beetleron Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 no, the bills WON the game, the pats didnt hand it to them (21-7 at the half), pats D suck's and brady sucked too, but buffalo were better. as a patriots fan im glad this lose came so early, its time to do some things with our offense and defense. brady cant always pass the ball. (WES WELKER WAS GODLIKE) good win by the bills... nah......4 interceptions and you lose..........pretty simple and yes......the defense sucks big time...hopefully they'll figure something out Buffalo blows and is always gonna blow plain and simple Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strider Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 Hi all, Agreed. NE @ Oakland,.......! Strider? KB Hey, if Oakland can pick Brady off 4 times then the Raiders have a shot. It's in Oakland, so that's another thing in their favour...long cross-country flight for the Patriots. Still, the Patriots scare me...when their offense is clicking it is tough to stop them. In all fairness, Brady did not "suck" against Buffalo. It was more like bad bounces and freak deflections on some of those interceptions. And had that Buffalo TD counted at the end, does anyone doubt that Brady wouldn't have marched the Patriots right down the field to send the game to OT? I just hope the Raiders battle and don't get blown out. Patriots will be an angry and focused team this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walter Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 Just heard that Al Davis has passed away at the age of 82. Sad day for the Raider organization and the world of football as a whole. RIP Mr. Davis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strider Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 So it's true...Al Davis is dead. My feelings are conflicted...the man was legend, as I've previously enumerated his many accomplishments here before. But lately he seemed to hurt the team more than help. Every day is a silver and black day when you're a Raider fan, but this weekend will be a little blacker than usual. RIP Mr. Davis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't help but wonder if the Raiders got better the last year or so because Davis was too old or sick to be part of things. Maybe so, but it doesn't matter now anyway. Davis helped to build modern pro football and helped turn it into the game that it is today. For that alone he deserves cudos and praise. Old guys like me remember the old AFL....................

Old guys like me remember the old AFL.................... RIP, a live well lived. Amen to that, brother. I'm only old enough to have seen the last couple years of the AFL, first watching a game in 1968...Jets @ Raiders, as it happens. Talk about a thrilling finish...whew. The AFL had some crazy, innovative offenses back then: Houston Oilers, Los Angeles/San Diego Chargers, Kansas City Chiefs...yes, kids, Kansas City used to be good. Any football fan that hasn't, should read up on the history of the AFL...and watch the excellent 5-part documentary on the AFL: "Full Color Football", which is out on dvd, and reairings can also be seen on the NFL channel and Showtime. Getting ready to watch Raiders vs. Houston Texans(we're coming for you, Miss Melanie )...all NFL games will have a moment of silence for Al Davis. Howie Long, Terry Bradshaw and the Fox guys had some nice words and stories about Al. ESPN is full of ex-Broncos(Tom Jackson, Mark Schlereth) so it'll be interesting to see what their angle is on Al Davis' passing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strider, you remember the intensity of the KC and Oakland rivalry back in the day? I was born in KC and was an avid Chiefs fan as a kid. Those were some great games.

Those were some great games. Oh yes, indeed I do, jabe. But it took a few years. So while I started watching football...AFL first, then NFL...in 1968 and became a Raider fan, it wasn't until the 1970-71 seasons that I was old enough, and a regular reader of the sports pages, that I could understand and appreciate the nature of the division rivalries: Kansas City, Denver and San Diego. Those were some good, and sometimes bitter memories. Sometimes my team came out on top, sometimes your guys in red were victorious. Always hard fought games with incredible atmosphere. Hope your Chiefs get back on track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After the game they asked him about it and he said he isn't the type of QB that makes a DB miss, so he took a chance to win the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
