Anybody just see the way Gannon went down?

Doesn't look pretty. In some pretty good pain.

It looked like Mccaffrey, wuss injury.

Apparently nothing serious, back out there and doesn't look affected.

I was just impressed he had a pass that went 15 yards in the air. He is an MVP in the way that Bono was a Probowler, passes to RB's our of the backfield make him look good, lets face it, it is hard to throw ints on 5 yard passes.

The key to his effectiveness is the running game he has behind him. No one can key on him, and it leaves those short passes wide open for YAC's. It's no surprise in that offense you can be a probowler for 2 years with the no 1 running game behind you for 2 years. But I'll give the Raiders credit, that offense works and they have a plan and they stick with it...

Wolf - Can't agree more, it is a well developed offense for the QB that they have. His RB's are threats for passes as well as runs, which makes it hard to defend because you can have WR's, TE's, FB's and HB's to watch, plus the panicky Gannon looking to run as well.

I don't know why they think he would have run for that TD, there were 3 guys converging on him.

1 minute left in the half and no timeouts and he runs with the ball, hmmm, seems I remember some other QB getting blasted for makeing this "stupid decision". Then a couple plays later almost throws a pick, interesting...
