    WHAT RAIDERS FANS ARE SAYING

    If you are just tuning in… we are about 5 mins in, the Rams are going for about 20 yards a play, we can get a 3rd and 1 conversion, and we are down 14 points

    Brian Schottenhymen is looking like a bonafide OC

    How many plays will the Rams score on this drive. Over/under is 5. I’ll go with 6.

    It’s funny that we dial up short passes behind the line of scrimmage with slow receivers but the rams do it with fast receivers and get positive yards

    Bailey with a career high game in the first quarter, what a joke

    Ok my 45 to 3 score prediction may not have been high enough.

    The way this is going Bailey could break Flipper Anderson’s 338 yards receiving in a game by the half
    2nd Qtr.
    The Rams know how to tackle.

    was Janikowski eating a polish sausage or something and couldn’t get on the field for a fg attempt?

    Rams should score in 9 plays this time.

    over half way to my 45 to 3 prediction

    Your going to need to switch the 4 and the 5 around…

    we need to have a ferguson type protest in front of raiders facilities
    What do you folks think the final score will be? After watching 1 1/2 quarters?
    52 – 10.

    I’m gonna go drill holes in my teeth

    They have nearly twice as many TDs as we have first downs.
    And keep in mind this is a sub-500 Rams team with their 2nd string QB.

    Why are the Broncos playing in St. Louis and wearing Ram jerseys?

    Finally, HALFTIME!

    Ray Ray – making the tackle – BEAST!!!

    Saffold is injured…. Thank you MARK for stepping in on RM and nixing that signing.

    Chris Long aka Ric Flair stylin & profiling….

    Getting the sinking feeling we won’t even score a point in this game…

    I knew we should’ve drafted Tre Mason….

    Love how the lambs who are absolutely killing us have the unmitagting gall to throw a bomb.

    good thing fisher called the dogs off

    Well, yup, Schaub sucks. We didn’t know that for sure.

    Maybe they will have mercy and punt to us on 3rd and 1

    6. New England Patriots 59-0 Tennessee Titans Oct. 18, 2009
    6. Los Angeles Rams 59-0 Atlanta Falcons Dec. 4, 1976
    10. Seattle Seahawks 58-0 Arizona Cardinals Dec. 9, 2012
    20. Miami Dolphins 52-0 New England Patriots Nov. 12, 1972

    looks like it’s tied for the 4th worst shutout loss in the post merger era.
    Looks like it’s the Raiders worst shutout loss in history. We got to witness history. That’s fun, right?

    52-0 is a bad score. There aren’t too many 52-0 games.
    Well the winning streak had to end sometime I guess.

    last 3 home games: Rams 28, 22, 52 points vs. 33 total allowed

    Per game last three games

    PF = 34

    PA = 11

    The losses to SD, AZ, Dal just killed this season. Too bad, because of all the crap they have put out there (particularly the Minnesota game), there has been some truly impressive moments.

    ———-
    badnews

    52 to Zip… with only 183 passing yds.

    Under 200 passing yards and we win by 52?

    I wonder how many times that has happened!

    Nothing says “Team Win” quite like that.

    They should start handing out sunglasses at Rams games… you know… ’cause the future…..

    AFC West games 10-12 . . .These honestly deserved to be done together (that’s what I tell myself to manage my feeling of lagging).

    We have played really well three games in a row, and the one loss had some of the worst officiating I have ever seen. Even the n we were one bad read away from pulling that one out.

    Since we were relatively consistent, I think it’s fair to do all three games at once.

    The Great

    1) D line. Besides some questionable non calls and runs by the Chargers Mathews, I havent seen our D line play better, ever. Donald is creeping into pro bowl and DROY conversations, and if he finishes strong I believe he should get the DROY. Quinn has finally picked it up, and is getting around the corner at full speed. Chris Long being back was an obvious shot in the arm. You can’t replace heart and focus.

    2) Stedman Bailey finally recovered from his suspension. He’s a good #2 to have, and really removes our need for a high end WR, even if Britt departs.

    3) Gaines. While I get a tad disappointed that Jenks isn’t our best defender, that’s likely just a “jersey bias” since I wear his number every week. Gaines is likely going to finish close to top ten in overall CB rating from PFF. He should be getting pro bowl buzz, but as a 6th round rookie it’s not going to happen. He is our “straight man”. Jenks is a superior athlete, and can have the best athlete receivers, but Gaines will always lock down the security blanket. And while Jenks may need a safety net over the top, I doubt that Gaines will. I am surprised by the fact that he fell to the 6th, but even more surprised by his mistake free play.

    4) Playcalling. We’ve been getting guys the ball in the right way.

    5) Did anyone else hear the story of how Davis took the news of returning to backup, and how the team responded? That’s why they show up to play every week. We have good people.

    The Good

    6) Mason seems to have solidified his position, though I am still a huge Stacy fan.

    7) The secondary has been cleaning up the missed assignments and punishing receivers. Very few YAC.

    8) Greg Robinson had given us a decent peek at what we’re going to have at OLT for the next decade. He is a punisher.

    9) Jared Cook has been focused, and Kenny Britt has been coming through big. Just not many drops by the receiving corps.

    10) Penalties are down.

    11) Special Teams is playing tighter, besides the fact that our fakes and strategy stand out as a really amazingly powerful asset.

    12) Shaun Hill is playing mistake free football, and we’ve still gotten good reps for Davis.

    13) Mark Barron is integrating into our big nickel pretty well.

    14) Trumaine Johnson and INTs, great job.

    15) GZ’s field goals have been steady.

    The Bad

    15) TJ’s dropped INT.

    16) We did not figure out how the Chargers were blocking us for a long time into the game.

    17) Too little too late. Seriously we could be in the hunt, and we were close in a lot of games.

    18) We need O line depth, and we don’t have it after bringing a lot of players in.

    The Ugly

    19) Reffing in the Chargers game was the worst I have ever seen.

    quick comment on the rams “do not shoot” protest…no big deal ..reminded of the John Carlos/Jimmy Smith raised fist during their awards ceremony at the 1968 Olympics…do hope they( and posters) read the transcripts and evidence report 1st(available online) before forming an opinion and the rams players talked to team leaders, both black and white, before they acted…

    want to see something scary watch the cop in the background as Tru Johnson was celebrating his int…in serious need of a timeout.. Bothered me enough I called McCulloughs office.

    back to football….

    fun game to watch BUT Oakland gave zero effort…they still looked hungover from their 1st win. Their effort spoke volumes about their lack of veteran leadership. Still for a young team like the rams wins like this go a long way in developing confidence.

    read a pro football focus blog on the of best single season of qb’s passing under pressure..Found the expected guys, Peyton Manning, Rivers, Brady, Warner ect…what I also found was Shaun Hills name in 2010 at Detroit… quick look at this years stats shows the same thing..very little difference in passer rating under pressure vs zero pressure Being able to handle pressure is in a qb’s DNA..either they have it or they don’t

    Cooks snaps are vanishing since Hill became qb…playing 57.6, 56.1 and 53.6% of time after avg close to 75% under Davis…also more passes outside the hashmarks..Fisher talked about how Hill is comfortable changing plays at the line of scrimmage… just wish he was 5 years younger

    rewatched the game to key on Robinson -18 as a LT..brutal run blocking. Not sure he actually hit anyone. Something to watch going forward.

    also we were playing Barron at slb even on some running downs. Dunbars snaps the last 3 weeks 1, 4 and 14. Watching it looked like McDonald got some snaps at fs in the game…McCleod had 2 more missed tackles vs the Raiders. think the clock is ticking on McCleod and Dunbar.

    Bailey has a great 71.4 % catch rate and is +1.8,+3.7 and +2.4 in his last 3 games…funny Hill and Bailey worked all camp together with the 2’s…think it helped?

    notice Pettis hasn’t been picked up yet? Sure good enough to play for Oakland. Wonder what teams know that we don’t… I called it a purge when we cut Armstrong and Pettis…team has played better since.

    anyone care to explain why we are carrying 5 te’s?

    a win on the road next week will be a big step forward for the team
