Michael Vick reminds me a lot of the great No. 12, Randall Cunningham, for the '90s Philadelphia Eagles, minus the flat top, of course. And the bulky pads of yesteryear which would flap in the wind with every scintillating juke; Bam bam BAM! Ankles, ankles, ankles! Gone are the burdensome braids ...Published on: 14th September, 2010
Cutting Trevor Scott would allow Players like Thomas Howard and Matt Shaunessy more playing time. Raider Nation is torn on whether or not Thomas Howard can return to his 2007 form when he had 6 int. and 2 Tds with 11 passes defensed. Matt Shaunessy is a Raider favorite with ...Published on: 12th September, 2010
Tom Cable's Oakland Raider's were pathetic in Tennessee on opening day. Basic Cable has been excused for his incapacity at the expense of the team and Raider Nation by scapegoating certain players. His team has no rhythm or leadership and they are ill prepared and highly predictable week in and ...Published on: 3rd September, 2010
Raiders fans have all kind of excuses as to why Nick Miller and JLH should not be a part of the regular receiving rotation. "Louis Murphy (team leader in drops) is a beast, he caught a TD pass against the Steelers, blah blah blah"..." Hayward-Bey will be way better with a ...Published on: 31st August, 2010
Lost in the mix of hypemen such as Bruce Gradkowski, Darren McFadden and Chaz Schilens is the Raiders statistically best Wide Receiver, fourth year pro Johnnie Lee Higgins. In his entire career Higgins has made one critically unforgivable mistake we'll call "Weddlegate." Despite the electrifying returns, deceptive speed, and skill that made ...Published on: 13th August, 2010
Many NFL fans are conditioned to believe whatever comes from various media outlets. They'll have you to believe that certain players shouldn't play because of inane reasons such as their draft position, background, or experience. Why? Over the course of the past two preseasons, one could argue that the ...Published on: 13th August, 2010
When Tom Cable arrived in Oakland three seasons ago, he was touted as an O-line Guru and was expected to bring some sort of stability and consistency to this unit. Ironically, the offensive line has been the least consistent unit on the Raiders team since his assumption of the ...Published on: 29th July, 2010
Rolando McClain signed his rookie contract in time for the start of Raiders 2010 training camp in Napa, CA. My question is; for how much? And does it really matter? Athletes are often demonized for being greedy, selfish prima-donnas (despite the NFL being a $10 Billion business in which the players ...Published on: 21st July, 2010
We could go on and on about the talent level of the Oakland Raiders from year to year, but somehow that "talent" never materializes into victories. Personally, I think that Chris Johnson and Nnamdi Asomugha is the best CB combo in the NFL. Michael Bush and Darren McFadden COULD be the ...Published on: 18th July, 2010
I have noticed a disturbing trend amongst Raider Nation. Raider fans have a tendency to project players based on their potential. What "might," "should," or "could" happen. This leads me to the question, could the Raiders' supposed best offensive weapon Zach Miller be overrated? I, for the record, would generally answer: ...
