My Biggest Concern.
My biggest concern of all is can Russell and the O-line handle the blitz. I believe Denver and any other team will do it early and often until Oakland can prove that they can handle it. Can Russell make the right read? Can the O-line pick it up so Russell won't get killed?

I hope that's all it takes to slow down Denver from blitzing. Because they can't bring any pressure without it. Then it's a big dose of the three headed monster of Fargas, McFadden, and Bush.
I can't wait to see what those 3 can do this year.

Amen. That looks to be our single most potent air weapon for the season until we get some WR/QB chemistry. Bush and McFadden getting the ball in open space should do a lot of damage. Here's hoping they actually make it happen.

You are probably right. I could be over thinking the whole thing anyway. First game jitters. Its just I live in CO and I can't stand the Broncos.

I'm sure the coaches won't. I just hope the young players don't get caught up in the moment of being on MNF and try to do something stupid.
I don't know what pisses me off more the Broncos or their fans. It's probably a good mix of them both.

I'm worried about our run D. I'm sure Russell will get sacked a few times and the Donks will blitz successfully, but if we can't stop the run it's going to be a long embarassing night on prime time.
