Raiderjoe

There are no good feelings losing a 21- to 3 lead no matter how you try and spin it. It was a brutal loss but what can you do alot of the credit has to go to the Bills. They made the big plays, Raiders didn't and they are 1-1, your 2-0. Its time to come home and get ready to play the Jets. Someone on defense has to step up and make the big play when they have that chance, they didn't and Bills made every single one of those in the second half.

Hey I thought it would come down to the last possession and It did. Raiders couldn't make the big play on defense and Bills made them . Thats football. Good luck the rest of the way and thanks for letting me be a part of your messageboard this week.

Without a doubt but they will also show they have a pretty deep wr corp still.

Did the raiders score yet?

I don't know how effective that will be as Raiders are playing more zone these days.()mixing their coverages) You have the speed the Raiders have in the secondary and almost everywhere on defense that is very dangerous to try and hit those receivers real quick. The Qb can't hold the ball that long as presure going to be coming real quick off the corner. The Bills play that 4-5 wr package . Your doing the Raiders a favor because your taking wlb Q Groves off the field and bringing in an actual football player. The Raiders are just going with their big Nickel defense They will bring in their Pass rushers (K Wimbley) and Trevor Scott at De. Tom Kelly/and R seymour will be tackles Fitzpatrick going to have to get that football out using three steps drop. SJerome boyd 6'2 225 will come in and play Rover lb/s Position . My guess he will be asked to pick up the Te. Mlb Rolando Mcclain will be MLB Chris Johnson and Stanford Routt will be outside Cbs. M Huff will be nickel Cb and Tyvon Branch will be SS and Giordano will be Fs. Raiders are going to show Fitzpatrick alot of diffrent things today. Expect zone blites which are very dangerous when Qb has to get rid of the football real fast. (what looks open might not be the case when Lineman drops back into coverage instead of rushing) Bills like the Broncos better be able to hold raiders to fieldgoals and not touchdowns. Thats there chance to keep it close an steal one late. Raiders should be able to put in a better red zone offenbse this week ,than they had in Denver Neither Bills DT is better than Tom Kelly right now and you will find out what im talking about today

For the millonth time Raiders will probably play with more two TE sets . I expect that to be standard against most of the 3-4 defense they play this year. Raiders have so many options . TE David Ausberry 6'4 245 4.47 who was a wr in college could just like up at wr. How would bills deal with something like this. LT Veldheer LG S Wisnieski c S Satele Rg C carlisle Rt K Barnes twp tes's Kevin Boss 6'6 255 and OT Bruce campbell 6'6 315 as extra te. Chaz Schilens 6'4 225 as single Wr with Marcel reece and Darren Mcfadden in backfield . Jason Campbell behind center.

The question is it true? Chargers got rid of the player for a reason. Didn't he get caughtr this offseason trying to bring that stuff across the border with canada. So what the problem we have to make like it never happened. Okay Shawn Merriman is a great player because of hard work.

I don't want to be disrespectful as I think Kyle Williams and Marcel Dareus(who was probably the best player in this draft) are very good players but if they played on the raiders they would be backups to Tom kelly and R seymour. Your just talking about better players at this point. We know roider- Shawn Merriman looks like he back on the cycle- sooner or later the nFl will catch him. Again Raiders DE have a bigger miss match against your Ot's. Good luck trying to throw the football when pressure getting there real fast. Raiders secondary not covering that long will be over your Wr's. When Raiders front four is living in your backfield you could have darren Mcfadden and it isn't going to matter. Rb is only as good as the oline in front of them.

How can you honestly say that what are Mrs Cleo or something. So your going to hold everyteam to seven points and have a game every week against other team running game like that. Serious doubt that. K Boss wasn't ready to play in week one? He will be playing this week what does that tell you, and whats so hard to understand. He had a somewhere between a first and second degree strain in his knee. The recovery time for that should have been last week. Raiders holded him out an extra week - big deal?

Someone tell someone from the ganggreen.com that i will be there neext week.

Again Raiders have faced the top Tes in the NFL(A Gates etc) and if they can handle them they can hndle a one game star in Chandler. IF just size was requirement raiders would just play their OT Bruce Campbell at TE 6'6 315 4.75 with 36 arm wingspan. Again I don't see chandler being a Problem anywhere whether its near the goalline or anywhere. Raiders Lb that aren't even good wlb Q Groves 6'3 265 4.4 something I would let him cover him all game. OR Even just pass rushing specialist Trevor Scott 6'5 255 . I really think your overhyping a guy who had one catch in three year in the league. (before last week game) What did he gain four inches in the offseason. He always had that height and has bounced around alot of Nfl teams. Raiders Te kevin Boss goes 6'6 and the reason he so more effective than Chandler he has speed to challenge a secondary, Too fast for Lbs and safetys and too big for Cbs. All Chandler has is height and that can only take you so far. He is not going to be that effective. I severly think you are overrating Scott Chandler. He a journeyman Te for a reason and you want that position addressed take care of it in next year draft. Like you did with Marcel Dareus. (great pick) Btw you do know that most Tes are 6'5 so your really grasping for straws that a safety ca't covera Te with that size.

Kyle Orton was Better qb than raiders QB. Did it really matter when you get dominated on both sides of the ball. Thats okay if you believe that in your heart, i just hope you don't put any money on that. That a whole diffrent story.

Five Reason Raiders will win this game 1. Raiders are going to win the battle at the line of scrimmage on both sides of the ball. Raiders Dline versus Bills Oline. Raiders Oline versus Bills defenseline. You do that in any league and your most likely going to win the game. 2. Raiders have just far superior athlethes than the Bills all across the board against the Bills, that it will show on the football field 3. Raiders have just too much in the running game for the Bills to deal with. Immaterial what you did against Chiefs running game because Raiders rushing attack is so much diffrent. Raiders run more power blocking scheme and play with extra Olineman as Extra Te alot.(6 olineman) They can get to the corners but they can also run with power up the middle. 4. With The return of Te Kevin Boss Raiders have something the Bills didn't have to acount for last week . Raiders have Te beside Boss that will be matchup problems for your defense. 5 Playaction after Raiders establish the running game will lead to big plays down the field to their Wr's. You can only cover speed so long and playaction creates that time. 6. Raiders kicking game is better than Bills kicking game. If Bills keep it close this might actually decide the game. I would have said field position battle but I would give your punter the edge in keeping it inside the twenty than raiders punter. BTw what tels you the chiefs are better than the Broncos(maybe last year) I know Denvers has been Raiders home away from Home the last four years. Still it counted as a road game as Raiders were at Denver. Lets see on national TV and in a hostile Arena with alot of guys getting their first taste of professional football. Raiders emotions should be alot more under control this week in Buffalo, Maybe better looking as I haven't looked that close at either teams players like that. So i will trust you on that one. Better talent no way as raiders talent is superior jmo.

All Chandler has going for him hes 6'7 263 with sun dial speed. Raiders have shutdown the top Safeties in the the Afc West and Chandler is a big downgrade to them. Raiders have LB that aren't even good that I would let them cover Chandler all game. Why even waste a safety on him. Your Wr's would lose a relay Race to Raiders secondary . S Routt 4.28 C Johnson 4.3 Tyvon Branch 4.41 M Huff 4.38 Wr Jacoby Ford 4.28 DHB- 4.3 Chaz Schilens 4.38 D Moore 4.38 5. L Murphy 4.4
