I say it every week.
I worry about every game. There's no team out there that we can't beat. And there's no tem out there that we can't lose to. I think we should win this game. But last year, we only beat them 31-24 even though we dominated the game. We need to dominate them again.

The only impact Davis's death will have on this game is that it will be a convenient excuse for the fans if the Texans lose.
If the Raiders win, I suspect it will be because the Texans are too one-dimensional without Dre Johnson, and the Raiders prove good enough to take advantage of that.

And one of those games we won was against you. Your team was 6-0 against your own division and 2-8 outside of it.
You should be worried. Quote:
Please explain why you think you're better than us. Becuase you guys have pretty much sucked since getting crushed by the Buccaneers in the Super Bowl.

DUde this is Pro Football and if you have noticed anything in the past ten years we know how to be losers and worry our little hearts out that the ghost of Al Davis will swoop down out of Heaven, or Hell and carry this football team to a victory. Grow a pair will you, We are going to send this raider nation home in funeral fashon with a Loss, Just like Al Davis did, He Lost now they are gonna lose plain and simple. I guess when we play he Packers Vince himself will encourage the team to beat us. NOPE we go into the game to win and that is that get your head out from between your legs.

Sure, I'm worried! But not because I think the Raiders will play harder because of the death of Al Davis. Most fans detested the owner, just like most of us old Oiler fans detest Bud Adams. They might respect him for the role he played in football all these years, BUT, i doubt many tears will be shed. I'm worried because its a GAME, and on any given Sunday anything can happen.

Texans won 6 games last year with the leagues toughest schedule and the worst pass defense. Raiders won 6 of their 8 within the division. The raiders have almost the same team that they did last year. The raiders not only have the worst run defense about to go against Arian Foster who had a great game against pittsburgh, they also have Jason Campbell who played against a wade phillips defense 2 times a year from 2007-2009. His results were less than stellar. Texans are 11-1 at home in october. Texans are 3-1, the only loss coming to the saints which they could have easily won that game. Granted 2 of their wins are to teams who, as of right now, have 0 wins, one of the wins was against the steelers last week and it is worth noting that despite all of the penalties being called against us, the texans were still able to put away big ben and the steelers. Raiders who are 2-2, beat the restarting denver broncos in the first game and they beat the jets at home. There is something different about the jets this year and I feel like this year wont be as good for them as it was in the past. The 2 losses were against the bills after blowing a huge lead and the patriots who absolutley dominated the game. Yeah like i said, "should win". We can still lose this game, but if we are the team were supposed to be then we should come out on top. |

I thought this was an Al Davis memoriam thread. I also thought we had a thread about the Raiders and our chances this week.
This thread.........screw it.

DeMeco's questionable. He MUST play. Otherwise McFadden will go from "probably" ripping us apart ot "definitely".
