I was thinking the same thing...sounds the like the O has been struggling this week in camp, but hoping the D should put on a good show against the Eagles.

As this is a pre-season game, I could care less if the game is ugly or quite frankly if we win. What will piss me off is if I don't see the coaches working different players in different situations. These games should be about developing the best squad to put on the field, honing talents, and preparing for the games that do count. If we go 0-5 in pre-season, I could care less, as long as we are developing our team to be ready for the games that count...

Doug Gabriel took most of the work in Porter's stead.

Great post Wookie!

Could be ugly? I guess they forgot what the last 3 seasons have looked like.

Anything, will be a refreshing change.

I too am hoping this coaching staff will get the most out of the players and bring the talent level where it should be for Raider football.

Fortunately, Art has a lot of young players who can be molded. With the exception of course of Jerry Porter.

You can't win fighting with your employer and acting like a malcontent. He is not that good.

Can be and should be good. However, you do it on the field and he disappears more than my wife does when there is a sale at the mall.

Here's to a spirited effort from these guys.

HMMM...interesting read. IMHO, dont care too much about a win/these are 'exhibition' type games. Jus lookn forward to seein some of what we got, jus seein' the team line up like it's REAL football Sunday, ya know.

Good read....thanks 40. I like how some of the guys go to sleep hearing jackie and irv's voices.

At least score 7 points in the first half of each preseason game...unlike last year.
