[theguy77]

[bostonryan]

Still hoping for Brady to get hurt

[xbrokendownx]

[Drew Beringer]

[poppa Q]

That was great.

[IcedOpethBlind]

i'm going to have to go with yes considering a few pages ago he was rooting for the jets who are not even playing tonight

[preppyak]

Man, I feel bad for Bills fans...they had that game for 57 minutes

[Mibabalou]

i'm going to have to go with yes considering a few pages ago he was rooting for the jets who are not even playing tonight

X-)

[xbrokendownx]

Jets Tied For First Motherfuckerzzzz




holy shit go the fuck away

[SwiftSilentDead]

Another Monday night heartbreaker for the Bills.

[IcedOpethBlind]

Mike & Mike commentating? have to see how this goes..

[Drew Beringer]

Really like the silver outlined in black on those retro Raider jerseys.

[Drew Beringer]

Mike & Mike commentating? have to see how this goes..
They've done this in the past, they are pretty good.

[preppyak]

They've done this in the past, they are pretty good.
yeah...wasn't Ditka with them last time?

I think Steve Young should be good as an analyst, cause Golic is terrible in real time analysis, but the two Mikes do a good job calling the action and keeping a boring game interesting

[IcedOpethBlind]

They've done this in the past, they are pretty good.

i thought so, didnt they do the commentary on the first week last year as well for (i think) Broncos vs. Raiders?

[Drew Beringer]

i thought so, didnt they do the commentary on the first week last year as well for (i think) Broncos vs. Raiders?
yep

[SwiftSilentDead]

Yeah, they've done the first late game on MNF for the past three years I think.

[bostonryan]

Okay, now the Raiders need to have a good game and beat the Chargers. I want to see Merriman and L.T. limping off the field

[bostonryan]

The new Raiders jerseys are sick. I like the silver pants as well

[xbrokendownx]

im loving these Raider uni's

[xbrokendownx]

eric weddle played on every single defensive snap last year? is that for real?

[J.C.]

lol JaMarcus

[bostonryan]

"intercepted by Quentin Jammer" never heard that sentence before... haha

[Mibabalou]

well 5 minutes into 2009 looks like oakland still sucks

[preppyak]

4:55 for Russel to show how terrible he is gonna be this season

[0101]

The new Raiders jerseys are sick. I like the silver pants as well

im loving these Raider uni's

Agreed.

4:55 for Russel to show how terrible he is gonna be this season

I didn't like him as starting quarterback at LSU either.

[MyWorldEntire]

Okay, now the Raiders need to have a good game and beat the Chargers. I want to see Merriman and L.T. limping off the field

Stop hoping for people to get hurt.

[Mibabalou]

both the jerseys are amazing why did all the jerseys look 10x better 30 years ago

[bostonryan]

both the jerseys are amazing why did all the jerseys look 10x better 30 years ago


This is the first time I remember the Raiders having a jersey that was detailed and didn't look like the mesh shirts you wore in gym class. The plain black with no graphics and just silver numbers was so boring

[IAmNietzche]

Glad the Pats won, sad I lost my money.

[Mibabalou]

This is the first time I remember the Raiders having a jersey that was detailed and didn't look like the mesh shirts you wore in gym class. The plain black with no graphics and just silver numbers was so boring

very true

[Until The Bombs]

Is this game being played in the Twilight Zone?

[TEAMRAMROD]

DMC is looking good.

[anamericangod]

peace bills

hahahahahah oh my god. thats so sad.

that was just painful to watch.

lol my god

Hahahaha that was nuts.

hahaha Bills, they always fail.

wow, two sacks on the final drive...tough finish for Edwards

:-(

[livethesounds]

Raiders offense looks pretty good when Russell isn't being terrible.

[livethesounds]

the Raiders run game looks great. They got a bit of smash and dash themselves with DMC and Bush.

[The Raine]

Oh my goodness, stop the run.

[preppyak]

:-(
Yeah, that's rough...but, I wonder if as a Buffalo fan you sort of expect it to happen? Like when you saw McKelvin come out, the Bills part of your brain screams "fuck, there goes the game". Or is it too early in the season?

[preppyak]

holy shit Sproles took off there

[The Raine]

SPROLES!

x

[bostonryan]

The Raiders really need their own stadium to be taken seriously. The baseball dirt on the field makes it look like one of the multi purpose fields towns use for soccer, baseball, and football

[The Raine]

Wow. Fumble LT. Wow.

[TEAMRAMROD]

Wow.The Raiders aren't playing around.

[bostonryan]

Its only week 1, but Raiders fans must be getting a little excited by how awesome the defense and running game have been doing.


Also, predictions on the years / dollar value of Seymour's extension with the raiders?

[anamericangod]

Yeah, that's rough...but, I wonder if as a Buffalo fan you sort of expect it to happen? Like when you saw McKelvin come out, the Bills part of your brain screams "fuck, there goes the game". Or is it too early in the season?

When I saw him hesitant for a moment, I thought it might be a bad decision just because he might only end up getting to the 10 or 15. Running out of the endzone was the right decisions because it was needed to burn off a few seconds to the two minute warning, so the Pats would have to use all their timeouts. When I saw that he fumbled, I knew it was over.

So yes. As a Bills fan, a two touchdown lead with minutes left in the game gives me no comfort at all. It only makes me more nervous. Something incredible always seems to happen that fucks them in the final moments when the win looks like it should be theirs.

It doesn't make it hurt any less. I truly feel miserable right now.

[TSTLSOOM]

oh no, i got a bad feeling about this...

[xbrokendownx]

oh no, i got a bad feeling about this...



http://www.music-lyrics-chord.com/cover/Taking_Back_Sunday_Where_You_Want_T o_Be.jpg

[The Raine]

Where's the pass rush?

[TSTLSOOM]

http://www.music-lyrics-chord.com/cover/Taking_Back_Sunday_Where_You_Want_T o_Be.jpg


lol not gonna lie, i laughed haha

[TSTLSOOM]

Where's the pass rush?


idk... it was kinda gone last year too. ugh.

[TSTLSOOM]

am i the only Chargers Fan that hate the broncos more then the Raiders?

[TSTLSOOM]

COOOOOOPPPP haha. there we go, now lets keep that up

[TSTLSOOM]

CHargers ball. hmm. i blame the field for the two fumbles haha

[The Raine]

Drop it like it's hot.

[The Raine]

am i the only Chargers Fan that hate the broncos more then the Raiders?

No.

dont really follow the bills, are they the footballs Mets?

[TSTLSOOM]

GATES. awww damm

[TSTLSOOM]

phew. tied it back up

[MyWorldEntire]

Down at the fucking half yard line, I really needed that passing touchdown.

[TSTLSOOM]

Down at the fucking half yard line, I really needed that passing touchdown.

Tough Luck. my uncles team needed that too. i think hes got either gates or rivers idr who. prob gates

[bostonryan]

I'm LOVING this game. JaMarcus Russel seems like he is finally coming into his own

[TEAMRAMROD]

Welcome to the NFL Murphy.

[TEAMRAMROD]

Ouch.

[duhpunk]

wowwwwwww

[The Raine]

That was a TD. Awful call. But I'll take it.

[MyWorldEntire]

What an awful awful call, how can they possibly justify that?

[CarlosLunes]

terrible call

[bostonryan]

Terrible, terrible call. I don't know what replay these ref's were watching

[theguy77]

can you guys say bullshit on that call? seriously, he got it tucked securely under his arm, AND got two feet down, before he even hit the ground. in the end zone it doesnt even matter whether it came out afterward in the first place.

[Scott Weber]

how is that not a TD? i don't get that.

[bagwell5]

2nd worst call in the history of the NFL... worst being the "tuck" rule.

[SwiftSilentDead]

That was one of the worst overturned calls I have ever seen.

[FallOutBoyPunch]

That was awful. So awful. Why do referees hate the Raiders?

Answer: Al Davis.

[The Raine]

Even considering the bad call, I'm surprised we're not getting annihilated. We just look awful. More massive underachievement from the San Diego Chargers.

[TSTLSOOM]

Even considering the bad call, I'm surprised we're not getting annihilated. We just look awful. More massive underachievement from the San Diego Chargers.


so true. but i rememebr last year rivers warms up second half.

[joeag1985]

Tom Brady. Legend.

[bostonryan]

Tom Brady. Legend.


Well, he WAS on the Simpsons after all...


http://thesportshernia.typepad.com/blog/images/2007/08/21/tom_brady.jpg

[rcrook]

The NFL finally paying us back for the Hochuli call

[TSTLSOOM]

what a catch lol

[TSTLSOOM]

The NFL finally paying us back for the Hochuli call


we dont need it. the bolts did what they needed to in the playoffs and that was beat the colts haha

[joeag1985]

Well, he WAS on the Simpsons after all...


http://thesportshernia.typepad.com/blog/images/2007/08/21/tom_brady.jpg

Exactly. The true barometer of legendness. I know it's not a word ha.

[TSTLSOOM]

Ugh

[bostonryan]

What a play by the Raiders. Nice int. Rivers has been a mess tonight. Week 1 hasn't been to kind too starting quarterbacks haha

[The Raine]

Oh look, a Chargers turnover.

:appl:

[MyWorldEntire]

despite the ball coming out on that play that was overturned, hadn't he already established possession?

[MyWorldEntire]

My fantasy team was projected to get 84 points. I have 36 points.

[TEAMRAMROD]

My fantasy team was projected to get 84 points. I have 36 points.
Ouch.

[Talib Scottie]

Rivers has been just a little off tonight, but so has the entire SD offense.

[J.C.]

Oakland has a terrible passing game combination: a quarterback who struggles to hit open guys and receivers who don't catch the ball when he actually does.

[Talib Scottie]

I think Philip said "get off my fucking mouthpiece."

[TEAMRAMROD]

JaMarcus has a ridiculous arm.

[Talib Scottie]

I know JaMarcus Russel is a huge guy and everything but if he's lead blocking you've got to lay into him. Ridiculous to get dominated by a QB like that.

[TEAMRAMROD]

Look at that block.

[bostonryan]

After that JaMarcus Russel block, I firmly believe everyone on the Raiders can lay nasty hits haha

[The Raine]

lol @ the ESPN commentators creaming themselves over the Raiders.

[J.C.]

After that JaMarcus Russel block, I firmly believe everyone on the Raiders can lay nasty hits haha

He's probably 6'6", 270. You better be able to hit if you're the size of an offensive tackle.

[bostonryan]

He's probably 6'6", 270. You better be able to hit if you're the size of an offensive tackle.


Holy shit seriously? How is he still so fast?

[TEAMRAMROD]

Holy shit seriously? How is he still so fast?
He ran a 4.84 at his combine. Impressive considering his size.

[atainder]

C'mon Raiders.. so close.

[The Raine]

thankyouthankyouthankyouthankyoutha nkyou

[Talib Scottie]

Nice!

[MyWorldEntire]

Good sign. Unfortunately I'm going to come up one Rivers to Jackson TD connection short.

[J.C.]

I think Rivers meant to throw that further out towards the corner of the end zone. Lucked out.

[J.C.]

Greenberg has been flubbing McFadden and Bush all night.

[Drew Beringer]

oof JaMarcus' leg

[TEAMRAMROD]

Wooooo Higgins got popped.

[J.C.]

Good hit by Weddle.

[Talib Scottie]

What a hair cut.

[bostonryan]

Jamarcus!!!!

[Talib Scottie]

Horrible miscommunication by the secondary.

[MyWorldEntire]

Hahahha Chargers.

[J.C.]

LOL San Diego is terrible.

[Drew Beringer]

WOW TD on fourth down, lol San Diego

[TEAMRAMROD]

I'm waiting for the refs to call that back.

[The Raine]

................................... ..........

[atainder]

YEEEES! Hold on D!

[S9Dallasoz]

Ha, wow.

[MyWorldEntire]

If Rivers throws a touchdown pass to Vincent Jackson on this drive, I will pull off the most remarkable fantasy comeback I've ever seen.

[SwiftSilentDead]

Sproles is having a lot of trouble fielding kickoffs.

[J.C.]

I know this doesn't make as much sense in hindsight, but the Raiders were retarded for even going for it.

[RyanFTW]

Rivers has two minutes. My bet is there's a field goal attempt coming up soon.

[Drew Beringer]

I know this doesn't make as much sense in hindsight, but the Raiders were retarded for even going for it.
which makes the touchdown ever better/funnier.

[RyanFTW]

I know this doesn't make as much sense in hindsight, but the Raiders were retarded for even going for it.

I agree, it took some bronze plated nuts and a couple of knocks off Tom Cable's IQ score but I'm sure they're not regretting it now.

[Drew Beringer]

I haven't been watching all night, what is up with LT?

[Talib Scottie]

Rivers will take the underneath all day long. Not sure what the hell Oakland is thinking.

[J.C.]

The Raiders were offsides. Where was the flag?

[Drew Beringer]

what awful defense

[Drew Beringer]

Is LT hurt? Or does he just suck?

[MyWorldEntire]

If Rivers throw a TD to anyone but Jackson, I'm going to lose by one point:-(

[TEAMRAMROD]

I haven't been watching all night, what is up with LT?
Haven't seen him much the second half. Sproles has been getting the majority of the touches.

[Drew Beringer]

Haven't seen him much the second half. Sproles has been getting the majority of the touches.
Interesting.

[The Raine]

These ESPN commentators are awful. Kinda like our team.

[Talib Scottie]

Dunno what's up with LT, he's played fine, aside from an early fumble.

[The Raine]

BOOM. Roasted.

[Drew Beringer]

haha Raiders prove once again they are awful.

[Talib Scottie]

Easiest two minute drill ever.

[J.C.]

Nice contribution to the deciding drive of the game, Tomlinson.

[TEAMRAMROD]

Interesting.
I think they like the option of being able to dump it off and him outrunning everybody.

[MyWorldEntire]

Damn, my comeback fell 7 points short...

[SwiftSilentDead]

Poor Oakland.

[The Raine]

What a sloppy victory. But once again, I'll take it.

[TEAMRAMROD]

What was the hang time on that?

[TMS2787]

Russel yet again proves how 'young' he is. Disappointing.

[S9Dallasoz]

This is why I prefer the Niners...post game wine & cheese.

[rcrook]

Hideous win tonight but I'll take it. Still don't understand why that TD was called back. What a terrible cast of characters in the booth tonight. And Philip Rivers is still a dickhead.
