Oakland Raiders
After a 27-point season-opening drubbing, there’s no angrier fans in the NFL right now than those who follow the Oakland Raiders. Four days after the ugly loss, though, not one of those fans -- or maybe all combined -- is angrier than defensive coordinator Rob Ryan. The 45-year-old swore more than 25 times during a Thursday meeting with...

Ryan needs to go plain and simple. He hasn't done shit since he's been with the Raiders. I wonder if he realizes that his so called defense doesn't work at all. It's gonna be a long year if he doesn't get his shit together.

If we lose this week to K.C. by chance, someone's going bye bye.

RYAN NEEDS TO GO. He has the players but not the results.

He has a very solid secondary he made look like the worse in the NFL. In the secondary Asomugha, Hall, Gibril, Huff and Routt, all 5 can play in any NFL team as starters, LB's Morrison and Howard are very solid, and DL's Burgess, Kelly and Warren (When he whants) all can play.

We have spent many first and second rounds pick on defense and there is no results, that's coach problem. Only Asomugha seems to be what he was supposed to be when drafted.

Can anyone tell me why D.Hall is not a press corner? How in the hell can the Raiders sign him to a big contract and he it's a press corner. And for thous that don't know what a press corner is, look at how Asomugha plays. He is in the wide outs faces on the bump and run without any fear of the wide out getting behind him every thing is in front of him at all times. That’s why not to many opposing qb's or coordinators throw his way. The film on Aso does not give them a better percentage of completion. D.Hall played the entire game 7 to 9 yards of the ball. I think D.Hall is (check that) was afraid of exposure but now it makes no difference he is wide open now. This game is a gut check for D.Hall I hope he mans up and press. I'm not confident that D.Hall posses the mentality or mind set to play in press cover if appears if any wide out simply call him out of his name than he response with stupid mistakes. In the denver game you can see him talking shit to the broncos side line to guys not even on the field when he should keep all focus on doing his job. From the neck up hall is challenged. He is far to easy to distract. As far as Ryan I did see him dig into Huff for that missed tackle for a touchdown Ryan was letting the F bomb go.
