Some interesting notes:
- Raiders scored on every 2nd half possession for 1st time since 10/13/91 vs Sea. They didn't score on 1st OT poss that game but won
- McFadden's 113 yards rushing for Raiders 7th most vs #Steelers since LeBeau became DC in '04
- McFadden 64 TD run for Raiders longest vs #Steelers since Javon Walker 72-yd for Den in 11/5/06
- Brandon Myers 15 catches on 15 targets for Raiders. No one else with 10+ catches is perfect this season
- Only 3 teams have fewer penalties than Raiders 14 thru 3 games
I don't think anyone would have predicted the last 2. _________________

Well to be fair, Al Davis is no longer looming over this organization. It's a different time in Oakland.
You can't deny some of the insane calls/no calls over the years in relation to the Raiders. _________________

Good-
DMAC's run. Hopefully he gains confidence as well as the oline.
Meyers playing really well catching the ball and running with it
I thought there was good pass protection against a good D even if Harrison was missing
Jano!!!
Bad-
No pass rush which allowed the Dbacks to get shredded
Ugly-
Of course the no flag on the DHB hit
Great-
A win
And Dennis Allen giving the team team baseball bats as a symbol. Awesome coaching. www.raidernews.com has the article. Sorry I'm for some reason unable to post the link from my phone |

- Tyvon Branch - I know I lit a fire under you guys w/ all my talks about him over the offseason but has anyone been paying attention?? Has anyone noticed how very average he is? I put him in the bad b/c dude REALLY needs to go to Geometry class. He takes the worst angles I've seen. I can't specifically remember what plays they were but he infuriated me.
|
He's definitely not playing well so far.
I'd say only Shaughnessy and Wheeler have been good on D so far. |
Jtagg has a point. Tyvon regressed big time in coverage this year. Quite disappointed in his play as well as Huff's. Shaggy and Wheeler have been stepping up though. Houston has been solid vs the run but not that good at pass rushing. McClain, Bryant and Burris have shown flashes too. Need more consistent playmakers as BP has mentioned though. |
any word on when curry might return?
bartell and spencer?
needs these guys on the field for at least 2nd half of the season |
I think Curry can come back week 7 against JAX but no word on his status.
I think Bartell can come back week 9 against TB but no word on his status either.
Spencer sounds like he will wont be out past the bye week. |
According to LeviDamien, Bartell can come back week 10 against Baltimore. Not sure if it is accurate but he should know. |
sweet thx for info
we need all the help we can get at this point |

replacement refs dont have built in Raiders bias. When real refs come back and we stay down I will believe. |

IF there was any bias, it was against the man in your sig. Now the Raiders are just like any other team. _________________

Hope so. Old habits die hard. I mean some fans still thought we was just going to draft the fastest players last year. |
