Raiders confirm hiring of Sparano
By Steve Corkran
Wednesday, January 23rd, 2013 at 6:01 pm in Oakland Raiders.
The Raiders hired Tony Sparano as an assistant head coach/offensive line coach Wednesday.
Sparano replaces Frank Pollack, who was fired by the Raiders after one season. He spent the 2012 season as the New York Jets offensive coordinator before being fired soon after the season ended.
Sparano will be tasked with converting the Raiders offensive line from the zone-blocking scheme to a power-blocking scheme.
He got his first NFL coaching job in 1999 and spent the 2008-11 seasons as the Miami Dolphins head coach.
Coach Dennis Allen now has filled all but the linebackers coach vacancy on his staff. Earlier, he hired Greg Olson to be his offensive coordinator and Bobby April as his special teams coordinator.
Here is the Raiders release on Sparano’s background:
Former NFL head coach and offensive coordinator Tony Sparano will join the Raiders as assistant head coach/offensive line, Head Coach Dennis Allen announced Wednesday.
The addition of Sparano, who joins the Raiders after spending the 2012 season as N.Y. Jets offensive coordinator, leaves only one vacancy on Oakland’s staff, linebackers coach. Sparano will begin his duties with the Raiders at Senior Bowl practices this week in Mobile, Ala., where Oakland is coaching the North squad before Saturday’s game.
Sparano, who in 2013 enters his 30th year in coaching, has nine combined seasons as a head coach, four (2008-11) at the reins of the Miami Dolphins and five (1994-98) at the University of New Haven.
Prior to his season with the Jets in 2012, Sparano compiled some impressive accomplishments in his first season as Dolphins head coach, a position he held from 2008-11. In ’08, he steered Miami to the greatest year-to-year improvement in NFL history, a 10-game difference as the Dolphins earned the AFC East crown with an 11-5 record, before losing in the Wild Card round of the playoffs. Sparano finished one vote shy of winning the Associated Press Coach of the Year. His career record as an NFL head coach is 29-33.
Sparano helped the Cowboys to three playoff appearances and four winning seasons in five years (2003-07) on the Dallas staff, including four under head coach Bill Parcells. Sparano tutored the tight ends from 2003-04, then served as offensive line coach/running-game coordinator from 2005-06, before shifting to assistant head coach/offensive line in 2007.
Prior to two one-year stops as a tight ends coach, with Marty Schottenheimer’s Redskins in 2001 and Tom Coughlin’s Jaguars in 2002, Sparano helped launch the expansion Cleveland Browns. In 1999, Cleveland’s first year back in the NFL, Sparano was an offensive quality-control coach. He spent 2000 in charge of the Browns’ offensive line.
Sparano made the jump to the NFL after five years as head coach (1994-98) of his alma mater, Division II New Haven, where he guided the Chargers to a pair of NCAA playoff berths. In 1997, his 12-2 club led the country in scoring offense (42.8 points per contest) and ranked second in scoring defense (11.6) before it lost in the national championship.
He spent the previous six seasons (1988-93) at Division I-AA Boston University, coaching the Terriers’ offensive linemen from 1988-89 before serving as offensive coordinator from 1990-93.
A native of West Haven, Conn., Sparano launched his coaching career at New Haven, a four-year stint (1984-87) as offensive line coach, after completing his college playing days at the school, as the team’s center.
He and his wife, Jeanette, have three children, sons Tony and Andrew, who each played football at Albany, and daughter Ryan Leigh.
Years College/Pro Team Position Coached
1984-87 New Haven Offensive Line
1988 Boston University Offensive Line
1989 Boston University Offensive Coordinator
1994-98 New Haven Head Coach

I’m surprised we managed to get Sparano as our O-line coach; I don’t think he’s cut to be a head coach, but as our O-line coach I’m happy with the hire.

January 23rd, 2013 at 6:10 pm
I really liked that STedman Bailey kid from WVU at WR, also the dude from Oklahoma with the funky hair.
If we can get either in the 3rd round, I would be pleased.
January 23rd, 2013 at 6:10 pm
hahhahaah and M1st1c jus claimed blog victory over the same topic he has been talking about 2 years n counting , lol what a loser, what kinda school did these losers go to ?
January 23rd, 2013 at 6:11 pm
Lakers should have tried to trade for this Calderon dude from Toronto.
Would have cost a lot less than Nash, and he is probably a better player at this stage.
January 23rd, 2013 at 6:12 pm
Should make a super assistant head coach/offensive line coach. However, say No to headcoach….would be similar to Norv Turner as a headcoach. Thanks for thee update, Cork.
January 23rd, 2013 at 6:12 pm
M1st1c and beech went to same Claim you victory on blog school together lol
January 23rd, 2013 at 6:14 pm
I don’t necessarily hate the move, but why not bring back Wylie? I’m thinking that the current regime really pissed him off when he was fired, and burned that bridge as a result. Sparano could be a better option, so ill reserve final judgment. All of this seems very similar to me of Mike Nolan’s tenure with the 49ers. He was trumped up to be some great head coach up and comer because he said all the right things, but in the end it didn’t work out. If we don’t see a drastic turnaround, then they need to clean house again.
January 23rd, 2013 at 6:16 pm
Bring in Greg Williams to coach the LBs.
Would score a lot of points within the coaching community.
January 23rd, 2013 at 6:20 pm
Mcfadden-last night you went on and on for everyone to ignore missytic. begged everyone.
Your last 10 posts have been all about missytic.
You change your mind more than an old woman.
are you a woman?
January 23rd, 2013 at 6:23 pm
So what happend to no one wants to come here ?
Sporano took a OL coach position?????
We got a top notch STs coach???
How did that happen?
January 23rd, 2013 at 6:24 pm
OC/DC/HC are all either newbies or nobodies.
But Sparano was a great hire. Probably a one and done for him.
January 23rd, 2013 at 6:24 pm
Wow.. d12 kills me.. for him to have no offensive game at this point in his career is shocking. without the ability to jump two feet higher than everyone else he is just weak.. cant pick cant roll cant post cant dribble cant shoot..
January 23rd, 2013 at 6:27 pm
I tried to tell you guys about Howard.
Cringed at the thought.
would MUCH rather have Bynum.
January 23rd, 2013 at 6:29 pm
The biggest winner in this Lakers fiasco is Stan Van Gundy.
What he got out of those Magic teams and Howard, should get him the pick of the liter job in the NBA next offseason.
January 23rd, 2013 at 6:30 pm
JHill,
You just said LA was going to coast into the 8th spot?
Changing your mind so soon?
January 23rd, 2013 at 6:31 pm
JHill,
Greg Williams as LBs coach … Interesting. New Orleans connection with DA. I’m sure no one’s going to throw him a DC position at this point so it’d probably be the best if not only offer he’d get. Would bring some fire and experience to the staff and could mentor Tarver a bit.
I’d be surprised if Chubby Checker considered it though. I think CC only wants choir boys. Hence passing on Burfict for Stupar.
January 23rd, 2013 at 6:32 pm
sparano should do well here i also would have loved wylie and wiz back they did a great job owell i like the sparano move
January 23rd, 2013 at 6:34 pm
Being that nobody drafted Burfict and they all probably drafted a srub in the 7th round, does that mean everyone in the league “wants choir boys”?
January 23rd, 2013 at 6:34 pm
who do u guys think will be the linebackers coach any names being thrown around

Dwight hurt and out of the game?
LOL
January 23rd, 2013 at 6:35 pm
No way they considered Wylie. Would’ve been too close to admitting they made a mistake last year ousting Wylie, Hue and co.
January 23rd, 2013 at 6:38 pm
Bob Wylie is out of football isn’t he?
Enough with the guys that leave us and don’t even get ANY job close to what they had here.
Sparano is a great hire. Wylie is a great low-level magic trick guy.

Not necessarily. But CC didn’t take any of those personality type gambles in the draft, free agency or in his coaching selections. There was even a story about all the new guys having strong religious backgrounds last year. And it’s pretty clear that he’s intent on painting over the Raiders outlaw image and making the team more like the Packers west.

January 23rd, 2013 at 6:45 pm
The football side of the building is a joke….
I was waiting until the season ended to share my final thoughts on RM….but he has failed…
If McKenzie had correctly realized his hiring of ALLEN was a mistake that would have been fine, he could have moved on and tried again….after all, hiring a Head Coach is ONLY 1 part of his job….talent evaluation and conducting the personnel department is tough enough….However, failure to SEE that the man he hired is COMPLETELY IGNORANT is NOW unforgivable as he has chosen to support him.
If I was Mark Davis….I would FIRE everyone….
Start OVER…NOW!
The PLAN that was SUPPOSED to be in place is little more than a GLORIFIED fire DRILL….
1st, Mark Davis hires RM based on the recommendation of Madden & Wolf….two men who are far past their prime with little to no accountability to the decision.
2nd, McKenzie hires his GUY, DA….
Mind you this is all part of a plan…
3rd, DA decides on Knapp, Tarver, and Hoffman….
4th, Season ensues….team finishes 4-12….arguably the worst Defense in the organizations history….the TEAM hitches it HAT on the ZBS, tells the fans to be patient….
Fans are patient….and McFadden has worst season in the history of his FOOTBALL life….
5th, prior to the season finale, DA says Pryor isn’t even ready to be a backup in the NFL…..then the NEXT week….Pryor starts a game and leads the Offense to 3 TD’s when we hadn’t scored in 3 weeks….
6th, Allen says Pryor has earned a right to be evaluated…
7th, DA fires Knapp and Hoffman….when it twas the defense that was arguably the worst in the teams history….
8th, we hire Jags QB coach to take over Offense…a team who we beat this season….
9th, we hire Sparano to lead the Offensive Line….a guy who’s career is on the way down….not up….
Mind you….this is ALL part of a MASTER PLAN….
Reggie McKenzie are so INTELLIGENT that they KNEW that Sparano and Olsen would be jobless this season….
Hey REGGIE AND DENNIS….do you play CHESS?

The NBA is loaded with Euro style offenses. Pick and pop, bigs spreading the floor, hell even the dribble-drive has some roots in the Euro game.
But not many Euro style defenses, lol.
January 23rd, 2013 at 6:51 pm
DA and possibly CC will be out next year as Jon Gruden becomes head coach with final say of personnel decisions of the 2014 Los Angeles Raiders.
January 23rd, 2013 at 6:51 pm

January 23rd, 2013 at 6:52 pm

Fact: Bill Callahan changed the gameplan 2 days prior from a run-heavy scheme to a pass-heavy scheme.
Fact: Jon Gruden prepared his team extraneously for the Raiders pass attack and went as far as “playing” the role of Rich Gannon…(watch at 1:37) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Qqk3Plqmg8
————–
Conclusion: No matter how you slice it Callahan was an idiot for changing the scheme last second. The Raiders would have had a better shot going balanced or run heavy. Gannon threw 5 int’s in that game three of which were returned for touchdowns.
January 23rd, 2013 at 6:54 pm
Why can’t they ever rebound the ball, wtf is wrong with these people, why won’t every freaking guy crash the board, 42 games into season, n 1 would think they should learn to do that

Sporano and Saunders in the offensive brain trust and mentoring DA is a very good thing. Olson, not so much. But the staff is looking alot better with the Sporano hiring. Fix the oline, get a big back to spell DMAC and find another receiver and the offense is looking pretty good.
January 23rd, 2013 at 7:03 pm
Sporano should do a good job with the oline and offense in general. At the least, if DA chokes again this season, there’s a guy on staff with HC experience they can turn to if need be.
January 23rd, 2013 at 7:03 pm
I think we need to find an all-around back, a Ray Rice/Doug Martin type.
I realize, easier said than done. But we need a plan B from McFadden , not only for 2013 but beyond.
What if he gets hurt again?
I actually thought Stewart looked pretty good at times last year, although I don’t think he has the ideal explosiveness to be an multi-year starter.
January 23rd, 2013 at 7:04 pm
Nuggets starting to play better, lots of good pieces. Lakers sux………
January 23rd, 2013 at 7:04 pm
Lakers are going to lose by 20.
No effort
January 23rd, 2013 at 7:06 pm
Last year we were all talking about how you don’t need a running game to advance in the postseason.
This year 2 good running teams are playing for the SB. Football is so unpredictable…
January 23rd, 2013 at 7:09 pm
Stewart is decent but he wasn’t flashing and he’s a bit undersized – the Raiders need a big body like a Mike Bush type, there are alot of options in FA to bring in somebody who can be that guy. Blount, Hillis come to mind, or a young guy in the draft. After watching the Senior Bowl news, there’s more depth at that position than originally thought. Maybe a late rounder is the solution. Blount and Hillis would come awfully cheap and we know they can produce. With the change to the blocking scheme and DMAC in a contract year – should have a big year.
January 23rd, 2013 at 7:09 pm
I hope Sparano does well. He’s obviously got a solid resume. It is worth noting that the Jets’ offensive line underperformed and was considered a disappointment this year.

January 23rd, 2013 at 7:11 pm
Running game is still king – the reason the QB’s can do what they do at all 3 teams Wash, Seattle, and Whiners – starts with (and ends with) ability to run the ball.
January 23rd, 2013 at 7:11 pm
Pass on Blount.
That guy got 2nd, 3rd and 4th chances and blew them all.
January 23rd, 2013 at 7:14 pm
Mcfadden20. Says:
January 23rd, 2013 at 2:07 pm
IDK why SParano hire is getting a backlash, The guy was a head coach (well wasn’t a successful one) OC (wasn’t successful either) BUt He’s one of the best OL coach in football, all the other experience including head coaching wouldn’t hurt when he will only have to coach 8-9 guys
——–
For once I agree with troll mcfadden20. This organization doesn’t attract top tier coaches so getting sparano is a bold move. Might inspire DA to keep an eye on his back and do a better job. I am OAKGLEN and I have said my peice. Good night and don’t let the bed bugs bite.

Blount could be a good, cheap pickup. He’s got some fumble issues and I’ve heard he may be a liability in pass pro, but the dude can run the rock.

Why was Mike Brown fired again?

Jets are a mess. The Tebow thing, Sanchez turnovers and the Jets falloff overall was the difference. Sporano turned the Dolphins around and got them into the playoffs in ‘08 – should have gotten coach of the year that year. He was in a no-win situation in NY and a can’t-lose situation here – I expect good things.
January 23rd, 2013 at 7:16 pm
CDERaider absolutely right all those teams success starts with there running games and makes there QB look very good thats why we need to be able to run the ball hell people wonder why soup had a winning record here it was cuz we could run the rock

January 23rd, 2013 at 7:17 pm
too much 1 on 1 play by lakers, no pressure D
January 23rd, 2013 at 7:18 pm
I think Blount is a perfect complement to DMAC – he can get the tough yards and can play #1 when needed. We need 1 good year from him and he’s available cheap – I think its a no brainer with him having history with Olson.
January 23rd, 2013 at 7:18 pm
give palmer a run game and u will see a world of a difference also a WR wouldn’t hurt either
January 23rd, 2013 at 7:20 pm
What about Brandon Jacobs or Hillis? Problem is we have very little draft room to take a RB this year.
January 23rd, 2013 at 7:20 pm
i like blount but he can’t pass block to save his life pretty damn good runner tho
January 23rd, 2013 at 7:21 pm
Blount shows up to every training camp overweight, has no interest in blocking, fumbles all the time, already has knee issues, and is a colossal jerk.
Probably will eat himself out of the league in a year or two.

I guess we could maybe get Blount on a one year deal where he goes all out to get that big contract.
But he had a good year 2 years ago, and did everything possible to ruin all the good momentum from that.
I am not into throwing life preserves these days.

I know I’m late but Wow!
Tony Sparano for O-Line Coach. Take that to the guys who said DA was sleep at the wheel and Reggie had a hankie around his neck at IHOP.
This helps two things: Power O-Line blocking scheme and now we should definetly win AT Miami. Sparano teaches toughness.
January 23rd, 2013 at 7:29 pm
Switched on the last few minutes of this Hornets-Spurs game and get the soothing sound of Joel Meyers.
Guess he is the Hornets play-by-play guy now.

Callahan is a POS. Regardless if the sabotage thing, we should have destroyed the Bucs in that game and that’s his fault. 11 carries the whole game, really?

Al did.

I agree. Don’t know why there’s even a debate about it. Callhan wouldn’t have been allowed on the flight home if it was his doing.

To me OL coach is probably the most important position coach on a team, even more than QB coach. O-line coaches are responsible for blocking schemes and orchestrating the coordinated attack of 5+guys on the field at any given time.
January 23rd, 2013 at 7:43 pm
What about chemistry? In the past it was AD hiring and firing and dictating to his HC of the month who their asst coaching was going to be. Now, all of these hires look to me like a GM and HC and an owner working together to build it the right way AND to bring the Raiders into the 21st century (finally). AD did not believe in chemistry. With all due respect to AL, it’s not always about the biggest or the fastest! Roman wasn’t built in a day! Much less rebuild in a season. Some people need to relax and let the cyclical nature of things take its course. Don’t get me wrong, I too am po’d about the last 10 years, but I understand what is transpiring here and now. ef the haters. Our time will come and that alone gives me solace. Because when it does, it’s going to be that much better and we’ll have our run again!
Ps. you are NOT a true Raider fan if you are pulling for the whiners, period.

walter football has Aj mccaron 14th ranked qb next year
A.J. McCarron, QB, Alabama
Height: 6-4. Weight: 210.
Projected 40 Time: 4.79.
Projected Round (2014): 6-FA.
9/4/12: McCarron is a carbon copy of other Alabama quarterbacks who are game managers, but real passing threats. Like John Parker Wilson or Greg McElroy, McCarron is not a standout passer, but he is intelligent and doesn’t lose the game for his team.
McCarron had the luxury of a tremendous running game and defense to carry Alabama to a National Championship in 2011. He completed 67 percent of his passes for 2,634 yards with 16 touchdowns and five interceptions. Perhaps Alabama will let McCarron throw the ball more as a junior and senior.

Can’t stand the ravens for what they did to Gannon and dislike the niners cuz they are the niners. Hoping for a lousy performance from both teams. Don’t care who loses. Won’t even watch it. If it ain’t the Raiders, I ain’t watchin it. Long suffering fans can understand. I like the new moves RegMac is making and Allen and co. being in Mobile will only help them gel as coaches. Not enamoured with this staff, but certainly not disappointed.

Purdue DT/NT Kwann Short’s stock rising. I had a feeling this would happen with him. Would have been a solid pick for Raiders in Round 3, but he will long gone by then.
Raiders need to try and trade down and get D Jordan or Warmack. Hope to get a 2nd Rounder in tbhis years draft or at least next years 2nd rounder from a team.
January 23rd, 2013 at 7:58 pm
Johnny Football is a straight jokester who like to have fun. He reminds me of Jim McMahon in that regard. He’s in casinos, strip clubs, bars, you name it.

How far do we think we could trade down and still get Warmack?
I think he goes in the top 6.
January 23rd, 2013 at 8:01 pm
I dont know about you guys but I thought Tony did a good job in MIA I thought he got a raw deal, his teams always playe hard they just lacked talent on the offensive side of the ball. Im glad to have him here someone else who can give DA a few pointers.
January 23rd, 2013 at 8:02 pm
Please say no to Dion Jordan. I rewatched the Bowl game just to see specifically what he can do. And he was a ghost. First it was hard to see his name on those awful uniforms but then the announcers neve really called his name much. There was a Safety on that squad who impressed me the most.
Dion Jordan will be the second coming of that Ohio State draft bust that was picked by Jets after DMAC. Gholston was his name.

Choke on THIS Miss-fit:
The QB class of 2014 is rife with talent and this so called “wave of the future” barely makes a dent.

2-Tyler Bray Tenn (in this yr’s draft)
3-AJ McCarren Ala.
4-Zach Mettenberger LSU
5-Tajh Boyd-Clemson *
6-Logan Thomas VaTech *
7-David Carr-Fresno St.

January 23rd, 2013 at 8:22 pm
From Bill Simmons’ article on the Lakers and specifically here on D’Antoni (sounds about our issues with Knapp last year):
There are two types of coaches …
1. A coach who looks at his players and says, “How can I put these guys in the best position for them to succeed?”
2. A coach who looks at his players and says, “How can I use these guys to make my system succeed?”
Now, think about the mind-set driving Coach No. 2: He’s basically saying, I’m here only because of my system. I can’t actually coach. If you give me the wrong players for my system, it doesn’t matter — I will keep using the system anyway, because Plan B would be coming up with a more inventive way to coach these guys. And I can’t do that. I’m not good enough. So if it’s OK with you, I’d like to go down in flames with my system.

The fact that Williams remains unemployed is no surprise. Players will surely resist him, given the perception that he “snitched” on Saints linebacker Jonathan Vilma as part of the internal NFL bounty suspension process, both with a sworn statement and testimony at the appeal hearing. And it will be hard for any owner to justify adding Williams to the payroll, given both his role in the bounty scandal and his cartoonish locker-room comments from last January, as the Saints prepared to face the 49ers in the postseason.
—————————————————————————–
I guess Williams is not an option.

You just said if Hue were white he would be a HC. That is the stupidest flipping thing I ever read.
He was a HC, didn’t improve his team, set an NFL record for penalties, and was fired by a black guy.

JaMarcus weighs 308 which is down from 320. I’m sure he’s starving so I say we let him eat and get back to 320 and bring him in after we cut Seymour. Bring back Tom Cable to teach him pad level.

Larry the cable guy could be Russell’s personnel trainer and we could use him like the Bears used ‘the fridge’. Nothin wrong with that. Maybe Allen could finally score from the one.

On one hand I can’t help but think how stupid it was of Russell to announce his weight at 308 lbs. as if it would somehow be an indication that he was really getting ready for a big comeback.
The NFLN gal was blatantly just laughing at him and said “does he plan on coming back as a guard?”. Then I think the guy must have alot of confidence in himself to even try to make a comeback at this point.
If 308 merits a triumphant announcement from him how much did he weigh prior to this? 400?
I was watching some highlights of some throws he made and at 6′6 and that big (not bloated) body and firing 30 yd’s on a rope? That looked good.

To be fair , more than half came of his ints in 11 came in his first 2 games, like 6 or 7 ints, kinda understandable when you don’t have much reps with team and not enough of playbook down and calls n stuff, no? n btw i think his performance in week 17 was good enough for a win, with atleast average D, Atlanta’s D in that week 17 with Palmer would have took us to the playoffs

Just draft Warmack at 3 if we have too, he is worth that to us imo.

Hear hear…
Just do it Reggie.
Pro-bowl guard between Veldheer and Wiz makes them ALL pro-bowlers!
^^^^^^^^^^
If McK can trade down about 5 spots gain an extra 3rd rounder this year and 5th and maybe a 2nd rounder in next years draft, I think Warmack will still be there.

I KNOW.. it’s tempting. But what if someone else snatches him?
If I own a business and I have a chance to hire a grand slam salesman now, or wait and hope I get him later for cheaper… I hire him NOW and don’t look back.
Nobody runs a business hoping someone else doesn’t steal the guy you want.
You just hire him NOW.

I asked earlier and got no answers.
How far back could we feasably trade down to and still get Warmack?
I don’t think it is as far as people think. 1-3 spots is about it, as far as I can see.

And that’s all it would take to get back into the 2nd round.
January 23rd, 2013 at 9:47 pm
2005 wasn’t the last good team he played for.
2009 Bengals made the playoffs. As did the 2011 and 2012 Bengals.
2010??? 4-12 with Carson.

Carson played well the last couple of games of 2011, but he had a wide open Chaz in the Lions game to seal a playoff spot.
Overthrew him.
And was a no-show in Miami and Green Bay.
Sorry, can’t overlook that. That was his moment in Silver and Black and came up short.
2013…we will see. He probably will get benched for TP by around the bye week.

SF Giants – Ballin, WS champs
SF NINERS- SB bound
Oakland A’s – Go against odds, picked to finish last place, lowest pay roll.. yet the WIN AL WEST, Make playoffs and win 94 games.. and take their fans for a heckof a ride

Good point on this garbage yards thing.
You can’t dismiss Palmer’s 4k and td’s as “garbage” and the next breath talk up Pryors 3 td’s after being down 24-7 as more legit.
I’ll go ahead and say they are both legit.

I have a huge feeling that RM is gonna trade down to a 5-10 and get us a 2nd and fifth rder. We have all heard that RM loves his draft picks and not spending money on big names so it seems that we are relagated to the draft and small time FA’s and more than likely more practice squad players off of GB. I’m not expecting big moves this offseason, just more of the same small stuff and hope for the best. Hopefully our offense picks up and we can draft some decent players from the draft, although we never know ow long it’s gonna take to develop these players. As a lifelong Raider fan its been tough to deal with season after season of losing but no matter what we do or say they will continue to do as they please.

Whoa now. Did my long time man Tim Brown retract or what. Wonder if he started to sweat a liable or slander suit. But that’s not the point. Raiders played like they were constipated that evening.

You’re missing the most exciting sport in the bay area.
The Sharks are now 2-0 and looking like a power house offense. They hit the gorund running without the benefit of a preseason. They bring back a core that is mostly unchanged and that can make a lot of noise in the shortened regular season. The last few seasons they were playing their best hockey right around the 60-70 game mark, which in this season would be the Stanley Cup Finals. This is the year they bring home the Cup!

In full agreement. Nothing worse than a faded pink urinal cake losing its luster and turning a yellowish sheen of urine and chewing tabacco. I always use a urinal as a spittoon every time.

Walk into a crapper sometime and tell me you don’t appreciate a urinal cake. Especially at any stadium where the piss troughs can’t accommodate all the urinating and most of it lands on the floor. At least the cakes mask the aroma.
And to further promote blue cakes, try pissin on one and watch the piss turn green.

Do you remember when Alyssa Milano used to go to the Kings games? I saw her at the Forum a couple times back when she was smokin’ hot.
January 23rd, 2013 at 11:53 pm
BTW — The Kings looked way cooler when they adopted the Raiders Silver and Black. Now that they are back to their Barney The Dinosaur purple, they’re harder to take seriously. Well, except for that big silver cup they’re carrying around these days.

===========================================
Went to the Kings game when Gretzky set the record for I don’t know what. Not a hockey fan but my friend was and I know Gretzky set a lot of records but it was a big one. 15-20 minute break in action, presentation, fanfare, etc. 800 some odd goals sounds familiar, maybe.

EK: Tim, you said the facts are what they are, less than 36 hours before the game we changed our game plan and we go in to that game absolutely knowing we have no shot. Are you saying that Bill Callahan changed the game plan to give your team less of a chance to beat the Buccaneers?
EK: You understand there’s obviously a difference between making a poor coaching decision, even a colossally poor coaching decision, and throwing the game. Is this a colossally poor coach decision or are you saying that he was trying not to win the game?
EK: When was the first time it crossed your mind that this may not just be a bad coaching decision and this may enter the area of intentional sabotage?
EK: So Tim, at the end of the day, you have $10 million tax free if you were right. And I realize you’re guessing. Is your best guess that Bill Callahan was incompetent, or that Bill Callahan was trying not to win the game?
Bingo! finally got him with the last question.

Reggie is not going to trade for Revis. Too much money tied up in one player right now for the Raiders.
Maybe he brings someone like that in down the road, but RM still has financial housecleaning to do.
January 24th, 2013 at 5:34 am
Revis also is damaged goods now. Not saying he wont return to his former elite status, but look at Philly and what they thought they were getting in Nnamdi.
January 24th, 2013 at 5:35 am
Revis is only due $6 million I think next year, from what the article says.
That is a great one year number, so we will have to give up A LOT more than Palmer and Huff to get that done.

Lost Heroes of the Super Bowl – Rod Martin
Rod Martin knew a one-week trip to New Orleans could lead to plenty of entertaining nights when the Oakland Raiders traveled to Super Bowl XV. He also realized that all the carousing and craziness wouldn’t alter his focus prior to his team’s meeting with the Philadelphia Eagles in the final game of that 1980 season. Like most of his teammates, Martin returned from Bourbon Street in time to study extra film before going to bed. What he discovered in those early-morning hours led to the biggest game of the outside linebacker’s career.
Of the many memorable moments in that 27-10 Raiders victory, Martin provided three of them. The first came when he intercepted Eagles quarterback Ron Jaworski on the game’s third play from scrimmage, setting up Oakland’s first touchdown. The second came when he picked off Jaworski again, this time early in the third quarter. By the time Martin added his third interception late in the final period, his legacy had been set. No other player has ever intercepted that many passes in a Super Bowl before or since.
Rod Martin proudly tells the world how many interceptions he recorded in Super Bowl XV.
Focus on Sport/Getty ImagesMartin didn’t leave New Orleans with Most Valuable Player honors – that distinction went to quarterback Jim Plunkett – but Martin remains proud of that record and that victory. “I had so many emotions going on that it really didn’t bother me,” Martin said of not winning the award. “I was having too much fun [after the game]. Besides, I was on ‘The Today Show’ with Bryant Gumbel the next morning, so it wasn’t like I wasn’t getting some attention.”
Attention actually had been hard for Martin to come by before Super Bowl XV. As a 12th-round pick in the 1977 draft, he had to fight his way into the NFL from the day he arrived. The only reason the Raiders gave him a shot was because head coach John Madden had asked USC head coach John Robinson – a former Raiders assistant – to recommend a player worthy of a late pick. When Robinson called back, he told Madden to think long and hard about a certain 200-pound linebacker who thrived off smarts, quickness and resilience.
Martin was mentally tough enough to not sulk when the Raiders traded him to San Francisco after the fourth preseason game of his rookie season. He also didn’t despair when the 49ers cut him two weeks after he showed up there. Even after spending most of that year training in Los Angeles, Martin believed his time would come. When the Raiders called him back in December and asked him to play special teams, he sensed that his prayers had been answered.
That season ended with Oakland losing to Denver in the AFC Championship Game, but the Raiders had seen plenty from Martin during his brief stay. “I remember looking for a place in L.A. with my girlfriend, and Oakland called [to say they were keeping me on the roster],” Martin said. “I was just determined to make it. I knew I could prove everybody wrong about me.”
Under the eye of Al Davis, Martin went from 12th-round pick to Super Bowl linchpin.
MPS/USA TODAY SportsMartin found his niche the same way he built his career – with small, meaningful steps. He bulked up to 205 pounds before his second year and filled in at inside linebacker for eight games. By his third year, Martin was playing right outside linebacker (his natural position) in the Raiders’ 3-4 defense and roaming the field at 215 pounds. Oakland owner/general manager Al Davis actually thought so highly of Martin that he moved veteran star Phil Villapiano from outside to inside linebacker to make room for the younger player.
As much as Martin was growing as a player, he believes the Eagles still saw him as a liability in Super Bowl XV. “Just look at our defense back then,” Martin said. “On the right side, you had Dave Browning at end, Dwayne O’Steen at cornerback and me. On the left side, you had John Matuszak, Ted Hendricks and Lester Hayes. We knew they would be attacking the right side of our defense.”
Martin’s career actually took off after the Super Bowl. He went to two Pro Bowls (1983 and ‘84) and was named All-Pro in 1984. Martin also helped the Raiders win Super Bowl XVIII three years later before finishing his career after the 1988 season. During 12 NFL seasons, he amassed 14 interceptions and 10 fumble recoveries.
These days, Martin serves as a technical support manager at his alma mater, USC.
Dominic DiSaia for ESPNSince Martin played and lived in Southern California most of his life, he capitalized on his local connections when his playing days ended. He made appearances as an extra in commercials for McDonald’s and John Madden’s video game. He had a bit part in an episode of “Married with Children” and opened a barbecue restaurant in Manhattan Beach, Calif. In the late 1990s, Martin was buying a computer for his two daughters when he decided to learn more about information technology.
That little bit of curiosity eventually led Martin, now 58, to seek out more training, which in turn led to him landing an interview for a computer analysis position at USC. These days he manages a department at the school that handles user-support needs of university employees. Surprisingly, Martin’s bosses didn’t know he played football until former Trojans great Charles White – who also worked in the department – told them about his success. Martin said he didn’t take offense because it had been a long time since his playing days.
Once the word did get out, Martin knew what was coming next. Everybody wanted to hear about Super Bowl XV. It was one more indication that losing out on MVP honors still wasn’t such a big deal. People who follow NFL history know what that game means for his reputation.
As Martin said, “How many people can say they had three interceptions in a Super Bowl? It hadn’t been done before and nobody has done it since. It’s like I always say – a lot of people may not know all the MVPs who have played in the Super Bowl. But they know I had three interceptions when I played in that game.”

Revis held out on his last contract with 3 years left!
What do you think he’ll do on the next go round of negotiations. Really hard to trust him even with a signed contract.

January 24th, 2013 at 5:53 am

Charles White and Rod Martin worked in IT together at USC??
Man, that would be a cool IT staff!!!
January 24th, 2013 at 5:58 am
DIRT-LOT, I agree about #53 being the MVP. Back in those days only QB’s were allowed MVP status, sometimes a running back or wide reciever could get one if the performance was record breaking. Typically they just gave it to the winning QB regardless of if he deserved it or not. Plunkett had a nice game, but he wasn’t the MVP, Rod Martin was the MAN on that day and had Jaws talking to himself. But they just didn’t give MVP to defensive guys till in later SB’s. Shame.
January 24th, 2013 at 5:59 am
Didn’t some guy win the Super Bowl MVP, as a defensive player of a losing team a few years before that?
January 24th, 2013 at 6:01 am

What do you know? I was sure that Roger Staubach won those MVPS in those Super Bowls. I was mistaken. It looks like 2 defensive guys won back to back MVP’s, Harvey Martin and Randy White. That would make a good trivia question. I never would have guessed. Roger only had one SB MVP out of 4 games.

January 24th, 2013 at 7:00 am
Man I’m happy we got Tony Sparano on staff.
The guy entered the League under Tom Coughlin and then Bill Parcells snatched him up with Dallas so you know he’s a quality Coach and like Coughlin and Parcells, Sparano is definitely the fiery, in-your-face, old-school kind, just what we need for the OL.
The fact that he was made Assistant HC means he’s 2nd in command to DA and probably a buffer between Allen and the players, that was also a good move, I’ve read his players respect him and troubled guys like Brandon Marshall and Richie Incognito finally settled down under his watch and love the guy.
- “Ten years earlier, Tom Coughlin felt the same way about Sparano during an interview when he was looking for a tight ends coach for the Jaguars.
“We had an opportunity to see the depth of the detail that he had,” Coughlin says. “I can remember the exact play we had him demonstrate to us. He did a great job of that. I knew the type of coach that he was.”
When the Jaguars fired their coaching staff a year later, new Cowboys head coach Bill Parcells leaned on Coughlin’s recommendation to bring Sparano aboard.
“Tom Coughlin told me that he was one of the two best assistant coaches that he’d ever had,” says Parcells, who later hired Sparano to be Dolphins head coach in 2008. “I have a high regard for Tom and that was enough for me.”
Tannenbaum, whose football philosophies were shaped by Parcells, consulted his mentor, who praised Sparano.”

I thought it was funny that Garcia is helping Jamarcus now but when they were teammates Garcia wanted no part of being a mentor in Oakland because Jamarcus was going to be the unquestioned starter.
Point is he wouldn’t mentor Jamarcus when it mattered, but now that they are both nobodies he is willing to help? I thought Jeff not helping Jamarcus was selfish at the time when he probaly could have been of some help. Kind of like TP6 picking cp3’s brain.

Then Greg Olson can put it all together and with help from Sparano-Saunders develop and call a balanced offensive game-plan that puts the players in the best position to succeed according to their skills.

But I feel 100% better to have Sparano in there executing the conversion to the power blocking system as well as looking forward to the stretch-vertical playcalling I hope is installed. If Olson can adapt and grow under Saunders and Sparano, the offense is ready to open up and bo back to the Raider identity on offense.
January 24th, 2013 at 7:20 am
I thought Garcia knew he was gonna be a back up and was ok with it, but Russell wanted no part of it. I mean even Mr Garcia and his wife said that Jeff wanted to be here and knew that he will only be back up! That one pre-season game at home the Garcia family tailgated in front of us! Man, Jeff’s wife is hot in person too! LOL

So Asst HC would pretty much put Sporano in charge of the offense.
DA always said he would let that side of the ball be.
VERY interesting.

Olsen had that one big yr in STL. at least is not gregry krapp..olsen always seems to get something out of his stars. Im happier about this staff overall
January 24th, 2013 at 7:30 am
Show some love to DA
January 24th, 2013 at 7:30 am
I like the recent hirings. Well, except the OC hiring feels like a repeat of last year; just hoping for the best. btw – if anyone has any light to shed on what Al Saunders ever did wrong, please let me know. But Sporano and April….looks good!
I like Reggie and DA, hoping they succeed. But sometimes, after reading all the comments made by people when they talk about DA (”he has that “it” factor, I was mezmorized within 25 seconds of meeting him, I’ll come work for free because he’s the future of football coaching”) – I’m being sarcastic, but my point is….
Sometimes I worry/wonder if DA is simply an INTERVIEW ASSASIN. Like, we all know the person (friend or co worker), we like them, but know they’re kinda uselss, but yet, they’re always getting promoted or get a great job?! And nobody can ever figure out why? And the only plausible explanation is that they NAIL the interview?! That’s what DA reminds me of.
I really hope this year is a total 180. All of last year, I just didn’t see what lots of people were claiming about him. I remember clear as day, Chucky’s first year. He had a presence, a command of the team, his press conferences were great, no regurgitating lame cliches, and even though his first two seasons were 8-8, you could “feel” the difference in the team. I just don’t see that with DA. Hopefully he just needed a year to get grounded and we’re off and running now!
Very excited about this year’s Draft. Go! Reggie Go!

that’s all I’m looking for Guest. I dunno if it’s having too “LOW” of expectations but, we GOTTA have an idendtity before all else. The idendtity brings the unit together; the single vision of the team and all the men on the same page “TOGETHER”…..Anything else is “I just run around and hit somebody, I dunno what we’re doing” Fingers point, eyes roll, balls get dropped, etc etc…… Identity brings the “PRIDE”, the “SWAGGER” that you mentioned. “This is who we ARE” with chest pounding, “MY HOUSE”……That has been missing for SO long. I want to see an identity first and foremost.

We need that Raider mystique back in the building. It feeds the fans and the fans feed the energy back to the field. But when we see finger pointing, eye rolling, shouting matches in the huddle, it paints a picture that we don’t know what we are doing or how to orchestrate the plan. I point the fault at DA for a lot of that. I’m still very sore with DA and in my book he’s on very short notice. The new coaching hires give me hope though that the culture can change for the better. I’m sure there are still a few more paycheck cashers we need to weed out. But let’s see where the draft and free agency take us. Maybe in the end DA will restore the confidence. I hated his choices for coaches last year from jumpstreet. That was no kind of battle plan. I dunno what that was. Just halfa## half hearted and halfway all around. I’m looking for a season of ALL OUT this next year. YEAH!!

LOL, Baltimore will probably shape McClain up! Ray will not be there but Suggs, #59 (I can never say his name right) and Ngata will pile drive him! But then again, they would probably laugh at the idea as well!
January 24th, 2013 at 7:44 am
Isn’t Jake Long that the guy with a series of injuries? Seems like he’s always out injured. I don’t think any team should attempt to build around him now, he’s damaged goods.

Long at RT wouldn’t be much of an upgrade over Barnes. Probably so in the pass protection area, not much if at all in the run game, and he is injured and penalty-prone just as much as Khalif.
January 24th, 2013 at 7:51 am
Well Sporano was Long’s HC, not OLine coach. And while that might give us some edge if we’re matching offers, he’s definetely not going to take any discounts to come here.

I don’t think we’d get anything of substance for RoMac?
We can’t be afraid that he’ll get it together somewhere else either. I think almost out of principal alone, the Raiders need to make an example of him and bust him off. If this organization is sincere about turning the corner kinda thing, #55 cannot be allowed to reclaim his sacred jersey at Training Camp.
It’s like a bad debt/cost of doing business. “Go away Rolando….just go away…..like you’r predecessor JaMarcus; you failed us, we failed you … let’s just go our separate ways.”
If anything, guys like Rolando and JaMarcus and several of the other failed #1 picks need to be analysed and studied and figured out why they were such disasters. Was it them? Organizational Structure? c) all of the above?

Good morning Raider brethren!!
I dont know how much you guys are following the Senior Bowl coverage but here is something interesting Ive heard coming from Mobile:
The QB from Syracuse Ryan Nassib is really improving his draft stock at the Senior Bowl practices this week. Buffalo hired Nassib’s HC from Syracuse and Nassib already expressed that he would love to go to Buffalo and play for his old coach. Assuming Andy Reid (KC) doesnt grab him at #1, Buffalo could be a possible trade partner looking to move to #3 allowing us to move back to #8 and pick up their second rounder #41…
In that scenario, I would love for us to take the best DE left at #8 then pick up a CB at #41…

I didn’t say the “interview assasin” comment, but I agree with it. Some guys can talk a real good game to management. Ace the interview like it was a big oral exam. Memorize all the right stuff and look like the real deal. But they get the job and the job eats them alive. I think DA is one of those types. I’m hoping that if Reggie lights a fire under him he’ll throw out the rote answers he did during his interview and say like you said, “eff it, go down swinging. Gonna lose my job anyway”. I wanna see that fire and passion. Sometimes I thought Hue was over the top and overemotional for his position. But I look at Dennis Allen and his eyes tell look like a deer-in-the-headlights look. Man, we can’t have that from our leader. We need some cajones at HC. Tony Montana said that all he had was his word and his balls. Balls is what leads men. Dennis Allen needs to grow a a pair.

That’s a little tough on any QB when your top 3 WR’s rank in the bottom half of the stat analysis as far as drops, yac, etc. and you have no running game AND even your last resort “dump the ball off guy” isn’t holding on to it.
Better fix that for whoever our QB is gonna be.

I want someone to really re-watch all the games this year (or find a way to just watch the INT’s) I am curious to know exactly how many of Palmer’s INT’s were tipped by our own guys first. I say 7. I think of CPs 14 INTs only 3 or 4 of them were actually bad throws, the rest were tipped or due to WR’s wrong routes.
January 24th, 2013 at 8:15 am
There was no problems out of DMC, DHB, Moore, etc… when the play calling was better. So i have to believe they’ll be fine if Olsen can put them in good position. Of course we could always up grade them but they’re not a priority.
The massive holes on both lines and the defense overall is priority

If Reggie is committed to McFadden, then so will I. He’s so fragile though, gets paid way more money than he actually produces. Look at what Reece gets paid compared to Mcfragile and look at what Goodson gets paid and I think we could use the money better elsewhere. When he’s available, McFadden can be a beast RB. But he’s like the Lamborghini that’s always in the shop getting something fixed, leaking oil in a drip pan. If we can find a trade partner for him, pick up a draft pick I’d be happy to see DMC off.

Only three really stand out to me, Horrible underhanded stupidity vs Jax, and the two game sealers against TB and ATL. I’ve heard the TB one argued that it was Moore’s fault and while it might be true, it was a weak arm throw into coverage. ATL was just horrible play calling, can only throw so many out routes against a zone corner like Samuels.

As many are saying relying too much on minute stats that are built on games against the Jags w/o Jones Drew, or two games against the Chefs etc. etc. are BS.
WE ARE 9-51 AGAINST PLAYOFF TEAMS for the last ten years losing by an average score of 30-13.
That is the only real stat that matters.
You do not have that level of futility with seven different coaching staffs over a decade without coming to the simple conclusion that we do not have the on field talent to compete against good teams.
Watching the games shows the issues which are glaring on both lines. We desperately need good YOUNG talent on both lines.

Makes you wonder if DMC’s hands are actually as good as we all believed. He never had a dropsie problem until this year, when they actually targeted him for receptions
===========================================
His hands seemed fine, I think his head was not screwed on tight enough. There was something wrong with that player all year. His running was horrible and he was even worse in the passing game. If that was even possible.
>>>>
He was clearly frustrated especially after coming back from the ankle injury… he dropped a couple of perfectly set up screens that prolly would have been 80 yarders… after he dropped he’s like looking around shaking his head.
Poor guy… he’s had great hands his whole career even in college. Now we are supposed to believe he can’t catch a cold? BS… Knapp had him wound tighter than a two dollar watch.
He will be fine next year with an offense created around HIM… instead of an offense created around an abject idiot.. Knapp.
Has Knapp been hired by anyone else?

I’m not a Palmer “worshipper” but I try to be fair in my analysis of him. My main thing is whatever’s gonna help us win more games.
Was it that Cleve game where it was a wide open TD to Myers and it doinked off his chest into the waiting arms of the defender for an int? How do you fault Palmer for that?
The int. he threw in that game along the sideline was a legit bad throw from him no doubt, but there was absolutely no fight for the ball from our guy either…can’t recall whether that was DHB or Moore on that one.

Well that and people like Clady! Plus he runs the offense that CP should run… call the play at the LOS to best get the ball out quickly. Plus Denver ran an offense around PM… do you think he would have came to Denver without bringing the playbook he needs to succeed?

Strong lines make everyone esle on the field better by default. I agree we have other holes but I believe the QUICKEST road to respectability is improving line play.
I have said many times;
Olines create time and space.
Dlines destroy time and space.
I agree that Veld, Wiz and Houston are strong. Completely agree.
That is only three of nine line positions.
My concern with the others is Age/Injury, productivity and salary with our remaining group.
Below is my opinion:
BARNES Free agent cast off from Jacksonville. 30 years old and becoming very injury prone. The Denver game is all you should need to see that he can NOT compete at the NFL level. Requires major max protect against good dlines which limits our offensive options.
CARLISLE 35 years old. Probably retiring after this year. Can Bergstrom backfill?
BRISIEL Free agent 29 years old Average performance at best this year. Perhaps he can rebound after ankle injury and offseason surgery.
SHAUGNESSY Complete non factor as a pass rusher. Ineffective on rush defense as well. Continues to lose playing time to Carter who is 34.
KELLY 32 years old. Undrafted free agent signed most lucrative deal for a DT in NFL history. Easily neutralized by good Olines. Only applies rush pressure against weak fronts. Has been part of Dlines that are routinely shredded by good running backs at an embarrassingly high statistical level. The Tampa game should tell you how quickly he can disappear.
SEYMOUR 33 years old Body is shot. Cannot practice let alone play. Will not be in NFL next year. Disastrous.
I think Bilkidi and Bryant are solid back ups relative to what other NFL teams have starting.

If we’re in the games, looking somewhat polished with an identity developing, and lose by 3 or a TD in the 4th qtr like 27 – 30…..Prolly not.

Do any of you recall Knapp calling pass plays for McFadden week one where McFadden was being left hanging out to dry and getting blown up by the defenders the second he caught the ball?
McFadden can be used in the passing game….he didn’t have this problem in the past….the problem was the situations Knapp placed him in.
He, along with many of the other offensive players had no faith in Knapp.
When players are disheartened because they know their coach is a total joke, their performance drops.

Defense is going to continue their good play from the last part of the season. With McClain and Seymour OUT and a stud draft pick IN…maybe a couple of good fa’s to add to the mix? Top 10 D.
The offense will explode on the scene with Sparano coaching up the line and Olson getting back to vertical and power scheme?

+++++++++++++++++
I remember watching Kerry Wood pitch his 20 strikeout game and thinking we would finally be a contender!
Nope:
“The Astros had no chance.
They managed one infield single and Wood hit a batter, so it wasn’t a perfect game or even a no-hitter. But by the Bill James Game Score method, it was the best game ever pitched. Game Score rewards pitchers for strikeouts, and subtracts points for runs, hits and walks. There have been just nine starts of nine innings in which a pitcher scored 100 or better. Ryan (twice), Johnson, Curt Schilling, Warren Spahn and Brandon Morrow scored 100; Ryan (with a 16-strikeout, two-walk no-hitter) and Sandy Koufax (his 14-strikeout perfect game) scored 101.
Kerry Wood’s game? 105. Nine innings, one hit, no walks, 20 K’s. Untouchable.”
And then we got Mark Prior….phenomenon….perfect mechanics….we are saved!
Nope.
And then we had Corey Patterson….best 5 tool prospect since Ricky Henderson! We are saved!
Nope.
Then we got Lou! He will take us to the promised land!
Nope.

I have a real philosophical problem with the zone blocking scheme. JLofty wants his football team to impose its will. Even the wco chucky had a decade ago took what they wanted cuz you couldn’t defend everything. And Gannon knew how to adjust to the most advantageous play.

There needs to be a “best”in a player for a coach to work with.
9-51 over the past ten years against playoff teams with seven different staffs tells us that the talent we have been putting on the filed can not compete.
Especially on the lines.
Barnes, Harris, Slaughter, Green, Jospeph, Pears, Walker (part II), Sapp, Henderson, Newberry, Sands, Burgess (injured every other game), Warren, Kelly, Seymour (injured every other game), Gundheim etc. etc. is a pretty pathetic group of castoffs/retreads who were way past their prime assuming they even had one.

i cant believe people are still making excuses for palmer?!?!?
He carries the same warts he has for his entire career.
‘its knapps fault” yet he was better in knapps offense early in the year than he was at any other point as raider. protecting the ball.
‘its the o line” yet he wasnt at the top of board on qb sacks, and some of the pressures were a result of carson trying to audible and failing to adjust the line for blitzes
“its the wrs” even though those guys played well last year with his predecessor, and played well in the final game with pryor
How about just admiting the guy turned it over 19 times in 14 games and that is a major factor in the measly win total. This is the same pattern we saw when he arrived last year, and the same pattern cincy fans were seeing when he donned the bungle stripes.
Come on fellas, he tried he failed the end

I hear Greg Jennings at his age and injury history can be had for less than a lot of people think. He should be getting around a 3 year/18 to 21 million dollar contract. At that price, I could see Reggie making a play for a former Packer and it would be a huge upgrade at a position of need. If we can get the cap situation squared away.

Would you prefer Aaron Brooks or perhaps Andrew Walter?
How about JR or Charlie Frye?
Perhaps Grad assuming he can play more than 4 games a year?
The fact is QB is the least of our problems.
Building our lines over the next two years gets us to respectability more quickly than any other strategy and allows Pryor to develop.
Out of necessity Pryor may have to start if Palmer gets hammered again. Problem is, Pryor could be one snap away from the ER then what?
There is no QB savior in the weeds out there given the seriousness of our other problems.

The scuttlebutt around the league (I now love to use that word scutttlebutt) is that Greg Jennings has a lot of haters who think he’s only good because of Aaron Rodgers. That perception, age, injuries could make him a key free agent signing for somebody. I hope it would be for the Raiders.

@Guest123
I’m hoping that Reggie can land Jennings and somehow get DHB to renegotiate his contract. Acquiring him would help the receiving corps immensely, which should in turn help the run game as well. Also, Jennings has a modest public image with a national audience, so it could help our brand as well.
I’m worried about his injury history, but that risk is part of what makes Jennings a realistic target.

For the draft, I hope we push hard for a stud lineman, either side of the line, doesn’t matter. And then fill in depth in later draft slots.
For free agency, I’m hoping we can land a decent center, a playmaking true #1 wideout, and some corners.
The stud wideout is needed badly. Carson Palmer doesn’t have his security blanket and no Brandon Myers is not it. He needs a Roddy White type player he can count on to hit the sticks on third down. Tired of trying to draft one of those guys. We need to sign/acquire/trade for one.

I agree with you but I don’t know if DHB will take that big of a pay cut. He’s due to receive $7.7 mil and really I’d be happy to give him $1.5 mil. Seriously that’s all he’s worth. Take the pay cut or walk. Nothing personal, love DHB’s energy and motor. But he’s way overpaid and that needs some attention by Reggie.

I still believe Moore can be our #1 WR.
*******
I don’t. He plays big when he wants to and not when he doesn’t. He’d make a very good WR2 opposite a true stud WR. DHB will never be that WR1 we drafted him to be.
———
Well this was only his 2nd year. We’ll see this year if it was just a sophmore slump, or he was knapp’d, or if he’s peaked?
But it’s pretty unfair to expect him to be a polished route runner in his 2nd year. He was good his rookie year because he was allowed to run fairly simple downfield routes.

#684, Gdog.
Why not. Everyone just assumes anything good Raiders do is a fluke…like the D playing better the last quarter of the season. If not top 10, i see no reason we aren’t at least middle of the pack.
We have a high draft pick we can do some things with…a little more money to add to the defense. Hindrances like Seymour and McClain gone, and the offense getting back to the fairly successful scheme and approach we had when we were top 10 in the league.
Reggie will add to the offense. He no doubt sees we need help at receiver so he will get something done there. Jennings? Maybe.
Let everybody say we’re gonna suck. It’ll be that much better when we shock ‘em.

Best security blanket for Palmer is a reliable run game for a balanced attack.
You can have the best WR in the world and struggle (see Detroit-CJ).
I think we go DT or OT depending on who is available at 3.
The Kool Aid I am drinking says Brisiel had a bad year due to injury and Bergstrom can step in for Carlise.
We then draft a stud LT and move Veld to RT sending Barnes to retirement.
Then we need Dmac to stay healthy.
We draft a solid DT in the 3rd round and we use the rest on best available.
The only way we trade down is if we get that teams first and second this year.
Unlikely.

You can have the best WR in the world and struggle (see Detroit-CJ).
*******
They struggle because they lack balance. They keep plugging in lower tier RB’s trying to force the defenses hand. Also, they have absolute crap at WR other than Johnson. That’s being one dimensional. You can’t be one dimensional with the best RB in the world either. Look at Adrian Peterson. He can only take them so far. We need balance. Right now, assuming we build around DMC, we have a major need for a wideout security blanket for Palmer. A vet that knows how to run the full route tree and manufacture first downs consistently. We have no WR or TE’s that are go to guys that move the chains during crunch time. It’s Palmer winging it out on a prayer hoping he doesn’t get picked or the ball dropped.
January 24th, 2013 at 10:39 am

Adams is a diamond in the rough. We need depth there though. Ross is showing signs as well. Spencer can be depth at corner.

Get over the black-white thing and embrace the silver and black, brothers and sisters. A black coach traded for a white qb even though the 3rd string black qb on the bench was able to play, and he was big Al’s last draft pick.
Then, a black gm was hired and fired the black coach who played the white qb, a previous starter and no. 1 draft pick. Some Raider fans believe that the white coach hired by the black gm wouldn’t play the black qb b/c or racism.
Do I understand it??

news flash: u don’t live in africa. why a person would play “dress up” in another country’s (not his own) “traditional” clothes is beyond me. it’s pretend. imagine an african dressing in jeans and a hoodie so he could “rep” this country.

If Adams stays healthy he’s a stud imo.
The way he looks back at the ball instead of just playing the receiver is something we haven’t seen in awhile.
Woodson tried to get em to do that…and they just wouldn’t.
It seems simple enuff, but some guys are just hardwired and their instincts take over in real game action.
Adams “instincts” seem to tell him to try and make a play.

==========================================
Hmmm, Mictic1, i’s difficult to explain the curiosity other than as general curiosity. I’ve just wondered if you wear African dress on any regular basis or maybe at certain times of the year. You regularly speak of African history, at least the history of Africans in America. I guess I wondering if you have incorporated African dress into your and your family’s daily life. I honesty don’t know how to express it.
As far as “traditional” goes, you’re right, of course, I should have been more specific. My frame of reference is the type of attire one might see in photographs of African Americans celebrating Kwanzaa, etc., perhaps while attending some African-oriented festival or event, something like that.

Palmer and D. Moore for Revis. Str8 up. Solves both teams major problems
******************
We couldn’t afford to do that. Palmers cap hit if traded is 11.68 million. You don’t get rid of signing bonus by trading a player, plus we wouldn’t be guaranteed of keeping Revis past next year. No thanks on the 1 year rental.

nobody cares about your excuses
to answer your question llok no further than silver and black
2005 kerry collins threw for 3759 yards 20tds and 12 ints
collins went 4-11 and was canned the next year.
second teams win and lose but individuals are held accountable evrey year at every level in every sport.
Coaches coordinators gms qbs line backers water boys and so on all are vulnerable to being fired when the team looses. the only person in sports that has protection is the owner.
stop your pathetic whining
palmer = kerry collins
beside it looks like the raider brass isnt buying the excuses either

problems numbers liar?
i said a 4k passer. u respond with collins’ 3700.
allen: “palmer is our starting qb next season.”

lol
meltdown if you need to but clealry math isnt your strength
not much difference between 3759 by collins and 4k by palmer

Palmer has a perception issue that will prevent other teams from wanting him.
The perception is he’s alot older than he is and he throws alot of int’s and is overrated. Basically, he came to the Raiders to die.
I don’t hold to those severe opinions, but I think alot of teams fans would not see him as an upgrade at this point and it would be a tuff sell. Even in Arizona.
I am convinced Palmer would have done much better with actual receivers and a running game…and maybe a defense to back him up but the 4-12 is what it is and everybody looks to the QB as the culprit nowadays.

exalting palmer over collins may make you feel better but his 2005 season in oakland was nearly identical to plamers this year

The NFL was skeptical of Palmer since preseason. That’s why nobody gave us a chance.
January 24th, 2013 at 11:24 am
By Marc Sessler
Published: January 24, 2013 at 6:45 AM

The Oakland Raiders struggled to build momentum behind Carson Palmer this season.
The 33-year-old quarterback was statistically productive, but too many of his 4,018 yards came in garbage time for a four-win team that typically played from behind. Raiders general manager Reggie McKenzie said Tuesday that Palmer would battle Terrelle Pryor for the job in 2013, and coach Dennis Allen repeated that message Thursday.
“I think really what we’re looking at there, I think we’re going to have some competition at that position,” Allen told “NFL AM” from the Senior Bowl. “Carson Palmer did an outstanding job for us last year. We feel really good about Carson at the quarterback position moving forward. And obviously, we want to create competition at all levels of our team.
“… I feel good about Carson. Terrelle did some nice things in the final game of the season last year, and so it will be interesting to see how he does moving forward.”
It’s hard to look glowingly at Pryor’s Week 17 start. He threw for only 150 yards but two of his passes went for scores. It wasn’t a disaster, but Pryor remains a project under center. Palmer is sure to stick around due to a weighty contract the Raiders can’t easily escape, but the team isn’t satisfied at quarterback.
Here’s to TeamPalmer Vs TeamPryor!!!
That’s what this blog gonna look like post-draft!!!
January 24th, 2013 at 11:25 am
Damn some of you guys are dense. Raiders have an EXTREMELY slight chance of not having Palmer on the roster in 2013. Guy has a $12mil cap hit EVEN if you trade him. And he is a capable qb given some support and wrs who can NOT suck and some running game. Guy can be deadly in play action.
The guy is going to be the qb barring injury. Pryor will back him up and hopefully play some wr and offense is going be much better.
Defense needs some personnel. ..

January 24th, 2013 at 11:42 am
slob,
4k yards passing is what you hang your case for plamer on. I have demonstrated that several players have done it and many are not that good
however since you insist on this …
elvis grbac in 2000 4169 yards 28 tds 14 ints 7 wins
(far better than palmer this year) next year shown the door
lol slob
do you have anything else?

I am convinced Palmer would have done much better with actual receivers and a running game…and maybe a defense to back him up but the 4-12 is what it is and everybody looks to the QB as the culprit nowadays.
—————————
Maybe, because Palmer doesn’t have the ability to make players around him better.
**********
and yet he managed 4k yards/22 tds in 14 games with dhb and moore as his wr’s. he sure made myers better.

They were checking the Dawg out (practicing my spikes on the beach volleyball court), then shyly asked if they could measure The Lawg and yadda yadda yadda they crammed my nads in their mouth
After I booted them out of the suite I took a quick skateboard down to the pier to score more reefer/weed
Will need it for the huge MILF pool party this afternoon. Rasta Ganja is set to tear that mother up with our historic smooth island jams from Jamaica, MON

The defense needs to find playmakers. If you could get Revis for a second and fourth you would be crazy not to do the deal. You would have to sign a new deal with Revis before you make the trade of course.

Mistic, I already know your stance on QB situation…..Let’s just say “For instance” we knew were were going to draft a RB this year…..Who would you want, and why?
I like Stephon Taylor (No way we’d get him)
Lattimore is awesome (HUGE injury risk)
Kenjon Barner (Really like him, ran with Lamichael James for 3 years)
==========
i wouldnt draft an rb, i think they are dime a dozen.
i like the oregon back, but dmac and goodson are good enough to win with.
plus with low cost guys out there like blount i dont see the need
in a passing league backs are not at a premium.
i would spend my draft on defense and o line

*********
1) we don’t have a second round pick
2) even if we did have one, he’s likely going for at a minimum a first round pick and another pick.
3) Revis is a contract holdout risk. He held out on his rookie deal with 3 years left on it.
January 24th, 2013 at 12:24 pm
Dmac, Reece, Goodson, Stewart = good enough.

2 have won rookie of the year the last two seasons and one is in the superbowl.
LOL you love to hate me, but I am simply reporting what is coming and you heard it here first
==============
You know, I’ve talked about this subject for the past few years with friends….Having beers and whatnot. Believe it or not, I shared your opinion. I didn’t coin the phrase “wave of the future” but I was telling folks that the position of QB was slowly changing. This last year was BIG for the NFL in that respect…Especially with the likes of Mariota / Manzeil and others that are preparing to make the jump. But still, it could be years before it’s solid, or a recognized style of play in the pro’s. It’s not a POPULAR opinion, but that’s all it is……Opinion. Time will tell in any case.
January 24th, 2013 at 12:27 pm
Just watch Revis will end up at a division rival next year and we will see him twice a year. We could give next years 2 and this years 4 for Revis. He is the best player at his position and the Jets will trade him.

i dont blame black actors for performing in the movie, they may not even be aware of how they are being used or portrayed as they are also victims of racism
the movie is fictitious, and so should be viewed no different than disney on ice fantasy

Why wait to find out? McFadden is on his last year and if he busts out in 13 well with our cap situation we likely lose him to free agency or overpay him going into his 30’s. But then again, he’s likely to break down and in that case we overpaid him for 13 as well. And in the end he walks for nothing but maybe a comp pick in 15. Seems like a no brainer to shop him and recoup some of the wasted potential and I think our core group plus a drafted RB will be “good enuf”
January 24th, 2013 at 12:30 pm
Al would have found a way to make the trade happen and he wouldnt have given up a first and second round pick to make the deal happen either.

Interesting story about Jim Harbuagh making the trip to Reno to check out and throw the rock around with Kaepernick. One of things Harbaugh did was compete against Kaep to see who could throw the tighter spiral. There is a reason for that: that is the very definition of “catchable ball”. One thing Palmer does is throws a very catchable ball. Amazing in fact. If Harbaugh had a competition with Pryor and saw the fluttering, end over end ducks that Pryor consistently launches, Harbuagh would have been back in his car, halfway back to the Bay Area, before one of Pryors wounded ducks fluttered to the ground.

So, I’m watching the NFLN coverage of the Senior Bowl practices to get an idea of what kind of coach DA is.
Really couldn’t tell much. Didn’t get to see or hear all that much from him. Was kind of disappointed in the coverage.
But from what I did see, I’m less than impressed.
The guy is so bland.
Does not seem to have a forceful, commanding personality at all.
About the only interesting things about Smiling Titty Boy are those spectacular man-boobs.
STB was trying to conceal those puppies by sporting a loosely fitting pull-over hoodie – but they’re just so freakish looking, you couldn’t help but notice them anyway.
Kind of funny to think that a skinny geek with tits like DA actually played DB at Texas A&M.
Anyone ever see some tape of him playing ? I just can’t imagine it.
It’s been reported that Sloturdo McWhiff told STB “You ain’t schit” during their blow-up.
Can’t tell for sure, but from the few interviews I’ve seen with Smiling Titty Boy and the limited glimpses I got during the Senior Bowl coverage, I suspect that Slo McWhiff is probably correct.

1. your insistence that you do have the right to decide for black people is a racist thought process. it says you think you can dictate to us, but i would chop off your head first.
Free people decide for themselves you have no say so
2. you have no idea what a ‘black power movement’ is or isnt. you have no idea if its alive or dead, if it fits in or doesnt. You are not black and are not qualified to to decide for us what fits or does not fit. nobody cares about your ‘opinion’ we dont need or want it
3. you claim the ‘modern world’ as if it is different than it always has been here for lack people. It isnt.
As long as black men can be targeted and killed by whites simply for the color of their skin i will never lower my machette. The new york times backs me up
**************
1) i don’t insist on deciding for black people or anyone else. never said that. ur a lair once again. but i’m entitled to an opinion. i’m free too idiot.
2) of course i know what the black power movement was. it’s history. it’s dead. passe. most blacks agree. most blacks definitely care about my opinion, as they are interested in intelligent discourse and a meeting of the minds. that’s how things go forward. ur interested in going backward.
3) if one white person ever kills a black person with racist intentions, then it means the world is no different than slave times or pre-civil rights days? truly ignorant and very insulting to ur own people, who have come so far, thru peace and intelliigence.
ur machete? u would chop my head off? so, ur into violence cuz u hate violence? what a scholar.

This is what I see too in DA. I don’t care about the STB comments but I do see where a punk like McClain could mouth off to him. He lacks a force of personality. This isn’t high school ball. These are grown men and they respond to type A personalities. DA doesn’t seem to be one and I don’t think you ever grow into a type A personality. You are either born with it or you aren’t. I am patiently biding my time and hoping I am wrong, but I too doubt that DA is the man to lead us back to greatness. Something just doesn’t jive with that guy.

Right now, he’s still got name power and people think he’s elite in the class of the best NFL backs. Why not take advantage of his bogus status while it still exists?

Yes. When Jay threw for 4k it was on a Wash. team that went 12-4 and it was the reason that caused us to want him on the Raiders.
Say what u want about the rest of his lackluster career, but THAT was a very good season.
Same with Sipe’s 1980 season when he threw for 4k. It was a good season. Browns went 11-5.
Normally 4k is a good season…no matter what the qb does the rest of his career.
There’s no getting around that Palmer’s 4k did not translate into us winning games. 4-12 is 4-12.
My point is NORMALLY 4k yard seasons result in a decent record as it did in Jay’s and Sipe’s 4k campaigns, and it bears looking into what else is wrong with this team.
All I know is even if it’s Pryor in there this yr. we’ve got to have receivers who can catch.
THAT is a big problem that has to get fixed.

The NFL was skeptical of Palmer since preseason. That’s why nobody gave us a chance.

Disagree. The consensus was that the Raiders would struggle due to a completely new front office and coaching staff and a salary cap situation that required releasing or not re-signing key players, and a lack of cap space to replace them or upgrade the team in any meaningful way.

Special teams units are probably the most fungible unit in football. You probably have 50% turnover on those teams from year to year.
Studying tape of the Raiders ST last year when half those guys will be different this upcoming year? Eh, you can do that in the weeks after you get hired just the same.

Who knows maybe even Pryor starting status will improve our Defense and special teams!

On offense, becoming a vertical passing, power gap blocking, running team will depend completely on our offensive line.

LG-Stephen Wizniewski
So…Who should our other 3 o-linemen be. Either by means of our current roster, the draft, or free agency, who should be our starting Center, Right Guard, and Right Tackle be?
The task is to create an All Pro offensive line. Fill in the names from middle to right!
January 24th, 2013 at 1:01 pm
If Pryor can improve all the aspects of our game then I say start him but we all know that he cant improve on the QB position.
So yes if Pryor makes our defense better and our WR’s are all of the sudden Pro Bowl material because we simply start him then yes please do start him but DON’T expect the QB play to improve!

You good look at it in a positive way and say it speaks well for us having a HC who is so well thought of that a reputable coach would come work with just at the mention of his name.
Personally, I have never disliked a Raider HC anymore than I do DA. Maybe “disliked” is the wrong word….but i’m trying to be open minded about him.

I think we could get a late 2nd for DMC, but I could be wrong. If his value is a 3rd rounder, then yes I agree you take your chances with him and hope for the best.
As for the ST turnover, yes that’s true. But we have some high profile names on our ST’s. Our kicking/punting unit is currently the highest priced and may be shaken up this offseason. And J Ford is coming to KR duties. But the special teams coach gots nothing on these guys? I think even casually you have to do some tidbit of homework, no?

“So…Who should our other 3 o-linemen be. Either by means of our current roster, the draft, or free agency, who should be our starting Center, Right Guard, and Right Tackle be?”
If Pryor is starting he only needs 2 O-Linemen!
January 24th, 2013 at 1:04 pm
missdcik–a love pryor and black qb’s. u try to cover it by saying ur a fan of a certain offense. but that wouldn’t explain ur undying love for campbell would it? u hate palmer cuz he took campbell’s place. ur biased and as such, ur incapable of objectively judging palmer.
on the other hand, i am on the record as saying i loved brooks and culpepper, and that i am aware palmer can be reckless. i am objective and only see results and potential.
palmer is a good qb. he’s better than pryor. pryor is a poor passer. ur blind bigotry and hatred make a fool of u, same as they have made fools out of every hateful bigot the world has ever known.
u are hitler. u are garvey. u are a southern plantation slave owner. u are darfur and south africa. a nazi. a colonialist. a eugenist. all the worst race-haters in the world. this is what u teach ur children. awful.

Personally, I have never disliked a Raider HC anymore than I do DA. Maybe “disliked” is the wrong word….but i’m trying to be open minded about him.
***********
What can you do? Like him, hate him. We all have to pretty much live with him as long as Reggie is backing him up. I’m not calling for a mutiny on DA, but I’m sick to my stomach when they talk about 4 year plans and how Reggie and DA are on 4 year contracts. Because I don’t have that much patience. I wanna know for a fact that Mark Davis will take action long before that shelf life expires. If he continues to lose and still keeps his job, then my hate for him and Reggie will grow.

On offense, becoming a vertical passing, power gap blocking, running team will depend completely on our offensive line.
We currently have TWO starting, pro bowl caliber o linemen in
LT-Jared Veldheer
LG-Stephen Wizniewski
So…Who should our other 3 o-linemen be. Either by means of our current roster, the draft, or free agency, who should be our starting Center, Right Guard, and Right Tackle be?
The task is to create an All Pro offensive line. Fill in the names from middle to right!
========================================
Heres my vision:
LT – Eric Fischer – C.Mich
LG – Wiz JR
C – Brian Schwenke – CAL
RG – T. Bergstrom
RT – J. Veldeer

Also guest123
Special teams units are probably the most fungible unit in football. You probably have 50% turnover on those teams from year to year.
Studying tape of the Raiders ST last year when half those guys will be different this upcoming year? Eh, you can do that in the weeks after you get hired just the same.
—
ST’s kick coverage is HUGE. SD game had us in the hole from the opening kick and that 7 pt’s cost us big time since we lost by 3.
And 2011? That k/o return by Denver and then again that critical game w/ SD for the division title cost us dearly.
Hopefully, April can help fix that crap.

January 24th, 2013 at 1:09 pm
yeah guest, I couldn’t tell if the ST position was something people applied to in Oakland or if Allen just reached out and asked guys if they were interested.
If it was the latter, I’m guessing a quick broad conversation about philosophy and strategy would be all getting hired entails, as opposed to having days to plan for an interview (then having to prep by knowing the actual players).
Possibility 3, which is way more fun, would be that the Raiders return and coverage teams were so awful, a coach who was hired here would not WANT TO talk about what specifics he espoused on Allen during their conversations

Al would have found a way to make the trade happen and he wouldnt have given up a first and second round pick to make the deal happen either.
******************************
1. Yes we still have the cap hit if we trade Palmer. It is a signing bonus. He ALREADY HAS THE MONEY, if we trade him, cut him, kill him, or ship him to Mars that cap hit immediatly comes due.
2. Reggie has insisted since arriving he is not going to give up draft picks to bring in veteran players. To give up a 2nd and 4th for a player that only has 1 year on his contract is ludicrous (the remaining 3 years on Revis’s contract are a PLAYER option, his choice, he will definitely opt out to try and get more money)
3. Do not tell me what Al would do to get him. Al had 4 winning seasons since the salary cap was instituted. His way is NOT successful

don’t confuse me saying that there is so much turnover on the ST that you don’t really need to know the guys inside out to get hired…
with saying ST aren’t important. Of course they’re very important. But when half are changing each year, I’d give a ST coach a pass if I called him and he didn’t have pages of notes on how to best use each of my special team guys.

Revis has a history of whining about contracts and holding out. He’s going to want a fat contract and best case he performs like a stud, he’s gonna whine and complain and holdout while the market for shutdown CB’s passes him up. And then hold out again. That’s the best case scenario. So your damned either way with Revis. Just let it go. Let him be someone else’s problem.

Yes. I sincerely doubt that the fanbase or Mark Davis are gonna patiently sit here and accept that we are playing for the #1 pick in 2014 for Jadaveon Clowney.
MOST of us wanna win and win NOW. We may realize the talent limitations and accept it to a degree but we see too many instances where things get turned around fast in the NFL and it gets harder to just nod our head’s and be “understanding”.
Most of us will be happy with merely being competitive and being in the mix. I expect more. I always will.

January 24th, 2013 at 1:17 pm
Guest123
why the lack of patience? The teams that I see have one-year turnarounds (Seahawks, Redskins, Colts, Broncos, 49ers)
either had tremendous rosters underachieving because they needed (and found) a QB…or like the Rams, had 7 draft picks in the first 3 rounds to quickly turn a roster around (and they had a young impressive QB).
Raiders are more comparable to the Browns, Jaguars, and Dolphins – bad for a LONG time, bad drafts, with no young star QB to turn it around immediately. It WILL take time.

Hue wanted to win now. Most HC’s do.

Maybe I’m the only one saying this, but here goes:
“Mark’s Hair” may love the team and it has been in the family for decades, but it’s time for him to get out. He doesn’t have the football knowledge or the maverick chutzpah of his old man, and the team will continue to lose revenue hand over fist as long as it stays in the “Hole.Co” Coliseum.
A new stadium ain’t happening, and as soon as he can sell to a group that will take it back to L.A., we’ll get new life and a new revenue stream (but hopefully, keep the same unis and logo!) I wish the team could stay in Oakland, but the reality is – NOT. We’re doing well to tread water and make progress – let’s see if we can make a playoff push this season, raise the value of the franchise a little, help Mark find a good buyer to take this team into the 21st century – finally! – and get back to our winning ways. Commitment to Excellence is going to mean a lot more changes up top!

Seahawks / Russell Wilson (loaded D already there)
49ers / Harbaugh turned QB position around (loaded D there)
Bucs / won 10 games just two years ago, young QB/RB/WR
We aren’t like those teams that were able to turn it around quickly. They had solid rosters, great Ds, and just needed the right QB.

I realize IT will take time. What is IT? IT is a Superbowl trophy. I realize IT will take time. I’ll settle for being competitive in the division and even if we don’t make the playoffs we field a competitive team. I’m not patient with being the whipping boy of perrenial playoff teams. I’m not expecting a one year turnaround. I want to be realistic. But the way the team plays series to series, quarter to quarter…the intensity, the will, execution. All that stuff has to be on display in spades and I expect our team to suprise some people every now and then. Not just beat the teams we should beat. If that’s 7-9 or 8-8 next year, so be it. But it needs to be focused in a direction. Not like last season where we were up down sideways and everywhere but pulling the same rope in the same direction.

last year was exactly as expected. No 1st round pick, no 2nd round pick, no worthy FA signed = really bad team.
This year will be a little better, but we had a bad O, a bad D, and bad ST. Even the Browns and Dolphins have solid D’s to build on, so we might still not be better than them next year.
7 wins would be exciting next year, honestly. Clowney or QB in 2014 draft and then playoff door-knocking in 2015 as Manning starts declining and the Andy Reid continues his non-McNabb slide.

lol jay schroeder and brian sipe also i the 4k club
—
Yes. When Jay threw for 4k it was on a Wash. team that went 12-4 and it was the reason that caused us to want him on the Raiders.
Say what u want about the rest of his lackluster career, but THAT was a very good season.
Same with Sipe’s 1980 season when he threw for 4k. It was a good season. Browns went 11-5.
Normally 4k is a good season…no matter what the qb does the rest of his career.
There’s no getting around that Palmer’s 4k did not translate into us winning games. 4-12 is 4-12.
My point is NORMALLY 4k yard seasons result in a decent record as it did in Jay’s and Sipe’s 4k campaigns, and it bears looking into what else is wrong with this team.
All I know is even if it’s Pryor in there this yr. we’ve got to have receivers who can catch.
THAT is a big problem that has to get fixed.
==============
it only matters if you win
4k in losing seasons means nothing other than grab age stats plying from behind with defense giving up yrads on underneath throws
grbac stafford kitna and others will all tell you this
40000 yards doesnt mean squat when you lose unless you are a young qb rookie or 2nd year players.

Anyone else see STB’s interview today ?
When asked what areas the RAIDS needed to improve on, STB said there were alot of areas, but specifically mentioned shoring up the defense.
Lot of talk in here about going OL with the top pick, and that could happen, but my guess is the RAIDS will be placing a priority on upgrading the D in the upcoming draft.
When STB was asked about DMAC, he hinted that he didn’t think he was used correctly last season and wanted to play to his strengths 2013.
A rebuke of Gregg Krapp.
I’m thinking that STB is hoping that a coaching and scheme change will go a long way to revitalizing the RAIDER offense and that the more pressing personnel needs remain on the defense.
He might be right.

KK
that Broncos D last year was #20 because of the NUMEROUS points given away by Tebow pick-6s and 3-and-outs. Way higher than most teams.
Also had Dumerville injured all year. With Dumerville and better QB play, we knew that was a loaded D.
January 24th, 2013 at 1:33 pm

Stop making stuff up! Their D actually got WORSE! They got better by drafting almost all offense. Same as Indy.
Once again.. All 8 teams were in the top 11 in OFFENSE! Stop pretending that defense gets teams into the playoffs.
Defense gets teams to the SB.. sure, but the quickest way to the playoffs is by offense.

many are missing that point. Stafford threw for over 5,000 yards.. Calvin johnson had 1900 Recieving yards.. they were 5-11
You shouldnt want and Vet like palmer throwing 50 times a game. U need to get the run game going and control the game.

this is very true as evidenced by the 30 times the defenders caught his passes in his 24 games here

Of course if you take the 6 picks in the lst two games he has been pretty accurate with the rock.

but even if i use your fairy god mother wand 24 picks in 24 games is down right ugly
a pick per game is good enough for you?

that Broncos D last year was #20 because of the NUMEROUS points given away by Tebow pick-6s and 3-and-outs. Way higher than most teams.
Also had Dumerville injured all year. With Dumerville and better QB play, we knew that was a loaded D.

40000 yards doesnt mean squat when you lose unless you are a young qb rookie or 2nd year players.
************
nice attempt to cover for newton there.
why would 4k mean a lot for losing young qb’s but not for vets?
it’s an easy answer. we all know it. u refuse to acknowledge truth. he plays on a bad team and qb’s can’t win games by themselves.
ur so dishonest it’s sick.

And to do this we need a very good offensive line. From Center all the way to the right, we need serious upgrades.
Breisel, Carlisle and Barnes must go immediately. But who replaces them?

on the other hand, i am on the record as saying i loved brooks and culpepper, and that i am aware palmer can be reckless. i am objective and only see results and potential.
palmer is a good qb. he’s better than pryor. pryor is a poor passer. ur blind bigotry and hatred make a fool of u, same as they have made fools out of every hateful bigot the world has ever known.
u are hitler. u are garvey. u are a southern plantation slave owner. u are darfur and south africa. a nazi. a colonialist. a eugenist. all the worst race-haters in the world. this is what u teach ur children. awful.

easy dumbazz
a rookie seeing the nfl for the first time carving up the defense for 4000 yards is affirmation of his draft status and proof you can build with him.
In newtons case that is lumped in with his rest of historic assault on the nfl record books and the fact that he IMPROVED THE WIN TOTAL FOR HIS TEAM TWO YEARS RUNnING.

How dare you mention them in the same vein.
By the way hitler exterminated roughly 6 million so called semites, why? because he said they were not pure white. hence the term semite, semi white
Any body cross referencing Garvey and hitler is either terribly misinformed or just a flat out idiot.

Tebow’s pick 6’s wouldn’t figure into Denver’s defensive ranking, unless we’re talking about overall points given up by the team.
I don’t think the 20th ranking is based on total pt’s given up though.

well, gee, uh, i’m pretty sure that slaves WERE uneducated and DID need white people’s help to escape that oppression. u may recoil at the thought but it’s the truth.
and there are film classes that are taken and taught by BOTH whites and blacks, along with afro-american studies classes, taken and taught by BOTH whites and blacks, that discuss all these subjects and their meanings. i DO have the right as an american, and intelligent person, to discuss my opinion and those of others. it’s called free speech idiot. i CAN tell u that ur wrong and that does NOT mean i’m racist. it means i’m capable of logic and objectivity which u apparently lack.
rosewood was interesting in the same way that the historical facts of black cowboys and businessmen and slave owners are. but it was an anomaly. u may prefer a modern idea of blacks kicking azz on their own, but it’s not history.
the suggestion that tarantino doesn’t have the right to make a movie about slaves is like me saying spike lee can’t make a story about white people. ignorant and bigoted at its most fundamental level.

NEW REGGIE MCKENZIE INTERVIEW
k: Q&A: Former Packers’ exec McKenzie says ‘the culture will change’ in Oakland – JSOnline
Mobile, Ala. — For 18 years, Reggie McKenzie had been a mainstay in Green Bay. From 1994 to 2012, McKenzie grew from a scout to director of player personnel to director of football operations. Now, he’s finally running the show in Oakland. McKenzie’s first year as the Oakland Raiders’ general manager was reminiscent of Ted Thompson’s first year as G.M. in Green Bay. Both teams went 4-12.
As McKenzie explains, rebuilding the Raiders starts from the inside out. Here’s what the Raiders boss had to say about taking over, trying to instill a new culture in Oakland and a potential change at quarterback:
Q: How has it been taking over your own team?
McKenzie: “Coming off the season we had, you’re judged by wins and losses. Coming up with four wins is not good enough. But even going into, I knew what we had to get done. We’re trying to change a lot of things around here, starting with the culture. We have a rookie coach, we have a rookie G.M. We kind of took our bumps here. We’re getting the players we need to get in here, getting the salary cap together. I’ve got almost a full arsenal of draft picks. I’m missing my two and five. Wish I could have those. We’ll find a way to get this thing done.
“Let me tell you something — we’re moving in the right direction. And it’s all about making good decisions. We have a good core of players right now. We’re making sure we get the right fit of 53 players by the end of this whole process so we can start the season ready to roll.”
Q: What did you learn in Green Bay with Ted Thompson?
McKenzie: “It’s all about building your team — build your staff, build your locker room, put the right kind of people in. They want to be Raiders. They want to win. And it’s all about the team. We had that in Green Bay.”
Q: How do you change the culture?
McKenzie: “It takes time. You can change moving parts and all that. But to change the culture, that’s going to take some time. I’m trying to get that back. I’m trying to get the Raider Way back. And we’re going to get it done. But you change it day by day. You can’t just quickly overhaul everything. That’s not going to change anything.”
Q: So it’s about the minor changes?
McKenzie: “That helps, that helps. I’m going to continue to do that. We made some changes with the staff, which is the way we need to go. That’s going to help that process. We’re going to get this thing rolling. It’s going to be fine now. The culture will change.”
Q: What’s the culture you want?
McKenzie: “When people look at us, they’re going to see professionalism. They’re going to see a winning attitude. They’re going to be a part of a winning atmosphere. They’re going to see our brand of football, which is physical, tough, high-energy play. I want people to be excited to go see a Raider game. So that’s what we’re trying to get to.”
Q: Will Terrelle Pryor have a chance to start this year?
McKenzie: “I want Terrelle to get a shot to show himself at quarterback. I told the whole staff, everybody’s going to compete for their job. So he’s competing for his job.

If u look up Nike pro combat uniforms Theres a few new all black raider helmets that totally badass I’m not for changing our uniforms or helmets but I would so be down if they decided to wear the all black helmet just once a year

1142,
Semite comes from the biblical figure ‘Shem’ who’s descendants are said to be of jewish ancestry.
It DOES NOT mean “semi-white”.
===========
actually it is family of languages from north Afrika, and the original stock of people that invented and spoke these languages were black. They taught these languages to European when they tuaght them the various accompanying religions and spiritual; practices.
there was mixing of people through sexual intercourse and this is why they are not consider ‘pure white’ by hitler and others like the kkk and dr slob
semi white
*********
lol. this is how the 5-percenters ignorantly mangle language and come up with idiotic ideas.
it’s from “Shem”. put together with “-ite”, it means someone from “Shem”. a “Shemite”, or “Semite”. these are ancient languages. and this stooge thinks it comes from semi-white. this might be truly the most moronic thing i’ve heard on this blog.
but i’ll bet u anything missdick doesn’t like jews.
notice all the talk of “stocks” of people. just like hitler.

I see nothing wrong with Raiders wearing an Alternate uniform 2x a year

Q: Will Terrelle Pryor have a chance to start this year?
McKenzie: “I want Terrelle to get a shot to show himself at quarterback. I told the whole staff, everybody’s going to compete for their job. So he’s competing for his job. Whether he’s 1, 2 or 3, he’s competing for his job. Starter, that’ll be carried out by coaches at the end of training camp. Show me you’re competitive. You want to get better. We’ll see how it goes.”

Palmer threw 14 INTs this year. That’s far from terrible.
=================
that is 1 pick per game…terrible
he also fumbled and has an actual total of 19 turn overs
terrible
he only mustered 4 wins….terrible

Reggiem a look back:
Positives:
-Bringing in Wheeler
-Drafting Burris (in a slim draft)
a)DA
-Benching McClain
-Penalties have decreased
Negatives:
-Offensive Regression/Learning by “trial and error”
-Approving the Knapp hire/switch to ZBS
-The missing 7 million in cap space
-Failing to hire a short-yardage RB, when it was foreseeable that Mclain would get injured
a)DA
-Special Teams Coaching was horrible (see back-up long snapper laughing on the sideline after blowing the first game instead of practicing for next punt)
-Not taking over play-calling when it was painfully obvious that offense was going nowhere.
-Failing to use Janokowski in certain situations

Jake Long is looking for a better offer than the fins gave him. Any takers?
