Old school, all the way
I have been a Raiders fan for about 35 years now, but always at a distance, because I haven't lived anywhere that close. But this year, even though I'm in Texas, it looks like that is going to...
This was a bit of an odd draft, with some ups and downs, more than I expected after last year's studious effort. That isn't saying that this draft was a dud, or bad, but it wasn't what I expected...
I am not going to predict trades, either up or down, and so will be using the picks as they stand now. First round, #3 overall - DT Star Lotulelei (6'2, 311). I take Star over Floyd for a number...
As the title states, this will be a partial view, because much will be determined by how the draft shakes out. Free agency has been somewhat determined, as we have seen what our cap situation will...
With the season over, now is the time for evaluation of the team over the course of the year. There were ups and downs, and obviously the Raiders did not achieve what was desired, by the players,...

Yes, just an unconfirmed rumor, but who knows? While he has said that he wants to stay at Monday Night Football, there aren't many coaches his age that are ready to hang it up completely. h...
The WR corps need a definite revamping. While Palmer threw 54 times today, 14 went to his TE, and 5 to his RB, over half of his 34 completions. Also, his starting WR's weren't even in the game on...
1) The rushing game has improved, although there is still no evidence that McFadden can be successful in the scheme, nor able to play more than about half a season. Even against Baltimore,...
Yes, it is good to get a W, but that was one heck of a sloppy game, at least in the first half. If this game had turned out differently, it would have been a crushing loss; that it went the other...
Actually, before I go into that though, I am going to touch on some recent history, and how that ties into what is currently happening right now. First, the roster for the Raiders has in recent...

Grading each Oakland Raiders selection
Although we are just through the first three rounds of the draft, I am feeling pretty good about what has been done so far. I love the pick of Wisniewski, and the pick of Barksdale is solid. I...
Okay, the season seems to be back on, and because everyone and their brother are throwing mock drafts out there, I'd hate to feel left out and not contribute as well. So, on to the chase...
That's the rumor. More as it becomes available... http://eye-on-football.blogs.cbssports.com/mcc/blogs/entry/22475988/27538700 I'd rather the deal be for 4 years, but as long as it's...
Because a mock, at this point, is just plain whistling in the dark. Before any kind of mock can be even guessed at, what has to be done is to look at the roster and all of the free agents...
I present a thought for improvement that can take place not only now, but also over the offseason. The OL is an obvious problem, and has been the weak link on the offense. Even during the win...
It is starting to look like another lost season. It isn't because the Rams are so bad, because you can see that they have gotten better, and last year's record is not going to be this year's....
Opening day, as ugly and disappointing as it was, is history. Nothing can be done to bring it back, or change the result.So... what can we hope for next week? Here is my list, with possible...
Why are we already savaging those who were being praised just a week ago? "Jackson sucks"
The season begins! Not an auspicious start for Figurs; not a hard hit, but the ball was being carried like a loaf of bread. Decent blocking, we'll see how that plays out... First drive......
I've never seen the Raiders play in Oakland, the only home games I've been to were in LA. It looks like I am going to be at the Miami game 11/28, and would appreciate any tips on seating. I...
