Why do the Raiders suck so bad...

Man, you think when you have Randy Moss you are always in the game. (Well, I guess they are right now as the score is like 27-21 but they are getting pushed around like nobodies business) I mean Kerry Collins, please throw the ball to Randy! He has like 3 catches, 2 of them for TD's!!

But I guess the bigger question, is how did we lose to them :oops:

Just Norv doing the best he can to screw us over.

Tiki just hurt his ankle...
Strahan had his eye gouged out more or less by a Raider.

I hate to see anyone get hurt but I hope the giants lose this game.

And another LB went down.

They need to run just one draw.

I can't believe how badly they are botching this. They might score here, but they used a ton of time.

Why do they try running the ball at 1st and goal, when the running game was trash the entire game. Norv still fails us after he left as head coach.

Seriosly, they wasted all three timeouts trying to run it in after only rushing the ball 13 times in the entire game. Any smart coach would throw four jump balls at Moss at the very least. Then you also save your timeouts. The reason the Raiders are so bad is because Norv is a terrible coach.

It doesn't matter anyway, the Giants are going out in the first round.

How can you not have Moss on the field at a crucial time like that?

Well...had WE beat them (at home), we wouldn't even be talking about this!!

You're exactly right. We're two wins short of sitting where they are right now.

Last night must have been a total embarrasment for Norvy. Four missed tries on the Giant's 1-yard line. Pathetic.

Why couldn't they have played so bad a few weeks ago? :cry:

A lot of you pose different questions... all of them have the same two word answer....

Norv Turner.

As I said before, do you not all remember how mind-numbingly frustratig it was to see Norv try to do it 'his way' no matter how little it was working?

Run the ball when you should pass, pass when you should run... very little of it actually WORKING.

Not only is this guy not an offensive genius as tagged, he hasn't really ever run a successful offense WITHOUT the trifecta of Aikman, Irvin and Emmitt in Dallas.

I think people give the guy waaaaay too much credit for his offensive mind and in a game that changes constantly, I just see a guy that is still trying to do the same old things that don't work.

I have a Raiders buddy that I saw over Christmas whom I hadn't seen since the start of the season... his eight words sum it all up...

'Now I know what you were talking about.'

My 2 cents
