Week 14 Game Thread - Oakland Raiders at SD Chargers (2 Viewers)

[Onions]

Why did the Raiders even bother showing up if they're going to play this poorly. Every one of those players that accepts their game check is a thief. Feel sorry for Raider nation.........

Your statement actually comes full circle, as most of Raider Nation are thieves too.

Al Davis is a TOTAL embarrassment to the NFL and what it stands for

Wait until he gets his hands on Plastic Bird#### and Micheal Vick.

That's going to be one heck of a prison team.

It's sad when William Clay Ford is saying we are 0-13 but at least we are not DA Raiders

Al Davis is a TOTAL embarrassment to the NFL and what it stands for

He did revolutionize the league and eventhough he's kinda gone crazy last few years does command respect for all that he has done. He's one of the major reasons the NFL is so succesful today. <_< I totally disagree but thats just me though.

What you're saying is true, but I think Al Davis has become an embarrassment. A huge one. It's like watching Nature Boy Ric Flair wrestle when he's 50+ years of age. Used to be one of the best, but now he's just sad, pathetic and kind of creepy.

Agree. Why would fans buy tickets to see this???

 

[money.never.sleeps]

Hey can the backup QB, Walter? Do anything?

At Arizona St. on occasion... As a Raider, very seldom <_<

Well he can't be any worse than Russell right?

Looks like we're about to see.. Russell OUT.. Walter in. this should be good.

 

[the spanker]

Come on Raiders....SCORE!!!

 

[money.never.sleeps]

Come on Raiders....SCORE!!!

2nd and 20.Getting 1st down would be more realistic.

 

[Pat Patriot]

Dont worry. The Raiders put together a drive and then have a nice holding penalty to set them back.

 

[SteveUD98]

Did someone say Miller got hurt???

 

[R Dizzle]

Did someone say Miller got hurt???

He's back in.

 

[Onions]

Did someone say Miller got hurt???

Zack Miller was hurt (get his bell rung) on a Russell INT, but is back on the field to start the 2nd half.

Well at least Walter looks better than Russell at the QB spot.

 

[Jeff Pasquino]

Shane Lechler is underpaid.

Take notes Gates, you wussy. this aint no b-ball court.

 

[Sonny Lubick Blowup Doll]

Is Russell really not coming back? Damn, I started him.

 

[EdwardCat]

So, when do they start passing to LT? Another drive, a few yards closer to 3.0 ypc against a terrible run defense for LT. This is painful.

 

[the spanker]

Hey if the Raiders get another lucky score, it would turn into a ball game here.

 

[Jeff Pasquino]

A little surprised McFadden isn't getting more work. At least see what he can do.

 

[Jeff Pasquino]

Shane Lechler is underpaid.

See?

 

[the spanker]

Can LT get a few catches here? Please?

 

[smcindoe]

Can LT get a few catches here? Please?

Have you watched the Chargers this year?The answer is no, he can't. He can get open in the flat, at which point Rivers will overthrow him by 20 yards and then make pouty faces.

 

[EdwardCat]

I can't see the game. Is LT sucking because he simply blows ### now or because his o-line is doing its typical terrible job?

 

[renesauz]

Had very little rooting interest in this game, so I let the kids have the LR TV until bedtime, and just turned the game on.

Has it been as bad as the score? Cause it doesn't look so pretty......

 

[EdwardCat]

Sproles in!

Guess we'll see what Sproles can do, then let the numbers decide.

Man, that is SOOOOOO true!!! The entire year in a nutshell on LT getting passes!

IMHO the O-line just isn't physical and LT doesn't have that full burst we are accustomed to.

Sproles didn't do much there. That OL just isn't doing anything.

 

[JoeyJoeJoeJrShabadoo]

This game officially sucks.

 

[Touchdown Syndrome]

I've had him since his rookie year in '01.....and this might be the last game LT ever starts for me.

And I don't think I've ever seen a football player whine, scream, pout, and stomp around as much as Rivers. Clearly, though, Norv Turner is infatuated with him.

The predictable play calling isn't doing them any favours either. 1st down run up the gut: 4 yd gain.2nd down run up the gut: +/- 1 yd3rd down throw 40 yds down field: flip a coin.rinse, repeat.

I'm in the same boat as you regarding LT. This will probably be the last game he starts for me. He's simply done. I wonder if he's embarrassed at his inability like a old dog is when it accidentally pees on the carpet.

Agree with you there. Collins or it was someone questioned, why does LT go out so much during the game? That is interesting....

I didn't know Brad Childress was allowed to coach 2 teams...

Man, that is SOOOOOO true!!! The entire year in a nutshell on LT getting passes!

Entering this game, LT had 44 catches on 62 targets for the season. Those 44 catches were #4 among all RBs.

 

[the spanker]

LT had good burst there until Gates got caught holding.

 

[Fantasy Bum]

Well Gates is alive after all. Holding on # 85. Too bad no fantasy points for that.

 

[EdwardCat]

Sproles back in.

 

[EdwardCat]

LT had good burst there until Gates got caught holding.

Burst for a gain of zero?

 

[JoeyJoeJoeJrShabadoo]

LT had good burst there until Gates got caught holding.

He ran out of bounds at the end like a #### anyway. Coulda had a few more yards, not that it counted. Looks like Laurence Maroney out there.

 

[the spanker]

Sproles isn't doing much either.....man that OL is WEAK!!!

 

[TheRegulator]

Must not be watching on TV....must have been about 15 yards

He ran out because the whistle blew dude...give him a break there.

Sorry, no, nfl.com states it was for no gain.

Whatever you say, Researchy McFacts'n'Figures.

 

[Touchdown Syndrome]

Right on. Most of LT's problems come from that o-line and Norv. Skills-wise, he's still a top back. Not MVP-god of a couple of seasons ago, but still better than 95% of the RBs out there.

 

[EdwardCat]

Do we see LT or Sproles here?

 

[the spanker]

Anyone got a stream? Mine went out.

 

[Meat]

Definitely the line - LT looks pretty solid, but the line is HORRID once again tonight.

 

[Sonny Lubick Blowup Doll]

From the looks of things in here, LDT is gonna be a steal next year...
