There is more to the Raider story than we see IMHO. Either they get on board with Russel and McFadden, or continue to embarrass themselves :hmm:

hardflip posted : McFadden and Russell didn't look that bad to me, I'm not saying they looked great, but they didn't look as bad as the scoreboard would indicate. They are inexperienced, they need consistency around them.

I think it was mostly a bad O-line and a lack of any sort of motivation on the part of most of the team, particularly the defense. They got no pressure on Cutler and their defensive backs were too often out of position. Blown coverage, stupid penalties, giving up on plays and an overall lack of intensity are going to solidify them nothing more than another exciting draft pick.

Every team has talent.

The Raiders looked terrible, like the last few years they just look like they don't care, they look as sloppy as any professional sports team can look.

The more I hear about what's going on in the front office the more I think Al Davis is senile... I don't think things will change for the Raiders as long as he's still in charge.

I won`t give up on Mcfadden or Russel just yet. I have a feeling they will earn some respect for themselves bfeore it`s all said and done :)

Chargers are overhyped and never deliver in the playoffs. Hell, they lost to Carolina! Granted Carolina looked impressive.

I hate to say it, but the Cowboys look VERY strong.. on both sides of the ball. Might be the team to beat this year.

And I still like Pennington as a QB, so I like that he had a good game with the exception of that last pass.

But in the end, it's the JETS winning that matters :D.

I mean can a defense play any better than this Eagles defense today? Reid and others weren't lying about this being the fastest defense the Eagles have ever had
