View Full Version : Raiders Looking Pretty Shaky So Far

Pretty ugly so far for the Silver and Black. They've definitely got that deer in the headlights look. Donx looking sharp http://63.249.247.210/ubb/mad.gif

Could the MNF team be any more biased toward Denver? I'll bet they're all wearing Elway jerseys. New crew making me sick as usual.

By the way, I've always wondered this - what the hell is the crowd saying that sounds like HAR, HAR, HEEF? That's baffled and annoyed me for years.

Frazod

Still holding out for that asteroid.

How about a massive avalanche taking care of the city's demolition costs in about 30 minutes or so.

Nevermind - both the raiders & doncos would field a team of scrubs that would probably outplay our ill-coached squad....

Chieficus

Frazod,

I think it's IN-COM-PLETE that the crowd cheers.

elvislivesinkc
11-13-2000, 08:37 PM
Boy, feel the love http://63.249.247.210/ubb/mad.gif

Thanks, Dan. That makes sense.

Hoover
11-13-2000, 08:40 PM
If it were anywhere else "IN-COM-PLETE" would make sense. But it's Denver.
I say they're chanting "HAR HAR HEEF"!

(if it were in Oakland, it might be "Stop! CAR THIEF!)

elvislivesinkc
11-13-2000, 08:41 PM
LOL!

At least Oakland got 3.

Go Raiders http://63.249.247.210/ubb/mad.gif

11-13-2000, 08:47 PM

The Raiders are not as good as we make them look.

elvislivesinkc
11-13-2000, 08:49 PM
Yeah, but who is? http://63.249.247.210/ubb/biggrin.gif http://63.249.247.210/ubb/mad.gif

11-13-2000, 08:54 PM
What an interesting replay reversal.

elvislivesinkc
11-13-2000, 08:57 PM
Did you hear that? Now players on other teams who jump offsides are ridiculed by being compared to Chester.

That speaks volumes, doesn't it?

ColoradoChief
11-13-2000, 08:59 PM
Fraz - They should just rename it "chestering" instead of "off sides".

ColoradoChief
11-13-2000, 09:01 PM
I should also say that I thought the replay did show him with 2 feet on the ground and control of the ball, no doubt in my mind it was a catch. Just interesting that the fumble does count because of the incomplete call.

elvislivesinkc
11-13-2000, 09:02 PM
I like it.

"CHESTERING, NUMBER 90, DEFENSE. 5 YARDS, STILL FIRST DOWN." http://63.249.247.210/ubb/biggrin.gif

Oh Rich...Oh Rich...Scramble, scramble.

Sorry--Bob Dole lost control there for a second.

Hoover

Almost as good as the Bayou Classic 5 or 6 years ago where the New Orleans ref sez "Going Upside the Head".

kcmax
11-13-2000, 09:05 PM
That's hilarious. What if it's the "Deion" jumping offsides?

elvislivesinkc
11-13-2000, 09:06 PM
WHAT A HIT! Raiders get the ball back!

ColoradoChief
11-13-2000, 09:06 PM
I love how Gannon tries to throw it everytime he is being knocked to the ground, he throws so many ints doing that.

ColoradoChief
11-13-2000, 09:06 PM
Donx short 1 first round pick.

elvislivesinkc

Of course they have 144 yards rushing, they played us twice.

Should have said 144 yrd rushing avg...

Drug man INT! Woo-hoo!

ColoradoChief
11-13-2000, 09:09 PM
Gannon made a great pass to Romo, right in the chest. Amazing mind that guy has.

elvislivesinkc
11-13-2000, 09:09 PM
God, I hate Romanowski. http://63.249.247.210/ubb/mad.gif Hopefully he'll be in prison soon.

Hoover
11-13-2000, 09:10 PM
How'd I make that interception?
I owe it all to clean livin'.<BR>

AustinChief
11-13-2000, 09:12 PM
Okay--a serious question.

When Oakland has the ball, they've got a bunch of really big guys kind of squatted down in a row. The big guy in the center lifts the ball up between his legs and hands it to a little scrawny guy. The little scrawny guy sometimes throws the ball, but sometimes hands the ball off to some other guy. When he hands the ball to the other guy, the Denver players grab him and make him fall down just about where the big guys were in a line. What's up with that?

ColoradoChief
11-13-2000, 09:13 PM
Damn, nobody injured in that series...

Morphius
opps did I say that out loud.

ColoradoChief
11-13-2000, 09:15 PM
Dole - It is the magic of having the other big guys in the other color being somewhere where there is a guy with the ball, instead of chasing that other guy in the black and white stripes standing in behind that scrawny guy who handed it off.

AustinChief
11-13-2000, 09:16 PM
So does that behavior have a name? Seems like they ought to call it something...

ColoradoChief
11-13-2000, 09:17 PM
Why is it that when other teams run to the outside Defense are able to stop them, when other teams run outside on us it is amazing for us to stop them before 13 yards.

That is the Rison I used to love.

ColoradoChief
11-13-2000, 09:18 PM
Dole - It is called defense.

How do you overshoot Jet by 10 yards?

ColoradoChief
11-13-2000, 09:19 PM
i can't believe they didn't call the huge pick on that pass. Nothing like pushing the defender out of the way.

broncosrule
11-13-2000, 09:21 PM
Why does Oakland ALWAYS have an open "relief valve?" I mean, ALWAYS!!!

------------------
GO PITT!

ColoradoChief
11-13-2000, 09:23 PM
because their RB's are always out in the flat somewhere. I don't think they ever stay more then a couple seconds to possibly block.

Hoover
11-13-2000, 09:24 PM
Defense. That word stirs Mongo's memories. Why do I feel this strange fondness for that word? What is this thing, this Defense that you speak of, strangers? You make Mongo's brain hurt.

AustinChief
11-13-2000, 09:24 PM
Bob Dole has wondered that about every team KC plays...

Why is it that nobody is ever in the damned <a href="http://63.249.247.210/chat/index.htm">chat room</a>?

ColoradoChief
11-13-2000, 09:26 PM
Dole - Because everyone else here is really me logged in as someone else. That was I don't look like such a loser.

AustinChief
11-13-2000, 09:27 PM
That would explain it, Bob Dole supposes.

(Bob Dole would be embarassed if Bob Dole just admitted to being Packfan...)

elvislivesinkc
11-13-2000, 09:29 PM
INT... TER... CEPTION! http://63.249.247.210/ubb/biggrin.gif

ColoradoChief
11-13-2000, 09:30 PM
Bob - It can't be any more embarassing then me having more then 500 more posts as anyone else here.

Morphius
closer to 800 more...

ColoradoChief
11-13-2000, 09:30 PM
I haven't seen any chestering in a while, this is nothing like what the Chiefs play.

elvislivesinkc
11-13-2000, 09:31 PM
We all bow to the magnificence of God Emperor No Life....

ColoradoChief
11-13-2000, 09:34 PM
OK, I think Kloster is the closest too me in number of posts and I have 950+ more then him.

elvislivesinkc
11-13-2000, 09:34 PM
Gannon stripped... crap. http://63.249.247.210/ubb/mad.gif

go raiders... http://63.249.247.210/ubb/confused.gif

AustinChief
11-13-2000, 09:34 PM
There's actually 3 people in the chat room, King No Life.

ColoradoChief
11-13-2000, 09:35 PM
Dole - Probably because you brought them into the darkness from lurkerland.

Morphius
HATES THE FIREWALLS!!!

ColoradoChief
11-13-2000, 09:37 PM
Fraz - Gannon is having a great game 0TD 2INT's and 1 Fumble.

elvislivesinkc
11-13-2000, 09:38 PM
Well, they're certainly still in it. Hope they get 7 here. F#ck Denver! http://63.249.247.210/ubb/mad.gif

AustinChief
11-13-2000, 09:38 PM
So you can't even hit the damned thing from home? Sad...very, very sad.<BR>

ColoradoChief
11-13-2000, 09:40 PM
Dole - Nope, I use my 128k ISDN line into work, it is either that or 56k modem, yuck.

dnvrCHIEFSfn
11-13-2000, 09:40 PM
Morph - and they're still winning. Amazing what a defense will do for ya, huh?<BR>

ColoradoChief
11-13-2000, 09:40 PM
The squirmy worm sacked!

ColoradoChief
11-13-2000, 09:41 PM
Dartgod - Defense, hmmm? Please explain, I'm unfamiliar with that term.

AustinChief
11-13-2000, 09:42 PM
Heck, Bob Dole has a 28.8 connection...

ColoradoChief
11-13-2000, 09:43 PM
Dole - Dear God!

ColoradoChief
11-13-2000, 09:44 PM
Nice hail marry! Throwing it WAY out of bounce!

elvislivesinkc
11-13-2000, 09:44 PM
The sad thing here is, if the Chiefs had a minute left before halftime and the ball, they'd let the clock run out and head for the lockerroom.

Maybe the Stooges are watching this game. Of course, they've all shown they can't learn.

[This message has been edited by frazod (edited 11-13-2000).]

ColoradoChief
11-13-2000, 09:46 PM
Fraz - The can learn, it just takes them 2 weeks. In a couple weeks they well realize that they are trying to take away our passing game and then will try to run the ball, of course it will be Bennett, but we will try to run the ball.

dnvrCHIEFSfn
11-13-2000, 09:47 PM
Anyone else hear Al on that last play? 1 sec left and he asks if they will go for tyhe hail mary here. Hmmmm, that's a tough one Al...

elvislivesinkc
11-13-2000, 09:49 PM
Yay, Bennett. He strikes laughter into the heart of defenses everywhere....

ColoradoChief
11-13-2000, 09:51 PM
Fraz - So that is where those tears come from, they are laughing so hard. I knew it couldn't be fear.

ColoradoChief
11-13-2000, 09:53 PM
Dartgod - That pass was so far off that it looked more like a wide left field goal attempt then a pass.

elvislivesinkc
11-13-2000, 09:55 PM
Good point, Morph. It did resemble a Chiefs field goal attempt... http://63.249.247.210/ubb/mad.gif

AustinChief
11-13-2000, 09:56 PM
bob Dole expected the connection to be faster than 28.8. Bob Dole is waiting for a recount to see if it's not really faster than that.

ColoradoChief
11-13-2000, 09:57 PM
My FFL's so far tonight...

+9 on Kloster on Keeper
+41 on JOhn in Playas
+8 on JOhn in BB1

A couple of close ones.

DIEHARDCHIEF
11-13-2000, 09:57 PM
Sorry if someone has mentioned this already, I'm too lazy to read through all of these replies. I think we are all Raiders fans for the rest of the year, as dispicable as that sounds. If Oakland can go through and beat up on their AFC opponents, and our coaches pull their heads out (I'm not holding my breath) we could possibly make the play offs. I haven't looked at their schedule so I don't know specifics (Again the laziness).

I held out hope after we lost in Oakland last week that we had a shot, but that performance yesterday has me questioning exactly what I am hoping for.

ColoradoChief
11-13-2000, 09:58 PM
Dole - Is that using the BW protocol?

ColoradoChief
11-13-2000, 10:21 PM
Fraz - How much bragging will Denise do if they lose this game compared to if they win? Escpecially the way Gannon is playing.

ColoradoChief
11-13-2000, 10:22 PM
Fraz - Plus we get to take on the DOnx again, if we don't beat them then we don't deserve seeing anything near the playoffs.

ColoradoChief
11-13-2000, 10:24 PM
Gannon pulled that fake to real hand off well, big loss.

elvislivesinkc
11-13-2000, 10:24 PM
Oh, screw Denise. Like I'd ever let her influence my thinking. I hate Denver worse than death. Besides, the other board's down.

If Denver wins, we drop into third place. The division is gone, but we can still get a wildcard. We have to keep up with the f#cking Broncos.

ColoradoChief
11-13-2000, 10:25 PM
I'm Super Man! Oh crap no I'm not crash!

ColoradoChief
11-13-2000, 10:26 PM
Fraz - Our biggest enemy is ourselves. If we beat the donx we hold the tie breaker on them and we are OK.

elvislivesinkc
11-13-2000, 10:30 PM
You don't understand. I want Denver to lose EVERY GAME, ALWAYS AND FOREVER! MAY THEY NEVER WIN ANOTHER GAME! I HATE THEM I HATE THEM I HATE THEM!

If they were playing a team of rapists and child molesters coached by Hitler, I'D STILL ROOT AGAINST THEM!

Any questions?

ColoradoChief
11-13-2000, 10:30 PM
I think I just saw a case of chestering.

ColoradoChief
11-13-2000, 10:33 PM
Fraz - I understand, it is just that we can knock the crap out of the donx, Gannon knows our defense too well from all the practice he got against it while he was here. The that fargin icehole Rison.

I hate the donx to and would love to see these teams just kill eachother.

elvislivesinkc

Wolf - Too much faith in Gannon.

ColoradoChief
11-13-2000, 10:53 PM
Let's see if Gannon can screw up another chance. Their ST and D have been giving him great field position and only 10 points.

flowergirl
11-13-2000, 10:54 PM
Morph,
I'm not going to comment on Gannon. Everytime I critisize him his running back takes a 2 yard swing pass 50 yards... http://63.249.247.210/ubb/smile.gif

ColoradoChief
11-13-2000, 10:55 PM
Wolf - I understand that.

ColoradoChief
11-13-2000, 10:59 PM
Wolf - Just no more passes to Rison, I only have a 5 point lead on JOhn now. Of course if Griese could throw a TD I think I can go back to feeling a little safer.

ddpatterson
11-13-2000, 11:01 PM
Between the two, I'd rather see Denver win. If KC makes the playoffs because Denver and the other AFC wildcard contenders choke, what consolation is that? I'd rather make the playoffs by EARNING it, anyway.

Denver's defense is looking good tonight. It reminds me of when our defense actually had balls. Now we're just read-and-not-react, soft-zone pussies.

Venting. http://63.249.247.210/ubb/smile.gif

elvislivesinkc
11-13-2000, 11:02 PM

Denver is self destructing.

Watching Deltha O'Neal return that kick, I'm glad we didn't draft him. He was on an Oakland talk show earlier this week basically saying he wished the Raiders had drafted him (he's from around these parts and went to school at nearby Cal). Thank you Denver.

Wow, what a catch by Ed!

Morph,
My sentiments exactly. I was rooting for Denver. If we get to the playoffs, we should beat Denver and Buffalo and go through them. But I sure as heck don't want the Raiders getting homefield and having an easier ride to the Super Bowl with that schedule they have...

ColoradoChief
11-13-2000, 11:31 PM

Ecto-I

Gannon lost yeah, but not before striking a final TD to tie it and get ever so closer to that MVP award. Defense just had to crumble in the end...

I might have to hurt you....

Oh well. Oakland lost. Not the worst thing in the world. But now we're in third place looking up at the Donx, and our team has fallen apart. Not good....

Griffen - Whatever, his 3 turnovers and his 4th down pass getting tipped helped your team a lot in this one.

One good thing - we won't be hearing much out of the Raiderette, will we?

Oh, we probably will anyway.

Wow. 30 car pile-up on a Chicago expressway tonight. Kind of like the Raiders D on that last drive. http://63.249.247.210/ubb/biggrin.gif

Fraz - LOL! The great thing is she is probably lurking since her home is down and has to read all of these comments.

Did I mention that Gannon looked ok, except for the fact that his mental mistakes and missing wide open WR's on long passes and missing blitzes and passes to wide open defenders cost his team the game. Well, OK it wasn't that good of a game.

Like you said earlier, we're our own worst enemies. The outcome of this game is meaningless for us unless our guys pull their heads out and start playing some football.

Happy greetings to all silent lurkers.

I'm off to bed. Goodnight, everybody.

Giffen,
You mean that flip to Tim Brown who was wide open after the defender fell? That was a tough throw...
