With a chance to take control of the division, we lost. And not only did we lose, we lost to Denver. At home.

As with all our other loses, the penalties plagued us, the defense didn't show up and we turned the ball over at crucial times.

They ran that same damn running play over and over and over. And we fell for it over and over and over.

24 unanswered points. Unbelievable.

There isn't much else to say. There aren't any excuses to make. We lost and it sucks. Big time.

Short week and we go to San Diego. The way they are playing, I'd like to say we have a chance, but now I'm not so sure.

Hurry up and get healthy Jason.

The penalties were to the point of ridiculous, but I can't believe the coaching staff couldn't prepare the defense any better. How in the world do you gameplan thinking Tebow is NOT going to run?I'm sure Al just did a rotation in his grave.And what the hell is it with the hurry-up/pass first offense? Looks more like the Cincy Bungles than the Raiders.

I have to believe they overlooked Denver to prep for the Chargers. A lot of good that did.

And I'm sorry, but I don't like the TJ signing either. If Carson can't work with the WRs he has, then he wasn't worth it to begin with.

They didn't even have DHB on the field much, let alone throw to him - besides the one bomb Palmer tried to force to him even though he was covered like a blanket.

Yeah, I don't know what that was all about. Even the announcers were wondering why. Maybe he got in the doghouse for something (like voicing displeasure for cutting Hagan to make room for TJ)

This was a tough lost. But at least Oakland is still in the hunt.

Yes. Seems no one in the west wants to win. But since we play SD and KC plays Denver, there will be only one or two teams at the top by end of day Sunday. At this point we can flip a coin to figure out who it will be.
