Raiders vs Rams on Friday night 08/24/2007
The Raiders better come to play on Friday night. I don’t care if these games mean anything or not, I think it is important for the Raiders to develop a taste for winning now so the players can compare the feeling they have after a victory to that which overcomes them after a loss. After 14 of them in the regular season last year, it’s a taste the team needs to get out of their mouths for good!
The JaMarcus Russell thing not withstanding, I’m very confident about this offense, and the leadership of Lane Kiffin on the sideline and Daunte Culpepper on the field. Dare I say 8-8? OK, the Raiders may not perform as well as I would like this season but there’s nowhere to go but up from last year’s debacle.
I agree with the commentators who say that the pre-season is way too long, I’m ready to start the games yesterday. Good luck on Friday!
