What is more pathetic is that the final was actually 38-6, due to a missed PAT. I'd like to collect early from every moron I bet with who said Kevin Jones would run for 1600 yards and 12 TDs. He was drafted 5 rounds early in every FF draft I have seen.

Yea, too bad you'll have to pay it all back to the people you were shooting your mouth of to about Jamal Lewis.

Hey, I thought there was a supplemental draft the following night, okay. I was laughing away at everyone as I held on to my $20 knowing you would all only have pennies for the Maurice Clarett's of the league.

The funny thing is you still think you're right about Jamal.

Shouldn't surprise me, you same Steeler fans were saying the same about Jerome MANY years ago.

Yea, I am sure it is realy easy for Jamal to get off when the entire league and even your mom know that Baltimore has no passing game.

BUMP

Speaking of bumps,bump Norv Turner to the top of this list.

Talk about doing nothing with something. Granted we played Philly tough but we blew numerous chances to score. Penalties,poor play calls,and just flat out bad football killed us. And don't give me this"Norv wasn't out there missing tackles " bullshit. Norv is the coach,he is supposed to make sure the assistants are doing their jobs,the players are learning something,and are responding. I've seen very little progress so far. Still the dumb penalties,still dropping passes,and still making the mistakes that kill teams chances to win.

You know if Al does fire Norv who will be his next puppe ERRRRR coach?

The assistants aren't out there missing tackles, either.

Sometimes bad things simply happen to bad teams.

Again its Norvs job to make sure the assistants are doing their jobs. Making sure everyone is on the same page.

Is Jordan simply "not on the same page" when he drops passes out in the flat, then?

Damn that Norv.

They also arn't telling their special teams to fall on kicks to give the offense a last chance at throwing one downfield.

They arn't calling short zones to stop Westbrook from killing them out of the backfield.

Yea, the assistants arn't out there.

Thins happen. Granted the player can just flat out drop a catch it happens. But what about dumb penalties like late hits,facemasks,holds,flase starts etc? Isn't Norv supposed to be coaching these guys for situations like that? Shouldn't Norv be working with them on staying focused or learning plays? Thats what I'm talking about. The Raiders get the same dumb penalties every time. with Gruden he corrected these mistakes .Under Gruden the Raiders were held accountable and face his wrath. Under Turner its oh well better luck next time. You ever see Turner fired up on the sidelines? Me neither.

Gruden also had better players. Funny how talent makes for smart coaches.

As I saw the schedule this year I was hopeful Oakland would be 1-2 at this point. Roadies against last year's Super Bowl teams figured to be stiff. KC is always a tough game, home or away.

They now have 3 straight home games.......Dallas, bye, SD, and Buffalo.

The game with Dallas next week is critical, IMO.

0-4 going into the bye and the seeds of doubt will have already grown to full bloom.

1-3 with 2 straight home games coming after the bye would give the team a shot of confidence and hope.

Norv could end up getting shitcanned, but I seriously doubt he'd get run during the season.

Al would prolly wait 'til Christmas Eve to fire him, like he did Mike White.

No shit, Marcus?

You sure do put the "anal" in analysis, tart.

Another rebuilding season in Oakland.
