Around SBN: Steve McNair Found Shot to Death


NFL Network is Reporting That McCown May be Down, Daunte May Start Against Broncos:

Oakland Raiders Quarterback, Josh "Check Down" McCown, has a slight break on his throwing hand. I thought it was hurt when I could hear the "POP" from my seats on Sunday.

If this is true, I wish him a steady recovery and "Son of Monte" is OFF the hot seat.

Now IF Daunte goes out and struggles, he was right. If Daunte goes out and leads us to a win, then maybe McCown would have too. I mean he did throw for 313 and 2 TD's on Sunday. Forget the 3 fumbles and two picks...Oh yeah, and the pass out of bounds to a wide open Curry and the decision to run on 3rd and 4 with Griffith wide open...

No one wants to get the starting job because of an injury and I hope that Daunte IS ready to run the show.

McCown's stats look good
but all he did was drop short passes to his backs, and short passes to Curry or Zack.  I watched a lot of games over the weekend, and most of the other QB's aired the ball out a few times, you have to loosen up the defense.  Frankly I am not sure McCown really has the arm to do that.  I am concerned that if Culpepper does start whether or not the line can give him enough protection.  When the Raiders were playing play action McCown had plenty of time to make something happen, but still he went for the safe and short pass, rather than do what Kitna did, hit the big pass for 25 or more yards.
