Once Again The Oakland Raiders Are Playing The Most Important Game Of The Season
It seems to me that when a football team, or any "team" for that matter, spends a prolonged time in an abyss it will take a consistent track record for their fans and others around them, perhaps more importantly, themselves, to feel comfortable going into a game.
With the strong rhythm between Jason Campbell, Hue Jackson and Darren McFadden carrying the team for the first six games and now finding itself nonexistent in week eight this will be a tough week for the Raiders.
It is now the Carson, Jackson, TJ and TJ show. What that will produce is anyone's guess, but, we will find out on Sunday.
We will find out if the Raiders can place their cleats on the throats of a Divisional Opponent that stumbles into the Coliseum in a daze of sloppy play and haze of controversy.
We will find out what Taiwan Jones has. This kid is ready to turn on the jets and GO. If he holds onto the ball and let's the holes develop he may just have a DAY against Denver's aggressive defense.
We will find out what this defense is made of. There will be NO excuse for letting the Broncos net over 150 yards. That has to be the goal. Period.
The Bye came at a great time for this team as this was a real gut check and reorganization period.
Let's take a look at some of the key match-ups:
Darius Heyward-Bey vs Champ Bailey:
Bailey is up to his old tricks again, or rather, still. He is sticking to the oppositions number one threat and has been doing a good job.
Unless TJ Houshmanzadeh establishes himself as Carson Palmer's primary target I would expect that DHB would be lined up against #24 all day. Heyward-Bey has the size and speed to hurt Champ and his hands are coming around. IF Darius can win his match-up with Bailey, the Raiders will win this game.
Bush and Jones vs Denver's Rush Defense:
It looks more and more like we will be seeing Taiwan Bush lined up in the backfield as the primary ball carriers. It is a downgrade, but most teams would love to have the Oakland Raider downgrade as their first team!
One thing that Denver does well is stop the run. In fact, they are 7th in the NFL in average yards per rush against at 3.9. This could also be a product of teams running out the clock against them as their pass defense has allowed 14 TDs (2nd Worst and an 8.1 YPA (t-5th Worst), bit, I do not expect the Raiders to just run all over Denver.
Pass Rush vs Tim Tebow:
Yes, Tim Te-Bow, will be starting for the Broncos this week. And if you haven't heard, his last start was pretty bad. He was 18-39 for 172 yards, 1 TD (with 8 minutes left in the 4th), 1 INT, a 56.8 rating, 3 fumbles and was sacked 7 times. Ugly.
Now, this beaten up quarterback will be playing in front of a sold out Oakland Coliseum that wants to see him put to bed for the season and a defense that can be very "In your face" and put you "on your ass".
The front four of Jarvis Moss, Richard Seymour, Tommie Kelly and LaMarr Houston have made many quarterbacks nervous in 2011 and the addition of Aaron Curry has strengthened the middle of the Oakland defense and freed up Rolando McClain ot make some plays. If things are clicking for this unit, it will be back to back bad weeks for Tea-Bow. In fact, it may just end his career as an NFL Quarterback and hasten his transition to flanker.
Wild Cards:
Marcel Reece - If Carson Palmer has figured out his timing with Mr. Reece on the flags, screens and wheels, then Marcel can have a huge game in the second level against the Denver defense.
Matt Prater: Prater is a perfect 18-18 on kick-offs going for touchbacks. If this game comes down to field position and Janikowski is unable to go for the Raiders, then the Broncos have an advantage with the heavy footed kicker against whoever the Raiders decide to go with. Maybe it will be Kyle Boller?

As Hue gets even more exotic with his Taiwan Bush package, Palmer should be sewing the field with his spiraling seeds
One thing’s for certain, whether it’s a RB or Tebow, Denver runs a lot up the middle – between the Guards - and that means we do very well if Seymour, Kelly and Ro (or Blackstock) do well.

Lately we have not been tackling all that well
and Teabow does not go down easily. This poor tackling needs to stop starting today, no more of this arm tackle B.S. we need to drive these guys into the Coliseum turf period!

I'm sure their spirit is most willing j-man but even with our injuries we match-up better. The only way we lose is sloppy execution
and, of course with the Raiders, being (unduly) overconfident and looking past Sunday to Thursday’s game with StD.

I'm not going to go a start predicting some blowout.
The Raiders have yet to do that this season. And Palmer is still unproven with this offense. And McFadden is out. And it’s not like we played the Broncos particularly great in week 1.
I’d love a blowout, for once, from our team, but I’m still a bit shell shocked from the Chiefs game.
Unfortunately, such admonisions are lost on many who pay them little heed

Yeah I think I'm officially done with throwing out fantasy scores
I’m usually completely wrong, lol.
I’ve said this before, but , again, the only team that can beat oakland on Sunday is Oakland. If we get our penalties and emotions under control, and Palmer manages the game and gets comfortable throwing, we win easily. BUT if we lose our composure, get penalized for meaningless Personal Fouls, and PI, we force throws to “make a play” (INT), and get overly crazy (some might say wreckless) with the trickery and play calling, we will yet again be dumbfounded and re-assessing our position on this season.
I’ve felt weird these past couple weeks, like we’ve stepped in the twilight zone and I don’t know what Hue’s doing, or how this team feels. ALOT of changes, things still settling. Has our identity changed? Our Drive? Our goals? Please please Raiders, re-establish this for me so I can get through a week without feeling like some kind of lost kid…
No McFadden sux, but no big deal this game...
Bush has gashed the broncos in his career… We don’t need McFadden to re-injure the foot 4 days before We head to SD for what could be a 1st place game… We talk a lot about Palmer getting the groove… How about Ndukwe(polly spelled wrong)… I think he is a stud and will cause problems on Safety blitzes… He has had more time to come around too in the bye week… So has Murphy and Mike Michelle… Exciting to see… RAIDER NATION!!…

yeah sack, intercept, and force fumbles from tebow=WIN
not to mention score on denvers defense on almost every possession.
NOT really a blue-print in my opinion. more of a statement of how good Detroit is. we have to play them in a few weeks.
The Lions are an excellent team
Atlanta was a game where they played poorly and they still only lost by 7 and had every chance to win. The Falcons are good too

I think Bush will be the primary ballcarrier for the Raiders
I don’t mind if Jones gets some touches, but I expect the Raiders to bash the Broncos with a dose of Bush.
@WorldBLee
Raiders want Blood
If anybody thinks that Oakland is looking past Denver might not understand the anger that is brewing for getting shut out at home. The Raiders will come out wanting to rip the Broncs heads off. If anything they might be to amped up and will need to come down a bit. I dont think overconfidence will be a problem. Palmer is 1-3 against Denver so Im sure he isnt looking past them.
There is no reason why the Raiders should lose this game.
But the reality is that it might not be a pretty win. At the minimum it is going to take at least one game for the offense to work the kinks out, maybe two. For those of you who have been in panic mode lately, try not to overreact to Sundays games if it is won by the defense and special teams. This Raiders team is a contender. Also remember this. The last time the Raiders went to the Superbowl they were 4-4 at the half way mark. San Diego was 6-2 and picked to win it all. Let’s sit back and enjoy the show. For what its worth I think the Raiders win 28-10. Go Raiders!!!
All right guys
first of all, I commend you for not blocking me, despite being a Broncos fan. Raiders fans are better than Chiefs fans and Chargers fans, I must say. However, I still have a hatred for the silver and black and hope my Broncos play their best game of the season. Tebow needs receivers to make plays for him, he actually threw some pretty good balls in the Lions’ game but I digress. This will be a hard-hitting, intense game on a muddy field no less, I just hope Denver is tough enough to go into the Black Hole and emerge victorious, we shall see.

The “Kiss” will live on in infamy!!!…I will make damn sure of that!!!
Coming off a game where we scored 0 points it's hard to predict blowing out anyone
The level of play from the quarterback position is unknown at this point, how many INTS this game 0,3,6? Bush has carried the team on occasion other times he’s been stopped, like the 3 shots at a TD from the one yard line, against KC. Taiwan Jones has shown a couple of flashes but his physique is like a wide receiver – he does not look durable as a running back. McFadden is by far our best player and game breaker, without him the offense is ordinary. I’m looking for Hue in this game to possibly earn his offensive guru stature and put together a real game plan – not just gimmicky gadget plays. If we can run on them, keep running, don’t try to fool them, over power them, that is Raider football. Like everyone else I was feeling great about this season until JC went down, then DMC got injured and the wheels fell off. Now we pretty much have to re-build the offense mid-season, that is hard to do, but against a weak Broncos team the odds makers have us as 8 point favorites so there is hope.

This Is Funny As Hell...Moss Who Played With Tebow In College As Well As A "Donkey"...
"He’s a good athlete, Man," Moss said. "He’s a strong dude. He can definitely hurt you with his legs."
When asked about whether Tebow can hurt a team with his throwing arm, Moss paused for 13 seconds.
"Uh, I don’t want to answer that question because I really want to … Never mind. I can’t answer that question," Moss said.
Watching Tebow's last couple of games I can see why, he is wildly inaccurate, even with some of the
more basic throws.

Which is weird
Because looking at last years game in Oakland, he really did make some amazing throws. Is it possible he’s gotten worse?

Absolute must win game tomorrow. We lose this one and we're out of the playoffs. Some may argue that I'm overstating
the importance of one game and that Palmer is still adjusting and DMC isn’t playing, etc. But given our opponent, the home field advantage, and the superiority of our matchups despite our injuries, the devastation to morale and Raider honor would strike a blow from which we would not recover.

We played horrible in our last division game and a bad performance would certainly have to have very damaging effects on the confidence of the team moving forward especially with the amount of mid season roster moves. With the division in a situation where there is a 3 way tie for the lead falling a game behind could be catastrophic.

Losing would be bad…NO doubt…But NOT the end of the season…Our team would just have to lick their wounds and suck it up 4 days later against a team with which we are prolley still tied…“SD” for all practical purposes will fall to “GB” and be 4-n-4…
On the other hand should we win and go into “SD” 4 days later at 5-n-3 while their 4-n-4 it will be a huge boost to our confidence and prolley overall energy…They would be coming off back to back losses and already on their hells with us in their face…That would be a very definite advantage for us and the most likely scenario that we will face……
In all likelihood the AFCW looks like this:
“KC”…5-n-3
Raiders…5-n-3

ex-Bengali, CP fan and new Raiduh convert...
I’d love to see CP throw 300 yds, 4 TD and 0 Int but that’s asking a lot for someone who will still have some rust.
That said, CP will be fine and I expect he will get better as the ganme progresses.
Remember, CP is an extraordinary timing passer and depends on WRs running precise routes and CP knowing those pass routes and the WR speed.
In Cincy the last 3-4 years, the diva cancer known as Chad O-stinko began running his own routes that led to more INTs for CP. The Owner/GM (Brown) and Head Coach (Lewis) supported O-stinko’s theatrics as positive publicity while ignoring the impact on the field and in the locker room.
As an ex-Bengali who grew tired of mikeyBoy Brown & Lewis screwing Carson, I’d love to see CP take the Raiduhs to the SB and win!
Go CP and Raiduhs!!!!
Thanks Again Bro...I Did Enjoy Conversing With Your Board Though And Thank's For The Trio:
“QB”/“S”/“WR”….As long as Tebow is playing we be dominating…But I do expect to see Palmer light them boyz up a little with all his new weapons and one old returning one…“TJH”….

There was a reason TJ caught more passes than O-stinko...
TJ always ran precise routes and was willimng to go across the middle unlike O-stinko and TO.
Last year (2010) CP made an offhand comment that he could NOT trust some of receivers. No doubt he was referring to O-stinko and TO – both often ran ther own routes, refused to put much effort in fighting defender for ball and caused mucho INTs.
In running game, TO/CJ refused to block for the RBs – TJ always blocked. However, TJ could get an attitude at times but hopefully he’ll be more mature as thus may be his last shot in NFL.
The more you say the better I feel. As for TJ's occasional fit, that doesn't bother me as it only shows he cares and is competitive

Glad to shed some additional light of truth re: Carson
The local & national sports media have tried to paint Carson as the core problem aand have totally ignored the diva cancer of O-stinko, his intellectual inability to grasp playbook, his frequent running the wrong route and his selfish cancerous attitude on the field and off – i.e. his TV reality show with his partner in cancer – TO.
That the owner/GM and Head Coach encouraged O-stinko and basically told Carson to support O-stinko. When “Giggles” Lewis was rehired in Jan, that was the last straw for CP as his “No Comment” spoke volumes.
So what’s happening now?
O-stinko has been exposed as an incompetent fraud in NE.
The Bengali locker room and team is now a much closer TEAM and playing better as a TEAM without the o-stinko cancer.
And hopefully, Carson can resume his career with an organization that is dedicated to winning championships. Carson has HoF qualities and deserves a team like Oakland.
btw, I have VERY high regard for Hue Jackson..and it was HJ who O-stinko hit during halftime of Pitt playoff game in 2005 when Carson was injured on first play from scrimmage.

If a 7th & 5th round pick gets you Aaron Curry (a former 4th overall 1st rd. pick) instead of a couple of crap-shoots a year later, then fine and if dealing away a couple of first rounder's gets you a proven franchise quarterback like Carson Palmer and a legitimate shot at the playoffs, then great, you know why? Because your team is standing behind it's motto & legacy, "Just Win Baby!" and "Commitment to Excellence" instead of "Suck for Luck" and "Give Up". Imagine if you were a fan of a team that actually bought into that!?!

btw, I have VERY high regard for Hue Jackson..and it was HJ who O-stinko hit during halftime of Pitt playoff game in 2005 when Carson was injured on first play from scrimmage.
you mean like punch?
Dangerously? Yea.

yes, O-stinko punched HJ during halftime of that playoff game...
A few days later he offerred a tepid non-apology apology. He should have been traded or cut at that moment but the owner/GM and head coach not only placated o-stinko but enabled him to become the selfish diva at the expense of Carson, the TEAM and ultimately the failed record.
Note how much better the Bengals TEAM and locker room is now without o-stinko and how he has been exposed as the fraud in NE.
The Bengals owner/GM and head coach absolutely screwed CP and probably derailed his HoF career. For that I will never again be a bengals fan and would .love to see CP win the SB this year for Raiduh fans everywhere.
WOW.. I never heard of that incident between Chad & Hue..... Ocho lost mad respect for that...
Welcome to the darkside @freeperjim

"THE TIME TO WIN IS NOW" - Coach Hue Jackson
Raider Nation, all hand's on deck or get the hell off the ship! That's the way it's gonna be around here from now on! If a 7th & 5th round pick gets you Aaron Curry (a former 4th overall 1st rd. pick) instead of a couple of crap-shoots a year later, then fine and if dealing away a couple of first rounder's gets you a proven franchise quarterback like Carson Palmer and a legitimate shot at the playoffs, then great, you know why? Because your team is standing behind it's motto & legacy, "Just Win Baby!" and "Commitment to Excellence" instead of "Suck for Luck" and "Give Up". Imagine if you were a fan of a team that actually bought into that!?!
Cheers,

I wrote a post on Ocho noting his bad character.
I warned that Ocho would only be a disruption to our team and particularly to our developing wrs. Thanks for confirming and welcome to the blog freeperjim.

I feel like we will win this game
Our run game is the best in the league IMO I know we’re ranked second but the depth that we have at that position is crazy. Our passing game is getting me excited for the first time since Tim brown was sporting silver and black( my all time favorite raider btw) and our d has been stepping up!!! Finally we can shut down the donkeys running game no problem and pass game no problem so how is it that they are going to beat us idk the only way we lose this game is if we beat ourselves no other way

Here's the thing, and why I knew last week was no fluke
Tebow started two games this season. One against the absolute worst team in the league and one against one of the better ones. He squeaked by in OT vs. “Suck for Luck South” and got his born again ass handed to him by the real squad. I believe Oakland is more Lion than Dolphin.
Can’t wait to hear the Donc fans crying for Brady Quinn.
NFL.com Picks The Raiders 24-6 Over That "Donkey"!!!
Carson Palmer had two weeks to get ready for the rebuilding Broncos. He should look more advanced than he was in Week 7. I’d guess Tim Tebow, on the other hand, won’t.
"GB" Over "SD" 41-34
I like Philip Rivers to bounce back against a hurting Packer pass defense (Get healthy, Tramon Williams). But I like Aaron Rodgers, in pristine conditions, even more.
"KC" 27-13 Over Fish...
This could be a pothole for K.C., on a short week and coming off a big win. But the Dolphins are so psychologically battered, it’s hard to see them winning at Arrowhead.
FIRE THAT D COORDINATOR! RUN ON OUR D ~298 YARDS!
WTFUCK HAPPENED A 10 POINT LEAD AND WE LET THE DONKEYS KICK OUR ASS ON THE RUN! THE RAIDERS DONT WANT TO WIN THE DIVISION!!!!! THEY KNEW WHAT WAS ON THE LINE!!!!!
