08-12-10: Oakland Raiders Preseason Game #1: IN Dallas
by Raymond St. Martin (Saint) on Aug 12, 2010 4:30 PM PDT
Email
PrintIn just an hour and a half, the helmets will collide and the hits will be real...even if the game isn't.
I have as many questions about the 2010 Raiders as the rest of you, and here are 10 that I want answered tonight:
1) Is the Oakland Defense the reason that the offense has looked terrible in practice, or is the Offensive Line really bad?
2) Can Nick Miller impress in 2010 as well as he did in 2009?
3) How will special teams play?
4) Have Bryant and Shaughnessy got their man strength yet?
5) Will Langston Walker get a penalty?
6) Who is Campbell's main target? (My money is on Zach Miller)
7) How will Bush respond to being the #1 back?
8) Will "Ro-Mac" take care of middle of the field?
9) Will the offense look different under Hue Jackson?
10) What are teh current rotations?
I'll come back after the game and break down what I saw and see if these questions were answered at all.
Go RAIDDDEERRSS!!!!!

That’s the problem with drinking, I thought, as I poured myself a drink. If something bad happens you drink in an attempt to forget; if something good happens you drink in order to celebrate; and if nothing happens you drink to make something happen
I think tonight’s game would fall on under the last part of this.

McClain got his one and only strong arm tackle.

How often was Houston in the QBs face? Like Pressure?

Shaugnessy, Seymour, Kelly, Houston?
Or instead of Kelly… HENDO!!!

It wasn't pressure sacks, more like coverage sacks because Romo lagged to find a WR.

But he looked solid in moving the tackle guarding him and good run stuffing prescence.

Stevie Brown and Boyd were easily the most impressive of our young secondary players.
Stevie Brown knocked the shit out of Ogletree right before Boyd’s pick.

They played well.

ya i heard huff was converting to corner
the way cj was playing i wouldnt be apposed to it. mike mitchell was ballin i think he could take over.
didnt like what i saw
not one bit at all…..
campbell showed nothing special
bush didnt really run that well, would have liked to see brennan
pass defense was shoddy, but run d was doing pretty good relatively
HOWEVER!
i did really like michael bennett
and really did like that pick 6……
The whole defense was great
Campbell was decent, decent enough for us to win 7ish games. We saw last year how goo we were with a average QB. He did enough and it was just his 1st game and we didnt have Chaz

most likely
yea i was probably reading too much into it
and considering i wasnt able to actually watch the game and what happened until the second half
but yea i suppose ur right i was trying to read the whole season in one game
It's enough to like in the Post-Jamarcus era

they werent forcing anything with campbell
letting him get some nice short throws in. working on his rhythm and timing.
Campbell was ok - very stable
Bennett was awesome, but Lamarr was off the scale.

I agree. Witten got open too easily.

From what I saw, I am now turning in favor of Bennett over Rock now.
He can see the holes and bounce outside easier for some reason. Also he didn’t get caught from behind on a screen by a 3rd team NT.

its tough to choose between rock and bennet.
bennet is speedy and rock is a nice powerback. i think he could be our next zac crockett
Over at Dallas blog they say that Romo said that we gameplanned on them, that's why we won.
And some say that our starters played most/all of the game… lol dumb Cow fans.

Got my recap done for SBN Bay Area.
Been fun, guys. Hope you didn’t mind a 49ers fan in your midst.

Overall I give it a C- but then again the defense played solid as I had hoped.
I don’t understand why they had Lamar Houston in the game in the final drive if he is a projected starter and if he got 2 quick sacks in the 1st half. I think we saw all we needed to see personally.

I heard that he begged to get back in. Plus they just gave him DT/NT reps.
He’s just an animal.
The RaiderLaker
At the risk of injury the staff should tell that hoss to slow down.
Stevie Brown and he were the two most impressive Raiders IMO tonight and it wasn’t even close.

Ummm, I was on the sidelines... I heard, mr. smarty pants...
(but I really heard it trough his warrior spirit, I knew he maybe asked but regardless, I know he was more than willing to kick ass)
What DE’s do you guys have, I haven’t heard of them. only heard of Willis and Franklin the NT, and Clemens CB. Get ready to get beat niner fan!!! :P
The RaiderLaker
Well.
I’d have to say the 49ers line is at least on par, probably a little more proven at the moment. Justin Smith and Aubrayo Franklin. Statistically, Franklin did what a 3-4 NT does better than any in the league and didn’t make the Pro Bowl. Justin Smith is Justin Smith. Sopoaga sucks though.

Wow, I clicked on Justin Smith's stats... lets just say you guys need to draft a DE next year....
The RaiderLaker
Nvm, I saw the stupid SB nation stats that took me to his 03' stats.
He’s actually pretty good.
The RaiderLaker
Pretty good?
He never stops going. He’s one of the better 3-4 ends in the league. Justin Smith’s 35 hurries ranked 2nd in the NFL among DLs/LBs, behind only Jared Allen. Justin Smith’s 88% stop rate vs. the run ranked 10th among DLs. He is seriously the epitome of what you want in a defensive lineman, sacks aside. Remember, in a 3-4, sacks are more for the outside linebackers.

And in no way am I making a Niners > Raiders argument.
Just sayin. :]
