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!

Prediction
If the Raiders come out for their first possession of the second half and go three and out, you’re seeing Gradkowski. They’ll pull Russell to send a message to him.
They would have too:

I think Garcia should be startng for the Raiders right now.
Nothing flashy, but he knows how to win ball games.
The more you try to erase me, the more that I appear.
Basically, I have decided that the Raiders are a playoff team with an average quarterback.
I mean Zach Miller can get open all day, if someone could just get him the ball. The defense has been solid. Jamarcus Russell is single handedly keeping this team from winning right now.

Its not his lack of sensing pressure that bothers me.

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.
Let’s pick up this third down.

That wasn't a bad call
Could break big. Even if it doesn’t it will likely help on the FG.. And keeps away from the sack and the pick. I liked the call.

Well, no one is a bust from the get go
But this is his 22nd NFL start. You have to start to show something by this point and I ain’t seeing much.
It’s a shame because the last few games of last year and the first half of the CHargers game he looked like he was steadily improving. Since the 3rd quarter Monday night though, he’s been DE-evolving.
he's inconsistent
it’s not in his skill or ability. it’s his mindset.

I think we should be running more RB screens and simple passes to RB out of the backfield.
And we need to get more creative with our run plays also. Nothing huge, but we run off guard every play it seems.
The more you try to erase me, the more that I appear.
This game feels a lot like the Chargers-Raiders game of last week.
Only this week we are the chargers and they are the Raiders. They have thoroughly outplayed us, but haven’t been able to pull away at all.

wow a 37 second drive
7-9 just turned into worst season since 06.
It’s simple, load the run and double miller. Everyone else can be left uncovered because Russell will overthrow, underthrow, or if thrown properly will be dropped. It sounds like I’;m making fun of this but it’s actually the truest thing in the NFL.

Dear Al Davis,
Stop pining for Daryl Lamonica and Ken Stabler. Russell is neither. Stop trying to force the offense on the QB.
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.
how much time did he have

Gradkowski had a couple decent games for TB. Since then, he’s been awful.

I dunno.
He shined better than JR the few times I’ve seen him play for us.

I just can't stand selfish fucktards.
Even more than useless overpaid QB’s.
Win, Lose, or Tie, Raiders til I die!
at least he can do what Russell was supposed to
which is manage a game.

I'm with you on that
Growing up in WI my whole life and picking all my teams since I was 6, (raiders too) I’m a huge fan. At least I’ll have a qb to cheer for this year. May he never retire!!

He was pulled down from behind
see above
PREPAREDNESS_Because those goddamn zombies aren’t going to kill themselves
Cassel has been taking throwing lessons from watching JR
Since JR throws everything high, he’s throwing it low.

Act now, with every incomplete pass we're giving away free penalties
Supplies are (not) limited.

The possibilities are endless
High pass. Drink! Has to call a timeout because he doesn’t get the team to the line of scrimmage. Drink! Not prepared with an audible with they blitz. Drink!

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.

wow
what a great tackle by the all pro
we seem to have gotten over that HURDLE
"TuLoRocks2008 had the most comments I've seen in any game thread this year (322)...Can such a feat be eclipsed?" ..... Bring it on!!
finally some luck goes our way
tied a half time with some momentum and we couldnt play much worse than thath

well we are very lucky to be tied at 3
lets go out in the 2nd half and play much better

"TuLoRocks2008 had the most comments I've seen in any game thread this year (322)...Can such a feat be eclipsed?" ..... Bring it on!!
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
SIIIIIIIIIIGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
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.
why did we get rid of Jeff Garcia again??

"TuLoRocks2008 had the most comments I've seen in any game thread this year (322)...Can such a feat be eclipsed?" ..... Bring it on!!
Cause Garcia actually though we could win with him behind center. Could you believe that? Thats why he had to go, he was delusional.
Cable Bumaye! Raiders Bumaye!
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.
so we have no starter and no bakcup
Maybe we need Walter back.
Win, Lose, or Tie, Raiders til I die!
Wow
1st bad decision: not throw it into the endzone.
2nd bad decision: throwing it on the same side of the field as namdi
Ammo
The Manhattan Project
The Mississippi Bullet
KiD CuRRy
Stack Jack
Beans
Biceps Buike
TMNT
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.
yea but he couldnt
even make an easy screen pass earlier

Because he has the arm for it
just not the Finesse or intelligence.
