I don't think that should've been called. But they missed an interference call later (that same possession I think?) on Berrian again that should've been called.

Did I not say that Jackson would've blown it anyways? The Vikes lost cus they have no offense outside of Peterson.

the refs have been particularly awful in this first week of action but if i was the vikings id be worried about the horrible coaching, awful special teams and undescribable QB play

Mike, Mike, and Mike are the worst play by plays I've heard in awhile.

And where was the holding call? Just cost the Raiders the TD and the ball.

I'm muting the T.V., it's bad enough listening to Kornheiser the entire game, but this is even worse (all 3 suck).

eddie royal is taking over this game, denagelo hall is not smart

High 5 · Post #226 » by **High 5** » Tue Sep 9, 2008 3:32 am

I thought Hall would put the pointless 15 yard penalties behind him. He has all the tlaent in the world, it's a shame he's stupid.

Mr Smoke Weed · Post #227 » by **Mr Smoke Weed** » Tue Sep 9, 2008 3:49 am

for real hall is an idiot, i thought when he got his ass kicked by his teammates last year then traded itd be a wake up call
apparently not

High 5 · Post #228 » by **High 5** » Tue Sep 9, 2008 4:01 am

I have seen just about every game of Hall's career, I have seen him get thrown around like a ragdoll against Terrell Owens, I have seen him get 60+ yards of penalties on one drive, but this is honestly the worst I have ever seen him play. Especially against a small receiver like Royal. Now he finally knows how Jason Webster felt. :lol:

And seeing Greg Knapp on the sidelines brings back terribe memories. I'm amazed he still has a job in this league, even with the Raiders.

wow im shocked how bad the raiders secondary is

The Raiders are **** awful. Someone throw in the towel and stop this embarrassment.

Royal was not that good in college.

This is getting comical now.

LOL @ anyone picking against us..I heard too many people pick the Raiders this week..we were 7-9 last year and that was a TERRIBLE year..we should be a lot better..

our D still needs some work..but with Marshall playing, there's NOBODY in the NFL that should be able to stop our offense..our O-line looks solid..Marshall is one of the most unstoppable WR's in the NFL..Eddie Royal is a playmaker..Cutler is probably going to be top 5 QB by the end of the year IMO..

we'll contend for the wildcard..

btw, I know it's just the Raiders..

The Raiders paid Gibril Wilson $39 million, DeAngelo Hall $70 million, franchise tagged Asomugha for $9.8 million this season (I believe, not sure) and drafted Huff #7 overall for this?!?

Despite garbage protection, drops, and no real help, Jamarcus looks pretty good, hanging onto the ball a bit to much at times, but considering the circumstances, I like what I see.

Wizards2Lottery · Post #236 » by **Wizards2Lottery** » Tue Sep 9, 2008 4:53 am

I like how the three Mikes spent the whole game ripping the Raiders apart.

The Raiders suck, we get it... stop acting as if they were Super Bowl bound and this is a huge surprise.

Al n' Perk No Layups! · Post #237 » by **Al n' Perk No Layups!** » Tue Sep 9, 2008 4:59 am

Wow, terrible play call on fourth and one.

Al n' Perk No Layups! · Post #238 » by **Al n' Perk No Layups!** » Tue Sep 9, 2008 5:06 am

Gibril is realizing the cost of the 39 million contract he signed. The money will make his experience bearable and in the long run it will be the right decision (not because the Raiders will turn it around, but because he has a life after football he needs to plan for), but tonight he probably wishes he was still playing for the Giants.

Cutler is a stud. I'm really hoping he takes that step forward this year that so many have predicted him to take. Should be interesting to see the Broncos against a better opponent. Their run D is still a major concern, but can't complain about the offense.

People thought it was all hype when they were whispers before the 2006 NFL Draft that Cutler was better than Leinart and Young. It's pretty clear now who's the best QB out of that bunch.
