Gameballs
Sheldon brown- guy played a great game today
Josh Gordon- career day for the kid and with the way this draft looks, giving up our second for him is not looking too bad anymore
Brandon weeden- the guy started off shakey, but he calmed down and played much better even with the 2 picks he had an 88 rating
Joe Haden- the guy is a great player not much more can be said
Goats-
None we won!

I'm handing a GOAT to Weeds because of his picks. We won by three. We should have won by much, much more. Over threw a wide open Watson, under threw a touchdown for Gordon. Terrible.
Josh Gordon makes me happy. He had a shaky start, he had a stretch of games where the bomb was working. He's running good routes, he's playing great. I'm pumped to pencil him in as our second this year. Great, great player. Stud in the making.
Greg Little gets a gameball because he stopped being a prima donna. Greg Little is starting to get it.
The D gets a gameball for winning two weeks in a row. Anytime a D can keep a team in a game, it's great. Outside of Buffalo, New York, and the loss to Cinci, our D has been great. |

We win by 3 because.... blocked fg, last drive in garbage time and horrible 3 down play calling.
Even without the 3rd down play calling, it should have ended 23-13.
Yes the picks were bad, but he ended throwing over 66% and led us on some pretty good drives in the 2nd half.
I don't think he gets a game ball, but def not a GOAT

Two picks that are the only reason that they Raiders could have taken a lead in the third. |

I heard Reghi say 66% too...but isn't 25/36 69.4%?
Am i missing something? (I'm serious)
And his ypa was over 10 yards

I'd call that reason Buster Skrine

Two picks that kept us from points. It could have very well been 24-3 at half. |

Actually, the defense allowing 56% on 3rd down was the main reason.
Only one INT turned into 3 points and that was after the Raiders started at their own 8 yard line.

With our play calling in the red zone??? I bet we get 2 field goals at best.
I'm not saying it didn't hurt, but it was not his fault that they almost caught up.

How about you look at it from the other angle...If he doesn't throw a TD pass, we lost. So maybe he won the game?????
He had a QB rating of 88 and comp % of 69.4%. Solid numbers for any QB.

Brown played his best game as a Brown IMO.

Balls to the entire defense.
