First I would like to apologize for the lack of a Blog last week. I was under the weather due to the first raider win of the season. I had a mild heart attack and could not type due to doctors orders.
Quickly though lets just salute the total lack of coaching talent in Arizona. If Denny Green is not the most likely candidate to replace Art Shell (and yes they both will get fired very soon) then there is really something wrong in the Universe. What a disaster that team is in Phoenix. I mean you hold the bears to some stupid number on offense and then beat yourself with fumbles, defensive scores, kickoff returns and missed field goals. How precious. You have got to be looking for Green to get canned in the next week or so especially after the no show this week in Green Bay. Which I mentioned opens the door for the Shell firing Green hiring in Oakland.
Ok well on to this weeks huge win for the Raiders! Man they looked good didn't they 98 yards of offense and they win the game. Incredible consistency and the quality of football you've come to expect from this franchise. NOT NOT NOT. What a bunch of losers! My God it just goes to prove that every squirrel finds a nut ever so often doesn't it. Who's concussion do you think is worse Ben's, 4 interceptions to the worst defense in football, or Cower's leaving him out there and eventually losing the game.
Look at these stats:
That might pale, though, in comparison to what transpired in Oakland, where Roethlisberger completed almost as many passes to guys in silver-and-black uniforms as did his Raiders counterpart, second-year veteran Andrew Walter. That's right, Walter completed five, count 'em, five passes. The Oakland offense managed nine first downs, 98 yards and 2.0 yards per snap. And yet the Raiders prevailed 20-13 because of a 24-yard interception return for a touchdown by Nnamdi Asomugha and a 100-yard pickoff return for a score by Chris Carr.
Hey did anyone see Al Davis when the raiders intercepted the ball and ran it back for the TD? He set there like he was dead. As a matter of fact it reminded me of weekend at Bernies where they put the dead guy up there and attach strings to arms so he can wave. So I ask, is Al Davis still really alive? If so how is it possible that 1). Art Shell has a job 2). Jerry Porter is still a Raider 3.) they have not changed cities for 10 years. Think about it.
But lets not digress the raiders have won two games in a row and I have a theory for why.
Win one the Arizona cardinals come into town and as mentioned above are looking for a way to get rid of Denny Green by laying the blame on him so they lose to the raiders and then allow Green to "talk" to the raiders about a head coaching job to replace the "my players like me and respect me" Art Shell.
Win Two very simple put was due to Halloween the National Holiday for all Raider fans. Hell most of them think it is Halloween every Sunday. Then again half of those "costumes" are perhaps permanent and not costumes at all. If the Raiders can beat the defending SB champs with the team they put on the field it must be some kind of spell or curse or moon beam. Whatever, it is not from this earth. It is some shift in the universes.
Maybe the end is upon us...................................
Na, RAIDERS SUCK!
over and out!
