Raiders sniffing first place in AFC West
By Steve Corkran
Sunday, October 28th, 2012 at 5:22 pm in Oakland Raiders.
Ignore the fact, if you will, that two of Oakland’s three victories are against 1-6 teams, but they are a Broncos loss to the Saints away from a first-place tie in the AFC West after their win against the Kansas City Chiefs today.
Sure, it was the Chiefs, just as last week it was the lowly Jaguars without their starting quarterback and starting running back for most of the game, but it’s also the kind of game the Raiders had a penchant for losing in recent seasons.
From that standpoint, give the Raiders credit for taking care of business and buying another week to get more players healthy and find some answers for their offensive inconsistencies.
– Running back Darren McFadden rushed for 114 yards Sunday. Make no mistake, most of that yardage came long after the outcome was sealed and the Chiefs had cashed it in for the day.
Best case, it’s a start. Worst-case, the Raiders still haven’t figured out a way to get McFadden untracked for an entire game.
At one point, he had 17 yards on 12 carries before he bursted for 19 yards. Late in the game, he tacked on a 28-yarder and finished with 73 yards once the Raiders led by 14 or more.
In other words, the run game very much remains a huge concern.
– The Raiders benefitted from four Chiefs turnovers — interceptions by Matt Giordano and Pat Lee, a fumble by quarterback Matt Cassel and a muffed punt by Javier Arenas.
That was more than enough to offset an interception of Carson Palmer on Oakland’s first offensive play.
– Former Raiders cornerback Stanford Routt intercepted Palmer on a pass for Darrius Heyward-Bey to start the game. From there, the Raiders got the better of Routt, by far, the rest of the game.
Heyward-Bey put a move on Routt on a sideline pass that Heyward-Bey turned into a 32-yard touchdown. Routt also was late making the play on a post route by Denarius Moore that went for a touchdown.
Routt said he enjoys getting paid by “half the AFC West.” On Sunday, he helped both teams, so that’s only fitting.
– The Raiders offensive line did a much better job looking after Palmer today, as promised.
Palmer got smacked around pretty good against the Jaguars a week earlier, prompting the offensive linemen to redouble their efforts and make a point of playing better against the Chiefs. It worked.
Palmer wasn’t sacked on 28 dropbacks, and he wasn’t hit much, either. Palmer did have at least three passes tipped at or near the line of scrimmage.
Overall, Palmer finished 14 of 28 for 209 yards. However, he had a handful of passes dropped that were right on the money,
– The Raiders committed only two penalties for 20 yards today, which represents a huge improvement over the past couple of games.
The Chiefs, by comparsion, got called for five penalties for 40 yards.
– Philip Wheeler led the Raiders with 11 tackles and recorded one of his team’s three sacks. Rookie Miles Burris added sevent tackles.
Rolando McClain rounded out the solid game for the linebacking corps with a sack of Brady Quinn and a few other key plays.
– Coach Allen opted against activating linebacker Aaron Curry to the 53-man roster. He has another week-plus to decide whether to activate Curry, waive him or place him on injured-reserve.
Allen said he anticipates Curry being activated before the 21-day window expires, perhaps in time for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers game next Sunday.

Huff a much better cornerback than a free safety.
At cb he’s earning his contract, the dollars make much more sense now.
Lee & Hanson have vastly improved; ball hawks.
When Spencer and Bartell return, they will have to earn their first team positions.
Raiders will be deep at cb.

I love Huffy at CB. It better be a permanent move.

Streater or Criner will be that “possession” WR we need.
——————————————————
Maybe in their next reincarnation.
Criner has a Jamarcus type work ethic (still has not learned the playbook; tried to hold-out as a low round draft pick; and often injured)
Streater has potential, but how many true NFL level possession WRs fumbled and dropped so many passes their first year?

Does the name Jerry Rice ring a bell?

I rarely say this, but Kelly and Seymour were whipping the sh:t out of their guys all game long. Someone might have slipped them some trucker speed.
October 28th, 2012 at 5:27 pm

Just shut up. The Knapp argument has been put to bed a long time ago. Until our WR’s stop dropping passes, all the Knapp haters need to STFU and go find another agenda.

DA is surely finding his way as an HC.
Wheeler, Burris and Streeter all look like staples in the line up,got to give Reggie credit, it’s getting better every week.
Now let’s get ready to BEAT the Bucs.

I was talking about us defending them better but you brought up a good point, we got some speed we can use for those bubble screens on offense as well, what i also like us to do more is that TE screen we used a few times after Myers stayed in for a block and just popped out for a nice screen ….

October 28th, 2012 at 5:34 pm
Great win but we still look like SHVT trying to run the ball. We need to use Reese and Goodsn more too. Our recievers need to get bette. I like # 80 Streaters attitude takes it like a man when he F’s up and acts like hes been there when he does make a play.
October 28th, 2012 at 5:34 pm
Still have huge concerns with Dmac. He basically didn’t get going until late 3rd quarter. Winning teams can’t have that.
The more I see Goodson, the more I think he needs more touches.
October 28th, 2012 at 5:34 pm
Go Saints!
October 28th, 2012 at 5:35 pm
I agree Morilla. Reese needs more action too!

You know, the one that says WR’s cant keep dropping balls and the OLine has to block and DMC is missing obvious holes in the defense.
Goodson is averaging 8.5 ypc. At some point, the OLine is going to stop taking the heat and we’re going to start pointing the finger at DMC’s lack of patience and field vision.
Only a moron would ignore all the mistakes we make and try to still blame Knapp. Kinda like all the idiots that still are clinging to their hatred for our Pro Bowl all world QB Carson Palmer.

Exactly, he’s the perfect candidate for screen plays. Poor Reece didn’t see any action until the fourth I think. at least that’s where I first saw him. Really would like to see more TE and Reece getting some meals.

To a degree some of the plays have started to work now , he still leave’s a lot to be desired but as you can see , we have some players who just aren’t executing on the plays and dropping passes as well and to an extent Mcfadden just does not look the same anymore … last years mcfadden broke tackles when he got in the open field , this Mcfadden gets tackle by shoe string.. so can’t fault Knapp all that much .. hopefully this game is step in the right direction for our run and our whole team

Hey, it’s road win AND a division win.
Good stuff.
October 28th, 2012 at 5:39 pm

Hard to argue with your points. I have seen Mac get up field 5 yds and run right into the back of an o-lineman. We have a lot of work to do on our run game. Reese and Goodsen some reverses screens etc… What we waitin for is beyond me.

I usually only post on gameday, but I read just about all of the posts. There are some who complain that I believe are genuine Raider fans who are probably just complainers in general. But the majority are just trolls and/or haters, some have an agenda, some are just pure wastes of space. The sad thing is if we had lost, or if we had won ugly, this place would be jumping right now.
October 28th, 2012 at 5:41 pm
35 now that you mention the stress thing it made me realize the same thing. LMAO!!!
October 28th, 2012 at 5:41 pm
Dakota, weren’t you the one arguing for us to tank the season a few weeks back? I just don’t see how true fans can plead for their team to tank a season, regardless of what kind of pick you may pull. Have you not learned by now that the draft is generally a huge crapshoot? Why on earth would you blow a season just for a “chance” you might get a franchise player?
I’d much rather win.

We’re playing better as a team due to our improved D play. Our offense has the same issues its had since the preseason.

Yup, it’s odd. Dmac just does not look like his old self. I mean c’mon, if I can see huge a$$ lanes and open areas that could not be missed if you were on the field there is a problem. Goodson has that lightning fast cut a good vision. The next couple of weeks could be interesting as in amount of snaps for Goodson. Because Corky hit on a good point, a lot of Dmacs yardage came in garbage time. You can’t be successful when your running game gets going in the fourth quarter. But that’s beyond obvious.

Early in the year, it was 100% the OLine
DMC has no rythmn and he’s trying to hard, thus the lack of patience. Now the OLine is playing marginally better and when the holes are there, he’s just missing them, so with that said, its about 50/50 right now on the blame game.
October 28th, 2012 at 5:47 pm
I know we are not that great of a team yet, but maybe we deserve a little more respect than being ranked 30th in the NFL.

Exactly, some fans just want to see if a play was a success or not and they blame the coaches for every fail but players are the one who are playing and they all have to be on the same page to make plays , which is what we did for the most part , on another note .. Mcfadden just isn’t same anymore …can’t find holes and goes down on first contact
October 28th, 2012 at 5:48 pm
Raider Riff,

I understand what you’re saying, but here’s another way to look at it. Defense played intense and nasty football, made big hits, hurried the qb, held J Charles to 10 total yards, and forced turnovers. ST had some good returns, and forced a TO. Offense scored 26 pts, DMac rushed for 100 yds, DHB and Moore with TD receptions. Palmer looked great. The O-line looked slightly improved. The Raiders defeated their division rival in their house and stayed very much in the playoff hunt, especially if the Donks lose tonight. It was a good day in Raider Nation.

No he doesnt notice any of that. Because he has an agenda and it blinds him to the blatantly obvious.

Trade deadline is on Tuesday. Since all of u fans think McFadden is holding knapp’s offense back maybe u should petition Reggie to trade him.
I for one would love to see McFadden play on an NFL team.

These idiots who cry CP3 is horrible must have just started watching this team. I’ve watched the Tuiasisopo (sp?) years. The Aaron Brooks years. The Jake “tears of” McCown years. The Jamarcus Russel years. The Dante Culpepper years.
How ON EARTH, after watching that, if you’re a true fan, can you not be absolutely crazy about Palmer?

Handed the ball multiple times in the other teams half of the field and we score 26 points against a bad team and that somehow proves knapp is the man?
Lmfao…lemmings to the cliff.

Yeah he’s not always calling the right plays , but you gotta see the players are not just not executing some plays .. Mcfadden got bad vision and even when he gets in the open field he gets tackled on the first contact, i was thinking he’s the same player it must be the ZBS but i was wrong , 33% of the blame should be on him and 33% on the Oline and 33% on Play calling on some of the runs

Raider Riff,
Agreed. Just hate to see better o-line play going to waste. Especially when he has SO much potential to break for a TD if he just gets in the opening. Frustrating, to say the least.
——–
That is why DMC was in during the garbage time. Theyre trying to get him confident in his instincts again.
Fans are well aware that QBs need rythmn, well so do running backs.
If the garbage time didnt help, then you can damn well bet Goodson is going to start seeing more touches. The coaching staff has to be seeing what we are seeing.
October 28th, 2012 at 5:53 pm
Yep, just let Goodson play and it will all be fixed.
Lmao u people are fktards.
October 28th, 2012 at 5:54 pm
A win is a win is a win! Against who, by how much, and whether it was pretty or not means absolutely nothing if the Raiders lose to Tampa Bay at home next week.

Trade deadline is on Tuesday. Since all of u fans think McFadden is holding knapp’s offense back maybe u should petition Reggie to trade him.
I for one would love to see McFadden play on an NFL team.
———-
Think? We dont “think” anything.
DMC = 3 ypc
Goodson = 8.5 ypc
That isnt opinion. That isnt something you can argue against. Its just the raw facts.
I got no patience for this kind of stupidity right now. Especially when we are a 1/2 game out of first place.

DMac not a zbs RB, it’s that simple.
Reggie just might need to trade him at the trade deadline to a team that uses a power scheme and needs/wants McFadden.
Better to get a 2nd rounder than lose him to FA and get nothing more than a third or fourth round compensatory pick.

October 28th, 2012 at 6:12 pm
I’m very interested in seeing how this defense plays against the Bucs. Should be a nice measuring stick to where they really are. The nice performance against the Falcons makes me optimistic, as much as the two victories.
The secondary against our old buddy Vincent Jackson, Mike Williams, et al will be the one to watch. Not to mention, getting to the QB on that OL (which is really darn good).
Love our two OLB’s. If we can’t get a stud in the draft, and can’t restructure with Rolando (if he isn’t behind bars), it might not be bad having a steady eddie in there at MLB til we can draft our stud. I like having Burris and Wheeler on the field for the nickel package, so the MLB doesn’t have to be elite (which of course it would be nice if they were).
Offensively, we have to get better on third down. I think 83, 20, and 45 all have to be a huge part of this. Didn’t see Reece all day today.
Good win, keep ‘em coming. Much more positive outlook than coming off that Broncos game.
October 28th, 2012 at 6:12 pm

This is a bad team that only managed to make fewer mistakes than the last two opponents & received some absolute gifts from those teams as well. Once we play a team that isn’t part of the worst 5 teams like we are we will be exposed.

What on earth are you talking about Riff? It’s all just pure coincidence man. Honestly. Just listen to the man himself. He’s just going off of their accuracy (which is often questionable), their speed, their mobility…. blah blah blah.
No way Mistic is a racist piece of trash. No way.

There is no “agenda”. I’m happy that we won. But I also realize that KC & Jaguars have won 2 games total. I realize the Queefs gave us so many opportunities today. It doesn’t take an Einstein to realize Knapp has ALWAYS sucked, and that if you put Saunders with Allen/Tarver, we have something potentially wicked.

Riff,
I know I know, Knapp is suddenly a good coordinator because some WRs dropped some balls.
Just like Cable was a good coach because he had to deal with Russell.
And Fargas was great.
And McClain is great.
And Ronald Curry was great.
And so on and so forth.
Some on this blog like to take inevitable instances of the team winning once in a while and use that to justify nonsense.
I guarantee you we will not win a playoff game with Greg Knapp as our OC. That doesn’t mean I am rooting against the Raiders, it just means I am being realistic and am not getting crazy after a win like this.
Greg Knapp is still a POS OC. He will not be with this team very much longer. Get over it.

It’s obvious you’re not a fan. No fan would come on here after a win and talk like you do.
Go to your own teams blog and talk about obscure QB’s and rip on the Raiders QB there.
Why’d you choose THIS blog to spout all your bizarre QB analysis?

Yes, you do have an agenda.
If you ignore all the dropped passes, especially the vast number we’ve had in the redzone/endzone then you are ignoring evidence that would support Knapp. = agenda.
If you ignore the fumbles, stupid penalties, and poor execution/physical offensive line play, you are also guilty of having an agenda.
A power run scheme or Al Saunders isnt going to fix our problems on O. You cant see that though, for whatever reason, because you have an agenda.

Meyers… dropped TD passes this year
Moore… dropped a TD pass today
DHB… dropped TD passes this year
Streater… fumbled in the redzone, and dropped a TD pass this year
DMC…. dropped a TD pass this year
“Some” WRs? Get a clue you fvckup. Everyone has dropped not just passes, but scoring opportunities this year.
Yet keep blaming Knapp and tell us how he wont be here next year. Hardly. Reggie and DA watch the film. They know who is to blame.
October 28th, 2012 at 6:32 pm
The defense has improved but how much? Hard tO tell against our last 2 opponents, they couldn’t score in a brothel with a wheel barrow full of good nuggets.

October 28th, 2012 at 6:33 pm
I’m really starting to think McFadden is just trying to make it a full 16 games this season, and he is playing a little less aggressive to do it. When DMAC is going full steam, his combination of power and speed is only matched by a couple guys in the league. But, with his body type, he would likely never make it through a full season playing this way.
In my opinion, if he remains healthy for the next few games, I think we begin to see the real McFadden towards the end of the season. It just seems like his main goal this year is to just stay healthy, not necessarily tear up the league like the last couple years.

Of course you do. Youre as stubborn as they come.
But you’ll have to admit your faults the minute Knapp survives the season. You said he’d get fired, you’ll have to admit you were wrong.
October 28th, 2012 at 6:36 pm
This is what gets me folks…
Justin Fargas — who had Greg Knapp as his O-coordinator the zone blocking scheme too — puts up a 1,000-yard season and flourishes.
His crash-test-dummy style of running had no little to no patience in it. He just ran towards the hole with reckless abandon.
And here, we have a running back Darren McFadden, who many can agree is exponentially more talented than Fargas with the same O-coordinator and blocking scheme and he’s floundering.
What gives?
October 28th, 2012 at 6:37 pm
Lol I love the raiders but I have seen enough football to know this team isn’t very good. Admitting that does t make you less of a fan.
I was not imptessed with this win, other than to say the raiders did what I thought they would do. They beat the lowly cheifs. I think the next 4 games will mean a lot more & present a far better sesnse of what this team is or isn’t.

That’s one of the most hilarious things I read on this blog. Some people actually wanting Carson Palmer to be benched for Pryor, a guy who was such a poor QB prospect a lot of people thought he should convert to another position!
Man, I am glad fans don’t call the shots.
October 28th, 2012 at 6:45 pm
Really looking at the schedule I see 1-2 more winnable games maybe 3 at the absolute most.

He is not a good fit for any offense, and that’s why he was a QB coach the last 2 years.

I’m convinced Lechler has now taken on the Snake philosophy. I swear tht guy is drunk out there punting the ball. Probably relies he is gone next year.

I too want Shane to retire a Raider.
If he doesn’t, though, and Raiders do release him, he’ll be punting for a team in his home state of Texas.
Texans or Cowboys. More likely Texans since the Cowboys have Brian Moorman (another boomer) on the roster.

If I see Shane wearing a Cowboys uni, I think I might throw something.
October 28th, 2012 at 6:59 pm
This team is a ‘work inprogress’…
There is still plenty of room for improvement.
But winning while that gets worked out is sweet…
Just WIN Baby!
October 28th, 2012 at 6:59 pm
Actually I was never a fan of brooks I always thought he forced to many passes, and was bettEr suited for a which passing spread offense, not deep drop offense he played in here

Could it be Shane was told to quit out kicking the coverage so we could cover a punt?

It’s a possibility. Hang time = death for coverag and our ST has been sub par since I can remember. And I’m old..

Could be , i don’t know the fascination over the other Punter , i seen him take long time in some games and get the kick blocked so not sure if he can get that sh1t corrected or not
October 28th, 2012 at 6:59 pm
He isn’t that good at directional punting.That is the reason Ray Guy is the greatest punter in the history of the game.He not only kicked them long,he kissed the stars and could put it out inside the 5 yard-line.
October 28th, 2012 at 7:00 pm
Knapp should not last the season. He didn’t earn it, but Reggie and DA will not fire/ demote him during the season. Like I said before, I’m not impressed with Reggie or DA so far, Knapp is a moron, and Tarver intrigues me but I rather have a DC with experience like Del Rio.
October 28th, 2012 at 7:02 pm
Where are all the Carson, DA, and Reggie Haters?
Carson is playing steady, D looks meaning, and Reggie’s pick ups look better than any of Al’s overpriced free agents.

Spot on. Guy could nail the coffin corner with his eyes closed. Shane never even tries. Drives me nuts to see the ball just rolling into the end zone. Still love Shane though.

I didnt say the win @ jax & kc were lucky. I expected Palmer to our play gabbert & Quinn I expected our defense to shut those anemic Offesnse down as well. So far in 7 games I only missed on the Pitt game. These next 4 will tell you what this team really is

If our wideouts can’t catch the damn ball, why do we keep throwing to them so much? Especially on third down? I say pound the rock, run some power plays yo. Knapp’s shoddy (predictable) play calling is ruining what was such a dangerous offense just last year.

Well the Jags played GB strong and the Chiefs almost knocked off the Ravens. And also were just coming off a buy against the Raiders. You can also make a case for Miami, they are no slouch ( even though that was a stinker).
You have flawed logic. It’s the NFL, anyone can win.

Palmer loves Knapp. And it seems the relationship between HC, OC, and QB could not be more cohesive.
Yet you are not sold on it. You somehow disagree with our starting, pro bowl caliber qB. As if you know more about football than him.
That says everything right there.
Bottom line is this, when Knapp survives the season, as per our bet, youre going to have to stop the crusade against him and stop taking such ridiculous stances against me in arguments. You are smarter than this. Youre just more stubborn than smart. Not always a bad thing, just in this case.

We have also played a very very weak schedule so far. Pitt was depleted & atl was sleep waking over looking the raiders. The rest of the tea s we have played are trash only slightly better or worse than our own team.

Better Topics?!
You are crazy.
You are defending an OC who was a QB coach because his teams had issues scoring points. scoring points was an issue in ATL, Oak, and Seattle. It’s an issue again, but you rather blame the talent.
———
Crazy? Nope. Im right though.
I dont need to defend Knapp. The players lack of execution on the basic stuff makes it easy to defend the coaching staff.
Stop with your dumb argument. Vick was too stoned to run a offense in ATL, and maybe too stupid seeing as he’s about to get benched in Philly. Seattle had a lot more problems than their OC which is why the whole staff got let go there. And are you really going to keep blaming Knapp for our problems during Kiffin’s/Cable’s tenure here? Our offense got worse once Knapp was demoted and our QB was sippin’ syrup.
Like I said, you make it easy.
Youre hating on a guy that Palmer is really liking. The very fact that you are openly ok with disagreeing with a Heisman / ProBowl / NFL QB about the abilities of a OC are just crazy.
I’d love to see you argue with Palmer about Knapp to his face. The fact is, you probably wouldnt. And if you would, what does that say?
Seriously, any of you who hate Knapp, ask yourselves and answer it here… What does it say about you that you disagree with Palmer regarding our OC? Our team hasnt thrown this coaching staff under the bus, so why would you?

Drop balls and wr’s not getting open, aren’t Knapp’s fault. I still think he lacks severe creativity skills but, it is what it is. We are 3-4 and not 0-7 like some ppl would like us to be. When you’re a debbie downer, bi-polar fan, you need the Raiders to lose to have a talking point.

Our W-L record speaks for itself.
I don’t think anybody in here is saying that the lack of execution was one mans fault… Knapp can’t control the dropped passes in-game obv. but the lack of execution falls directly on the coaching staff, everybody is accountable.
Knapp could fix this by running the ball more— and running it effectively, power style.

I’d like to see less singleback set stretch run plays.

A few more screen plays.

Riff,
Dude, your argument is retarded.
You are blaming the same players who performed last season and defending an OC who has issues with scoring.
Players performing last season is a fact, Knapp having issues with scoring is another fact, but you want to ignore the facts and blame the players.
That’s DUMB!
———
We performed last season? When was that, when we folded down the stretch?
Sure thing buddy. Dropped passes, timely fumbles, stupid penalties… that is your definition of “performing”. Nice.

October 28th, 2012 at 8:01 pm
Palmer shook off an early gaffe & was good enough to win against the cheifs. He deserves credit for making fewer mistakes than his counterpart, & managing a win.
I would say it wasn’t spectacular but an overall solid effort against a very weak opponent.
October 28th, 2012 at 8:01 pm

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 ..

We arent running behind the power blocking scheme anymore or going deep like when Al was here, nor is Hue Jackson, Jason Cambell or anything else we did last year, going to show up in this campaign. Include the record setting penalties under Hands and pedicure offense.

He said that their might be a rift between them. I asked what signs whatsoever were there that either side of the ball has given up on the staff. Because, of course, by all accounts, the locker room is still very much in tact.

Do you not see how you are clinging to the hope that their is an issue with our coach so that your argument prevails?
There is ABSOLUTELY NO SIGN WHATSOEVER that this locker room has given up on any coach on any side of the ball.
You guys will say anything to support your agendas.

so you are telling us you know what the players are thinking? please. CP3 and knapp were seen arguing last game. CP3 is just doing and saying what he’s supposed to say, he does have a job to keep and could easily be let go if the org wants to go another direction or free up cap space. You dont know what these guys are thinking period. they could all be thinkikng fck knapp just like most of us but their pros and have to conduct themselves as such.

Its not just the dropped balls. Its the timely fumbles and countless other dumb mistakes.

Meyers drop

Veldheer letting Palmer get blown up

Abismal DE play
MLB play prior to McClain’s demotion
Should I continue or are you still needing to see more? Knapps play calls have been fine. The design of the offense has been fine. We just need to execute the very simple things.

Macnugget 20,
I have posted on several issues facing the raiders you choose only to acknowledge notice or read certain list & that’s on you.
O line is a hodgepodge, dmac is I’ll suited for the zone stretch. Lack of pass rush & 5th 6th string talent at db. Not to mention Greg knapp & his boring offense.
To be fair though Palmer & knapp appear made for one another as they both are experiencing a bit of a resurgence in the dink & dunk offense
October 28th, 2012 at 8:21 pm
Since the bye week DA and Tarver have this D playing much improved and with a little edge. The d-line has stepped up, nickel D has been solidified with Burris-Wheeler, Huff morphing into a good CB, a lot of improvement.
Knapp needs that jump in the offense starting this week. Get the ball to Reece a few times a game. Get DHB on a few quick hitters so he can run with the ball. Use Ausberry a few times. Goodson maybe 5 times a game or is that too much? DMac is good as a piece, but maybe the game would get a little bit easier for him if the opposing D had someone else to worry about. Get freaking creative!
The O still has a chance starting this week against TB. There were small improvements. Every group needs to step it up.
One Nation Baby…

There is no logical reason for you to be here. Everyone here hates you.

—————
Not publicly, but who knows what they really think. TO said it publicly, others just may not have the balls to do so. I’m sure CP3 also know this O was better in Hues scheme, but will he say that? probably not.
———
Do you not see how you are clinging to the hope that their is an issue with our coach so that your argument prevails?
There is ABSOLUTELY NO SIGN WHATSOEVER that this locker room has given up on any coach on any side of the ball.
You guys will say anything to support your agendas.
—————
so you are telling us you know what the players are thinking? please. CP3 and knapp were seen arguing last game. CP3 is just doing and saying what he’s supposed to say, he does have a job to keep and could easily be let go if the org wants to go another direction or free up cap space. You dont know what these guys are thinking period. they could all be thinkikng fck knapp just like most of us but their pros and have to conduct themselves as such. If I were on the team I’d be pissed they fired Hue and brought in Knapp with his track record.

You can’t argue with trollsters who think they have a better understanding of whats going with the team, than the actual NFL coaches.
If Knapp is good enough to be here next year, DA and Reggie will resign him, if not, he’s gone.

—
Not what i’m saying. I’m saying a Raider fan does not discredit every decent effort the team makes like you have.
You go out of your way to make excuses for why “other teams” lost to us, or almost lost but give no lee-way for the Raiders and anything we might be going through.
We all know the Raiders are 3-4 and nobody is talking SB, but your words are the EXACT things guys who hate the Raiders say.
They criticze us for being happy about a win, discredit EVERY postive thing we do and make excuses for the other team. The other teams NEVER get beat by us…they beat themselves right? Or they “sleepwalk’ through the game.
You don’t sound like a fan ONE BIT.
Saying “I love the Raiders” must have been the most painful lie you’ve ever said.

I think the pass protection has been decent, but Palmer deserves most of the credit in this case. He has been very good unloading the ball quickly & checking down with knapps dink & dunk stuff. Oh a nod to knapps dink dunk as well helping minimize the challenges on our o line

By the way Palmer & knapp deserve credit. Even if you feel they are it very good they do have us a game .500 and within striking distance of the lead. Really can’t talk badly about them unless we have tanked. I also the only surprise has been a surprise win. We have not lost a game to a team we should have beaten yet this season, when was the last time you could sy that?

Raiders might not be a real good team yet but we will look worlds better when we stop dropping touchdown passes and key conversions.

It seems fundamental to me.

Dam Riff thats kinda cold HIT BY A CAR Mistic really gets under your skin.

Honesty is my strong suite.
Seriously, if we found out Mistic got hit by a car, do you think this blog would really care or would we all actually be happy that we didnt have to read his drivel? I think you know the answer to that.
————-
wow over blog comments, you got problems riff I wouldnt wish that upon anyone unless they killed someone I love or sumthn like that you sound like you have anger issues.
———-
Dont put words in my mouth.
I didnt say I wished he’d get hit by a car. I said if it happened, nobody here would miss him. And judging by the heat he takes, its the truth.
————–
I wouldnt SAY that about anyone over some blog disagreement. You have issues seek counselling.
——-
Ahh I see. So not only are you qualified to judge a NFL caliber OC, but you are also a shrink.
Gotcha. Yeah, considering your lack of insight and intelligence on the Knapp topic, I’ll avoid any psychiatric advise from the likes of you. I appreciate your concern though.
Though, I am a little perplexed as to how you think I need help, yet the racist troll hell bent on narcisism isnt shrink worthy in your eyes. Odd scale youre measuring our mental health on if you ask me.
—————
You are a knapp apologist and clearly have anger issues just mentioning someone getting hit by a car over blog comments is proof of that and a real shrink would have a field day with you. Mistic is clearly winning the battle against you, your all upset talking about getting hit by cars and Mistic just laughs your comments off. You have a problem riff and they say the first step is admitting yo have a problem.

No one is saying Reece is a PBer, but it’s clear our offense performed better last season (before losing our best player and starting QB).

By the way Im giving Palmer a knapp credit for he last 2 wins. The scheme has been good enough if not flashy, & Palmer has been efficient enough if not spectacular.
We are seek g the best these two have to offer & it carried us to a win.

there is nothing wrong with what you say Mistic, most here are just homers and dont wanna hear your negativity. You brought some of this on yourself though with your obsession of black qbs.

I don’t think the Raiders should be over confident as well. I’m a realist, just happy about a W. A ton of improving needs to be done. They have shown signs in the lst three weeks ( including the Falcons game). The true test will be to see how they handle Tampa Bay.

Hey idiots like mistic claiming we beat nobodys the past couple of weeks. What do you make of Jags taking Greenbay to the limit, or KC Pushing A relativly healthy Raven Team (at the time) to the limits. Gabbert dropped 300 bills on Greenbay Defense for crap sake. Haters just gonna hate, I’m proud of my raiders especially that defense. They dropped the hammer on those sorry chiefs. Lol, I’m not saying were superbowl bond but its nice seeing our defense play hard and flying around. And I especially Love seeing Carson Palmer playing QB at a high level. On a pass to Meyer he had a dline hanging on his sack and still completed the pass, NOW THAT’S WHAT I’M TALKING ABOUT SON!!!!!
October 28th, 2012 at 9:29 pm
Right we should have demoted Hue and kept him. Also, should have kept the Cable guy and demoted him to the o-line coach-the job he was cut out for.
October 28th, 2012 at 9:33 pm
Nice win today. Finally one where we have some assurance over the last 10 minutes or so that we could confidently claim victory.
Defense is looking much better since the bye. Despite McFadden’s stat line the running game is still scaring me. Offensive line isn’t opening many holes. Though KC prob laid down enough in the 4th quarter to pad DMC’s stats today.
The TB game scares me and will be a crucial one to have if we’re serious about making a run for a playoff spot this year. Both teams may be 3-4, but TB has a +31 point differential for the year while ours is -48. But, then again, it’s 0-0 right now for this game, and that’s all that matters.
October 28th, 2012 at 9:34 pm
500, Unfortunately that is a taboo – speaking FACTS! The fact is, K.C. is last in the league power ranking, Jacksonville second to last; and Raiders are ranked 3rd (no consolation prize for ALMOST upsetting #1 Atlanta). We will have a stronger team to play Sunday. We demonstrate signs of improvement but we are on the wrong end of the ranking scale. GO RAIDERS!!
October 28th, 2012 at 9:39 pm
Screw cable and Hue. I liked them but they are no longer here. You know the phrase ” don’t cry over spilled milk” I think that would apply here. After watching the raiders the Last 10 years I am glad to see a team with some actual fight. But haters gonna Hate, that’s a female trait by the way, Lames

Just cuz some idiot journalists ranks us as #30 doesn’t mean its fact. It’s just there opinion, a stupid one at that. I’m not saying were the best team but at least ranked between 20-25 we took ATL to the limit for crap sake. But I understand why some fans are sceptical, the team has given every reason to be that. I have no predictions nor no expectation of playoffs for this team, all that died for my after the Miami debacle. I’m just taking it week by week, and praying this team just continues to get better each week.

=========================================
We most certainly do, Nycraider. Good post. I think these receivers will get better. Let’s at least hope they do. Without the drops and incorrect routes (like Streater not breaking off the deep route in the red zone), this game is a blowout. Hopefully this is the type of game DMAC needed to get on track.
And wow, did Moore look hampered on that long pass. He scores easily if he’s 100%.
October 28th, 2012 at 10:41 pm
I think Streater is going to do just fine. Criner, on the other hand might be one of those pre-season phenoms that is to slow for prime time?? Time will tell. BTY, Routt was making contact on Criner past five yards on the play in the end zone, so the jury is still out on the rook. I am optimistic!

Mistic says all the things Raider haters say…gives no credit to wins we DO earn and comes on here critcizing the fans for having the nerve to be happy after a win against one of our long time hated rivals.
He’s not a Raider fan. He’s a liar. He says he’s a fan so he can use this forum to spew…whatever it is he’s spewing which is always negative and against the Raiders or about QB’s noone cares about.
I’m sure he says some things that are “true” but it’s all anti-Raider hater talk.
I don’t believe he’s a fan of the Raiders for one second.
He needs to man up and just admit it. It’s fine…just quit b’s ing us with this “i’m a concerned fan” b.s.

———
Yeah, IDK what was up with that.
“Normally” any of our WRs score easily.
Either he’s not 100% or he simply blew his load on the explosion coming out of the screen. Honestly, by the time he made his 3rd and 4th moves and made it to mid field, he’d ran about 40-45 yards, had to use a lot of energy in the initial explosion, and then used up what he had left on the initial moves.
He was probably just out of gas by the time he had one guy left to beat. Totally understandable. Running 100 yds in a straight line is one thing. Doing 50 yards with a lot of cuts takes a lot out of a throrobred like DMo.
October 28th, 2012 at 11:08 pm
If this defense is forreal I can wait on the offense. This defense is sooo solid right now I can’t remember when the last time we could just shut teams down like we’re doing. I know this was a weak team no need to remind me, but the execution is so crisp on D. The know where to be and what to do. The teaching aspect is very evident they are focused on the fundamentals. It’s helping Rolanda get his feet under him again, he’s not nearly as hesitant as he was earlier he’s forcing and reacting instead of guessing now.
If this LB unit can stay together and gel just a bit more I see good things ahead. There’s no more overpursuit and under acheiving they are playing good football. The Dline is the Dline I’ve been saying they were for years TK and Big Sey get great penetration the difference is everyone around them are making tghe plays they should’ve been making for years which makes them look good.
This may have been one of Palmers best games stats aside he was decisive and accurate and shouldered the load like a franchise QB should. If he continues to get better and the running game joins him along with this defense. This could be a very interesting race the rest of the way. The games we dropped agianst SD and ATL may come back to haunt but maybe not. I really think we may have the best defense in the division. It’s looking very promising…
October 28th, 2012 at 11:08 pm
Good point, Riff. You could be right. I’d like to get the coaches’ thoughts on that play. I don’t know…you see returners make a bunch of moves and have enough fuel in their jets to run the length of the field. I’d like to think Moore can match what some of the better returners can do when he’s right.

Try some reality,
Stanford Routt is the highest paid loser in the NFL. If he is worth 39 million dollars, then I guess Champ Baily is worth, 17 trillion! He is not a DB, he is escort: “This way sir, there is the end zone. Have a nice touch down!”
Please be healthy when we meet again, Stanford. It is apparently common knowledge that we were going to go after him today. That we did, to great affect. He was part of some major plays, just as predicted! I am so happy he is not a Raider anymore! Yes, he was breaking the rules today too but the refs let him get away with it because he was going up against rookies!
October 28th, 2012 at 11:10 pm
WINNING is definitely better than losing. That said, the team we played today is even worse than I expected them to be. I’d hate to be a Chiefs fan right now. we’ve been there and done that already. Crennel should be fired sooner than later. That will come as a surprise to no one. He’s simply not a HC but can be a very good DC. He’ll land on his feet somewhere.
Yes we won but it was an effort. Make no mistake, our O-line sucks big time. That’s on DA, Knapp & Pollard. DMac does not fit this scheme & it doesn’t that they are going to change. I read that to mean DMac is disposable and will be gone next year which is a contract year for him. Our WR’s are middle of the road receivers – no better, no worse. I really thought we’d be seeing more of Streeter & Criner. Guess not.
Our O-line is in a state of total disarray. I don’t know if these players can be efficient with this scheme or not. It may take a total replacement to fix. That’s another 3-4 years worth guys. Even Veldheer, our best lineman IMO is regressing under this new scheme. All because they want to do it Knapp’s way. I just don’t understand his influence. Goodson appears to be working out. Now we need to see more of TJones to see if he’s a keeper or not. Our TE’s are a work in progress. I’m happy with CP3 as he’s carrying the team on his shoulders right now. I believe he’s also a good influence on the younger players.
The defense, as broken-up as it has been is starting to come together. I think Tarver is a good add and is doing well with what he got to work with. McChese will be gone next year so that problem will fix itself. Curry may help but that’s yet to be determined. Reggie just needs to find another Burris & Wheeler and we’ll be OK there too. I believe Seymour will be retiring next year – bad knees and aging. The younger guys need to step up. Now for our defensive backfield. I like Huff at CB. He’s playing better there than at FS. We need more CB help & depth but everyone already knows that.
The big surprises next year, (drum roll)…
• CP3 will finally get some respect from Mistic1
• DMac will go to the NY Giants in FA
• Seymour retires
• McCheese gets traded or cut
• Lechler gets traded or cut
• Lienart gets traded or cut
• Hoffman, STCoord., gets fired
• Knapp gets demoted to QB Asst. Coach
• Saunders gets promoted to OC
• TP6 will get moved to #2 QB
• Our primary D next year will be the 3-4

Sorry, JB, but this will NEVER happen. He may muster up some compliments every now and then but they are always backhanded in nature. Last year when Palmer played some of his best ball, he came in and praised Hue for turning Palmer around…or something along those lines.
October 28th, 2012 at 11:18 pm
RoMac had his first forced fumble of his career today.
We just beat a divisional opponent on the road. 2 game win streak. .500 and a 3 game win streak is on the line.
Now the pressure is going to start to mount, along with the momentum.
Can we rise to the challenge?
October 28th, 2012 at 11:19 pm
Lg Rank Offense 16 9
————
we were 16th in scoring and 9th in total O can knapp come close to the top 10 in total offense? insert joke here.
October 28th, 2012 at 11:22 pm
Hey Priest! You are absolute right! But Denver’s defense slipped our o-line around like we stole something from them!
I think RoMac is not a leader but he is superior player. When he had to lead by example he was not able to shoulder the load. Also who wants to the the leader, when the leader may be headed to jail! But when RoMac is a cog on wheel of ‘football players”, he is able to perform his job very well. The rookie Burris makes Romac try harder. If all the cogs on this wheel do their job, then we get what we witnessed today (and last week). R. Wheeler is the D captain in my opinion. He leads by example, after example, after example! He had a so-so game against Jacksonville but he has been OUTSTANDING (literally) the whole season! Wait till the DEFENSE gels!

Can your football IQ rise to the challenge and see that Knapp is trash?
October 28th, 2012 at 11:24 pm
Condo getting injured game one when our primary center Wisniewski was already ruled out, not having prepared for a backup long snapper or adjusting to a more aggresive play calling is on the coaches.
Granted Streater fumbling fighting for a half yard in the red zone was crucial, Raiders have grown.
Palmer and Knapp seem to work well together, they’re in sync, which is most important coach to player combo.
Raiders do need a power back though, Gordon maybe.
October 28th, 2012 at 11:24 pm
Great Raider win today. Just got back from the game. Tons of Raider Nation at KC. McFadden was averaging 1 ypc till late in the game. WTFck is up with that. Palmer is legit but knapp tried to get to cute in the end trying to keep the ball on the ground without getting first downs till McFadden was able to wear the KC defense down. Raiders win regardless of knapps zbs. The turnovers were a big factor. Huge factor. Lets see what kind of offensive game plan the OC can muster up for Tampa. knapp nut huggers can look forward to that. But a win is a win and 12-4 is still possible.
October 28th, 2012 at 11:31 pm
I think either Pryor or Leinart get traded in the offseason, if Reggie drafts a qb in the middle rounds.
By the time Pryor develops he will be a FA.
October 28th, 2012 at 11:35 pm
Don’t no one think our offense is finally coming together. We played a very awful schitty team today. Palmer, McFadden, Moore and DHB are gamers. D was good today. We did what we had to do today, beat a schitty team. But did not look crisp on offense. ZBS still does not work. If Palmer and crew coulda ran the offense from the no huddle, we coulda put up 50 plus points against that garbage. The ZBS WCO scheme is holding this team back. knapp nut huggers, don’t be fooled. Our gamers won this game today. Tampa Bucs will tell it all.
October 28th, 2012 at 11:42 pm
If they let Pryor become a FA by the time he developes that would be a dumb move. The next move is the Raiders the kid is doing what he should be doing preparing for his shot at it. Now if they let him get away they’re idiots.
leinart is a waste as far as Palmer goes I’m liking what I see but he has to continue to get better. He forces the ball to DMo a bit much IMO when others are open. He wait too long in games to use the TE’s and other WR’s he basically is ignoring DHB making the offense struggle more than it should. DHB may not be his favorite but he gets the job done….USE HIM MORE!!
I wish this coach would get his head out of his butt and start running the backup HB more give the kids a chance, how can it hurt? What are they waiting for DMC to get hurt because if that’s what they want it wont take long. Balance it out more…
October 28th, 2012 at 11:50 pm
Right again Priest! Snatched my opinion and posted it! I agree the other HB seems to be a play maker. Sees the whole field and can change directions faster than Dmac. He doesnt run thru you, he makes you whiff! OC, stop force feeding the ball to Dmac! But if this D can force more 3 and outs, then there will be plenty of ball for everybody to have a touch! I believe in the holistic approach: Just like with Ro Mac, if everybody does their part and the whole team is healthy!
October 28th, 2012 at 11:50 pm
While the Chiefs aren’t some great team, they know the Raiders and always play them tough. To point to their record in the rivalry is misguided IMO. The Chiefs routinely play better vs the Raiders. For us to go there and win that way speaks volumns IMO. I think the Raiders are making a move. They got my attention when the went into ATL and basically outplayed them should’ve won. They ahven’t played a bad game since they’re just getting better each week which is what every team has to do to get good. If they continue this incline win or lose by years end the could be very good. Unfortunately they lost games that could cost them a bid into the dance. That does NOT mean they wont be a very good team by years end. The NYG’s barely made the playoffs yet won it all….they were far from the best team all year long just the last month of the season……..anything can happen!!!
October 28th, 2012 at 11:57 pm
Sirblitzalot, I think they will eventually start to do the things they need to do. Sometimes it takes coaches a minute to trust players because they don’t know them. Confidence is a very funny thing when you have it you do things more instinctively and that is true with coaches too. They have to gain confidence in these other players. It may take a while but it needs to happen because too much talent is not getting used and we’re struggling as a result. The talent is THERE, USE IT!
October 29th, 2012 at 12:01 am
Well take it easy fellas….
October 29th, 2012 at 12:07 am
You are right, as a rule when it comes to rivalry games, you can throw out the records it is time for war!
We are already a much different team than the one that Denver spanked! The grind of the NFL may result in attrition of Payton Manning. (His rheumatism may act up) Even so, we will still beat them if we continue to progress at the present rate!
RE: Atlanta game. That was a pretty loss. Offense was making plays left and right. Everybody was holding onto the ball. If we play like that we can beat almost any other team!
Presently, we have to deal with TB, who look pretty good! N.O. looks like a ship without a rudder (the Titanic) but they were able to beat TB! I think if the 12th man shows up, which I fully expect them to do, we should be able to pull this one off and beat TB (I will take care of my section I hope you handle your section(s)!
October 29th, 2012 at 12:12 am
That swing pass to McFadden was over used. Granted it used against a hot garbage team. But look for the Bucs to shut that one out. Good opposing coaches can out fix our OC any day of the year. Knapp butt hole surfers should be very concerned about this as knapp needs to get more backs than just McFadden the ball and use the TE more often. The D did well. Surprised as hell to witness how fantastically horrible KC was. I new they were toilet material, but no question about, they stink. DA, knapp and Tarver really need to put their thinking caps on and game plan for the Bucs. But this will be a game where Palmer will have to use the no huddle to pull this one off.
October 29th, 2012 at 12:32 am
Los Raida,
Amen. No huddle= “No Knap” offense! Even though the rhetoric would have you believe otherwise!
October 29th, 2012 at 1:30 am
Is it just me? or is our defence hurting the other team’s QB and RB’s…just askin’
October 29th, 2012 at 1:57 am
Nice win today, much better than some of us expected.
Stalin had his five year plans to transform the Russian economy. No short term thinking there, but he did show smidgen of ruthlessness to get the job done.
Reggie will have a similar long term plan for the Raiders.
Will he be ruthless?
Time will tell.
Will he be patient?
I hope so.
It took Houston three long and hard years to get their offense clicking. Expecting a clone system to work immediately is pie in the sky thinking.
Perestroika is happening in Alameda
It’s history in the making
The revolution is underway
And some bloggers are revolting.
October 29th, 2012 at 2:55 am
A division rivalry game to win is great like many others said. I just remain to stay level on this. If we would have beaten ATL then Id say ok we beat ATL and PITT but we only beat Pitt a decent team and they were without two huge defensive players. Have to stay level on this, im not gonna lie. I didnt jump up and done or was happy after the win. I just see something maybe others don’t and there s a lack of talent to run the offense and defense that reggie and allen wanna run for NOW. I am a reggie guy. I just hope we arent winning and losing a chance to draft that franchise QB. I still say Palmer hesitates throwing at times and thats because he s a power run and play action QB. He s playing well so far but I can t lie and say I dont want Reggie getting that first pick and Also many more picks. Just think guys would you wanna win a few games now and no play offs but the KC Chiefs get teh QB from Louiville or GENO SMITH. we ll be game plannning for years against those two. Id rather have them on our sideline. PEACE ..GO RAIDERS . THE FUTURE WILL BE BRIGHT

October 29th, 2012 at 5:09 am
Hey fellow fans, I have not said anything in this forum for a few years, but I often come on and read a lot of your posts. I have the very same passion for this organization that a lot of you have. However, after yesterday’s win against the Chiefs and reading some posts this morning, I felt compelled to speak my piece. I saw a post taht said the Raiders would be in the Super Bowl in 2 years and then another guy rplies it would be more like 4. I don’t agree with either statemetn. For one, the receiving corp is one of the weakest in the league and it’s due to the absence of a veteran receiver that can mentor the young guys we have right now. McKenzie’s refusal to pick up Plaxico, Owens or Chad Joohnson at the risk of retarding the development of the young guys is absurd. These young guys don’t know how to cut off a route in order to catch a pass on the backside (away from the defender where Palmer is delivering it) to save their lives. I saw that happen yesterdaya nd Palmer took the kid to the sideline and had to explain it to him. Guys, this is the 8th week of the season and the receiver is just now learning that? Also, we are missing Mike Bush, that thunder and lightening ground game we had last season is gone. There was absolutely no reason to not sign a guy who when McFadden was out averaged almost 30 touches per game. Hue had the offense rolling and all that needed to come around was the defense, but now, both sides of the ball are fairly weak. The Chiefs are garbage and I for one think that if any of us see a super bowl team based on that win yesterday, we’re only fooling ourselves. There is a lot of work to do and I really don’t see it getting started anytime soon. Unfortunately Hue Jackson mortgaged the immediate future to the Bengals for Palmer, so McKenzie needs to build a winner through free agency and I think a start would be in getting either T.O, Plaxico, Chad Johnson or maybe all 3 of them. Hey, they’d all sign one year deals, if the experiment doesn’t work, you’re only committed for that one season. At least bring them into camp and see what they have left in the tank, it can’t hurt anything. Oh on more thing, after watching this offense last season and comapring it to the offense of 2012, I am not impressed with Dennis, I for one think he ruined a good thing.
October 29th, 2012 at 5:13 am
Drubin, I quit your post when you said Reggie blew it buy not signing Plax or Chad or TO,…feel free to stay away you F`n loser.
October 29th, 2012 at 5:22 am
The McKenzie/Allen regime is a marathon, not a sprint folks. Decisions being made this year are first and foremost about building a culture and ethos that will define this team for years to come.
Smart, tough, disciplined football as Allen so often likes to cite is not just a cliche to throw around at press conferences. It’s more about developing draft picks and bringing in players with the right mentality for the long haul. Unfortunately, this leads to a bumpy road and sometimes 1 step forward and 2 steps back feeling.
The old days of maxing the credit card every season and gambling for a winner at the expense of building depth consistent with your scheme and team culture/chemistry are over.
Enjoy the ride – will be fun!
October 29th, 2012 at 5:36 am
Smart, tough, disciplined football as Allen so often likes to cite is not just a cliche to throw around at press conferences.
********************************************************
Allen does like his coach-speak. Thing is though, when he says something needs to be worked on and improved, we generally see improvement in that area.
Take the penaly issue, for example. Allen’s predecessor would announce weekly that “We’re going to get this fixed, I promise you.” Never happened, in fact the team set a modern record for penalties in a season.
“We’re building a bully.” What actually happened is that the team would lay down in the second half, and if things looked bleak, would quit altogether. Allen has stressed finishing and fighting until the end, and that’s exactly what his team is doing.
Nice to see the performance match the rhetoric this time.

PFT is reporting that in league circles and in the Philly locker room, it is believed that Nnamdi is not passionate about football like he used to be.
We let him walk and got a 3rd round compensatory pick for him, and there isn’t a team in the league that would trade a 3rd round pick for him.
Sometimes letting these guys go and getting that comp pick is the best way. We will probably get a 5th rounder for letting Routt walk.
What a bargain!!!
October 29th, 2012 at 6:13 am
Shane netted a putrid 29.5 yards a punt yesterday.
I think that knee surgery was more than what it was made out to be.
October 29th, 2012 at 6:15 am
JFB, don’t know if you caught it yesterday … I posted something about it shortly after I saw it … the GEICO play of the day was Nnamdi getting torched for a 60-yard TD.
I always thought he was overrated anyway. I said it here many times and got roasted by other fans. He is good, but not a Deion or Revis elite CB.
In Oakland, he benefited from an atrocious run defense and terrible CB play on the opposite side. Why would teams even bother to throw at you if they can run all over you and easily throw to the other side. So he looked like a great CB because nobody would ever throw to his side of the field. The reality is that he was the least weakest part of a very weak defensive unit overall.
Eagles paid way too much for him. I’m glad it was them and not the Raiders.
October 29th, 2012 at 6:19 am
I did see that, and he was toasted.
Although, for him these days, at least getting burnt by a stud like Julio Jones is an upgrade from getting roasted by team’s 3rd WR, lol.
October 29th, 2012 at 6:20 am
WELL SAID TEXAS.HE IS 1 OF THE GOOD GUYS AS FAR AS HIS WORK IN THE COMMUNITY/CHARITY GOES,BUT AN ELITE CB,NO WAY.
October 29th, 2012 at 6:20 am
Nnamdi is a long strider too, those guys at all positions, deterioate much more rapidly as they get older.
The quickness and suddenness of the game passes them by.

Yeah, 2 of our 3 wins are against 1-6 teams, but this is the NFL…you lay down on them (which is what almost happened last week), they will come an bit ya!

the conspiracy crap needs to stop in here … sounds like whiners to me … good teams don’t need excuses … the blocking in the back call was obvious on McFalldowns long gain … last week, the raiders played awful and committed a ton of dumb penalties … they heard about it last week in practice and the results were positive … I say just play sound fundamental football and all those conspiracy theories will fade away like a bad dream

2nd the motion about Denver … I hate everything about denver … i even hate denver boy scouts … but right now, they are the class of the AFC West … the 1-2 combo of peyton and McGayHe is hard to stop … but raiders have to find a way to stop them if they even want to think about winning the division

Ghost,
I hear what you’re saying but I would like some clarification on that onside kick call yesterday if anybody knows.
My understanding was you can’t call ‘batting the ball’ IF the other team touches it first.
It wouldn’t have mattered probably in the outcome, but it just seemed weird.
Raiders have had “weird” calls over the yr’s. go against them.
October 29th, 2012 at 7:26 am
…let me clarify to say IF the other team touches it at all.
October 29th, 2012 at 7:28 am
I wanted to kill someone back in 1998-1999 when the Broncos won back to back SBs. It made me sick. I am surrounded by Bronco fans here. I secretly hate them all.
October 29th, 2012 at 7:29 am
Cam is got ripped on Mike and Mike this morning, saying that a Carolina writer believes he overheard players say that Cam Newton threw his end of the first half hail-mary (from the 33 yard line) OOB because he didn’t want to risk an INT on his stats.
Cam won’t start another 20 games in Carolina. They fired the GM so the new guy is not committed to him.

I believe, the only time you can intentionally bat a ball OOB without penalty is when you do it out of your own end zone for a safety.
It is always a penalty otherwise, onside kicks, fumble in play, etc, no matter who touches it first.
October 29th, 2012 at 7:32 am
Yup, but they made NO look like crap last night! But, NO does not have the D like before and they are worse than us in the run game!

Yes, but, if it wasn’t for the “offsides” penalty, would the team that batted the ball OOB still get it?
October 29th, 2012 at 7:35 am
“You might’ve heard this stat by now, but it’s so amazing it should be repeated a million times and shouted from the rooftops and included in every story once Crennel and general manager Scott Pioli are canned for leading this mess: The Chiefs are the first team to go seven weeks without a lead in regulation since 1940.
Nineteen-forty.
Do you know what the NFL was in 1940? The Brooklyn Dodgers finished second in the NFL’s Eastern Division. The Pittsburgh Pirates renamed themselves the Steelers. Players had day jobs. Lamar Hunt turned 8 years old.”

O-Line improved only because we played a vastly inferior team. They need to continue to harp and them and get them up to speed! Maybe this is what they needed to start to believe in themselves, but KC beat themselves as much as we beat them.
Our WR needed to catch the dang ball! That’s your only job, catch the damn ball!
Good win for the Raiders and CP Is da man!!
October 29th, 2012 at 7:36 am
After this 5-11 or 6-10 season, I hope we sign Norv as our OC. He should be looking for work by then.
October 29th, 2012 at 7:37 am
Raiders weird calls, been plenty of those over the years ever since the immaculate reception by franco … one that stands out in my mind — I forget the year — but it was the AFC championship game, the gay “Orange Crush” team … Denver driving for the winning TD in the final minute … Raiders force a fumble near the goal line and recover it … refs confer and say runner was down … denver scores and then gets their asses handed to them by staubach and the cowboys in the Super Bowl … yep, plenty of huge calls have gone against Raiders … but it’s ancient history … time to start a new trend where maybe we get some of those calls like last week on the PI against Jax
October 29th, 2012 at 7:42 am
The penalty on Branch for the batted ball was because he batted it forward. You can knock a ball OOBs anytime so long as it is not advanced.
October 29th, 2012 at 7:45 am
I wont drink donky coors either haha.
October 29th, 2012 at 7:46 am

a lot of people bashing DAllen in here … but you know what? gotta give him some credit for sticking to his guns and seeing the big picture … I get fans wanting wins now … hell, I want wins now … but Allen was hired to make the Raiders viable in the future … I can see that happening, slowly but surely

Maybe not. Just seems like it to me.
October 29th, 2012 at 7:57 am
Penalties aren’t reviewable, and it was very close. The penalty was nullified by a KC penalty anyways. Big Sey was chopping at the bit for a 4th qtr lead so he could rough him a qb! LOL

Watching DA grow into the job is becoming way more interesting as it actually loosk like he will succeed…
Seeing or D play with intensity, every play has helped.
Still have a long ways to go, but feeling much better about the HC and DC after these last 4 weeks…

Btw Chico, we didn’t score any points against KC last season and we still managed to score more points after 7 games.
October 29th, 2012 at 8:02 am
We need to win 2 of our next 4 games. That would leave us at 5-6 with the easiest part of our schedule coming up. Three straight games at home and end out with Carolina amd the chokers on the road.

O-line pass blocked very well yesterday but it took too long to get the run going…We have to start popping some big ones earlier in the game…Defense is really coming around…We have our best LBs in ages in Burris and Wheeler…Fast, instinctive and can play the run and pass well…Huff, Lee and Hanson covering well too…Good to see Branch rebound…WRs have to do some maturing and help Carson more.

How in the world can someone with a name like Amysincharge call me a loser. Take the skirt off your own behind, make AMY give you back your big boy boxers, wear the pants on in your house first f@g before you talk to a real man that way.
Now with taht being said, I don’t care for T.O, Plax or Chad Johson on a personal level, I think they’re all dunces at the lowest level, but those guys can play receiver and talent wise they’re better than anything the Raiders have right now. Liek I said, 1 year contract to 1 or all of them and keep it at that. What cant he Raiders lose other than games and that’s nothing new at this point.
October 29th, 2012 at 8:28 am
I dont remember if he switched pos. Just a fs in my brain fog.

Great Game by the Raiders. And how bout those shenanigans where Crennell comes out and says Brady Quinn is going to play the entire season, and then yanks him after three series? Suuuurrrrrrrre his bell got rung. But any way, we got to see two of my favorite plays in football gotta love the roughing the Q where their Oline gets pissed. And some of you don’t like Rich Seymour. And my favorite play: the Kneeldown
October 29th, 2012 at 8:33 am
#659: Quinn went out with a concussion…Looked like crap until then anyway…Seymour played well but slamming Cassel near the end was stupid and cost a TD.

Good job Raiders, Coaches and Players seem to be coming together at the right time and I think a previous lack of trust-chemistry was holding us back up until last week, I loved to see DA showing McFadden some love after one of his runs, I think it’s the first time I’ve seen DA show that kind of support for a player on the sidelines and that means something to those guys.
There’s talent on this team and the Coaching is getting better every week, with some bumps of course but kudos to DA, Knapp and Tarver as well as the players for taking care of business yesterday.
October 29th, 2012 at 8:36 am
Have to admit I got a bit worried when Quinn went out…Brought to mind the Denver game in Oakland the last year we went to the Superbowl…We knocked Griese out and the Donks came back behind their vet backup (Can’t recall him at moment) and made a tight game of it…After the game Romo said taking Griese out was the worst thing they could have done.

What were the penalties called on the KC on-side kick ? KC was flagged offsides and I think Branch got flagged for swatting the kick out of bounds ?
Was watching the game in a sportsbook and the sound was on for the Cowboy/Giant game. Still not sure what the refs called there.
Is it illegal for Branch to knock the ball out of bounds there ? Seen that done quite a few times before and it’s never been penalized. In fact, I’ve seen it done and the player applauded for making a ‘heady’ play.
Rule change ? Or did the refs blow that one ?

I think it was called because Branch knocked the ball out forward. The ball gained half a yard. As I said, I think that’s what was called. Even the announcers were like, “Someone’s going to have to explain that one to me.”
October 29th, 2012 at 8:52 am
Well, GOOD MORNING!!!
And what a FINE morning to be a Raider/SF Giants fan, is it me or does the air smell extra sweet this morning?
To my good friend, DMAC: With all due respect, if the A’s had made it to the Series, they would have enjoyed the same fate as the Tigers. There was no stopping this Giants team, and if you think otherwise, you’re kidding yourself.
Oh, and btw everyone, the SF Giants are exactly the type of team Reggie’s trying to build here. Smart, team oriented, ballers, high on execution. The Wheeler and Burris types. Looking forward to it.

Anyone still upset with getting rid of Routt? He got that one pick but after that they beat on him all day. And Asomugha is just looking terrible in Philly, constantly getting torched. Could Huff actually be better than Routt and Aso? And could Miles Burris be our MLB next season with Wheeler and a healthy Curry Playn outside? Just wondering.
October 29th, 2012 at 9:13 am
I’m no fag or homo, but I luv seeing dem’ dreads flying everywhere, especially when he’s launching at the QB every game.

Great FA acquisition Reggie.
Now you need to lock him up for a few years.

Anyone still upset with getting rid of Routt? He got that one pick but after that they beat on him all day. And Asomugha is just looking terrible in Philly, constantly getting torched. Could Huff actually be better than Routt and Aso? And could Miles Burris be our MLB next season with Wheeler and a healthy Curry Playn outside? Just wondering.
——————————————
Love the energy Wheeler brings to this team. Burris has much upside. McClain is right where he should be on the bench and coming in to make solo plays here and there.
I don’t think Curry is the answer because the poor guy just can’t stay healthy. Hard to make it in any sport with knees aging early. But I hope I am wrong.

Yesterday’s game continues to prove my point that when you run and stop the run, you will win most of your games.
Yes turnovers helped, but 2 were picks that will happen when you stop the run and force an offense to be one dimensional.
I am tired of hearing how many of our rush yards came in the 4th quarter. Do you know how many games we would have won the last ten years if we could have run the ball in the 4th quarter?????
The game is won on the line of scrimmage and we won those battles yesterday. We need to bolster both lines in next years draft with our first two picks but more change is coming. McClain and Seymour both will be gone as we cut overpaid players.(See Routt. What an Ahole for making his getting paid comment by half the AFC west). That is what has been wrong for the Raiders for years.

October 29th, 2012 at 9:37 am
So the penalty was for batting the ball forward ? Guess I can buy that, although it didn’t look like the ball went forward – seemed like it was parallel and Branch’s intention was just to knock it out and give the Raids possession, certainly not gain yardage.
Branch played a real solid game yesterday didn’t he ?
Nice win over a pretty lousy team.
Still disappointed over the red zone futility and the inability to get a run game going. Krapp’s playcalling is still horrendous. The first quarter ‘draw’ to DMAC in the red zone, actually drew some groans and laughter in the sportsbook. Just incredibly bad.
Another very good game from CP although his numbers probably weren’t great. As long as he plays like Carson and not TIM Palmer we’re OK at QB. CP is doing a helluva job running the no-huddle. Impressive stuff, especially when you consider the absence of a running game. Would have been even better without a few drops. Was good to see a few shots taken into the end zone.
Defense did a darn good job of limiting KC’s run game. Much improved in that respect. Consistent pressure and knock downs on Cassell and Quinn. Matt took a good beating.
Considering KC’s gift turnovers, this could have been a blow out win. Corky almost got that right.
I’d actually be feeling pretty good about heading in the right direction if it wasn’t for Krapp.

Against Denver, Huff wasnt up to speed and Slolando was still playing every down…now that Huff is up to speed, and Slo has been demoted, you are starting to see a much tougher defense, mainly because Wheeler and Buris are all over the field…I am still surprised Jamaal Charles was made to look that bad.

You could be right. No doubt Jax and KC aren’t good measuring sticks.
Still, we did a pretty good job of limiting KC’s run game.

Hopefully it’s not all due to the level of competition.

I’m old school when it comes to Raiders Chiefs. ANYTIME we win against them is a cause for a at least a mini celebration.
It’s a rivalry game no matter what the records are and when we win…it’s awesome.
I realize KC is a bad team and it’s no reason to buy SB tickets yet, but it’s the Chiefs…on the road at Arrowhead. That still means something in my mind.
Especially after the 28-0 beatdown we had last yr. in Palmer’s first appearence and having to hear all the KC fans give us crap for that…well now we’ve won two in a row from them…both at Arrowhead.
I don’t think beating the Chiefs will ever become meaningless for me…regardless of the records coming into a game.

The Miami beatdown is a little more palpable…not a lot… but after seeing wht they did to the Jets yesterday?
All the experts agree Miami has a good D…and our defense was still getting it’s bearings at that time.
I still don’t like it, but i feel a little..less worse about it.
Denver is a different story. Manning looks to be getting better and better. He looks better than I’ve ever seen him and they get stronger as the season rolls on.
Since the 2nd half of the SD game they’ve been a freaking juggernaut…almost unstoppable.
The league has had years and years to gameplan against Manning and he just continues to torch everybody.
What is the secret code to stopping “ole moonface”?
October 29th, 2012 at 10:11 am
Hey overexcited morons…We have just BARELY beat the worst team in the NFL, and hardly dominated the 31st. Thus, everyone calm the F down about offense and defense. We have seen nothing other than better run D -ie 1) We can’t run the ball 2) We can’t effectively move the ball in the red zone 3) Our pass defense is still horrid and 4) We still have too many 3 and outs.

Tank the season? The season was over when we started 0-2…time to jettison some of the dead weight that is holding our salary cap hostage and load up on picks.
I understand that many of you are still hoping the body rises from the casket at the wake, but I will leave that to the blind hope of the child-like mind.
Denver is going to win this division easily and we will be about 6-10.
Long term thinking is what we need now.

8-8 is not out of reach. 9-7 may be pushing it but its not out of reach.
The club has been improving steadily under DA. Yesterday was a great game and game plan. Wearing them down in the 4th quarter was a big deal for me.

One mystery of the 2011 season to me was the virtual disappearance of the no huddle after the SD game.
CP and the O sure looked good running the no huddle in SD, yet we hardly used it down the stretch.
Still not sure why that happened.
Krapp is crap, he’s a horrid play caller and an abysmal OC, but at least he deserves some credit for recognizing that CP does a very good job of running the no huddle and is making extensive use of it.
October 29th, 2012 at 10:55 am
Carson Palmer clearly stated Sunday night that Denarius Moore is his go-to guy.
Moore has a touchdown in three straight games and is averaging a hefty 16.1 yards per reception. “I think everyone knows that he’s the man in our locker room, but I don’t know if guys around the league know about him yet,” Palmer said. “He’s young and has had some injuries, but he is finally healthy.” Moore gets to face the bottom-barrel secondaries of the Bucs, Ravens and Saints in the next three weeks.

The Raiders D line — anchored by Seymour — dominated yesterday’s game. Is Seymour overpaid? Yes. Is he helping the team right now? Undeniably yes. I think his bum knee is feeling better and it’s showing in his play. Outside of his outrageous salary — which isn’t his fault — Seymour is playing well right now and should get some love in here.

Back in the early 70′ Coors was not sold out east and every relative that came to vegas wanted Coors to take home.
I worked with two old bricklayers in 76 and one of my jobs as labor was to make sure Coors beer was cold. They started drinking about 9 and the one old boy had a heart attack and died on the scaffold right when we went down for lunchbreak. I can still still picture it to this day.
He died with a serene look on his face and that cold can of Coors in his hand

October 29th, 2012 at 11:03 am
Anybody who thinks a new GM and coaching staff should have this team 6-1 at this point is delusional.
We have made horrible player decisions in free agency and ignored our lines in the draft for the last ten years.Not just some bad ones but a lot of horrible ones.
JR,Napolean Harris, Teyo Johnson, Phil Buchannon, Gibril wilson, Webster Slaughter, Randy moss, Javon Walker, Deangelo Hall, Gerard Warren, Terdell Sands.
Too many people on this blog are football ignorant.
We have been pathetic for a decade. Not just bad but PATHETIC. Pissing away player salaries on guys like Routt.
Be thankful that we are on the right track and get ready for a heavy dose of offensive and defensive line draft picks.

I love some of the posters in here saying the Seymour play was stupid. Then some talk Raider football and say where is it? Raider football is big, tough, mean football to just after the whistle. THAT is what that play was. Raider football is about guys coming out wanting to fight. That’s what that play was. Seymour maybe the ONLY guy who is ready to fight. Raider football is about laughing while the other team is writhing on the ground and pissed off. That’s what Seymour brings. I wish others brought it.

Like I said, I hope we can find a sucker or two to take some of those guys. Maybe there is a team out there who wanted to draft McClain and have not paid attention to what a flop he has been, or maybe they think he can play in a 3-4.
Maybe a contending team is looking to buttress their d-line with Kelly or Seymour?
Maybe a team needs a guy to watch wrs catch Tds and then point at his teammates like it was all them? If so branch is your man!

That was when we dominated both lines of scrimmage. We could take stupid penalties and still win.
We are no where near that good. We need to play smart.
Seymour is a poor value relative to his salary.
He will not be on the team next year. Our number one pick will be a DT.
Great to win but we are not the Raiders of old.

Seymour’s meltdowns are exactly what Shaugnessy, Houston, and Bryant do NOT need. Seymour’s lackluster work ethic and not attending off season workouts with the team are exactly what those guys DON’T need either. They should be looking to Wheeler he is the emerging leader of the D.
R Seymour is a throw back that should be thrown back. As usual Seymour/Glenn you are on the wrong side of every issue, just like Hussein.

We need a 6 game winning streak to even think about this division starting with yesterday not last week. If you need OT to beat the Jags with their best RB and QB out of the game you got problems.
I like the direction of the Defense. McClain in his new role is thriving and Burris and Wheeler are playin BIG. A Carter, where are you ? A Curry is not even needed because I dont want to see Burris sit down.
October 29th, 2012 at 11:23 am
If getting handled without double teams = old self I guess you are right. If Seymour was at least drawing 2 guys I would be a little better with his lack of production but 1 guy is handling him alone.

Uh, he did attend the offseason workouts with the team. You are confusing the staff letting him have a day off earlier during the bye. And the reason they were doing that was they were REWARDING him for being a stellar player and an excellent role model.

Enough of Seymours’ salary was guaranteed this year that it would have been really stupid not to play him. He probably won’t be here next year, but I still applaud Al for bringing his attitude and leadership into a drifting aimless defense. He has disappeared at times, but I think that is more aging body than attitude. He has committed some dumb personal fouls, but big ben and last night weren’t among them.

==================================================
Charlie, I’m old enough to have witnessed the great O lines.
Yes, the OLine of the 70’s was one of the greatest ever assembled. Shell, Uppy, 00/Dalby, Vella, Buehler. One for the ages.
I absolutely agree that players are more important than coaches and think your ‘80% of the game’ figure is reasonable.
I do not think it’s fair to place all of the blame on Krapp for the Raider ground game futility.
That said, I do think it’s fair to question the move to the ZBS, or at the very least the inability to have it functioning well by this stage, or having the right personnel to execute it.
I also agree that while an OC is limited in his playcalling capabilities by the personnel available to him, that Krapp is a horrible playcaller and does not use the roster to maximum advantage.
IMO, Krapp is largely (but not completely) responsible for the regression we’ve witnessed offensively. I also think his playcalling stinks and don’t think that’s mainly attributable to personnel woes.
I think we can do a lot better than Krapp.

It looks like I hit a hot button with the term “football ignorant”. I am simply of the opinion that there will not be a quick fix to the mess we have been in for the last ten years. Too many people look at changing schemes and critizing coaches because the fix is percieved as quick and easy.
(How did the Eagles D look yesterday after firing the DC?)
It implies that hope for a Super Bowl contender is just around the corner.
IT IS NOT.
Winning in the NFL requires superior Offensive and Defensive linesa and a competent QB. Those units take time to build and they have been neglected for ten years. Other than Grove,Gallery and Wiz II we have not invested a first or second round pick on either line in the last ten years.You might find the next Upshaw in the 7th round but the odds are against it. (Upshaw was a first round pick).
We are making progress and I have been and always will be a Raider fan.
Thinking coaching changes and new schemes will fix things is what we have tried for the last ten years and it has failed. We need to focus on upgrading player talent and it will take time GIVEN WHAT REGGIE INHERITED.
