What's worse than embarrassment? (Raiders)

Building up the O-Line a bit and adding a real WR threat are the Raiders' main concerns on the field.

Outplayed Buffalo for 3 quarters, outplayed San Diego for the 1st half... they have at times looked very, very good.

I'm glad the firing is done with. Stupid or not, at least it is DONE and we can move on from here.

Sucks that all the bull**** off the field is taking away from the fact that this team could actually be pretty damn good in a year or two.

thing is... it WONT be good. New coach, new system, no consistency for Russell, McFadden, etc.

Kiff said it in the beginning when he said he didn't have the talent on offense. We should have beat SD, and Buffalo. The debacle on the opening Monday night aside, The raiders are as good as anyone. They just didn't have the talent on the offensive side of the ball to convert on 3rd downs. McFadden is hurt, Fargas is hurt, the OL isn't good and nobody expected them to be good.

Kiffin was the closest thing to improvement we'll see until Mr. Al Davis passes away.

Davis needs to shut up and not bring all this **** up, it's childish and embarrasing.

Outplayed an undefeated and serious threat in Buffalo for 3 quarters (and they dominated on defense), outplayed a perennial AFC favorite in San Diego for the 1st half... I know that games are 60 minutes long but this is my point, the Raiders are NOT as bad as people think they are.

Sometimes I wonder why I still care about this team...

Phillip Rivers and Norv Turner both said that the Raiders were the best team they'd faced this season.

We had Buffalo beat, IN buffalo, and San Diego beat at home for 3 quarters.

Like USCKingsFan said, I know there is 4 quarters, but c'mon, if they were really bottom feeders, they'd have been blown out EVERY game.

How does the chorus in House of Cards go again?

Denial, denial...

good thing Kiffin was fired....

now instead of the Raiders sucking in the 4th quarter, we can suck all game!

raider fans laugh at my chiefs :\ waahhh
