Excited about Monday night vs. the hated Broncos!

Man we cleaned their clocks last season but this will be a new test and should give us an indication of where the team stands this season. Hard to say so far with a lot of the best players "kept in cellophane," with a new head coach, and with some good players gone and some new/developing players we need to step up.

The strength of the team - the running game - should match up well against Denver. Hope we get to see a lot of Jacoby Ford and a good dose of Taiwan Jones, in between McFadden busting loose in the secondary and Bush steamrolling guys between the tackles.

If there is one team I despise that's the Broncos... so I'm hoping for another fifty-point beatdown.

Our running game is about the only advantage I think we have. I like some of our key defensive areas vs. them, but the running game will need to shine tonight, and if not, we can chalk it up as a loss.

Anytime you win on the road its big. And against Denver, its that much sweeter. I hate the Broncos so much.

Gotta cut down on the penalties and stupid plays though. That roughing the passer was just dumb. Grr. Need to be disciplined! But, this is the Raiders were are talking about.

McFadden is a friggin beast though. Damn. He's become such a tough runner inside and out now.

Seymour is still a top 5-10 DT in the league. Monster.

I love our run D and I thought Routt was pretty damn solid at CB. That illegal touching/holding call was horrid.

Huge win against the Jets, especially after the heartbreaker in Buffalo.

I like our chances against New England, to be honest. It'll be a high scoring affair but McFadden cant be stopped by their garbage D and our receivers should have chances to get open downfield.

It'll come down to execution. Raiders gotta be smart and avoid the bad penalties. But with garbage like Chris Johnson out there, probably wont happen.

A win over Houston would be nice and bring some positive vibes to the team. Our Raiders have plenty of time to make it happen.

Huge win for the organization!

We need to keep growing as a team and get stronger.

Up Next, Cleveland.

Raiders will honor Davis on Sunday

The Oakland Raiders will honor Hall of Fame owner Al Davis at their first home game since his death last weekend.

Raiders CEO Amy Trask said Tuesday that the team will "honor and pay tribute" to Davis throughout Sunday's game against the Cleveland Browns. There are no specific details about what is planned.

Davis died Saturday at age 82. He had been part of the organization for all but three of the team's 52 seasons as either coach, general manager or owner.

Great win vs Cleveland. Up next is KC with Palmer at the helm.

Raiders are favored to beat KC by 4.5 points. Nothing is ever certain, so hopefully we win this, and rest up during the bye week. We won the previous two meetings.

Anyone else get the feeling or sense this is 1 of those classic "trap" games? Really need to win this one & after the bye against Denver 2 be going in strong/on a high note against the Chargers! :P! :)!

I'm expecting a big win here. 30-10 or so.

Raiders front-line is one of the best at getting to the QB. I want us blitzing Tebow at every opportunity. Knock that fool on his ass.

Bush is going to go crazy.

Bush should have a great game against Denver. I just hope we get to Tebow early and that Palmer has a good game. We need some positive vibes and this game is a must win, since we dropped the one to KC, and since the division is so close.

I can see Miami stealing one out from under KC this week and SD is facing Green Bay.

Go Raiders!
