Moreno is trash. Hillman will win the backup job next year.
looked like he tried to bring it back in to me. maybe it doesn't apply to you guys
McGahee is hurt. He has a nose for the endzone.
McGahee is hurt.
Left with Moreno, Hillman, and Ball.
Moreno is the guy right now.
We did sign Jacob Hester, who I am assuming will be the short yardage guy once he gets up to speed.
We would be smart just to have a TE and Decker in the backfield and just throw hillman over the pile into the endzone.

Haven't been overly impressed with Moreno. Doesn't seem to have much quickness and can't really break tackles well. Hillman seems to have much more explosiveness. That said, Knowshon does seem to be very patient with his blocks...
It is odd that he isn't even getting any time
I guess they really were serious that he'd be a special teamer.
2012 draft of great QBs
2011 draft of great pass rushers
I hope 2013 is the draft of great offensive linemen

Imagine a team with all three... *explooode*
They had Green in on the Moreno TD if that counts for anything.
I think they are just getting him familiar with the offense before they toss him out there. I'm not sure though, I thought this would be a good game for him to get out there. Maybe against Baltimore?

He meant to do that to get the holding call. What a master of his craft!

Flanagan's getting all hot for Peyton.
She can have it.
It really is, nice play.
Damn, OAK not letting up with the blitzes.
I was thinking the same thing earlier. It doesn't seem that difficult name to pronounce.

Well, at least Prater is performing well. I don't expect much, road divisional games are always tough.

A strong head office to start. Jury's still out on whether or not McKenzie is that guy.

That's a lot of yellow.
Get rid of all the Davis players. Get a couple of full drafts (missing picks this year again) with McKenzie instead of Al. Get a good coaching staff.
Thoughts on keeping Allen?
On one hand, we should be patient with him. On the other, he even said he has no idea why they so much.
I'm curious as to what they will do with him. They were talking about Mark Davis not being very happy with him on the radio today.
Personally, I think they should stick with him for at least a couple of seasons. It wouldn't be a bad idea to bring stability to the position after burning through so many coaches recently.
They kinda have to. You don't want to send the message that it's the same ol' team where they go through coaches like Freeman goes through tacos. I don't think he's terrible, but he doesn't have a good supporting staff.
I wish they could get an established coach, but it's not gonna happen. If they really do want to change the culture, they can't be afraid of getting rid of all these great physical specimens that don't give two shits and/or have no ball skills. I think McKenzie has shown he's all about that and he's not gonna take any shit, but hopefully they follow through in the off-season. Guys like DHB are wasting cap space and a spot. He's a third WR at best, but he's playing most of the snaps. Why? Because he was picked high and he gets paid a lot? Fuck that.
Two things I would go for are a WR and a RT. Khalif Barnes isn't even backup material. He'd easily be the most penalized player in the NFL if he had played every game. They don't like to go for veteran WRs, but they desperately need one. These young guys show promise, but they aren't ready to lead or carry the team. Oh, and DBs are the most glaring need on defense. Even without the injuries, they have the worst CB tandem in the league.
Honestly, he's a defense guy, and I don't think he's doing too bad there considering what he's been dealt. And the Raiders finally seem to have discipline (well at least until the last couple of weeks). It's the offense that's the problem and going from one of the best to worst rushing attacks is inexcusable. I think Knapp should be let go and Allen kept.
