Raiders should go for 2 to make it 60 :P

rubecube · 10-24-2010, 04:44 PM

TD Raiders.

Machiavelli · 10-24-2010, 04:45 PM

This is getting ridiculous.

rubecube · 10-24-2010, 04:46 PM

Someone has to be fired for this, if only to make some sort of statement.

OILFAN #81 · 10-24-2010, 04:47 PM

59-14 at the end of the 3rd quarter...................WOW. Kansas City and Oakland are going to battle for the division. Who would have thunk it at the beginning of the season?

KC is 4-2 and I think they will be 6-2 in a few weeks.

OILFAN #81 · 10-24-2010, 04:52 PM

I have noticed a trend with SD. They will be down a bunch, come back to make it close, but then can't take the lead at the end.

23-20 Patriots lead SD with 4 minutes to go in the 4th.

Chargers already in field goal range, wow.

Or at least pretty close to it.

OILFAN #81 · 10-24-2010, 05:08 PM

Chargers in FG range already......

watch the end of that game. Should be a good one!

Special teams sinks San Diego again.

Off the upright.

Chiefs fans must be so pumped right now.

KC is 4-2, Oakland will be 3-4, SD and Denver are both 2-5. Chiefs get the Bills next week as well.

GirlySports · 10-24-2010, 05:16 PM

SD should have won by alot but turnovers and special teams killed them.
NE was quite poor.

Displaced Flames fan · 10-24-2010, 05:26 PM

There's 3 hours I'll never get back.

Perplexed at why Orton continued to play. That's an opportunity to get Tebow in to a game and get some experience.

Rolando McClain will be a star.

I'll be surprised if the Raiders finish with more than 5 wins.

I won't be. They have a pretty easy schedule the rest of the way. They have a few tricky games, but I seem them probably picking up anywhere from 3-5 wins.

Seattle
KC
@Pittsburgh
Miami
@San Diego
@Jacksonville
Denver
Indianapolis
@KC

That's pretty easy?

I see Seattle, Denver and Jacksonville as possible wins.

rubecube · 10-24-2010, 05:45 PM

Only 3 of those teams have winning records and they get two of those at home.

EDIT: I guess 4 teams if you count Seattle, but they're pretty much a non-factor on the road.

ResAlien · 10-24-2010, 05:48 PM

I'm probably the biggest McDaniels apologist out there, but damn dude put Tebow in the game! Inexplicable.

GirlySports · 10-24-2010, 05:57 PM

Coach doesn't want a QB controversy? Why put Tebow into a blowout to get the media and fans riled up if he does well?

I think the Raiders have a really good shot at Jacksonville and Seattle. San Diego is no great shakes. Miami, SD and Denver are possible wins. And I think the Raiders can take 1 from KC. KC's special teams are great, but Lechler is the best punter in a generation so maybe that helps neutralize the field position battle.

5 wins should happen (damn loss to SF). 6 wins is likely. 7-8 and I would be thrilled.

The game was over after the first quarter. You have to get a young guy some experience other than his usual circus appearances. Plus, it would have given the fans their money's worth in an otherwise horrible showing.

The thing is, pulling Orton for Tebow isn't necessarily a function of Orton being horrible (which he really wasn't). It's a function of the likelihood of winning the game. If that's McDaniels' response it's a poor one.

OILFAN #81 · 10-24-2010, 06:32 PM

Not sure who I want to win in this Sunday night game. Standings wise they are both in the NFC so it is meaningless for me......I really like Aaron Rodgers though but I do respect what Favre has done in his career.
