense makes substitution(s), the defense is permitted to counter. Therefore, going to the no-huddle makes sense when the Raiders get a defense in a look that favors them based on who they have on the field at the time.
Some people also are delusional thinking that Palmer calls all the plays when he’s in the no-huddle. For the record, there are a series of plays available to Palmer during the no-huddle and Knapp has a hand in most everything that takes place.
Here’s Knapp’s take on the rapport between he and Palmer in terms of the no-huddle.
“There’s a good communication going right now,” Knapp said. “It’s like the third base coach giving the signal, sometimes where he’ll wave me off or something like that, and that’s OK, because he’s running the stuff that we’ve practiced the most and are the most comfortable with.
“But I want to be there to aid him and see some looks, and give him some suggestions because there’s a lot on his plate as it is as a quarterback in the no-huddle. But it’s really worked out well as far as the communication process goes to try and identify maybe from my perspective, OK, here comes the blitz from a certain side or a certain coverage, so this would be the best play to put us in.”
Knapp agrees with Palmer’s assessment about getting too consumed with using the no-huddle.
“It’s good right now because, it’s like any offense, if you do one thing all the time, in this league, the defensive coordinators and the defensive teams will start preparing for it and have specific things that will defeat that,” Knapp said. “But if you have it as a weapon and you can use it at different times of the game, then they’ve got to prepare not only for no-huddle, but the regular part of the offense and so it’s a good change up and it’ll catch a defense by surprise better than if you did it all the time.”
Knapp is able to communicate with Palmer via the sideline-to-helmet radio system until 15 seconds remain on the play clock. Once the play clock reaches 15, Palmer is on his own.
But Palmer is armed with information from Knapp long before the play starts for the times when he lets the play clock wind down past the communication window.
“We make sure we have certain plays in where we don’t go all the way to 5 seconds left,” Knapp said. “So, from an operations standpoint, we’ll have certain plays in where we call, line up and let’s go. And we get it done with 20 seconds left on the clock to keep a defense honest.
“But there’s certain go-to plays in the run game and the pass game that, no matter what the defense presents, we have either the protection that can handle it or the run fits will handle it. So, he’ll know if he’s inside that 15-second zone, I’ve got to call one of those plays that handle any defensive look that they present.”
– Some people are of the belief that coaches can blow up the game plan at halftime and draw up new schemes and plays for the second half.
That’s folly when you consider that halftime last for 12 minutes and about a third of that time is spent walking off the field, back onto the field, taking potty breaks, etc.
In reality, coaches have about 8 minutes to make adjustments. To that end, Knapp said, that process begins before the game and runs into the second quarter so that they can get a jump on making the necessary adjustments.
“We’ll have maybe a second-half list of ideas, that if we don’t use in the first half, we’ll make sure to apply in the beginning of the second half, as long as the defensive scheme hasn’t changed,” Knapp said. “So, it starts before the game starts. We have this list of ideas that we don’t plan to use in the first half but might use in the second half.
“Secondly, at halftime the players come off, use the restroom, get a rinse, get rehydrated and after like about 2 or 3 minutes in, we have the offense broken up, the defense broken up, and we say, ‘Here’s our list of ideas of for runs and passes that we’re going to start with.’ That starts occurring at the end of the second quarter, where John DeFilippo up in the press box is working with one of our assistants, Nick Holtz, with some ideas that I had and what they may see upstairs to create a second-half list. So, a lot of it’s done before we start halftime.”
– Knapp has been around a slew of accomplished quarterbacks. He considers Palmer one of the more poised quarterbacks he has coached during his lengthy career.
“Unbelievable,” Knapp said of Palmer’s ability to handle adversity. “He’s been one of the finest guys I’ve been around. We’ve had three games this year in the fourth quarter where we’ve had to work from behind, and he’s really kept his cool through all this.
“Not only adversity from a score in the game, but he’s had some tough hits that he’s taken, and he bounces up, he doesn’t say a word about what happened, why are we doing this? He just goes, ‘Alright, what was the problem? How do we fix it? OK, let’s move on.’ He’s one of the coolest cats I’ve ever been around on game day handling adverse situations. … It’s a unique quality because it’s hard to find that in a quarterback when a lot of stuff is coming at you.”
– Sebastian Janikowski calls Arrowhead Stadium one of his favorite venues in which to kick. A check of the numbers reveals just why.
Janikowski has converted 28 of 32 field-goal attempts at Arrowhead Stadium, including a stretch in which he made 18 straight from 2003-10.
The streak ended last season when a Janikowski 59-yarder hit the crossbar. No worry, though. Janikowski atoned for that with a game-winning field goal in overtime.
As free safety Michael Huff said, “When he is kicking at Arrowhead, he doesn’t miss.”
– Twenty players appeared on the Raiders injury report today. Backup linebacker Travis Goethel is the latest addition as a result of back spasms he suffered after practice Thursday.
Goethel is one of seven players listed as questionable. Eleven others are probable. Cornerback Shawntae Spencer and right offensive tackle Khalif Barnes are out.
Defensive lineman Desmond Bryant, who missed practice Thursday, is listed as questionable.
– As for linebacker Aaron Curry, Allen said he will decide Saturday whether to activate Curry to the 53-man roster.
Curry is making progress each day, Allen said. He participated in his sixth straight practice today without showing any negative effects from the sore knees that forced him to miss some offseason workouts, all of training camp and the first six games this season.
It’s unlikely that Curry will be activated for Sunday’s game. However, Allen said he anticipates Curry being activated, perhaps in time for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers game Nov. 4, if he isn’t activated for the Chiefs game.
– Palmer took a beating against the Jaguars last Sunday. He got sacked twice, hit six times and hurried on most passing downs.
Allen said afterward that the offensive line needed some work and that it would be a focus in practice this week. As the team prepared to board the buses, Allen said he is impressed by the work of his offensive line in practice all week.
“There was, obviously, a sense of urgency with the offensive line,” Allen said. “They worked hard, as I believe they have all year long. They felt a sense of, ‘Hey, we’re all proud men out here and we all want to do our job and do our job to the best of our ability, and when we don’t play as well as we want to we look forward to the opportunity of getting back out there and proving ourselves again.’ That group as a whole is looking forward to the opportunity to get back out there.”
Right offensive tackle Jared Veldheer said he and his linemates got the message loud and clear after an off game.
“There’s definitely a sense of urgency because we take a great amount of pride in what we do and how we help this team,” Veldheer said. “And when we’re not doing what we’re supposed to do, and I’m not doing what I’m supposed to do, it definitely hurts. We do take it to heart and won’t sit around and accept it. With that attitude, we’ve taken a step this week in saying, that’s not going to be who we are, it’s not our standard, we’re better than this and no more of that.”

people here act like Wiz didnt play center at all last year, he did and did quite well. The Oline as a whole has just regressed under this crappy system knapptime is running Veldeer was on his way to being a probowler and Wiz was one the best rookies in the game. I think we have been patient enough and now they FINALLY start to ad some power blocking, but the damage has already been done to their confidence and they may not get it back for a few games.

LMFAO at being 2nd best behind Michael Bishop.
The guy who never threw 10 passes in the NFL??
=========
yep bishop is the best qb that ever played at k state, he was unstoppable in college, and i thoguht he was abtter player than mcnabb.
Unfortunately for him he was in the era with outdated thinking, and only viewed as an option qb ( which was false).
he was considered an the dreaded athlete playing qb, because k stats was a running offense. if bishop was in todays era he would be in a spread, and we would be talking about him like any other top prospect, we can thank tim tebow for changing minds and thinking

this is hilarious. tim tebow finally got all the old white men to get excited about athletic qb’s. poor black guys.
mistic thinks the idea of an athletic qb in the nfl is a couple years old. sorry buddy. while it’s true that black guys weren’t given opportunities they deserved for a long time, randall cunningham and warren moon ( and vince evans!) started changing that a while ago. it’s really the spread that has opened eyes over the last decade. don’t think tim tebow. think steve spurrier.
however, there have ALWAYS been schemes that worked in college but not in the pros. the option has always been dominated by black qb’s but speed in college isn’t the same as in the pros. a “fast” qb in college becomes a very catchable guy in the pros, because of all those fast lb’s. the spread is a wide open attack that allows for lots of running lanes for “fast” qb’s but it remains to be seen how the spread really performs over time in the nfl. emptying the backfield and having 5 targets has been around forever. having the qb take off all the time for first downs is questionable b/c of the injury concerns when 6′3″ 250 LB’s that run a 4.6 are smashing you, let alone the 6′5″ 325 DL’s that run 4.8 and the 6′2″ 230 safeties that run 4.4. not only will the lanes close quickly but the hits they take as runners will knock their azzes out. a good scrambler, like steve young, will always cause you fits, but they usually went for 13 yards and headed for the sideline.

From the dude who created the QBR at ESPN:
But it tells you more than that. For instance, it tells you:
•Luck runs more successfully than Griffin. He’s had 10 scrambles for first downs. Griffin has had nine.
•Luck is asked to do more than Griffin and is doing it. His average pass completion travels 8.6 yards in the air, highest in the NFL. Griffin’s is 5.8, one of the lowest.
•Luck is more valuable to his team than Griffin. Sixty-nine percent of the Colts’ passing yards are gained while the ball is in the air, the rest after the catch. Only 49 percent of the Skins’ passing yards come through the air. In other words, Griffin still has his training wheels on. Luck has his license.
===========
dont be fooled, watch the games
RGIII primary target garcon has only played one quarter of football this season. Moss, is old and slow and still the best on the team in garcons absence. Morgan and hankerson have not been able to stretch the field consistently, and are mor like 2nd and 3rd options.
Trust me rGIII can do things luck couldnt dream of doing if he was high on pcpc

as usual, mistic doesn’t need to pay attention to reality, only his own version of “the future”.

I really hope we turn this season around and add some much needed wins. Not sure why everyone is always on Beech’s case, when all everyone does is talk about the same shet over and over and over again.

Let’s not forget about 8 weeks ago, Mistic claimed Scan Newton was a top 5 QB in the NFL, RIGHT NOW.
Not in the future, not potentially, right now Cam is a top 5 QB.
===============
he was in week 1 of the season, he has hit a rough patch

LOL! this is great. he was a top 5 qb in game 1. but now the panthers are considering benching him. he has hit a “rough patch”. indeed.

there is no flip flop, you are simply lying
“ultra athletic” was a term i used to denote a sub group within the wave of the future qb that i mentioned.
what a piece of shid
_______________
yet another insult. wow is this what Beech talks about when he says “blog meltdown”?
wait i forgot some other classic “wave of the future” qb’s
Joe Webb and Troy Smith!
===========
yep they fit the mold athletic guys that can beat you in and out of the pocket
smith= scapegoated by singletary and took the fall, got into league trouble afterward
webb= stuck behind an inferior player in ponder, but pondr is cashing the biggets check so he will have plenty of opportunities to prove that he doesnt belong as a starter in the nfl. ponder may wash out with frazier
*****************
this keeps getting better and better. ponder is now being seen as having a breakout year. everyone in the nfl is saying he could be really good. but mistic thinks webb is better and ponder is on the way out. good stuff.
and just to poiint out the obvious: ponder actually fits the mold of mistic’s “wave of the future”. athletic qb.
October 26th, 2012 at 9:30 pm
ponder has twice the rushing yards as wilson and almost as much newton, but his passing stats are much better. so much for the idea mistic doesn’t see color. haha!

people here act like Wiz didnt play center at all last year, he did and did quite well. The Oline as a whole has just regressed under this crappy system knapptime is running Veldeer was on his way to being a probowler and Wiz was one the best rookies in the game. I think we have been patient enough and now they FINALLY start to ad some power blocking, but the damage has already been done to their confidence and they may not get it back for a few games.

I’m aware he played center last year, and filled in pretty good. But he’s a better Gaurd.

I’ll try to remind myself how “lucky” I am to have Knapp as my teams OC when were down 14-3 in the 3rd quarter and he calls a 3yd. pass to the TE with a linebacker draped all over him on 3rd and 9.
October 26th, 2012 at 9:47 pm
Every quarterback and offense has flourished after the departure of one, Greg Knapp. Funny, his last name is basically what our offense does at times during the games.
October 26th, 2012 at 9:49 pm
If the Raiders can’t convert 3rd downs Sunday, the Chiefs are going to run the ball down our throats.

It is CLEAR that there are posters (plural) who only prefer white QBs or black QBs and vice-versa…..CRYSTAL CLEAR —
You have people “cheering” for QBs to succeed or fail strictly on race….and you all know who you are.
Al Davis was all about winning and not the color of ones skin.
Al was a true pioneer in life…..right up to his passing.
October 26th, 2012 at 9:57 pm
Jason Campbell deserves Raider Nation respect.
Period!
Maybe not the BEST QB in the world….blah, blah, blah.
He provided a stability and leadership the team didn’t have……got this so-called group to start thinking like a team.
He is NOT better than Carson Palmer…but the guy was instrumental in making the Raiders competitive……
JC has all my respect

October 26th, 2012 at 10:03 pm
What all you guys forget is that the coaches have EVERYTHING TO LOSE.
They are going to play the players that they think gives them the best chance to be successfull.
They will look at QBs who can win…not the color of their skin….or whether they can run or not….
Cam Newton and Matt Stafford are going to be good QBs in this league….I don’t care HOW MUCH THEY STRUGGLE this year
If you hate RGIII or Luck then its not based on what they are doing on the field.
Ponder, Freeman, Tannehill are winning games….
Al was all bout just winning.
Hopefully none of you guys are in a position to make hire and fire decisions in your places of employment

Jason Campbell is a serviceable QB. He works hard, a good teammate and can win games on a balanced team.
He could start right now for the Jets, Cardinals, Chiefs.
JC won’t win games by himself….but he was ok.
When he went down last year, the TEAM was doing very well.
I Carson is definitely a step up…that’s clear.

August 1968,
I’m at the first preseason game, against Dallas and their prized rookie, Roger Staubach. The Raiders had drafted Eldridge Dickey in the 1st rd and Kenny Stabler in the 2nd.
That year, The Black Panthers were active, Martin Luther King, Bobby Kennedy had been assassinated, the Haight/Ashbury. I had a huge Afro, I’m 16.
I was pulling for Dickey, the first 1st round black QB in history, he played the first half. Played pretty good. But, that white boy from Alabama came in the 2nd half, threw 3 TD’s………and that was the end of me caring what color a player is.
The End.

With the days getting darker earlier, it looks like I’ll be resorting to posting my comments in here. Hope the S&B can throttle KC, but damn people, ease up on the purse swinging. I really like Steve and Jerry’s posts, but there’s a lot of name calling and even some gayness in here. I think Palmer is a fine QB for this team, but some in here treat him like they got some kind of anal itch. DA will be all right in the long run, but he sure has gotten off on the wrong foot. I mean WTF, have some nuts and deal with the offense. But for all the downgrading we’ve done on D, at least there still playing till the final buzzer. Keeping some of the same players has been a downgrade as well as letting some go. Not resigning Bush was a mistake. And where has Reece been? Is knapp trying to ruin DMAC? Get the runner some help for fcks sake. You’ll be hearin from me after the game. If Oakland can pull out a win, I’ll be heapin glad tidings like mashed potatoes at thanksgiving. But if they lose, it’ll be like a damned toilet that’s been plugged for a week and I ain’t gonna be a happy camper. Ride this thing with who we got and let’s go carve some ass.

October 26th, 2012 at 11:49 pm
KK, don’t really care for politics from you or anybody on a Raider blog, but I usually think your spot on with your Raider chat. I’m of the school that the OC is running this offense right into a ditch. It’s a damn shame. We were not that far from getting to the next level. Now look at the mess we are in. Hard for a HC or a OC can ask Raider fans to be patient. We are a more patient fan base than any, and we care. With Al, that was one thing. With these clowns, we want results now.

CLEAN UP ON AISLE THREE
October 27th, 2012 at 12:05 am
like most fans here, i think the raiders will have a good chance at winning sunday, mainly because the chiefs suck.
but we kinda do too.
nd here’s what i’m worried about: the chiefs can run the ball. very well. granted, the removal for the most part of mcclain and the replacement of him by burris, is a major factor in the team’s dramatic improvement lately, but still, they can run the ball. so that’s one thing.
secondly, everyone thinks quinn sucks. i’m not one of those people. i watched him play every game at notre dame (huge fan), and he was fantastic. i always thought he got a raw deal at cleveland. now maybe, he will follow in the footsteps of rick mirer, ron pawlus, jarious jackson, jimmy claussen (another raw deal getter, if that makes sense) and prove with the chiefs that he is indeed, not a good pro. and maybe because i am a notre dame fan, and in fact a brady quinn fan, it’s my fandom that is hanging on, but i have a feeling he might do alright. he still has all of the attributes that got him drafted in the first round. athletic, good arm, smart, etc. i don’t think he’ll light it up, but i think he might do better than “suck”.
so, i think the chiefs will challenge us a bit on defense.
so, the running game is a key for our offense. that being said, i think our poor line and a “something is wrong” dmc just can’t be counted on at all.
it looks like it will be up to palmer to do the job. and his receivers are really average at best right now. palmer has done an amazing job throwing to a bunch nothing and somehow getting almost 300 yards per game. it’s the red zone where we’re not getting it done. dhb doesn’t really have the hands to go up and get stuff in the end zone. moore is too small. streater and criner would seem to be good there, but as rookies, they haven’t been looked to often, although last game, each was. and myers would seem like a decent target, but he has problems getting open in tight spaces. i would like to see ausberry looked to in the endzone. with his size, athleticism, and hands, he could be a great red zone guy.

We have guys like Rolando McClain, Jared Veldheer, Darren McFadden, DHB and others WHO HAVE never lost in Arrowhead.
Confidence should be extremely high going into this game, and they should play a lot looser than last week.
The team was very, very tense against Jax, I think the pressure of being at home, and needing to be impressive gave them a little paralysis by analysis.

October 27th, 2012 at 8:24 am

In two weeks, we will be 4-4 (just like last year) and averaging about the same points per game as last year through 8 games.
The overreaction in here is beyond words.

I wonder when we play the Bengals, if Hue will be in on a conference call with the local media.
Usually ex-HC’s do, although most ex-coaches aren’t water boys either, so who knows.

For whatever reason this team (my team The RAIDERS) is an abomination. That being said I root for them hard everytime they take the field. Am I tired of losing? HELL YES!

O we can not argue with any of your facts, you are on the mark. I just want to see some consistancy out of the team in all aspects of the game for a change. Baby Steps!! Painful but it is what it is. We still got a shot at the division as sucky as it is and that is at least something to play for and play HARD.
October 27th, 2012 at 9:02 am
I dont understand why some of you are creating so many excuses for the new GM and staff.
Most of you wanted Hue fired after going 1-4 the last 5 games with No DMAC, A retired QB, and the worst DC in the league.
We were 1-4 with this coaching staff with a healthy DMAC and a QB who is in shape and had time to learn the system, and you are OK with it?!?!

IMHO: you don’t rebuild a team that finished 8-8 the last 2 seasons with 2 different coaching staffs. You reload.
October 27th, 2012 at 9:07 am
I am not okay with any of it but the reality is there aint SVHT I can do to change any of it either. I do not think the new GM or the owner have any plans of the Raiders being perennial losers.
Last years team could have easily been 5-11. I would have liked to go to the playoffs but we didn’t. Can’t change the facts. We all want a winner and eventually this team will get back up to respectability.

I agree again Raider O. Seems like a few tweaks on D and we shoulda been ready to roll, but Reg had to dump some money and this is what we are stuck with.
I can.t stand Knapp. Our ST and O-LIne coach are a definite downgrade and I do not like or understand it either. At some point Reg is gonna take the Bull By The Horns, he has to.
October 27th, 2012 at 9:11 am
So I take it than, that you will not be posting on Monday that through 7 games last year we averaged 20.1 PPG and through 7 games this year, we will be at about the same exact number?
Thought so.
October 27th, 2012 at 9:12 am
Facts:
We were 8-8 the last TWO SEASONS!
We were 4-2 last year.
We scored around 5 More points/ game.
We were not the same team after losing our best player and starting QBs.
FACTS!
October 27th, 2012 at 9:13 am
Facts and excuses, eh??
I give no pass to last year’s injury issues, just the same as I don’t for this year not having Jacoby Ford all season, Wiz for the opener, Barnes for about a month now, etc.
It is what it is. PPG is PPG, your record is your record.
I think we will be 4-4 in two weeks, just the same as we were last year.
Weren’t we 2-4 in 2010 as well?
October 27th, 2012 at 9:15 am

Instead, I get rha-rha bullsh!t and this staff’s stubborn determination to continue down the same road.

“Raiders – a gajillion!!, Crappy team – 3″
“It’s gonna happen this week. DMAC is breaking out for 200!! He is due!”
…..
Actual result: Raiders – 20, Crappy team – 17.
Actual result: DMAC – 12 carries. 30 yards.
…..
A week later: “Raiders – 5 million!!!, Crappy team – 0!
“DMAC – 300 HUNDRED YARDS! He’s due now!!
……
Actual result: Raiders – 3, Crappy team – 21
DMAC – 17 carries. 41 yards.

Denver is and ain’t weak. At least the STDs’ are imploding (pathetic team). We’ll see if KC has any balls tomorrrow. Bucs will be the real test. Ravens, Saints, Bengals, Browns, all winnable. If we improve, time to feed Denver a heap on donkey manure. Chiefs, Panthers, STDs’, all winnable. 12-4.

There is no way they come out and play like they did in the first half against the Jaguars?? Right? lol
I expect some more energy and maybe a bad case of diarrhea for Knapp. I doubt he’d be able to call plays from the toilet.
October 27th, 2012 at 10:00 am
I understand being upset over Hue. I am upset that we are not 6-2 and kicking butt however the franchise was turned upside down in a way that has NEVER happened to another NFL club in history. Someone made the decision to take another road.
I understand why many are upset about Knapp. He may turn out to be a terrible hire. But the org. decided to go ZBS and DA wanted Knapp although in all fairness it was late and there were no other choices.
Many of you make sense in presenting your hue/knapp case (many go off the deep end) and you would be right. If Hue was still coach we may very well be a much better team.
But he is gone and not coming back. I guess what I dont understand is what some hope to accomplish by talking about Hue.
I understand all the fire knapp talk however I look at it different. First of all I hope he gets things rolling. I want some stability for the next three years. Its been sadly missing. I refuse to sit here and be angry in my head over something I have no control over.
I like to enjoy each weeks game as I hope to win every game and like that part of it. That makes it fun. I could not watch being pissed off and thinking we will lose,

The Fat Monkey was crazy. Punching an assistant, beating women, getting prostitutes, and losing (17-27). Hue helped the offense score points which helped us get to 8-8 “we are not losers” season in 2010. I’m not saying Hue was a great HC (1-4 when we had to win), but I expected an upgrade. I know for a fact that Knapp is not an upgrade, and I’m not impressed with DA so far. Tarver intrigues me.

96.9 is an Entercom station and 96.7 is Cumulus.
I don’t know what Eagles have to do with Classic Rock…but alot stations use it.
Up in Minnesota there are a few “Bear” stations. As in 95.5 FM “The Bear”.

There’s a weird Tenn Vol and Raider connection. You’ve got the Kiffin connection and of course Reggie and Joey Clinkscales are from UT and now this Gruden talk.
The rumor was/is Dooley has to win today against the “ole ball coach’ or he’s gone.
I don’t believe Gruden can leave MNF midseason…or that he would anyway.
Why would he leave his cushy MNF gig that pays 4.3 mill. a yr. to coach 24/7 at UT?
I don’t buy it.

Danny what did you expect on a Raider blog that is not monitered?
October 27th, 2012 at 12:43 pm
A couple of ex-Raiders made the news:
Running back Michael Bennett’s career turned out to be far less than what was expected after clocking a mind-boggling 4.13 in the 40-yard dash during his 2001 pro day.
Bennett, a first-round selection of the Minnesota Vikings from Wisconsin, put together an impressive sophomore season in 2002 — earning him Pro Bowl honors. It was essentially all downhill from there, however, as his next season was marred by injuries and he was never able to return to form. After being cut by Minnesota in 2005 and bouncing around with four other teams, the former sprinter found himself unemployed in 2010.
Bennett, now 34, has found himself back in the news — and not because of football.
According to TwinCities.com, Bennett has been handed a 15-month federal sentence for his role in a Florida fraud scheme.
Bennett pleaded guilty to wire fraud three months prior to sentencing.
Also involved and awaiting sentencing after pleading guilty to related charges are former Oakland Raiders, New York Giants defensive tackle William Joseph and former Syracuse defensive tackle Louis Gachelin. Per the report, the group allegedly cashed $500,000 in fraudulent tax refund checks.
It’s always frustrating to see highly paid athletes throw great opportunities away. Unfortunately for Bennett, he now becomes nothing more than a cautionary tale to the droves of young players entering the league with high ambitions.

October 27th, 2012 at 12:52 pm
The difference between 2011 and 2012 is coaching and scheming, plain and simple.
Most of the starters return and those who left did it because we didn’t want them, so starting personnel and key players remain basically the same and any changes were made because of our coaching staff and GM decided so.
So, we sit at 2-4 after 6 games when we were 4-2 last year with the following averages:
2011 Offense 25.6 ppg-Defense 25 ppg.
2012 Offense 18.8 ppg. -Defense 28.5 ppg.
That’s a huge downgrade, you can nitpick stats and try and spin it in many ways, but that’s the bottom line, we got worst.
This 2012 team looks in disarray, if Hue was coaching it, everyone would be blaming him for such a bad on-field product, the double standard here is beyond ridiculous.
Failure to execute comes from practice and Coaches run practice, teaching and making your players better is also a huge part of coaching.

Talk about the Oakland – kansas rivalry from PFT
It used to be one of the great rivalries in the NFL. Now? Not.
The problem is that, with both the Raiders and Chiefs mutually mired in years of mediocre-at-best performances, the game hasn’t meant much lately. This year, the stakes entail (as they seem to so often do) escaping the basement in the AFC West.
Indeed, it’s been 21 years since the two teams played a truly big game, with the Chiefs beating the Raiders at Arrowhead in the playoffs. The Chiefs haven’t been doing much beating of the Raiders at Arrowhead lately, with Oakland winning five in a row in the place where once upon a time the Chiefs rarely got beat.
“The rivalry, it’s lost a little bit,” former Chiefs offensive lineman Ed Budde tells Adam Teicher of the Kansas City Star. “Back when we played, those games meant so much, and there was so much bad blood, you thought the rivalry would continue that way forever.”
It feels like forever ago when the Chiefs and Raiders routinely were engaged in heated battles every time they played. Per Teicher, there’s now no buzz associated with the return of the Raiders to Kansas City.
A former Raider turned Chief sees it differently. “Every rivalry in the AFC West is special,” cornerback Stanford Routt tells Teicher. “I’m sure people that play in the NFC North or the AFC South feel their rivalries are special. Anytime there’s two teams in same division, you’re always going to have that, whether it’s Giants-Cowboys, Packers-Vikings, Falcons-Saints, 49ers-Cardinals, whatever.”
“Whatever” is the most common response when it comes to the Raiders and the Chiefs. It’ll change only when one or both of the teams become consistently competitive.
At times, it feels like it’ll continue the way it now is forever.
October 27th, 2012 at 1:23 pm
Gruden? That guy isn’t going to return to coaching anytime soon. And especially not the Raiders. He had a cush job where he barely has to work and gets paid a ton.
The only circumstance I see him returning is when LA lands the Chargers and he takes the job.
DA is the Raiders coach for at least the next three years.

Well, I don’t know about the current fans, but in my mind the Raiders-Chiefs rivalry will always be number one. San Diego I never really think about; back in the day we’d beat them no matter how good they were, and these days you know they’re not going anywhere anyway so, whatever. Denver is up there, mostly because of Horseface, but in my mind it’s the Chiefs, with the Steelers just edging out the Broncos for second place.
I’m an old guy, though
October 27th, 2012 at 1:36 pm

October 27th, 2012 at 1:49 pm
The “Raider Way” was just good football, nothing more, nothing less.
Every good team has their own ways of doing it.
Is running the no-huddle with the QB directing traffic (like Peyton) the “Indy Way”? Having two athletic TE’s like New England the “Patriots Way”?
The Raiders didn’t have the patent on man-to-man defense, hitting the QB or the deep passing game.
It’s all just stupid to me, a bunch of taglines created to get you to buy a T-shirt.

Jones told the Star-Telegram that as the NFL’s only general manager who has 100 percent job security, he can take risks that other general managers would never take.
“That is one of the luxuries of my position as owner as well as the ultimate decision maker, general manager and president – I can do that and take the losses and come back for more,” Jones said.
I have won with that style,” Jones said. “We are not managing a widow-woman’s retirement account here. In other words, to compete, I think we need to be aggressive. You play the game, you manage the game that way. You take some risks. When they don’t pay off, they look bad. That has happened.”

Well i was gonna say that goes to show you why REGGIE got rid of a guy like ROUTT. He is not a true football player. I would also say some of these type guys are still on the team.. but it wont be like that in the future.
Thats why you build a team on DRAFT picks not high price guys or FA’s who are just collecting checks. You build it on young talent.. that have a true love for the game (MILES BURRIS) that have fire /desire. Also you are not paying these guys alot and they are looking to prove themselves.
Reggie is about building a FOOTBALL TEAM.. not just collecting check cashers/ talent
October 27th, 2012 at 1:56 pm
JFB,
I agree with you for the most part, although there are still a few teams out there that hate each others’ guts. Ravens and the Steelers, for example.
But you’re right; we don’t have as many of those from the players’ perspective as we used to.
October 27th, 2012 at 1:56 pm
I can’t believe people used to think, and some still do, Matt Barkeley would either be the first pick or first QB taken.

The “Raider Way” was just good football, nothing more, nothing less.
Every good team has their own ways of doing it.
Is running the no-huddle with the QB directing traffic (like Peyton) the “Indy Way”? Having two athletic TE’s like New England the “Patriots Way”?
The Raiders didn’t have the patent on man-to-man defense, hitting the QB or the deep passing game.
It’s all just stupid to me, a bunch of taglines created to get you to buy a T-shirt.

I can’t believe people used to think, and some still do, Matt Barkeley would either be the first pick or first QB taken.
He is throwing to two top 20 draft picks at WR. Other than that, he is a righ-handed Cade McCown.
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
He’s 30 times better than Aaron Murray! That dude sucks!
October 27th, 2012 at 2:07 pm
There it is, the “I am a bigger fan than you”.
The height of stupidity.
And you of all people.
You think we were really “committed to excellence” while benching Marcus Allen, and undermining head coaches?
Al was committed to Al, and hopefully selling you a T-shirt in the process.
October 27th, 2012 at 2:08 pm
While everyone else is trying to be “Modern” the NYG have taken a tried a true phylosophy and just kicked everyones butt with it. They got a QB who doesn’t have the great stats who knows how to win. Their defense plays single high safety and press man and rush with front4. This is the same system everyone in here said can’t work anymore yet they are doing it and winning SB’s.
Getting so-called ‘modern’ is popular but it doesn’t gaurantee a damn thing. Just that you can say you’re modern……….period
What does ‘MODERN’ mean anyway, does anyone know???
It’s the same crap that’s been around for decades it’s just that the fans who see haven’t.

I agree that this “modernization” is just the same stuff repackaged, but let’s not act like Eli doesn’t have good stats.
He was top 5 in almost all categories last year, and is in the top 3 in most so far this year.
Will retire with every NY Giants passing stat when he leaves.

Two words
Robert Gallery
and several QBs that went to playoffs and SB were beaten like pinatas…they just passed for TDs….Cutler was blasted into in infinity and still went to an NFC championship – they beat Detroit after cutting a first round OT. Rodgers was sacked 8 times up in Seattle…the d-l schemes are simply too fast these days
If Jake Matthews is available , take him
but the impact is needed on defense and in other areas.

August 1968,
I’m at the first preseason game, against Dallas and their prized rookie, Roger Staubach. The Raiders had drafted Eldridge Dickey in the 1st rd and Kenny Stabler in the 2nd.
That year, The Black Panthers were active, Martin Luther King, Bobby Kennedy had been assassinated, the Haight/Ashbury. I had a huge Afro, I’m 16.
I was pulling for Dickey, the first 1st round black QB in history, he played the first half. Played pretty good. But, that white boy from Alabama came in the 2nd half, threw 3 TD’s………and that was the end of me caring what color a player is.
The End.

It all starts up front gotta build from the inside out. if you cant run and stop the run you wont win in the NFL PERIOD. This NFL GM gig is an easy one if you know what the hell your doing. Big uglies win games while QB’s RB’s
WR’S and DB’s get all the fame. but its no coincedence premier LT’s get paid big bucks now. its also no coincidence we havent been any good since we had big LKennedey Mo collins barret robbins etc up front.

And I said he was the best pocket passer in college, not a “great” pocket passer, and that he won’t be “that” good, not “any” good.

The “Raider Way” was just good football, nothing more, nothing less.
Every good team has their own ways of doing it.
Is running the no-huddle with the QB directing traffic (like Peyton) the “Indy Way”? Having two athletic TE’s like New England the “Patriots Way”?
The Raiders didn’t have the patent on man-to-man defense, hitting the QB or the deep passing game.
It’s all just stupid to me, a bunch of taglines created to get you to buy a T-shirt.

Veldheer isn’t regressing Plunk. The difference is in the line itself.
McKenzie made a mistake in not resigning Satelle-not that he’s that good, he’s just average-but the line was working reasonably well with him at center and Veldeer as LT and Wiz at left guard.

That is a ball park that players want to play in.

Giants been coming from behind in playoffs n I think it would be funny if they get a taste of their own medicine and Detroit comes back from 0-2 deficit and wins the WS
October 27th, 2012 at 4:58 pm
We just need to not over think it.
Oline CLEARLY needs help.
Draft Oline with the 1st pick.

We won’t pick in top 10 for sure ..but whatever pick we get we should package it together with other picks and maybe a player or two to secure top 3 pick ..all the kid does is make plays all game long ..best D prospect in a while

What high draft pick have we had that was worth a rats arse recently?(other than DMac)
Or even not so recently.The best two 1st round picks we have had in recent years were Palmer and Seymour(and DMac).

That had to do with the system we put around those players and sum of them were just happy to make money (j Russ) ..I think this team will def put good coaches and system around the draft picks to be successful …but some players you can instantly see and say for sure that player will definitely shine in the NFL

J Jones is a good college player and for the record he wont be better than Von Miller, Mcclain was a beast in college also we see how thats turned out. Jones is a LB you dont take a LB over a sack artist like Clowney unless he’s the next coming of Ray Lewis and its hard to tell that of a LB. Clowney is the closest thing to a sure thing and JPeppers.

Clowney is only a sophmore.
Either way.. not matter what i see reggie trading and getting more picks especially since we dont have a 2nd round pick.
If we make top 10.. i see him getting two more picks.
Either way we gonna need a starting corner too. Someone like Xavier Rhodes. Or Manti Te’o
He is gonna want a Football player first.. not just somoeone super flashy
October 27th, 2012 at 5:24 pm
and I would say you are wrong.
Jarvis jones has everychance to be the player Von miller is.. if not better. He comes from the same mold.
Jarvis Jones/ Von miller/ Aldon smith type. JJ has more of a career then mcclan had in college. Two different posistions.
JJ is a 3-4 OLB.. n Pass rusher on 3rd downs. So much you can do with him
October 27th, 2012 at 5:25 pm
Gotta believe that AL was watching that MNF game when Theisman went down, as I said Jay Schroeder replaced Joe and lit up the NYG. Next thing we shipped off OL Jim lachey who we stole from the chargers, to the skins for Schroeder. One of the most memorable coemebacks by the RAIDERS was on MNF when we were down 24-0 at the half to the broncs in Denver, and we came roaring back led by Schroeder, to win in overtime 27-24, with the winning field goal by Chris Bahr. Who was the RAIDERS coach? None other than Mike Shanahan!

Maybe you haven’t seen J Jones ..both games I have watch the guy had like 7 sacks combined with like 5 FFs and 3 fumble recoveries, a couple of Ints ..made things happen in the clutch ..I don’t understand how is this guy not a cant miss prospect ..R McClain wasn’t that big of a cant miss player ..he was good against the run but didn’t show much rushing the passer
October 27th, 2012 at 5:27 pm
Btw official JJones states today against number 2 Florida.
LB Jarvis Jones: 13 tackles, 5 TFLs, 3 sacks, 2 forced fumbles & 2 fumble recoveries

If he can dominate games and can line up all over the field like JJ Watt of Houston then I’m all for it but I think the nation would be excited to see J Jones in S&B if we ever get a chance to snag him ..

October 27th, 2012 at 5:55 pm
Reggie’s going to go BPA in the first round. Because he’s smart, and because there are enough holes on the roster that he could hardly go wrong by doing that.
Virtually any position on defense, offensive line, whatever. BPA is the way to go, and I’m betting Reggie sees it that way, too.
October 27th, 2012 at 5:55 pm

D seems to be coming around lately but need a pass rusher and Corner for sure ..maybe we can get one or both in FA and then draft BPA after getting 1 OL early
October 27th, 2012 at 6:01 pm
BPA at 20ish will be an OG or C. Maybe a FS.
October 27th, 2012 at 6:03 pm
I remember prior to last years draft Reggie said BPA was the way he was going go.
That’s his style – don’t think he will change it.

Huff is getting better each week at CB.
We haven’t got beaten up by WRs in weeks
Ross, Chekwa, and Adams are the young guys we will develop.
Can’t see us taking a CB early.
October 27th, 2012 at 6:06 pm
D Moore is a legit #1, imo.
Streater making catches like he did at the end of last weeks games is HUGE for our WR depth.
We may actually be set at WR.

Nah he’s not a #1 plus the guy can’t stay healthy ,plus we have DHB who has been knocked out of games twice in last 2 years and got Ford who’s always injured as well? Who do we have behind Criner? He’s also been injured this year.. Streater seems like a player, that got potential to be good down the road but we def need another player at that pos through FA or draft

Aren’t Bartell and Spencer on 1 year contracts? They could take a CB.
October 27th, 2012 at 6:23 pm
Should trade McFadden if he never gets goin in this scheme and we’re going to keep the scheme next year ..either change the scheme to compliment his strengths or just trade him if we’re going to keep same scheme ..we can just plus in a undrafted player at that hole next year

October 27th, 2012 at 6:27 pm
Why is D Moore not a “#1″????
I said prior to last week that I’d be fine with WR kin rd 1.
The Streater started making some ridiculous cathces, lol.
I like that kid AND D Moore.

Assuming we move Wiz back to G, we won’t need one (Wiz and Bergs can fill the guard slots). But we would need a center. FS depends entirely on whether Huff stays at CB or not.

Huff should stay at CB thus making CB not the highest priority, we need a true center RG,RT one will be available in RD1, none of GB’s CB’s are first round picks so I dont see them going that way at all.

From Vic Tafur.=================================Routt has allowed an average of 19.0 yards per catch this year, including at least one reception of 19 or more yards in every game, according to Pro Football Focus. Routt has yielded 361 yards on passes into his coverage on 183 snaps, an average of 1.97 yards per snap. That’s fifth-worst among the 103 cornerbacks playing at least 25 percent of their team’s defensive snaps.
The normally talkative Routt has been almost silent this week, canceling a conference call with Bay Area reporters and staying off Twitter.

As far as trading up into the top 3 to get a guy like Jones, if we aren’t picking in the top 10 ourselves to swap out, we have no chance.
If we are picking 15ht there isn’t a team that would trade down that far, unless they got like 2 or 3 #1’s and a few other 2nd’s.
Look at what the Skins paid to move up 4 or 5 spots. What would one have to give up to move up 10 spots? I don’t even think it is an option.

Curious where Landry Jones will land in the draft.
He seems to have it all, deadly accurate, good enough arm, good size, tons of experience, played against good competition.
But something is just lacking, can’t quite put my finger on it.
Probably a mid 2nd rounder I would think.

The kid is only 20 and is always in the news. I bet that would be wierd. Like i said i thought it was just weed, and he just got arrested for misdemeanor marijuana charge.
anyhow take a look at his mini video . Did alot in 2 years at the SEC high level. Heisman Finalist as a sophmore. Punt Returner that has TD’s. INTS.. FORCED FUMBLES.. Recovered fumbles for TD’s. The kid did it all.

Who said he thinks he is above the law?? he never said that. Tons of guys get popped for weed coming out of college. Even Randy moss admitted to it.
The kid was smoking weed in his apartment and the police responded to a call because his dumb friend ex teamate decides to jump the fence instead of using the front gate. Weed stank coming out. OHNO OO
Janoris Jenkins takend in the 2nd round. Would take him right now too.

October 27th, 2012 at 9:18 pm
I admit.. he is gonna have to crush his NFL interviews like Janoris did.
Teams will take a chance on him. VOntaze Burfict is now starting even though he was never like tyrann.

C’mon man are you that naive thats just what he’s been CAUGHT FOR, you think they would kick a talented kid off the sqaud for just that? and actions speak louder than words and his actions say I’m above the law.

Pretty good article on Mathieu. THe kid is 100 percent football player.. loves football. Plays hard every snap. Has no fear.
But he has a drug problem. its really to bad. I know he will never be on the Raiders. But I bet he gets a shot as an UDFA with a team like the lions or bengals. or jets . maybe even pats
October 27th, 2012 at 9:32 pm
Mathieu doesn’t love football. If he loved football he would still be on LSU. He loves drugs. That’s the thing with addicts like that they can trick others.
October 27th, 2012 at 9:35 pm
Who cares about Mathieu. RRRRAAAAIIIDDDERRRRSSS BABY!! The Raiders will RUN THE TABLE! You heard it here lst!
October 27th, 2012 at 9:36 pm
Nah man.. he loves football but he is a drug addict. Its not easy as to saying stop .. i cant do it. The kid is addicting. Obviously he has already been in rehab.
You dont go from being one of the most undersize players getting no real big offers .. to playing hard ever play ..playing at a top school and becoming a heisman finalist. Its unfornuate but its in his family. I’d link the SI article on u .. but its your typical story of a young man growing up poor in the 9th ward with no real fatherly influences.
The kid visiting his dad in prison at 12 yrs old saying how much he loved him. Its in his family. He loves football and drugs. Its just like many of other people in society (Not just football players/ actors) but drugs take over.

October 27th, 2012 at 10:21 pm
When Campbell was doing well, our o-line gave him plenty of protection. Recall that his parents hold their breath on every play because they know he is a China doll. If he had played in the Jacksonville game. He would still be in the hospital. He would have two fractured clavicle, dislocated shoulder and a torn acl. Palmer is tough, and as pointe out in the attached article he does not cry! What is Jason Campbell doing where he is at right now? That’s right! Because he is a serviceable (with emphasis on serviceable) back-up.
October 27th, 2012 at 10:30 pm
The Raiders moved from #31 to #30, in the latest “power ranking” pole. We passed up Jacksonville b/c we beat them. K.C. is #32. Atlanta is #1. We were one bad pass, (or when bonehead timeout by DA) from beating the #1 ranked team. That just give you perspective on this league. We didn’t “luck out” like we did with Pitts and Jacksonville. We went toe to toe with the #1 power ranked team! So have some faith, if that o-line starts playing together (like a hand in a glove) CP will have time to make throws to receivers that can actually catch! We have to play one game at a time and see what happens. The psychological overlay of this sport is HUGE!!! We beat K.C. and if we can upset (yes, that is right UPSET) TBay, this team will be prove they belong near #1. So STOP hating on your own team!
October 27th, 2012 at 10:32 pm
I will admit this: Willie Smith is the worst player on the field!! That rook sucks!!!
October 27th, 2012 at 10:36 pm
Keys to victory: K.C. is going to be bringing on the blitz. We have to start by setting up screens early to keep them honest. Don’t start off by calling the old “run off right tackle” for a quick 3 and out! That will spell a loss!

the ketchup & mustard always play us tough and they know we’ve OWNED them at Arrowhead in recent years. Quinn is now the starter by choice and not by injury. They are coming off a bye week. Charles & Bowe are good players. So are Hali & Johnson on defense. They hate us and will come out swinging. I predict a defensive game, with both D’s showcasing their skills. We gotta quit the stupid penalties and turnovers – it almost cost us the Jags game last week. If we play like that this week, we will lose. Allen & Knapp should know by now that our O-Line sucks and provide some extra protection on passing downs, especially 3rd

Going back to the Tyrann thing from last night, he DIDN’T really grow up poor, he moved in with his aunt and unce, lived a quiet middle-class life, and went to a private Catholic HS.
There he met a bunch of wannabe rapper guys, and still hasn’t distanced himself from them.
He got kicked off LSU, and IMMEDIATELY started hitting the club scene, making appearances at clubs (for money probably) and using his name in the flyers to promote his little wannabe rapper guys.
One of the flyers was clearly all about taking E and coming to a rave/rap concert.
Dude hasn’t learned his lesson still. Still hanging out in Baton Rogue getting high and in trouble.
Pass
October 28th, 2012 at 6:23 am

October 28th, 2012 at 8:25 am
UDFA or 7th rounder, I am perfectly fine with for the Honey Badger.
No real investment there, and while I don’t think a 5′9, 170 safety (he is not a cover corner, was burned often when he was) has much of a place in the NFL, he can definitely by a top-flight kick returner.
But I am not giving up a 4th round pick, like a Miles Burris, to take a flyer on him or anyone else of his ilk.
October 28th, 2012 at 8:29 am
PFT reporting teams are calling about Deangelo Williams.
I earlier said we would make a run at him in the offseason, and I hope we are one of the teams calling right now. He would be a great backup, and I think his style can work well in the ZBS.

Tyrann Mathieu? Don’t think so. lst off as I have been saying to you guys for years, college football is a completely different game. A guy 5′8″, 165 is going to have a tough time guarding Calvin Johnson who is a legit 6′5″, 240 and probably more athletic. Mathieu might be great in the SEC but at this level sorry. And didn’t I already hear one guy in the SEC say that it is basically the same size and speed? And isn’t the guy who said that ready to hit the waiver wire?
But even if Mathieu had the size to play at this level the guy is a problem. Believe me there is NO COACH at the college level that would kick off his best player unless he had no other choice. There were probably TWENTY incidents with Mathieu that no one other than the team knows about. Shoot, I will bet Mathieu was sitting there taking bong rips as Les Myles was giving the pre game rah rah after he told him not to. Pass.

Hired a HC who was a DC for ONE year.
Him and DA hired a rookie DC, and then hired Knapp as OC.

October 28th, 2012 at 9:17 am
Kinda worried about this game ..KC is struggling and they have not won a game at home yet and just coming off a bye ,they are going to come swinging outta the gate ,hopefully we can match their intensity and btw I have J Charles in my fantasy team ,kinda torn about starting him ,I know starting him would kinda expect our D to suck but I think we will do fine and I have also have D Bowe on same team ,but I benched him because KC QB sucks and started Calvin Johnson who’s playing against a better secondary and pass rush of Seattle Seahawks ,good choice??

Look for Knapp to catch a bad case of diarrhea. The coaches headset doesn’t have the range to get calls in from the toilet. Saunders takes over play calling and the Raiders win!
October 28th, 2012 at 9:32 am
Damn you CBS!!!! showing the damn Cowboys-Giants game over the Raiders!!, The freaking Queefs are considered local….another disappointing Sunday
,
October 28th, 2012 at 9:35 am
CBS wouldn’t show two NFC teams playing each other. I could wrong?
October 28th, 2012 at 9:39 am
Strahan said he talked to Giant players this week and they said RG was unflappable and did not lose his cool but they said
That the Redskin running game was almost impossible to stop
October 28th, 2012 at 9:40 am
Just a question for you guys. Would you rather live on the east coast and watch games at 1,4 and depending on the place of night game at 7 or 10 or live on west coast and watch games from 10,1 and 5
October 28th, 2012 at 9:40 am
Yeah, the Cowboys game is covered by Fox isn’t it?
October 28th, 2012 at 9:41 am
Not many people on the blog I see
October 28th, 2012 at 9:42 am
I like being in the MTZ, games start at 11am and 2pm.
Still early enough so you don’t have to wait, but you get an extra hour before you have to start drinking for the AM games.
My brother lives in MD, and can’t stand that MNF games end around midnight, and our opener didn’t end until about 1:30am.
October 28th, 2012 at 9:43 am
Wow houston fùcked up. All that and a max deal for harden? He’s not even a starter..
October 28th, 2012 at 9:44 am
I know we have played quite a few prime games in recent history but I can’t rem the last prime time game we played on a Sunday or have we ever played Sunday night game? Anybody else rem last Sunday night game we played in?
October 28th, 2012 at 9:45 am
West is the best
October 28th, 2012 at 9:46 am
What time do you guys start throwing back beers, shots and grilling, if the Raiders start at 1pm? I always forget to ask this question!!! lol
October 28th, 2012 at 9:47 am
Off the top of my head, the last one I can remember was at home against the Chiefs, when Moss got called for offensive PI on a TD throw and we lost.
2004 I want to say, maybe 2005.
Can’t remember one since.

Yeah man it must suck for east coast guys to watch a west coast prime time game but they kinda got it better on day games …they can be drunk as f8ck the night before and can still sober up for the first game and can BBQ all damn afternoon for 2 games ..we can only do BBQ for 1 game 1-4

We are 1.5 point underdogs, and that is what they base it off.

The ref in the Dolphin game, pulled his flag out and then proceeded to put it back in on an obvious pass inteference call.
League needs to start to fine these refs for mistakes like that. If you’re going to pull it out, use it.
October 28th, 2012 at 10:30 am

Stop taking advice from Mistic. He knows nothing about football.
October 28th, 2012 at 10:49 am
What’s up Nation. Hope everyone had a good week and is hyped and ready for some Raider football. Can’t wait for gametime. We win today and hopefully we win big. Am I the only one who has noticed this pattern?
Week 1, decent enough performance and we win if not for Condo going out.
Week 2, terrible.
Week 3, great win against the Steelers.
Week 4, pathetic.
Week 6, great performance to almost knock off an undefeated championship contender in their house.
Week 7, ugly, but we get the win.
So…if that pattern continues, we should have a good day and play a very good game against the Chiefs. Come away with the win and the season is still alive. Maybe today the on/off pattern stops and this gsme starts our consistent rise to playoff contention. 27-17 RAIDERS
October 28th, 2012 at 10:50 am
I have ff teams in 1st place and last place.. the last place team has cam and dmac.

October 28th, 2012 at 11:11 am
We could have had Asante Samuel for a 7th round pick. Should we have done it? Could we have afforded it?
Nnamdi just got burned bad. He never should have left here, or rather, never should have been shown the door. Its not working in Philly.

Cam just got his GM fired.
RG3 is getting beat up by the Steelers.
Mistic will jump ship and pick his next black hope the moment his current guy doesnt deliver. When you see Mistic labeling offenses as a “quick strike offense” as if that is a type of offensive scheme, you know that the pile of crap is full of…. crap.
Geno Smith is a college QB. Nothing more, nothing less at this moment. If Mistic thinks he’s the second coming then that should be your first red flag. Mistic’s endorsement is a bad sign.

——–
Fine? I dont think so. We’re 2-4 and QBs have largely done great against us.
That said, I think CB is the least important position on a team. Defense starts up front and the ripple effect goes from there.
Our DT play has been stout.
Our DE play has slightly improved
Our LB play, which was VERY inconsistent early on has improved drastically with the personell changes and the progression of Burris.
Thus, our secondary play has looked better as well. But I think some of that has to do with the growth of Huff as a CB. Which tells me, that having Nnamdi would have been nice despite how little I think of the position.
October 28th, 2012 at 12:10 pm
Almost time
October 28th, 2012 at 12:18 pm
Gotta admit RGIII is pretty good QB, making all kinda throws ,on the run and can even run a route , his receivers have dropped like 8 passes already and his D is not helping him out..see Mistic? It ain’t hard to praise a QB even If the team lost , it’s not always the Qb’s fault , we aren’t just crazy worshippers we know what’s good and what’s bad , we lost games lost year Palmer did pretty good things and we would have made the playoffs if not for our rest of team fukkin up .. See with ur clear eyes and quit hating for once
