 Oakland Raiders
It’s tough to take away positives from a loss (particularly against a bottom-feeder like the Kansas City Chiefs), but not impossible when many of your guys put in gutsy performances and give some glimmering of hope. The Oakland Raiders were once again just this short of the fairly elusive ‘W’ on Sunday and because they have been eliminated from ...

well, what should i say? its no surprise that thigpen went up the middle and anybody who's seen even just the littlest game film would have known thats what he has been doing since he became the starter, UP THE MIDDLE AND PASSES TO TONY GONZALEZ!..alright now, since it's obvious mcfadden is pretty much healed from the turf toes then why don't we see just exactly he can do, line him up all over the damn place cause it's obvious we don't have a receiving core, then spell fargas with bush, or for cripes sake lets bring in rankin from the practice squad and start evaluating some of these guys in real nfl time not the pre-season where they can rack up tons of yards playing 3rd and 4th never will be's...one last thing on russell, i'm sorry but he will never amount to any type of nfl QB i he has to learn by 'baptism under fire"..so with that being said we need to look into a veteran Qb to sign for at least a 2 year contract in order to make the transition a little easier for russell, give him time to absorb the playbook,and give him a proven veteran Qb that will sit with him during practice and afterwards and talk football and decision making with him...he needs a mentor not a shit azz qb's coach on a shit azz team...this is the only way i see him remotely being a leader and nfl QB for the raiders...all the above and decent veteran offensive line!

In Russell defense their is no one there for guidance. There is no tutor. I would love to have Rich Gannon in his ear or a Ron Jaworski. It will be nice to sign Matt Cassell then let them compete for the position next year. One thing is for sure Russell should be further along in his learning process.
