mainly because you guys don't get to face the raiders tbhWeird to say it, but this was actually a good piece from bleacher report. Was a critical piece about Carr's game. The kid certainly has a lot to learn, but I'm glad he's starting. As long as he isn't out there getting beat up any experience is good experience. Had he watched this game from the sidelines, he would be further behind in his development than he is at this moment, having faced 60 minutes of Rex. I just feel for him that we have the toughest schedule in the league and a bunch of stout defensive teams. As long as he stays upright and doesn't start getting defeated mentally, it'll pay off

Charles Woodson: "We Suck"
he's not wrong
As far as playing top end defenses this year, the league did the Raiders no favors whatsoever.
AFC East and NFC West.... and we play everybody in the AFC West except the raiders
still playing at A's stadium ?
Both side of the Raiduhhs would probably lose...AFC East and NFC West.... and we play everybody in the AFC West except the raiders
Collllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllld Bloooooded
we should look into the 2015 draft
what are the chances you guys take a qb when they clean house

the ROAST of Dennis Allen... this is a question asked to him during a post-practice press conference yesterday
Reporter - How do you go about getting the answer when you as a coach and your other coaches have put in all the hours you have, and i'm sure that if you thought there was more you could do, you would. So you'd think you have that covered. Then it has to go down to if you like the players you have... so what's the answer? How do you go about finding that? Are we past the coaching point, where the coaching is the problem?
Allen - Ok here's what we gotta do. We gotta change the mindset
Reporter - Yeah but this is the third year. Hadn't you changed that the first year you came in here
Who'd get interim duties?

the most natural candidate would be Tony Sparano. wouldn't be the first time our offensive line coach became an interim HC. i just hope they dont end up falling in love with him... these interim coach love-fests generally end poorly. we did it with tom cable, the chiefs did it with crennel
They should hire spurraider21 as the interim--wouldn't really make a difference between him and Dennis Allen.
It's not Dennis Allen's fault that the GM tried to recreate the 2008 Pro Bowl teams in free agency despite having the most cap space and that they have to rely on JaCarrcus Russell under center
article full of truth bombs... http://www.mercurynews.com/raiders/c...l-hue-jacksons
Carson Palmer, Jared Veldheer, Matt Schaughnessy, all former Raiders now on the Cardinals talking about how the firing of Hue Jackson has led to the Raiders reverting to their ty ways after they had basically turned the corner going 8-8 for 2 straight years
Of course Palmer's going to defend him, Hue was the dumb who traded all those picks for him
to continue the trend of game defining gifs...
Week 3 summary:
really though, the defining play was one play before that... rookie made a dumb mistake. he'll learn from it. at that point there is no reason to hold, mcfadden was ahead of him and the momentum would have carried him forward even if the defender got there
BELIEVE.
Believe.

Pro Football Focus recap of the Raiders/Pats game. Mack was nearly invisible in week 1 but has really come along since. Also seems dumb that we signed Austin Howard from the Jets, one of the better young RT's around, and decided he should play guard. He hasn't been effective at all. And it's not like we have some stud RT that's preventing him from playing there. also i wouldn't be opposed to just cutting denarius moore. he flashes talent but i dont want him around. sucks because in his rookie year he was flashing serious WR1 potential
The Oakland Raiders traveled to Foxborough yesterday for the New England Patriots’ home opener. Each team struggled to move the ball, especially on the ground, and Tom Brady’s second quarter touchdown pass was the only time either team found the end zone.
Here are some notable performances:
Oakland Raiders – Performances of Note
Khalil Mack, LB: +6.2
Breakdown: Mack was excellent for the second week in a row, and gave Nate Solder trouble throughout the game. The rookie recorded four run stops, and added two hits on Brady on his way to a game-best +6.2 grade.
Signature Stat: Mack was especially dominant in the run game, earning a +5.8 grade.
Austin Howard, RG: -3.0
Breakdown: Oakland’s offense finished the game with a ulative -9.1 run blocking grade, and Howard was the worst offender after earning a -2.7 in that department. Howard also allowed a hit and a hurry.
Signature Stat: The Raiders ran 11 times for just 28 yards between the right A and B gaps behind Howard.
Denarius Moore, WR: -2.4
Breakdown: Moore was targeted seven times and caught three passes for just 23 yards, including two drops. Moore’s 0.96 Yards per Route Run for the game would rank second-worst among qualifying recievers so far in 2014.
Signature Play: Moore’s second dropped pass caromed off of Logan Ryan, right into the arms of DT Vince Wilfork for the game-sealing interception.
New England Patriots – Performances of Note
Dont’a Hightower, LB: +5.1
Breakdown: Hightower graded positively in all phases of defense (run defense, pass rushing and coverage) for the second week in a row, and currently leads all Patriots defenders with a +8.3 overall grade for the season. The Alabama product recorded four run stops, and had a hit and two hurries on 11 pass rush attempts.
Signature Stat: Hightower was at his best in pass coverage (+3.0), allowing 3 passes to be complete for -7 yards.
Nate Solder, LT: -3.3
Breakdown: Solder’s struggles continued yesterday, as he earned his third consecutive red-graded game. He had trouble with Khalil Mack throughout the game, and Solder’s overall grade now stands at -7.8 in 2014.
Signature Stat: Solder allowed three hits and a hurry on Tom Brady, earning a -2.5 pass blocking grade in the process.
Jerod Mayo, LB: +3.4
Breakdown: Mayo recorded four run stops, earning a team-best +2.4 run defense grade. Like Hightower, Mayo earned positive marks in all three areas defensively.
Signature Stat: Mayo recorded four QB hurries on just eight pass rushes.
PFF Game Ball
Khalil Mack gets the game ball in a losing effort, after posting the best game of his young career.
