Little programming note for all the fans like me who couldn’t watch the game with their own two eyes – the NFL Network will air last night’s nailbiter on NFL Replay tomorrow (Tuesday) at 10:30 PM ET. I watched the highlights and had a few fears confirmed (ahem Chris Myers)… but I can’t wait to […]

Seriously. Any one reading this with a heart condition feeling as though their life is in danger? Last week we had the late field goal, and then this time we watched the Broncos lose, then not lose, and then win. I think this game is taking years off of my life. Good thing I don’t […]

@ It’s storming here in northern AZ, and my power might go out again.  I’ll have full game thoughts in the hours ahead, but signing off for now!  What a heart-wrenching game! 4:45 – THE POWER WENT OUT AT MY HOUSE!!! OH MY GOODNESS!!! BUT IT JUST CAME BACK AND THE BRONCOS WIN!!!!! 4:33 – […]

@ 4:24 – McCown’s first throw in this quarter is incomplete.  Can you believe this?  Raiders take a timeout after some sloppy line formation.  Oakland is at their 41-yard line and hoping to get somewhere where Sebastian Janikowski can kick it.  He’s more than decent, with a career long of 55 yards.  3rd and 7, […]

After an interception (and lightning storm)-filled first half, the Broncos lead the Raiders 17-3. The Broncos started their semi-annual bout with the Oakland Raiders with a blast, executing a 29-yard scoring drive after a Champ Bailey interception on the Raiders’ second posession. Shortly after the start of the second quarter, a 30-minute storm delay was […]

@ 2:47 – FG is good, 17-3 Broncos. 18 seconds left in the half. 2:45 – 3rd and 7, and the Broncos fail to convert (barely) after a Selvin Young run. Jason Elam, don’t blow it buddy. 2:42 – Two minute warning after a 21-yard Travis Henry run. The Broncos are threatening at the Oakland […]

@ Raider Week is coming to an end! While Daunte Culpepper is looking to get the start (Josh McCown listed as doubtful), the Broncos are finished preparing for their home opener and are ready to take the field at 2:15 PM Mountain Time. For those who can watch the game live, don’t miss the tribute […]

Need a full scouting report on the enemy? Look no further than here. Position by position, I break down the competition’s roster and tell you which team has the edge. QUARTERBACK – JOSH MCCOWN (#12, 6-4, 215) There are conflicting reports out there, but my gut tells me we’ll be facing Josh McCown on Sunday […]

In a big game of “What If?” – Oakland Raiders beat writer Steve Corkran wonders aloud how different the Raiders would be if they had selected Jay Cutler with the 7th overall pick last year. Instead, the team picked safety Michael Huff, who has a lot of upside but hasn’t lived up to his potential […]

Getting ready for each week’s game, I’ll be inviting a fellow writer from across the blogosphere to a little Q&A to tell us about his or her team. This week I invited Sean at Raider Take to answer a few questions, and he’ll be sending some my way in the near future. Just like he […]
