Denver has a very solid defense... It doesn't matter if they have High Pitched Voice Manning or Skinny Legs Manning under center for their offense. Raiders should be fired up for this game. It will be a good measuring stick for them to see where they are at. I got the feeling that Murray after his performance against Cleveland was probably expecting more touches?
Can't give away games. Homerism aside, nothing convinces me about the Denver contest. Whoever has TE Owen Daniels on their Fantasy League probably has taken note already. The San Diego game is a possibility IF everyone shows up and is focused. Then again, Gates is back by then so there...
we're home...the dirt is gone...any given Sunday? i have a feeling the AC/DC show will be in full effect
If there was a game so far this season to go all out...it is this one. This is where Cooper could show how he is worth the fourth selection going against arguably the best corner in The League Talib.
Inspite of two bungled opps against Chicago and Denver...King has Oakland ranked at 19. Not great but not bottom dwelling either. http://mmqb.si.com/mmqb/2015/10/13/...nning-interceptions-nfl-power-rankings-week-5 - Woodson could be the best defensive back in Raider not necessarily League history. He is having a fine career much like his D-backs coach with whom he shares the same last name. - So, speculation that the ill-timed fly-over caused that game changing pick six by Carr? Nah. Did they flew over when Janikowski botched his two field goal attempts? Bottom line is the squad blew it. Ugh... - This ongoing Murray situation is concerning. Talented but enigmatic. He can't pull a Duane Thomas on a no-nonsense coach like Del Rio. - taking solace that Kansas City and San Diego lost so we did not fall down the division.
Del Rio has a short leash on everyone. He was baffled by Musgrave's play calling in the red zone which stalled deep Raider drives. Hell, I was too!
from a member of a Raiders group im in; "My cousin met Aldon Smith last night at a restaurant in the city. He approached him said "you're Aldon Smith" Aldon said "Nah I wish I was. I just playing yea I am." They chop it up for a minute and to test him my cousin asks "Can I buy you a beer?" Aldons response. "Thank you but no thank u. Any alcohol related items and I could lose my job."
Yep...good to see Ball getting time. His coverage skills are very good. After his health issues, he more than deserves a shot.
