We didn't put our best foot forward yesterday during the Thanksgiving game in Dallas, and paid for it on the scoreboard. It wasn't all bad, though, and there were some signs that were encouraging for the future. There were some of the usual frustrations, as well. Trevor Scott played standing up ...Oakland Raiders Week 12 : Pressures, Hurries, and Knockdowns

Published on: 27th October, 2009
I think I'm one of the few Oakland Raider fans that still has faith in JaMarcus Russell. The ranks have thinned, and rightly so. With so much invested and his physical gifts, I simply can't write him off and stop hoping that one day the light will go on and ...The Oakland Raiders: The NFL’s Answer To Sybil

*SIGH* After a solid performance against the Eagles in which JaMarcus Russell looked decent if unspectacular.

The worst home loss in franchise history has served to blow ...Oakland Raiders Week Seven: Pressures, Hurries, and Knockdowns
