Lol, I like the fumble-fest in Seattle so far. It's so rainy that the ball comes out about every third play. :D Keeps things interesting!

All that said, I think the Raiders need a lot of help, and if i was them i would just draft the best available player, giving offense linemen priority.
He's also been with them since the beginning, and has built them through the years into one of the most popular and revenue generating franchises in the entire league. Even though they've been terrible lately, they still have massive gear sales. I'm not necessarily saying it's right or wrong that he stays, I'm just saying he's not going to relinquish any control when he's proven for decades that he can put together a team that can go to the Super Bowl. Heck, he's gone to a Super Bowl in every decade except the 90s.Quote:

Even though we have one of the best full backs in the history of the league he doesn't ever use Allstot. It will be 3rd and 3 and he'll call a short inside pass or something... stupid.
idk, I want a new offense, this west coast offense works great under QBs who know it, not rookies.
His entire complaint this season is that he doesn't have a veteren QB like we had in Brad Johnson. Gruden is like a clean up coach that comes into an built up team and brings them to the superbowl then drives them to the ground.
lol@seahawks
I don't even know what to say.
lol, great game for SF...all that does is assure my thoughts that Seattle will not go to the Superbowl like many say they will.
SF was nothing special, Seattle was just worse.
More like "said they would before the season." I haven't heard too many people that are all that high on their chances to make the Super Bowl for most of the actual season.Quote:

He's staying that's for sure, but if you ask any Raider "fan" they'll all agree that he should keep his hand out of the day to day and roster decisions, regardless what you outsiders think or say.Quote:

Well he is playing out of position this year as a guard instead of a tackle. No matter, he's hurt now anyways.Quote:

Oakland thought it would be OK with either Aaron Brooks or Andrew Walter, and that just hasn't been the case. Now, the Raiders will look at QB in the upcoming draft, but there won't be anyone in Leinart's caliber -- and that includes Notre Dame's Brady Quinn.
