I think defensively Oakland finishes around bottom 5.

Offensively I think you guys look pretty good though. I think Carson Palmer will have a fairly solid season. I like Denarius Moore and Jacoby Ford a lot. McFadden is a beast when he's healthy...And as much as I liked Michael Bush, I think T. Jones will make a nice replacement as a scat back type guy. The O-line has some obvious holes. The offense could be hit or miss all season.
This will be the year the Raiders get there legs back under them as far as the salary cap and draft and become a normal NFL franchise...

We could go 4-12 or we could co 12-4 it all depends on how well we do on the corners .

Raiders will score this year, the question will be if they can stop anyone.

Wrong.

The Seahawks went down HARD bro.

Don't really mean 12-4 ... 10-6 is a possibility if the Defense is good

:facepalm:

Shit, I forgot about Cassel's heroic acts in that game while Bowe picked on Kelly Jennings all day.

Step backwards for sure.
Eh. 2010 wasn't all that. The playoff game against the Ravens showed we weren't a serious contender. I think 2010 and 2011 and 2012 are all about the same team. If everything goes right they can make the playoffs, but with a few injuries and things going wrong we can be blown out by the Lions and Bills.

That's why I said "potential."

We weren't a contender in 2010. 2011 was a chance to take that next step, and we failed horribly.

With our schedule this year we have another chance to prove we belong.

Do people watch any football before they write this crap? 1 Block FG away from winning the West and that's a big step backwards?

what do you mean? the question is DO YOU WATCH FOOTBALL? PFT is basically giving us the same 7-9 to 8-8 to 9-7 average range we were last season. That's 21st, if you flip it, it's basically drafting 11th, we picked 11th in the draft this year. They are saying that big step backwards to average mediocrity will continue for us in 2012. And with Cassel at QB, they have a good argument.

This is kinda what I'm thinking.


We aren't going to become world beaters in a year. As is the way in the NFL. But I would like to see us start beating good teams.


It's weird how it goes, but it seems that teams that improve year in year out take small steps every year.


Hopefully for us last year was our slump year after a good year. I fear that it was our "shitbag" qb year and not much is changing till he's out.

I love that the media and everyone in general keep understating this team...

Gonna be awesome when we prove them all wrong.

O.city 07-14-2012 02:25 PM
We are right were we should be. Until we show we can beat good teams, we are just an unproven team with talent.

What have they done to deserve anything more?

21 wins in 3 years of this regime, 10 of them against the easiest schedule in the NFL since the 1999 Rams.

Spot on.

Who cares what these fortune tellers think. They're never right, anyway.

I hope they rank us right below the Chiefs.



I can assure you that Michael David Smith's hometown NFL team will be ranked in the top ten - that's how it goes with sports writers.

Yours truly,
