anybody have an idea why we wont commit to running the **** football?

Nope, no idea! Would be nice to get it going though & to have the Ravens D guessing!

20-17 Raiders at the 2 minute warning!

Ravens going at Niko Thorpe, but he's playing well. Defense can't let them drive the length of the field in 2 minutes though.

3rd and 15.

a run just to gain yardage before the punt turned into 3 points.

Hopefully we can turn things around in the 2nd half! GO RAIDERS GO!

Mack out :/

In this 90 degree heat, not running the football up 7 with 13 minutes to go was begging for this to happen.

Oh the defense is gassed.
Yea, no ****. That's why you run the **** football at that point and control the clock.

Seth Roberts FTW!

RAIDERS WIN!!!!!!!!! INT BABY!!!!!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! ! ! !

Derek Carr was amazing today.

One of the reasons I REALLY REALLY like that kid even though he has not arrived yet is because I see the leadership and mental toughness in him.

That late INT would have broken most QBs in general…not just young QBs…he stood up like a G and led us down field after that with great throw after great throw.

3 points of contention for Quake Griff.

1) L. Murray got 15 carries this Sunday….that's not enough. Yes our offense scored points and gained yards but we didn't completely control the game like I thought we could have. The run was working. Murray had 65 yards on those 15 carries.

2) We've got some work to do on defense. We don't get pressure up the middle and I think that makes life for Mack and Aldon much harder. With that said, we did just face two really good offensive lines so I'm not gonna scream to the high heavens until we fail to get a pass rush against a bad o-line.

3) In conjunction with point 2). Time to invest in a quality 3 technique. Hell. A situational pass rusher in the later rounds of this summer's draft woulda been ok.

Yeah we didn't do much to establish the run. Which is strange seeing how Murray really, really fights hard for yardage. Crabtree has hands like a vice, what a game from him. Cooper was great but largely ignored in the 2nd half, Carr stared Crabtree down a lot and forced it towards the end. But Crabtree earned it.

Defense was pretty bad across the board. Hayden/Carrie/Thorpe had their moments and lowlights. Woodson and Asante started off brutal, did better towards game of ends. LBs had a subpar game, DL was solid.

Great win, good chance at 2-1 next week. Manziel made 2 hail mary throws today but did little else.

Can't get a pass rush going. But I'll take the W.

It's Broncos week! This is my favorite (most despised?) rivalry, though it hasn't been pretty in recent years, with Peyton Manning picking us apart. He gets the ball out too damn quick.

Besides being a heated rivalry, this is a really important game in gauging the Raiders' status this season. A lot of Raiders are injured. It may be too much to ask for a win. What I don't want to see is the Raiders get blown out at home vs. a Division rival.

Carr has done well against pressure, I hope we can burn them for some big plays when they blitz. On the other hand I have a feeling this may the game a feeble Broncos offense finds its groove.

Dodgers taking years off my life.

Looks like Jelly is gonna be out again.
Geez can we get some continuity on the line? sheesh.
