HOF Game Ponderisms




Raiders 16 Eagles 7
Check out the game here


The Good, the Bad, the Ugly
The Good..
-Congrats to Madden...Once a Raider always Raider..It was great to see him put Collinsworth in his place asking him "what has Rivers done in the NFL??" after Collinsworthless proclaimed SD the team to beat.
-It was great to see a Raider Victory..
-Brayton was revved up and making plays at his natural position. I like how he doesn't stop pursuing till the whistle blows.
-Washington had a nice pick that he almost ran back. FAST VERY FAST
-The D created 5 turnovers!!!!They were going for strips on every play.
-Raiders commited 4 penalties for 25 yards.
-Special Teams played well particularly the coverage units
-Sea Bass nailed 3 of 3 including two 50+ FG's
-Irons was looking like a force getting in on every play and knocking a guy down with one Iron
-Moss didn't get a pass his way but had a great block...It's nice to see him block cause the mediots like to say he doesn't play every down
-Brooks TD was a well placed ball high and were only his Anderson would get it.
-Walter connected with Fargas on a improvised shovel pass for a big gain.
-No major injuries

The Bad..
-Mcnabb and their first unit marched down the field with ease on the first possesion for a TD
-The Offensive and Defensive lines were outmuscled and dominated especially the O
-Running game was anemic
-Quarterbacking was poor



The Ugly..
-Gallery got manhandled, gave up a sac and commited a false start at LT in limited action
-Unnecessary roughing the passer penalty on a third down incomplete pass gave them a first down
-Even though it's good decision, it sucks that the Porter situation has escalated to were the coach felt it would be better to leave without him. JP is turning into TO without the talent or numbers to back him up
