These were the same idiots and their sources that were saying that Cable would be fired by a specific date.

More Raider speculation. If you didnt hear it from the horses mouth or Jerry McDonald it is made up trash. No true source just BS.

The league plans to make an announcement during Oakland’s bye week that during their latest win they tackled KC’s running backs harder and more often than they were supposed to, thereby nullifying the victory. Oakland is going to be 4-5 and on their way to a 7 game losing streak. kravon, you are a genius.

Who would have thought Al Davis would be the voice of reason. I guess the old man still has some of his marbles. You idiot raider fans that have been crying for Gradkowski to start need to shut up! He sucks!

I didn’t know Campbell played defense and helped STUFF the run, Didn’t know he switched his jersey to #20 and and became a beast of a RB. Jeez…Campbell played 2 games with HUGE leads and a Defense that has come alive, He ALMOST lost the game VS KC with his awful 1st half..4 of 10 with 18 yards passing. Jacoby Ford made 3 CIRCUS catches to come down with Campbells passes, I’ll give him the deep ball in OT, that was a good, NOT GREAT, a good throw. The throw to set up the tieing FG was picked off until Ford RIPPED it out of the guys hands. Campbell played a completely awful game VS the 49ers. He IS a good dude, no doubt about it, he has all the tools to be great, but he is just so inconsistent. His hand is far from HOT….the other 21 starters are the ones with the hot hands. With all that said, I say start him vs the Steelers, give him a QRT and if he is 3 or 8 with 15 yds, YANK him, and put Gradkowski in.

And the idiots on this site want to be taken seriously?
No, and I mean no, credible journalist would ever report a “person familiar with the situation” as being anything other than a rumor and not deserving of posting. Unless you get a quote directly, and I mean directly from God (AKA Al Davis) shut your holes and make up stories about someone else.
By the way, did any of you retards ever wonder why G0d (AKA Al Davis) doesn’t grant interviews anymore? It’s exactly because of this kind of crap, National Enquirer “journalism”.

Lets be a little bit realistic. Both quarterbacks are not world-beaters by any stretch. Certainly, serviceable with different strengths and weaknesses. Campbell is a more accomplished athlete whereas Grads brings intangible leadership qualities to the position. So, sticking with the hot-hand is a completely sensible way to go.
When I watched the replay of the game, I didn’t think Campbell played as bad as I did when I watched it in person. If Ford makes that catch in the first half, they probably put more points on the board and would have added another 40+ yards at least to his passing total.
Clearly, not a great game for Campbell. That interception was a horrible decision and Ford bailed him out in the 4th. However, I don’t think it was as catastrophic as some in the Nation would have you believe. In the end, a win is a win, and Campbell played a big part in bringing them back to victory.

It’s fairly obvious that you can’t start Gradkowski with a gimpy shoulder against the Steelers pass rush. Still, he might have to come in and hand off a few times if slo-mo JaCampbell gets clobbered.
If we can slow down the pass rush with a steady dose of McFadden and Bush (don’t we all need a steady dose of Bush?) and some play-action, then Campbell might have some success down the field.

who is signing the checks, that is all thats matter!
besides Al does not give a rats ass about any of that, all he cares about is winning, and Campbell has accomplished that the past few weeks.

First of all, no one knows crap.
Second “a person familiar with the situation” is hardly some kind of iron clad source on anything.
Some litero-quack like you was just spouting off yesterday about how Davis wants BGrad’s back in? which is it? I’d love to be like you guys and just assign whatever to whomever whenever I want.
Take your stats and cram them. If you were analyzing football for a living you’d know the Raiders recent wins are the result of special team, defense and a running game. The limited amount of successful passes Campbell has completed down the field have been set up by a running game or he had his bacon saved by great catches.

‘Skins fan here says…Go, Raiders and I hope JC does well. The league is better when the Raiders are in contention….of course, we Washington fans are still waiting. A game where we whomp someone (and WIN) would be nice…don’t see it anytime soon, though.
Hail!

There u go again Mr. Davis. You just couldn’t help yourself sticking your hands where it doesn’t belong. You need to let your coaches coach and leave them alone. So far they’re making a good sound decisions so why intervene.

Raiders fan here, I don’t think you can bench Campbell after he won 3 in around. Did he benefit from the team? Of course.
Leave him in until he starts to struggle. If you need a boost in Pittsburgh at halftime, throw Bruce Almighty in there.

Campbell has been off target with virtually every deep throw he has made (the last throw in overtime excepted). He has been lucky not to be picked off about 10 more times thanks to guys making plays. It also takes JC an entire half of football to even warm up. He only gets with the program for about the last 1/2 of the game. We can’t afford this vs. $hitsburg.
At least Bruce has better pocket awareness and better accuracy. Who led us to the Superbowl last time? A rocket arm or an accurate QB named Gannon?

Al Lets cable have full control dont be fooled by the media, they have NO CLUE what goes on with the raiders. They make up stories like ESPNs AdaM sCHEFTER,
Lets go dowm memory lane about all the lies adam has said.
1 Cable will be fired
2 Cable gona be fired next sunday
3 Cable will be fired after season
4. Cable has been fired
5 Seymour will not show up in oakland
6 seymour frinds say he will not sign
7 Raiders will select bruce campbell 1st round
8 Raiders trading Asomough
9 Raiders have TRADED Huff
Well theres about 100 more just look them all up.
Bottom line is PFT ESPN none of these hacks know anything about the raiders.
Now they are all panicing cause Raiders are the best team in the NFL. Florio is REALLY panicing cause he knows HIS steelers gota play raiders in 2 weeks.
Florio knows that He will never hear the end of it if raiders beat his steelers AGAIN this year in their OWN backyard

Come on PFT just give up!
I know you guys are trying to do anything at this point to try to put the raiders down or try to start a rift or something to slow down this machine..
Listen heres the real deal.
Cable is in charge of this team.
I hope you people dont fall for this old media crap.
Adam schefter still thinks raiders fired cable 2 years ago.
The media loves when the raiders do bad. The reason why is the raiders are not a corprate robot like all the other teams and the media can never find any dirt on the raiders. Raiders are run like a family they dont have “leaks” so the media trys to bash them

Al also wants the leisure suit to come back in style outside of the casino, Tom Cable to stop beating the crap out of wemon &Heward-Bay to learn to catch the football. None of these things will happen old man. Now shut up, eat your mush and tell your nurse when its time to change the bag on your leg.

Jason has finallyh connected on 1 deep pass and missed 3 wide open ones. 2 of which costed us a game against the Niners. Typical old fool that he is. Just let Cable do his thing Al. JC has benefited from his teammates and not the other way around.

as a redskins fan I just want the raiders fans to know that Jason does this EVERY yr…he plays decent mid season just long enough for you to be around .500 and start thinking bout making a playoff run, but once the playoff hunt becomes serious he totally disappears. Let him play the Pitt game, but regardless of how he performs he cannot start after that…he will only let you down…trust me
