Just when you thought the Raiders couldn't have any more drama until the end of the season, James Cregg called head coach Tom Cable and told him where he could stick the offensive line coach position for the Raiders. The call happened late last night after the Raiders were beaten to a pulp by the New England Patriots...Just when you thought the Raiders couldn't have any more drama until the end of... more

Coming off of a thrilling overtime victory last Sunday, the Raiders are a team hungry to continue the momentum they may have begun. It will take much more than a 57 yard field goal to win their next game against the Baltimore Ravens, it will take execution and...Coming off of a thrilling overtime victory last Sunday, the Raiders are a team hungry... more

After a tumultuous off-season, preseason, and first quarter of the regular season, the Raiders will begin to show how well they’ve weathered the storm this Sunday. Ironically, they’ll be doing this in a place known best for the costliest and most destructive natural disaster in the history of the United States....After a tumultuous off-season, preseason, and first quarter of the regular season, the... more

Despite having to sit through another telecast with Tony Kornheiser displaying his lack of knowledge, creativity, and clues especially, there was an interesting show on display between the Minnesota Vikings and the New Orleans Saints. As you know, the Saints are next up on the Raiders hit-list and every media outlet is sure to tell you that they have absolutely no chance in New Orleans. From what was on display Monday Night, you could make a great case for exactly that. I’m not sold....Despite having to sit through another telecast with Tony Kornheiser displaying his... more

After the first game of the season, where the Raiders bombed out on Monday Night Football against the Broncos, it was pretty certain in many people’s minds that the Raiders weren’t going to worry about winning this season for a coach on the chopping block. We said as much here and many of the media pundits and former players said so as well. Since that time, we’ve seen inspired performances by a team that many consider an afterthought in the race for the playoffs, and since this team should be sitting near the top of the AFC West with a 2-1 record, the questions have come again and Kiffin had the answers....After the first game of the season, where the Raiders bombed out on Monday Night... more

By now, you’ve probably grown tired of all of the rumors and drama that has surrounded the Raiders recently. Tired enough to begin worrying about the game, and the Raiders chances of having an actual winning streak longer than one game. OUCH! Yeah, that tid-bit of truth ‘truly’ does hurt. It’s really simple, if the Raiders play better than the Bills they should win...By now, you’ve probably grown tired of all of the rumors and drama that has... more

Prior to seeing the added moves, I already had gone back and forth in my head about what type of message I wanted to post in this space regarding the Ashlie Lelie move. Let’s just say that it wasn’t the most complimentary message that I’ve ever thought up about the Raiders. If you follow the Raiders or are a fan of the Raiders, one thing is certain…nothing is ever what it seems to be. That’s definitely true of the latest moves as well...Prior to seeing the added moves, I already had gone back and forth in my head about... more

So you wanna’ know who’s going to make the team? Here at TFDS, we’d like to know too. We’d like to know so much that we decided to predict who’s in and leave the guys out that don’t belong. We realize that many things can happen between now and the final cuts occur such as injuries to our favorite players,....So you wanna’ know who’s going to make the team? Here at TFDS, we’d... more

Yesterday prior to the game, many of us were saying that there were no bragging rights over a preseason game. I agreed, expecting the game to be close in every way. I didn’t expect to see what I did, a complete domination over a 49er team that is definitely in transition on offense, and still not cohesive on defense. I’m not saying go out and run smack over the win, but there’s no reason not to feel confident that the team is rolling along in the right direction...Yesterday prior to the game, many of us were saying that there were no bragging rights... more

I keep hearing from both 49er and Raiders fans that the game means nothing. Nothing? Like pretty much everything in life, I guess it’s all in the perspective that you look at it from. If you’re looking at it from a ‘bragging rights’ point of view, then it only means something if your team wins the game....I keep hearing from both 49er and Raiders fans that the game means nothing.
