The Oakland Raiders won't run a zone-blocking offensive scheme this season under new coordinator Greg Olson.


Darren McFadden rushed for a career low 3.3 yards per carry last season.


"I came in last year with my hopes super high," McFadden said Thursday. "They were just crushed. So I wanted to put that behind me and move forward."

"It's a downhill offense," McFadden said. "That's one of the things I like about it. I'm the type of guy I like to get going downhill, so I'm looking forward to it. I think it's going to be a great fit for our team.
