Tbh their off season has been bad but not THAT bad. I'd say 6-10 or 7-9, for whatever reason I see DHB having a solid year.
2-14 is my guess.
What's yours, mono's brother?

You never know
they could be a sleeper team
better than the Niners
So, Raider fan, how about the talk floating around that they may build a stadium both teams can use?
The Oaktown colosseum is a dump, ditto for the stick. If it means funding would be easier, I'm all for it. Seems to work fine for the NY teams.
I'd rather they left Oakland and came to LA.
And no way do they sniff 7-9. The D-line would need to be unstoppable for that, and McClain would have to play at a level near a top tier LB.
I think the season rides on the play of JaMarcus Russell. If he can cut down on his interceptions and be a little more accurate on his inside seam routes he will be a very hard QB to defend. He's already showing a lot of potential, he's already a top 10 QB in the league, but with a few minor adjustments he will be elite. I have faith in him. He has a strong work ethic and character.
Did you know the Raiders also had the 3rd best slot receiver in the NFL?
I still have faith in Russell getting this Raider team to the Super Bowl.
Ina world of hype, Russell just wins
not happening
LA will end up with the Bills or the Jags, imo
jamaaacus is a great player, get over it.
Take the Jags, nobody goes to there games anyways
I don't mean it as a slight at all. Neither city deserves to lose their team.
Take the Jags, nobody goes to there games anyways
It probably would be the Jags before the Bills
Attendance is still good up in Buffalo, right?
could be probs when Ralph Wilson dies, though
Bills-Raiders in Week 2. The Fitz will destroy them.
Ralph's actually been dead for 10 years...little known secret.
yeah, attendance is still ok...better than the Jags.
Raiders offseason hasn't been as bad as people think, considering they are such a young team.
Losing Miller and Aso sucked, but both would have required an awful lot of money, and those funds need to be used to boost up the offensive line. Their secondary will still be solid (Routt is a very underrated CB), and their front 7 is looking like they will be one of the best in the league.
And its looking like they will get Kevin Boss, who is pretty comparable to Zach Miller, but probably much cheaper.
I have no problem with what they are doing. They are a young team that needs to build with good drafts, low risk high reward signings in FA, and good player development. That is what they seem to finally be doing, as opposed to overpaying overhyped big name FAs that only result in winning 5 games a year and be ed financially. The Raiders have now gotten rid of most of their bad contracts and have a lot of promising youth, to go with Hue Jackson, who according to everyone around him, has all the makings to be a great coach.
Truth is, even if they fail miserably this season, I'm happier than in previous failed seasons, because at least they have a young team that still can grow, and tradable pieces as opposed to being stuck with overpaid old guys like Warren Sapp, Randy Moss, or Gibril Wilson. They have had very good drafts for the past 2 seasons (which is no coincedence because apparently Al is allowing other people to take more charge in that department).
I can see the Raiders repeating last year's success and being even better. They have a pretty favorable schedule. There's only 1 game on their schedule that's gonna be a guaranteed curbstomping (at Green Bay) the rest of their tough out of conference games are all at home.
Agreed. If their coach is what he is cracked up to be, I think they will at the very least be 8-8 again.
I have always thought Jason Campbell was underrated, and he showed last year he can do a very good job when given the chance. According to reports, hes been looking very good in camp and comfortable to finally be in the same offensive system for more than a year.
Kevin Boss comparable to Zach Miller?
hahahohwow.avi
Yeah Boss isn't the receiving threat Zach Miller is.
Unless he's playing a certain team with slow ass linebackers that had 0 losses entering the superbowl
We're only gonna score 17 points? hahah, okay.
Tbh if you can get a Patriots player to talk at a press conference you know you're in their head. When Welker decided to get in a pissing match with the Jets about Rex Ryan's feet I had a horrible feeling about how that game would turn out.
not saying hes as good as Miller, but that if they get him, losing Miller doesnt hurt too badly. It's not like Miller was used the right way anyways, so if they can get comparable production out of Boss, for cheaper, I'm all for it.
Kind of gay we have to wait till Monday night to watch them. Not only that, but I usually go to bed by 8. Really sucks.
they play saturday i thought
