even if McFadden gets over 150 yerds that will still only get oakland about 17 points not a nuff to beat Brady im looking for them to come out throwing the ball im not really worried about the run

There are only two players that should scare the Patriots... Run DMC and the rookie Denarius Moore. If the Patriots put 8 men in the box and call for run blitz's 60% of the time they will demolish the Raiders. Jason Campbell would rather throw the ball away than get hit.

I know that you're likely half-joking, but for all of the negativity that Guyton gets on this forum, he has been playing just fine. Actually, Guyton has been one of the brighter spots in his role playing reps--at least in my opinion.

He may not be the most effective at setting the edge, but he has quickness, awareness, veteran presence, and coverage skills that we need here. I know that he's let us down in some areas before, but I believe that the 2nd half of last yr + this yr particularly, he has continued to improve.

Are there any major plays that stick out to you that I am overlooking? As I admittedly have not been able to re-watch the tapes several times like some here. But on first glance, it seems to me as if Guyton is continuing to progress when playing his limited role in sub packages.

I hope but I wouldn't expect that because Bill Bellichik not dumb. You do what you say your going to get destroyed in the passing game. Your Best Cb not staying with Jacoby Ford . Chaz schilens 6'4 225 is too big and fast for your dbs and daren Hagan is going to trouble also. D moore going to be a nighmare for your cbs

Thats not counting Kevin Boss at TE. Taiwan jones at RB(sooner or later Raiders are going to utilize his explosiveness .( Raiders used this pick from patriots trade- Thanks0

BTW Jets tried that too to load up on run. Raiders went so fast down the field for a score with the pass. Never knew what hit them.
