What is there to address? The article is just stating that they're improving. They haven't really been tested yet but all sings "so far" are pointing to them improving. We'll see what's up tonight.

Well how's the Raider o-line looking so far? Wait a minute.. let me guess.... it's only week 3 right? LOL...


do you really need an answer....I think 76 passing yards in week 2 answers your question...how about 4 sacks as well

right...and o-line is a great reflection of how a QB can play. give the qb time and he wont get sacked and would throw for more than 73 yards
Uh... he had time.. he just overthrew receivers. Remember when Bly left Porter wide open (for the 2nd time) for that TD only to have the ball overthrown???? Don't forget about that buck fifty Lamont Jordan ran for.

How about the 2 15 yards penalties that Sims was calling for in the last drive of the 4th?

There better but nothing to brag about..........
2 15 yard penaties? Huh... I remember him jumping offsides because of the crowd noise. I don't remember 2 15 yard penalties though

I think they were false starts. Denver's crowd got loud on that final drive and I don't think he could hear the snap count. Excuses aside we were in position to win that game but didn't come through. After two weeks the o-line has been playing very good.

It's either Denver's defense is garbage or the Raider o-line really improved or else Lamont Jordan wouldnt' have run for over 150 yards. So which is it scary? Denver's boo-boo defense or the o-line is that good? Where was that big aquisition Sam Adams? Where were those great linebackers of yours? Lynch couldn't come to the line of scrimmage and blitz because he had to help out Dre Bly.

I think it was Gallery that was called for the false starts. I remember the announcer saying he never should get called for that because the QB is right in his right ear.

I thnik denvers d-line wasnt that great but the raiders O-Line was alot better then last years..........

You're right. It was Gallery. Other linemen got called for a few penalties as well.

gallery always gets called for something.....that foo looks more like a bust every year
Our offensive line is WAY better then last year, Our QB can actually get a decent play off(well not mccown but thats not cuz of the o line) and we can actually run the ball but man gallery keeps gettin penalities left and right its pissin me off

denver's run d has been very sub-par...even in preseason...but if you watched football you would know this.


about those linebackers..again if you watched football you would know we lost out heart and soul of D i al wilon, moved a player over to his spot that hasn't played NFL there on top of all that learning a new scheme

dispite all that we still won the game!



Denvers d still needs some work with eachother and the scheme but they will be fine as the season moves along...but yes as of right now the run d sucks...I can admit it!


It a shame that fans of other teams still cant admit whats wrong with thiers.
