The Oakland Raiders‘ quarterback conundrum isn’t quite solved, but, roughly 48 hours from game time, a solution is beginning to take shape.

The Oakland Tribune is reporting that, barring a setback, quarterback Jason Campbell will get the start against the Broncos.  Campbell is officially listed as questionable on the Raiders’ injury report.

“I thought Jason was pretty close today, so if it stays that way, I think it would be him — again, with no setbacks,” Raiders coach Tom Cable said Friday.

Bruce Gradkowski is “very” questionable, according to Cable, meaning Kyle Boller will likely get the nod if Campbell can’t go.

Campbell was a capable quarterback for the Redskins, and shouldn’t be taken lightly because of his struggles of late.  We all remember what happened the last time the Broncos took a visiting Raiders quarterback lightly.

    i still think ryan harris should be the starting right tackle shift beadles to left guard c'mon mcd sure zane played well there but man no on our o line would be over 30 and most of them undercontract for quite some time would be a great way to just get a gel going on this season! get that o line going well running game will pick up then our o will be set and the rest of our draft issues would be getting a the 3-4 line young! i think ayers so far has played like a beast against the run and pretty good against the pass as our #1 rusher.
