Watching the Titans and Vince Young it makes me wonder why we do not do something similar as they did last year. They sat Young the entire year, started a veteran QB and had a succesful season. I do not understand what there is to lose by doing this for the Raiders. Obviously JR is not learning and not making much improvement with the on the job training. I really think that this is what we should have done this year and we had the opportunitty to do it, with Jeff Garcia. I don’t really care that maybe he didn’t look great during camp or the preseason, there is really very little chance that he would have done worse or had us in a worse situation than we are currently in.

Now, none of us know whether or not JR will ever be a quality QB in the NFL, but we all know that right now he is not qualified to be a starter in this league. I heard an interview with him the other day and I could not understand one thing he said, and I’m not even joking. It made him look very unintelligent, after hearing that I can understand why he is not improving. Maybe that is inaccurate but if he cant even communicate in english then what can we expect. I lived in the south, so at first I was thinking maybe it is just a LA accent, but after listening for a minute that was no accent that I have ever heard in the south, it seemed like he was just mumbling.

Another thing that really makes me mad about watching this Niner game, is that I am actually able to watch it. The 49ers are really not much better than the Raiders, the Titans have been terrible this season. How in the hell did the 49ers sell out this game? I see stuff like this and it really has me worried about the future of the Raider’s in Oakland. The last Raider’s game we had a crowd of about 40,000, this is about 28,0000 seats short of a sell out. Our fan base seems to be eroding and it doesnt seem that anything is being done about it. We will not have another home game televised this season which in my books is a real problem. I have season tix so I will see the games, but it is not a good sign that all we will hear about on radio and in the news is how the Raider’s can’t sell out.
