I felt the same way after our game today!

I suppose we dodged the biggest bullet...

Ha, yes. You were closest to losing at least. Half a yard difference and you'd be 2-1. Patriots and Packers didn't get quite that close.

I feel like I probably would have died if I watched the game live. The literal first thing I did when I woke up was check the score.

Vernon Davis with the jukes

If you survived the super bowl you can survive anything.

Looking at the score takes all the fun out of it. I've had 1 game I think that I couldn't watch when it was on due to an appointment very early and I took great effort in assuring I would not be spoiled until I could watch the game.

I have the luxury of watching games the next day or whenever though, so that helps.

Carr not having his best 1st half.

He needs to get it together and start throwing it to Crabtree.

It seems Vernon Davis demise was greatly exagerated...

[draynay]

He was definitely dead, he just makes a good zombie.

He was even double tapped, but still kickin'

Definitely a fast zombie then and not a slow one.

Raiders defense looks worse than the Saints in week 1-2.

Yep. Doctson just stole Amerson's lunchmoney (and the ball) and the Raiders have just not looked like they were able to stop Washington on that drive.


Just in general in this game, I'm not sure if the Raiders are just this off or if Washington is just that hot. Truth is probably somewhere in the middle.

Judging by that last series, I think we are underestimating just how loud it is in that stadium and how difficult it is to communicate. Cause the Raiders are making some really uncharactaristic mistakes on offense.

[Grube]

Redskins defense is doing a really good job, the Raider o-line wasn't even giving up pressures let alone sacks in the other games.

This game is just a continuation of the other games this week, mostly bizarre things you didn't see coming. Kickers even had a really good week with how many 50+ yard FGs there were.

Vernon Davis just forgot how to catch for a couple years was his problem. Somehow he remembered when he got to Washington.

[xskarma]

Darren Sproles to IR with a broken arm. Tough luck for the little guy.

[Northern Goblin]

Finally some life (after a huge slice of luck) from the Raiders. That first half is some of the worst football I've seen from the team in a while, a lot of players clearly without their head in the game.

He had no heart, no competitiveness at all, maybe Singletary gave him a talking to in the offseason. He would catch the ball and then hit the dirt, he never fought for extra yards or attempted anything after the catch.

Didn't watch enough 9ers to know that, I was just going off what he did in Denver. He was blocking extremely well, and was getting open and stuff just had bricks for hands.

[Northern Goblin]

3rd and 19 might as well be 3rd and 69, Raiders just cannot get off the field.

The 2 Kam hits pretty much made him see ghosts... or double vision I guess.
