Oakland Raiders News: The Broncos get Exposed as a FRAUD in Mile High:

PrintSweet, sweet...That is the taste in my mouth. As sweet as it was bitter every time I had to watch Peyton Hillis give the Mile High Salute or see Jay Cutler trying to impersonate John Elway's smugness. As sweet as Janikowski's Overtime kick over New York (Baby Saint's first Raider Game).
I wasn't able to write for a week because the feeling in my stomache, EVERY TIME I THOUGH ABOUT THE RAIDERS, was like sour acid enveloping my entire being.
Today's game has acted like Pepto for my troubled body.
I swear that it was when Darren McFadden caught his Head Coach's attention and asked for the ball, was given it, and went in for six that this game turned on a D-Mac Nickle...
We fans knew that our play calling in the red zone was vanilla and garbage all season...It all changed with a misdirection, untouched saunter into the end zone by Darren Mcfadden. He liked it SO MUCH that he returned for a second trip on a one yard power run that made the score 31-10 with 8 minutes left in the game.
We fans also ganged up on Justin Fargas for not succeeding, then he went out and racked up 107 yards!!! He Smashed and Crashed, making Michael Bush a spectator.
Of course it wasn't all about the offense...
The defense and special teams are the reason that the Raiders won...
Johnie Lee Higgins put the Raiders in the lead going into the Half with an A-Mazing return. It looks like he may be on his way!!!!
Then what about CHRIS Johnson???!!! He is an Al Davis favorite that has made me forget all about DeAngelo Hall.
It was apparent that the Donkey's Game Planned their passing attack at CJ...And he sent then away time and again.
Cutler finished 16-37 and had ZERO TDs and 1 pick...
In fact, Cutler even looked Nnamdi's way in the end, Nnamdi had a sure pick and, even though Asomugha dropped the ball, the Broncos were done.
The defense had beaten down the Donkeys and they may NOT be heard from again!!!
The Raiders are 2-2 in the Division with games against San Diego and Kansas City still on the schedule. Can I get a Let's Go OAKLAND?????

I just need to say that again.
And can we say dropping D-Hall helped us a WHOLE LOT!!
GO CHRIS JOHNSON!!

Imagine IF we didn't trade for Hall:
And drafted DeSean Jackson or Eddie Royal…My two highest rated WRs in this year’s draft!?!?!
But when they start scheming us the way these guys did, and we weren't particularly ready for it, anything can happen."

Let's Go Raiders
Chris Johnson was once the dime corner. Now he’s exceeded Routt and the former Hall for the STARTING SPOT. And even more surprising, HE’S REALLY GOOD. We might finally have that corner that can shutdown opposite Nnamdi.

I was going crazy watching Cable
calling Fargas’ number on all the short yard plays. When is he going to figure out that he needs a short yardage back. Perhaps he found out today that McFadden is a good option in close since he can break outside. It was a very sweet victory today, but am I the only one who asks if Routt has ever made a play since coming to the Raiders. All I can remember is a pass floating to a receiver and Routt trailing the play. But this win was so sweet today that it is no time to complain. I would ask why Russell is being limited to 11 pass attempts a game though. It is clear that my early assessment that Russell might not be very good is completely wrong. He has looked terrific the last two weeks, now Cable has to turn him loose early in the game and loosen up the defenses.
He actually
had a couple good plays his rookie year I think…..
Maybe I’m confusing him w/ Washington. But I think he had some good picks his rookie year.
Win, Lose, or Tie, Raiders til I die!
You are not confusing him
with Washington. Routt indeed had an impressive season when he replaced Washington. He had speed and a nice ability to close and got a few picks. I am quite surprised he has fallen off the way he has.
Anyways, it’s great that we have CJ now and I hope he can keep it up so that the Raiders will NOT make corner back a top priority in the draft.

This win feels soo good!
Here is a quote from our rivals at MHR.
this is an embarassment and unacceptable!!! I had to listen to some poser fader fans at a sports bar in Washington State!!!
What the hell is wrong with this team?? We have lost at home to the conquered fader nation?!!?
I don’t care if we lose the rest of the games this year if it meant we beat the Donkey’s. I am having too much fun calling my Bronco friends. First Cal beats Stanford and now the Raiders win. I actually can’t wait to go to work tommorrow to rub it in my friends face.

enjoy it 76, the way Denver played, they didn't deserve to win.....
till next year.

We aren't seeing the playoffs this year so
this is our Super Bowl.
Now if only SJSU beat Fres State to grab that bowl game...
sigh…

A Whole New Feeling
I’m going to the KC game next week. I hate KC more than the Broncos or Chargers. But the way the Raiders had been playing lately, I was getting the sick feeling they wouldn’t even be able to beat the pathetic Chiefs. But now I’m feeling it. I can’t wait ‘til next week. The way the Raiders looked today, I’m even looking forward to the following week’s Charger’s game. I know I shouldn’t be thinking too far ahead, but the thought of beating the Broncos, Chiefs, and Chargers in successive weeks… Man that would be sweet. It wouldn’t matter if the Raiders didn’t win any more games this year.
I am in the same boat!!!

I want us to win those too, but I also don't
I agree we need a couple more wins to improve upon our record of last year. But we don’t want to win too many to where we don’t get someone like Crabtree in the draft. Let’s beat the Chiefs and Chargers and I’ll be fine if we finish 5-11. At this point 4-12 after beating the Chiefs is fine with me. Sweep the Chiefs and become respectable in the weakest division in football would make me jolly as a roger (play on words of the phrase “Jolly Roger”)
But let’s just think of now and our demolishing win.

How about a salute for our much-maligned quarterback?
Russell looked pretty good out there Sunday. Get that dirt off him, boys. He’s not dead.
I'm here to talk about the past.
and here everybody was calling him a bust
0 sacks, 0 picks, only one incompletion, and a TD pass. Those are great numbers for a QB. True it was against the worst defense in the league (if I’m not mistaken), but Russell is definitely playing much better than he was.
The big story was Chris Johnson’s domination in coverage and the O-Line not giving up a sack.

Yeah
and where are all the Brady Quinn fans now with their “we should have picked Quinn over Russell” rants?

Congratulations Oakland fans.
Your team played well and deserved the win. I was especially happy for Russell. The article I read on this site showed him in a light I had never seen before. He seems like a fine young man and I wish him all the best, as long as it doesn’t involve anymore wins over the Broncos (lol).
If this be Hell, let us make the most of it!

Well Done, Guys....
Solid effort, football the way it was meant to be played. Perhaps now Al will realize it isn;t the name recognition that gets W’s, it’s skilled football players.
Congrats on a dominating performance….
Until next year……

Thanks For The Classy Congrats:
I think that we are just as satisfied after yesterday’s win as you were after winning in Week 1.
Cheers,
Saint

Let me add my congratulations
Another Bronco fan here. That was a great game – I thought both teams played hard. The Raiders made more plays, and deserved the win (need I say it?). Jamarcus Russell was great, and I think he put to rest any doubts about being a good one. Here’s to the AFC West, and the NFL. What a great sport.

Nice to see you Bronco Fans taking it like men
or women, got to go for equality. We split the series this year, both games being blowouts. Can’t wait for next year, hopefully then we’ll see games like last year. Competitive games.

I think that next year...
…other teams are going to be afraid of the AFC West!
If this be Hell, let us make the most of it!

Why not.
The Chargers still have a lot of talent. You have that solid D and a good core of offensive players, especially in the back field. The Broncos are very young and suffered a bushel basket of injuries but most of those guys will be back. Even the Chiefs are looking better. And the AFC West has a long tradition of superior football.
Sure, we’ve all got our problem areas, but who doesn’t?

The Crying in Denver......
I logged on to the Denver Post blog site for the Nags this morning….OH BOY!….I could hear the crying and whining on the West Coast!
You guys--I tied to tell you that great young core of players!
I just wish you hadn’t come out on us. If us Broncos and the bolts keep losing—is there a chance that you could win the division?
The best defense is a good defense!
And last week's young players. Yes!
Don't tease me...That's mean... :)
