Okay, here's two: mediocre quarter-back, mediocre offensive line.

Okay, here's two: mediocre quarter-back, mediocre offensive line.

Kerry Collins looked impressive last year in the second half of the season. True, he was no where in the season's first half, but adjusting to a new style of offense can do that to you. But consider the fact that he threw 16 touchdowns in the season final eight games. The Raiders have a Run and Gun type of offense, meaning they stretch the field rigorously and pound it up the gut, just like the old Raiders. And while 3 defenders on Moss, 2 on Curry and 2 on Porter that opens up big running lanes for the speedy and powerful Lamont Jordan. Kinda reminds me of Dorsey Levens. Offensive line...mediorce? Maybe last season, but I see some rising young talent and improving veterans.

Defensively, they still neeed to improve.

The WRs are friggin' fast that they will get downfield before Collins gets hit. All he has to do is throw the damn ball. I hope he can at least do that.

Holt, Bruce and Curtis are fast as wildfire, too... but you can see how a shitty offensive line affected Bulger.

quote Ghaleon

And, with him, Porter, and Moss, you have three guys who could potentially get 1,000 receiving yards between them.

Hah, please, there isn't anyway that all three of them are going to get 1000 Yards receiving, I say 1 will with the another being close. Collins has Teyo Johnson to throw to too, those aren't his only options.

I do like the Raiders Passing Game, but I'm not going to start throwing around similarities of them and the Colts.

quote Ghaleon

As for the secondary, Charles Woodson is the most over-rated piece of shit I've ever seen. The guy can't defend ANYONE.

What? Woodson is one of the top Cover Corners in the league. His statistics may not be as good, but that is because opposing teams were throwing at Buchanon. True his play has dropped, but that can be acredited to the fact that he is very unhappy playing for the Raiders as he wants a long-term contract, but gets slapped with the Franchise Tag year after year (Not that I'd be complaining XD). Not to mention He was the lone stud on defense, he can't do it all.

Thank you Cdemon...

Anyway...

Bulger, Rams, etc>Raiders, Slik the Tool

Slik, never will a team double-team Curry and Porter, and triple-team Moss all at once...

That's just plain stupid.

Well they're certainly going to need to.

It's called zone-coverage.

It's called I've seen Curry, Porter, AND Moss, burn zone.

quote I Am Steely Phil

steelix, there is a cheat NFL 2k5....Ergh, nevermind....

Really now, there is no need that bull shit.

I've watched some Raiders games unlike most people, and I've seen it happen. And I've seen Randy Moss play. Porter, Moss, and Curry are gonna burn that zone.
