At the same time, please take a deep breath before over-reacting for the sake of making this a pleasant experience for everyone.

If you do you will have your account suspended.
I do not have the means to deal with legal issues and have already been contacted previously, so this absolutely needs to be adhered to. If you see any illegal links, please report them so a mod can remove them.
I thought it was fine though. Well that was a disappointing end. We get the ball first though. It just is annoying. Even when the OL blocks and they don't commit penalties we get a bad snap.
Because it's Oakland. You do realize who they are playing against right? The way that defense was playing early on, any competent offense would have put up a lot more than 3.
Do people forget we are playing one of, if not THE, worst teams in the league?
No proof that Josh McDaniels has no idea how to use his personnel, LaFell has played in the slot for 4 seasons, this season he is running Randy Moss deep routes.
Although I think Newton is on the cusp of top 5 just the same.
I am sorry but there are a levy of issues with this team right now. While some of us go overboard with our description in the heat of the moment, it doesn't take away from the core present issues.
That series was pathetic. They should have thrown the ball on 2nd down and then possibly try a run and use the timeout if the pass was incomplete. Either Tom is good and can make the short end zone pass or there is a problem... IMHO.
No, they weren't. Oakland was converting 3rd downs with ease. They didn't need to put up a ton of yards because we helped them along with penalties. They were still easily converting 3rd downs. The D seems to be playing better now. The Offense too. So no complains from me.
Dobson being scratched is not that ridiculous if you think about it objectively. Disappointing as it is, the Raiders have two significant weaknesses on defense - their run D and pass D in their secondary. The gameplan called for a more run based attack. For all the flack LaFell gets, he's one heck of a blocker and his prowess in that area was more important for a run-based attack-style gameplan.
Would hope that our success against the Raiders wouldn't hinge on whether or not we have a wr who is really just a blocker on the outside. Thought we might try to improve our horrendous passing game instead.
