Half Time Report: The Who To Play The Super Bowl Half Time Show in Miami

That is the best news that I've heard in a little over an hour!

Because the Oakland Raiders looked out-coached and out manned.

The Cowboy System was just too much for the hapless Raiders. Raider Nation, they look worse with Gradkowski. He cannot evade the rush and his throws were late, if at all.

Do we go with Frye in the second half? Probably not, but, man it was tough to watch the backs come out strong from the chute only to have Gradkowski throw up on his shoes.

Miles Austin has already amassed 130 yards on 6 catches and a touchdown.

The Raider's top receiver is Darren McFadden with 2 catches for 20 yards.

Enough Said!

Unless this team is willing to open up the playbook and get a little "Wild" there is no hope for this game. NONE.

Sorry, fans, but this is how I feel.

Frye won't go in

if anyone goes in other than Bruce, it’ll be Russell. And he gives us less of a chance.

Offensive Line

Yeah, it hasn’t been good in protecting the quarterback. Gradkowski has had to rush some throws; however, there were some throws he should have been able to make.

It would have been interesting to see if DHB could handle a deep cross

Heyward-Bey

That pass to him was low and away. Not even Randy Moss could’ve caught that one.

it's his rookie year

hard to call him a bust. He has work to do, I admit. But I’m not calling him a bust yet.

Agree it is far to early to call him a bust

All I want is to see one play by him before the season over that makes me think he could possible be a stud.

I think Grad looks a lot like Russell did

an even distribution of blame between him and the WR’s…the Wr’s could make more plays but they shouldn’t have to make an amazing play on every throw. I say put Frye in, because well why the hell not!

Well yes he is, but throw him in there...

Are we afraid of hurting Russell’s feelings? I am not saying Cable will do this. I just say might as well try it.

It always goes from ugly to uglier

No pass rush, poor tackling, dropped balls, and Bruce is looking worse than Jamarcus.

Someone please help me! I am stuck being a Raiders fan and it sucks week in and week out. Is there a reabilitation program I can enter? Is there a therapy group? Maybe a Raiders anonomous program?

I live, breath and breed Silver and Black!

It's not pretty, but this is why Grad is in there.....

…mobility, ability to adjust….WE CAN WIN THIS GAME!!!

by TruEnuff on Nov 26, 2009 3:26 PM PST reply actions   0 recs

For the record-

Gradkowski was no worse, nor much better than Jamarcuss. His rating will be better because he didn’t throw the standard 2 INTs that Russell always throws. It was pretty obvious that there was little preparation for this game on both sides of the ball. A little film study and the Raiders could have closed out many of Dallas’ short passes rather than imploding. And like always, the O-line left the QB and RBs on thir own.
