Oakland Raiders @ Denver Broncos; Through The Years

19 Nov 2008 12:00:05 PST

Written by Zappa
Though the Broncos would lose to the Raiders later in the season, it was no longer an easy road for Oakland to run rough shot over Denver. It was from then on to be a hard fought, bloody battle to the end. That is exactly how the 1977 AFC Championship game would play out. The Raiders were coming o...

Raiders' offense remains horrid

10 Nov 2008 00:00:00 PST

Written by jejones@sacbee.com (Jason Jones)
Three of the Raiders' four interceptions put the Oakland offense in Carolina territory. But all the Raiders managed were two field goals by Sebastian Janikowski and an interception. The Raiders made sure Delhomme was never in rhythm. It'll take more than effort for these Raiders to win.

Indeed, the silver lining in the Raiders' five-year-old black cloud has experienced each and every one of those losses. And yet, Nnamdi Asomugha is no Badluck Schleprock, sporting an eye patch and whistling "The Autumn Wind" as he backpedals past the graveyard. Not even if the Raiders cap...

DeAngelo Hall is no longer an Oakland Raider, and upon hearing this news, Vegas made the Raiders 19 point favorites. No, I'm just kidding ... the Raiders are going to get pounded.

Opinion: Analyzing the Chiefs - From the Dark Side

13 Mar 2008 18:03:57 PDT

I don’t see any moves to fire up the fan base. I don’t even see any moves that as a Raider fan make me think the Chiefs will be a threat. Oakland got the AFC west monkey off our back last year, and the Chief monkey off their back with a win in Arrowhead. Maybe Al Davis overpaid, but he has aggressively f...
