The one thing about the Raider defense
Poor tackling. No matter the personnel or co-ordinator….I’ll never get it.
"'Tis a bird I love, with its brooding note, And the trembling throb in its mottled throat; There's a human look in its swelling breast, And the gentle curve of its lowly crest; And I often stop with the fear I feel-- He runs so close to the rapid wheel."

I think tackling comes down to effort
Which probably tells the story right there.

How do you give up a 3rd and 20?
That’s rhetorical by the way.

Pathetic defensive effort so far
Forget if Gradkowski can help the offense or not, what the hell happened to the defense?

Palmer has time to eat a 5 course meal back there
And then he’s just playing pitch and catch

Overthrowing a wide open Louis Murphy.

Nnamdi’s shutting his man down (of course) but no one else can cover shit apparently.

how much is shilenz getting paid compared to DHB?
by RocklinRaiderfan on Nov 22, 2009 2:12 PM PST reply actions 0 recs
Chaz doesn't make much -- made 346K or something last year
Probably more this year, but a lot less than DHB.

In their pregame show, they asked if JaMarcus Russell was done in one of their segments. The problem was that they spelled it “Russel” instead of “Russell” and I found that hilarious. I don’t know. I’m a little weird, I guess.

- Gradkowski has completed 60 percent of his passes for 80 yards and a touchdown without a pick. Surely, no one can complain.
- Fargas, Bush and McFadden have carried it a combined five times, but they have 30 yards despite the low carry number.
- Branch has eight solo tackles and a sack.
