Ouch!


It seems like just yesterday I posting about an impressive 3-0 preseason record for my beloved Oakland Raiders. My how things change; we are now 0-2 and 2-14/3-13 seems inevitable.

There have been so many breakdowns that I would spend all day if I were to try and list them all. Obviously the O-line is the biggest concern. We have a huge line (avg ht/wt 6-5, 315) and the majority of them were drafted in the first three rounds. We have two coaches that are in the hall of fame for their O-line play. I thought for sure our line would be solid.

Going in to the season my biggest fear was the offensive coordinator Tom Walsh. He has not coached in the NFL since he was fired by the Raiders in 94 and it is evident. I hate to dump on a coaching staff after 2 games but OH the games. Hopefully Shell will not let Walsh drag him down this time like he did in 94.

Thank god for Fantasy Football!
