Around SBN: Chan Sung Jung Wins Thriller Over Dustin Poirier

Game Thread: Oakland Raiders Visit The Kansas City Chiefs 9-20-09: Someone's Season Will End Today: 0-2 is a Death Knell, 0-3 Is A Walking Corpse!

In case you Missed RaiderWay's Break Down Here It Is.

I heard on the radio this week that only 14% of teams that start out 0-2 make the playoffs, and that nobody has started out 0-3 and made the playoffs...Ever!

I then did a quick Google search and found this from the USA Today, circa 2007 (If anyone wants to look it up as of 2009, be my guest):

Only five teams (out of 59) since 2000 have rebounded from a 0-2 start to make the playoffs. Since the NFL expanded to a 16-game schedule in 1978, 26 teams that started 0-2 reached the playoffs.

That is MUCH worse than 14%, in fact it is only between an 8-9% chance.

With the Playoffs and Super Bowl being the goal for every player that straps on a helmet and sacrifices his body on Sundays, going 0-2 is NOT an option for the Silver and Black!

The early start CANNOT be an excuse!

The Raiders SHOULD dominate BOTH sides of the line, and barring crazy plays (Ala Denver last week) this game will fall squarely on the shoulders of JaMarcus Russell. He needs to step up NOW.

A win today will set the team up to go 2-1 in the Division after 3 games with revenge on their minds the next time they meet the Chargers!

Today is the first step toward erasing the stench of rotting flesh that has invaded our locker room early and often over the past 6 seasons and returning the Raiders to their rightful place in the AFC West! On Top BABY!

I am PUMPED!!! Go RAIDERS!

That was the best feeling about Monday. The team looked like a “Functional” Family for the first time in half a decade and we could all see and feel it.

This is just an awful performance by JaMarcus so far

He can’t hit open guys. Other teams don’t fear him or our wide-outs so they load the box to stop our run. And then he burns timeouts.

This is painful.

Russell can be a decent game manager who throws 20-25 times a game and limits mistakes. You have a running game that can get 200 yards per game and you try to force the QB to throw 370 billion times a game. Unreal.

I'm officially a Vikings fan this year

because to me the Raiders don’t exist. The Raiders I know would never let this happen. Until the Raiders are reinstated back into the league, I’m rooting for my second fave team, the Vikings.

Go Vikings!!!!!

Since JR throws everything high, he’s throwing it low.

Nice game management, Haley

The only three teams in the league who could give this game away right now are the Lions, Rams and Raiders.

But nice blow by the Chiefs!

Hey, let’s keep it inbounds with just a few secs on the clock. Thank you, Chiefs, for playing down to our level today.

By the way

Kevin Kolb, making his first career start is 11 for 18 for 157 yards and a touchdown

Matthew Stafford, making his 2nd career start, is 6 for 8 for 56 yards and a touchdown

JaMarcus Russell is 3 for 12 for 42 yards

Unless he magically steps out of a phone booth in the second half...

….and plays like Superman, you won’t hear much from me in that department again.

I refuse to write him off completely for a few games yet, but my vocal defense will go WAY down.

Cause Garcia actually though we could win with him behind center. Could you believe that? Thats why he had to go, he was delusional.

Based on how he played in the preseason...

…he wuldn’t have done much better than Russell.

Garcia’s tank is empty, he just won’t admit it.

Gradkowski is the better option at backup.

It's also worth noting...

…that the Lions are keeping things simple for Stafford: 6 completions for 56 yards. Short, easy to execute passes to build confidence.

Davis/Cable insist on Russell throwing 20+ yard bombs every damn play.

even make an easy screen pass earlier
