Who was that member that said Tom Cable was a good coach???

Alpine White Girl

I did. Tom Cable has no choice but to let Fat boy play qb. If he benches fat boy he makes al davis look dumb, al davis looks dumb then Cable gets fired. Cable has 1/16 the talent the chargers have and still pushed them. Cable has been there for how many games and has no say in his draft picks. Anyone who knows anything about the raiders knows that Al Davis is the one drafting players. Cable cant help it if Al Davis drafts rtard wr's and cb's every year.

Any raider fan who was expecting to have a winning season is dumb. Rebuilding a team is a process, but the process cant begin until Al Davis dies. He continues to waste draft picks and trade away talent for nothing. (ie. Randy Moss for a 4th round pick to the pats. To put that move into perspective the jets recently gave up 2 players, a 3rd round pick, and a 5th round pick for Braylon "stone hands" Edwards. Yet the raiders let randy go for a 4th round pick. nice call al)

He had that team fired up and playing hard against the shitty Chargers who have all the talent in the world but no coaching either. The raiders should of won the game but hey shit happens. Just like the chiefs should of beat the cowboys in kansas city this weekend.

When are you going to bring valid points into a football discussion?

I guess it was tough for all bay area football fans yesterday. Your 2 teams lost by a combined score of 89-17.

Now that you've poured some salt onto our wounds, would you mind giving us some good hard kicks in the stomach while we're down? Much appreciated.

No point in debating Raider football - we're all just 'arm-chair quarterbacks' anyway.

Just one question though, when does the 'rebuilding process' start/end - Raider fans have been saying that since 2003, it's ridiculous.

Just be friggin competitive, that's all us fans want.

Raiders suck - end of debate.

Huh what?

Seriously, im not get into it with you anymore because you bring too many statistics/facts onto the table it's no fun... I mean, you bring casual sports talk to a whole new level to the point it where gets kinda "erksome" (no pun intended) like I feel like you're trying too hard to prove your point... I agree I think the Chargers suck right now and I also think the raiders suck too. Debate over. YOU WIN!

Its not about winning or losing because like someone else said we sit at home and are the smartest people in the world. Everything we talk about is opinion. I just back my opinions up rather than posting something with nothing to back it.
