I am getting rip because I believe in my team.

I know their not playing well after 3 games, but I have faith and hope they will turn it around. The season is still early.

There's no way they'll go 0-16 IMO. Some team will come in to the game unmotivated and expecting a big win and make a few mistakes, fall behind by a few TDs, and then not be able to come back.

I'm guessing they'll win 2 games.

I'm a true fan, probably one that's more true than you. Did you not hear the boos last Sunday? I guess those guys aren't true fans either.

would it be worse for the raiders to win 4-6 games and pick in the 5-12 range or go 1-15 and get the #1 pick?

Of course its frustrating to see them play like that.

But I bet I am not the only fan that tought the Raiders will be starting out better.

I am not going to turn my back on the Raiders.

Whats funny is that people make predictions all the time and are wrong sometimes too.

Lets see how they end up after 16 games, thats all I ask.

If JB is talking like this now can you imagine what he will say if they actually win a game?

You aren't getting rip(ped) because you believe in your team. You are getting rip(ped) because anyone who has watched more than 10 minutes of that offense play understands that it isn't going to get better anytime soon.

What do you think would happen to me if I hopped on here and said "The Browns are going to the playoffs. HUGE win this week. This team has some serious talent"?

Let me clue you in: The first thing that would happen is that 25 Browns fans would jump down my throat and tell me I was an idiot. (if there are indeed 25 Browns fans left) Then the fans of other teams would come in to watch the show and laugh their asses off. Bengals fans would probably be first in line throwing jabs.

Now jb, keep something in mind here, the Browns are the team that just beat the Raiders in Oakland. And I can promise you anyone predicting playoffs or some miracle turnaround for them would be mocked. And you think Oakland is going to be spared? Please.

Don't bring up the Elmo prediction. Anyhow, I can agree that I thought they would start out a little bit better but that has been dashed with Andrew Walter starting. He's essentially a rookie QB and you can't believe that if he starts the whole season (which he should) that we'll even make the playoffs. At best, I think we can hope for a season that the 49ers are enjoying next year...well, at least up until yesterday.

Who cares, there's a 100% chance they will fuck up the pick.

Anyone have a youtube of that one play vs the Browns where nobody blocked the Browns player after the snap, and he just walked in a sacked the QB.

Some of you guys probably go with the hotest team, once your team is not doing well. Thats not being a true fan to your team.

I've been a Dolphins fan for the last 25 something seasons. And my team has Choked. Every. Fucking. Year. Yet I still love them and root for them, partly because I am a masochist.

And I'm a Dolphins fan BECAUSE of the Raiders (for leaving). So that's why I hate them and root against them even if they faced a team full of nun-killers and baby-eaters.

You're getting ripped for a number of reasons:

1. You used a great preseason as a predictor for a great regular season, when it appears that they will actually have a miserable regular season. People are piling on in their subtle way to reinforce the message that 'Preseason records mean nothing.'

2. You used the Raiders, a team hated by many and an easy target.

3. You are jbmagic.

Nothing better than being winless and not caring about it.


Raiders | Moss continues to be critical of team
Tue, 3 Oct 2006 07:24:21 -0700

Steve Corkran, of the Contra Costa Times, reports Oakland Raiders WR Randy Moss continues to vent his frustration towards the organization. Moss said during a radio interview Monday, Oct. 2, he is not concerned with the team's struggles this season, as the organization, in Moss' opinion, does not appear committed to winning. "I'm not concerned about football right now," Moss said during the interview. "I'm loving life. I don't see anybody else having a concern, so why should I? There are negative things going on now. I'm not the only one unhappy."

So tell me JB, just how many games will Oakland have to lose before you admit that they flat out suck and have no shot at anything other than the top pick in the draft?

You also maintain they will turn it around and make the playoffs. Not playing well and playing like Oakland is is 2 different things.

Hey at least I had the balls to make a predictions during preseason.

Some of you guys going to wait until there 2 weeks left in the NFL to make your team predictions?

It much easier to make a predicition after 4 weeks on the NFL has been play.

If, by some miracle, Hell freezes over, pigs fly, and the Raiders DO make the playoffs, this thread should be permanently stickied. Screw that, it should be bronzed.

That, of course, after Quik unveils that jbmagic is actually just a bug-ridden little bulletin board sub-routine that he wrote when he was drunk on peppermint schnaps.

It must not be too much easier because after 4 weeks you are still wrong. Not many people predicted the Raiders to be good, and those that did now see that they were wrong and Oakland is a terrible team. You seem to be the only one left with blinders on.

Who is who?? I cant think of a single Sports persona on any network that picked the Raiders to do well, however I also havent heard a single guy who has said anything positive about the Raiders after these first 4 weeks,and that includes both of your malcontent WRs. You should have to prove to us that besides your delusional ass that anyone still thinks they will even win a game, let alone go to the playoffs.

I didn't see you make any predicitions. So shut the fuk up.

We will see after 16 games are played not after 3 games played.

The point is your prediction is wrong and you are too stupid/stubborn to admit it. I know that your remedial mind cant grasp this concept, but take all of our words for it, its true.

We wont have to wait 16 games to see, the Raiders should be mathmatically eliminated from the playoffs any minute now.

You must have nothing going on in your life to be all work up for a predicition I made about the Raiders in Preseason.

Who cares if I am right or wrong?

Your telling me people that make predictions are never wrong? Even guys on Fox and Cbs has been wrong many times about a team.
