RaiderDamus Sees The Future Week 11: Raiders vs. Vikings

Good news, Vikings secondary was horrid before Chris Cook was reported out and Antoine Winfield was lost for the season. The loss of Seymour is a greater impact as Palmer would have been able to slice and dice them if he had time anyway. More bad news, this may cause more heavier blitz pressure from the Vikings against a not-so-mobile Palmer and he may rush his throws. With that said the game will be very close but WE WIN, WE WIN 24-21!

“CP3” Returns to start the 3rd and leaves with the team at 38-10 and well in command…

4th Quarter in comes my boy Pryor for his turn at the helm…Puts up one “TD” via the run and another threw the air to “DHB” I think???

Raiders 52-17 “V”!!!

Vikings have been tough at home. AP will get his yards and wreak some havoc. In the end though this game will be won by the Raiders because they have the better QB, and Palmer will make the plays when it counts.

if we can manage to stop AP and exploit their horrible secondary, it could become a blowout. but if we don’t, it’ll be a three to seven point game till the very end.
I say 24-10, though it could be 37-7 or 17-14 as well. if our D fucks it up they could even stun us like 21-14 or some…
but let’s hope, that it’ll go down as we all expect it will be.

Seeings we like to wind the clock when we have the lead, as opposed to running up the score.

this game feels like a low scoring game to me. I feel that Palmer will get sacked, and I believe the Raiders may commit a lot of penalties…….

But I hope not.

spreading the ball around to no less than eight different targets, and adding to his already gaudy big play percentage.

It’ll amount to how well we stop AP and Ponder using the breathing room Minnesota’s use of the inverted bone with two big, athletic and mobile blockers finding gaps. I’m afraid AP will gash us for a couple big gainers in this one, and maybe two big scores as well. We’ll have to score on most of our drives to win.

31-27 Raiders. Palmer puts up 350 and three scores in the air, and Taiwan Jones gets his first TD in season action similar to the one we saw against NO in preseason.

Last year they turned the corner and had a 500 season for the first time is a long time. This year, with as many personnel changes (including coaching), they have managed to weather the storm and stay competitive. THERE IS NO DOUBT THEY HAVE HAD THEIR INCONSISTENCIES, BUT SO HAS 95% OF THE LEAGUE. This Sunday’s game is a pivotal game, its a statement game. A win will give them 2in a row, it will tell doubters that they are true contenders, it will begin the process of separation between them and the dysfunctional Afc West, and it will show their fans that they are serious about contending for the SB this year. If they lose, it will prove Warren Sapp that the Raiders can’t handle success, and that all west coast teams are soft. And most importanatly, will mark another dissapointing season to this longtime Raider fan.

But come on Raider Nation, you know better. Even our slaughters are victories of just under 10 points. Simply put, we don’t win big this year. I say 24-17, but it really isn’t as close as that score indicates. The Raiders should win this game, in the end the score will not matter. Here is to coming out of this both victorious and healthy.

Raiders

It is time for an arse whipping!

41-17 Raiders.

This guy is a monster still #1 back in the league IMO just cus DMC keeps getting injured but otherwise I think DMC is better. We win this game because we finally have an elite offense and our defense is really good when we stay disciplined and everyone does their job. I say Palmer throws for 350 yards and 3 Tds bush and tj get a combined effort of 220 yards and 2 Tds the only way we lose this game is if we let AP run wild like he can but I don’t think we will Hue is the man and he’ll have our team ready he is the coach of our future hopefully he stays for a long time at least 10 years how crazy would that be for us ? Lol as for bresnahan Idk I’m think Jack Del Rio anyone?? I see us being a playoff contender for how ever long Hue is here and to all the people that talk shit about him really just stfu this guy is awesome how could you not like him

I cant predict a blow out, our team always keeps it close or gets blown out, its strange.Palmer has a great day 3TD 1INT, Bush gets a goaline TD but doesnt repeat his SD performance.

Hopefully the Raiders’ D shows for this game. I don’t fully trust this Raiders’ D due to how many penalties it takes and how inconsistent it is.

I wanna see Raiders mix their rush and pass to spread out the Vikings’ D out.

I don’t want to bring another Campbell vs. Palmer debate into discussion, but it seems that Palmer has a better job managing the clock than Campbell.

Sorry if I made any of you guys mad. I just wanted to say something really quick and be on my way.

The Raiders can place the franchise tag on Bush to the tune of $7.7 million or so and keep him around for another season, attempt to sign him to a long-term extension or simply let him walk.

If Bush isn’t franchise-tagged, he would be forced to choose between negotiating a new contract with the Raiders or seeking the riches of free agency.

It’s no secret that Bush enjoys playing for the Raiders, and the Raiders value his all-around skills.

In the end, Bush might be forced to weigh his comfort with the Raiders vs. an opportunity to showcase his talents as a starter for another team.

An unusual vote in confidence from their hometown newspaper in their team:

I’m going to assume this is just for the morale of their readers.

Before the Draft the major speculation was we would be taking that Kapernikernick from NV…Than “SF” moved up and jumped in to trump us…(If Even True??)…We selected “Wiz-II” instead…WoW!!..Now has that ever worked out to our advantage…Kapernikunicaback seemed to be somewhat of a flop last I looked…

During the off season all that talk was going around about who would be our next “HC” and than finally word came down the Hue was promoted…Thank Heaven!!!…I just can’t imaging all that this team has gone threw with someone else at the helm..

Word was we were strapped for $$$ and would be dead in the “FA” market…WoW!!…If ya take a look at all we have done threw trades/"FA"s n Sup-Draft this team was prolley the most active…

The loss of Namndi was suppose to cripple us…Well the injuries certainly have but Namndi looks like a shadow of himself when he was here…

Zack/Gallery were going to leave our “O” desecrated…LoL!!….Their loss has been a blessing and may yet produce a few 3rds next season…

“KC” n “SD” were the clear cut leaders of the west and we would fight it out for the bottom with that “Donkey”…Yikes!!…Now we’re on top with that “Donkey” sniffin our butts!!!

Than more recently the franchise was in the middle of a “Take Over” and being Pirated by Hue!!…Funny that one be now!!

Yup!!…Swallow all that vomit from them’s damn "Mediot"s and all’s ya get’s is a damn Belly Full Of Crap!!!

But never mind..Some will just be ready to eat again as soon as the next helping is dished out!!!
