The difference is we don't go to fansites of equally crappy teams (the Jets and Raiders were equally as crappy last year) and talk smack. We don't pronounce our team as playoff calibur that is going to win the SB. We don't think every one of the moves made by the FO is above reproach (there are many that didn't like the Woody signing and Keller pick). We are not saying every one of our players are future HOFers and that we are deep at every position. We are not saying we have the best players in the league at every position. You are coming here, trolling and talking smack. You are the one with ZERO perspective and ZERO grammar skills. See the difference dumbass? And dipshit, stop trying to make McFadden out to be a sure thing. He hasn't taken one snap in the NFL. He is as likely a bust as any other rookie. It is called perspective.
Raiderjoe once again proving that acting retarded and absolutely clueless on an opposing team's message board isn't just a hobby for him, it's an addiction.
BT Had an 8.5 sack season 2 years ago and couldve had more than that....Pace had 6.5 sacks to along w/ nearly 100 tacklees last season. No one's saying their LT or Shawn Merriman for that matter..but they have the skills to get after the QB. Mangini has shown creativity w/ blitz packages to get after the QB...we now have the depth and the horses to be alot more successful at it. What the hell has Thomas Howard achieved since entering the NFL aside from being a starter for a horrid last place football team? I don't wanna hear the nonsense about 40 times, cone times or subjective athleticism details. You don't grant any of those leeways w/ jets players. I want stats. Actual accomplishments that support that he is better than any LB on the jets. Pro bowl appearances? Top Stat rankings? Post season awards? All i see is a top 5 interception count and a good number of tackles. But YOU arent willing to give David Harris the same credit despite having more tackles and more sacks in less games b/c he hasnt proven anything. Why should WE give Thomas Howard the benefit of the doubt? It's a bullshit double standard.
Joe - I don't mind you coming here to debate, discuss, argue and even attempt to patronize. But this thread is nothing more than trolling. This will get you banned. Consider this your last warning. Please take this seriously because even though you're a Raiders fan, this board just wouldn't be the same without you. I'm leaving this open because this has spurred on some relevant discussion, but Joe clearly this is not what you had in mind when you created this thread.
Jets will be decent and have a chance to be good or bad. I'm on the record of saying that the Raiders, having a worse record this past year then the Jets, will have a worse record and did as much as the Jets to help their cause. You have a number of question marks, from QB, to receiver, to DL, to even RB that your team is in no better position then the Jets to succeed. You're ignorant and your use of grammar is poor. Are you a 2nd grader? With the first pick in the 2009 draft, the Oakland Raiders select Raider Jeaux, idiot from Eastbumblef*ck, CA. Get a life man
Why is this ASS-CLOWN allowed to post here? I skipped to the end because, as I've said before, his posts are total BS.
