The same reason our D-line picked that day to not shut down the run and the D-backs to alow so much distance between them and the WR's. :sh |
Re: Raiders Fans - Check in
Flew back from London yesterday so only made it part way through the 3rd quarter last night but looked like they may be getting back on track.
I also predict that Rivers will have a mental breakdown before the end of the season .... |
Re: Raiders Fans - Check in
Heading to Miami next month with a bunch of friends to see the Raiders take on the Dolphins!

Re: Raiders Fans - Check in
Sounds like a great time!

Re: Raiders Fans - Check in
GREAT first half. All dimensions of the team were clickin' well.
What the heck happened at halftime??? Talk about going into prevent mode and getting conservatinve on the offensive play-calling. 24 points 1st half and 3 in the second. And what about the defense marching the Vikings down the field with penalties??? Wow, what a manic game. Good job Raiders but you better get those penalties in-check. |
Re: Raiders Fans - Check in
Agreed

I think Hugh needs to not completely shutdown the offense again because it didn't look like they can get it restarted if needed in the future. Just WIN Baby, Just WIN! |
Re: Raiders Fans - Check in
Holding on for another win today ... 7-4

Re: Raiders Fans - Check in
Another nail-bighter too!

Re: Raiders Fans - Check in
Big game coming up today! I think the game will be decided by less than seven but with Raiders winning. If we had our offensive pieces in place (DMC, TJones, Ford, & Moore) we would be unstoppable. Yet this is the NFL and all teams deal with injuries.
On a side note, wow looking at my first post in this thread, glad that didn't turn out!!! :tu |
Re: Raiders Fans - Check in
:td forgot to play maybe?

Re: Raiders Fans - Check in
Very weak performance from all areas of the entire team! Also back to "way to many penalties". Stupid actions from a veteran like Seymore, getting ejected mid way thru for throwing a punch. Poor game plan for that game. Reese was doninant in last weeks game. This week they didnt even call his number until the last 5 minutes of the game and he made 2 huge plays??
Plamer was spot-on the first half, his receivers just kept dropping everything!! After that he got a little frazzled and started throwing behind receivers. Gotta give it to the Miami Defense. They came prepared and shut down our run completely and defended the backfield well. Overall performance: Offensive line = Weak Receivers = Weak Defense = Weak Special Teams = Weak |
Re: Raiders Fans - Check in
Raider implosion again at the end of the season :(
I will be hoping for at least one more good game out of them as I will be sitting in Arrowhead this Saturday. |
Re: Raiders Fans - Check in
Just hanging my head .... again.
|
Re: Raiders Fans - Check in
We had front row seats in the Black Hole. It was a great game......until we ran a Prevent Defense and let them go 99 yards in the last 3 min.
We needed one more good push out of the D and they just couldnt get it done. Bummer. They better be good-n-pissed for San Diego and K.C. |
Re: Raiders Fans - Check in
Choke. All we had to do was beat the Chargers. Broke my heart again.

Re: Raiders Fans - Check in
So 8-8 not bad but not great. Looking back there are games they should have won and let go - Buffalo, Detroit and Denver ... it would have been nice to make the playoffs but this team was not all there this year.
Biggest disappointment of the season goes to McFadden. Great player but he has to actually play a season to be valuable to the team. We could have used him. Bush is good but McFadden can change a game. Off season moves: I am guessing they will trade Campbell, I would like to see them shop for a pair of corners and trade McFadden. Surprise of the season Heyward-Bey - only took 3 years but he is performing well and catching the ball :) Moore was also a great introduction and one of Palmer's favorite targets. Palmer was a wash for the season but really it was hard to say he could walk into a team in the middle of the season without playing the first half of the season at all and do great. Maybe next year ... |

You're right about them not being all there this year. Nevertheless, it would have been nice to at least see them make the playoffs. It would have felt like ... well ... progress. |
Re: Raiders Fans - Check in
Another year, another new head coach.

Re: Raiders Fans - Check in
Dennis Allen (Broncos defensive coordinator) hired as the Raiders new head coach.
I don't know much about him other than Denver did have a solid defense this year while we did not. As always the number of Ws will determine whether this was a good move or if the ghost of Uncle Al struck from beyond. |
Re: Raiders Fans - Check in
We get rid of Stanford Rout and KC picks him up ... Win, Double Win in my opinion!
|
Re: Raiders Fans - Check in
I have a shamefull confession to make. I was a Raiders fan when I was a kid, then when they moved to Oakland I was pissed and changed teams and never looked back. While I am not proud of my unloyalty to the Raiders, I was young and am now super loyal to my Redskins. I will always be a Dodgers fan though.
|
Re: Raiders Fans - Check in
Another year beginning and I don't get a real good feeling leading into it for the boys in black. I am hoping to be surprised but not counting on it.
Looking forward to seeing them beat the bolts tomorrow night though :) |
Re: Raiders Fans - Check in
I had pretty much written off the Steeler game. What a 4th quarter!
One problem ... now they have gotten my hopes up ... again. |
Re: Raiders Fans - Check in
Great comeback for the Raiders. Finally looked confident, organized and executed pretty well. Glad to see the penalties way down. Thats a great start right there. Good to see the special teams finally step up, they pretty much stunk that first 2 games.
Big bummer about DHB! Cant believe that hit didnt even get a flag. These replacement Ref's totally blow. This makes it interesting heading to Denver next week. |
Re: Raiders Fans - Check in
Looks like this could have the makings of a Jekyll & Hyde season. A very nice surprise yesterday though.

Bout time us Broncos beat you guys!

Re: Raiders Fans - Check in
If Payton keeps it up, you guys will probably take the division again. Hopefully better than 8/8 tho.
Still early, I have hope for my Raiders. This BYE couldnt have come at a better time. It time for some Sole Searchin' Raiders. |
Re: Raiders Fans - Check in
I have tickets to the Chiefs v Raiders game at arrowhead on the 28th ... I think we might have a chance there ....

Hey Carl,,, don't forget about our bet!!

Re: Raiders Fans - Check in
Man, I think we should have just took the ass kicking last year and tried to get a better QB in the draft rather than wasting our draft picks on an old has been QB.
Palmer isn't our man, I can tell you that. It seems like we are just sloppy overall as a team. We have some good players but something is missing and I'm not sure what it is. I think we need to start looking at Geno Smith or Matt Barkley to step in for palmer. It seems to me that we haven't really done squat with our draft picks here as of late. I wish that when AL died, the foundation would have gone out of the family. I truly think his son is going to run this team into the ground even more than it already is. |
Re: Raiders Fans - Check in
Another thing to think about.
Look at how hurt/weak our WR core is. We need another play maker. Plexico Burris is a FA and I think we are stupid for not picking him up. He's a great player IMOP and he proved he could still play last year. He had a pretty darn good season for his first year back. |
Re: Raiders Fans - Check in
They have Pryor ... may or may not be an answer in the future.
IMO the thing missing from this years team ... a coaching staff ... I think we lost a lot of the team this year when we fired another coaching staff. They may suit up on Sunday but ... |
Re: Raiders Fans - Check in

You know what the first thing he did was when he took over? Fired ALL of the coaching staff that his old man had hired. There is an article out there somewhere telling about the incident that led to him doing that. The guy knows jack squat about football. He was just there because daddy was supporting him and he knew he would inherit it all someday. Pryor is ok.....He needs a lot of coaching IMOP but he is a "raiders" quality QB as of now. Nothing special. |
Re: Raiders Fans - Check in
Here, read this if you haven't already. I thought we would get a fresh start when AL was done but it seems to me we will have to put up with Mark (AL's son) for a long long time probably.

I hear ya on this one (except for Pryor, he is still so green). I can see where Reggie was coming from, wanting to hire his own coaching staff...however Jacksons staff was starting to go somewhere....well except for the horrible penalty count. At least thats one thing we have much better control over this season. I think Allen is holding them much more accountable for penalties. In either the 1st or 2nd game I saw Kelly commit 2 penalties, 2 plays in a row. Coach had him sit out for the next 1/2 dozen or so series. |

Good or bad hopefully Allen and McKenzie have more the 1-2 years to build a team otherwise we are never going to get out of our rut if we have a new coaching staff ever 1.5 years. |

Re: Raiders Fans - Check in
A better showing against the Falcons than expected. Now can they improve or do they look like a train wreck next week?
