The Oakland Raiders are at .500 for the first time since...a long time. I'm more excited about our teamt han I have been since the Super Bowl. If we can contain Tomlinson in two weeks just like everyone else has, then we are going to have loads if momentum. We actually have alot of momentum now, beating the Dolphins 35-17. We gained 299 rushing yards...only 29 attempts. Thats a 10.3 yard average. Which might be an NFL record. Culpepper threw 2 TDs on only 5 completeions out of 12.
It might be just me, but I think this is going to bo a long year for the Raiders opponents.
Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that our opassing defense is back on track, allowing only 158 yards, with two INTs. Our run defense, not as good, but it did as much as you can expcet against a great RB like Ronnie Brown.
Unfortuantly, LaMont Jordan went down with an injury, but Fargas stepped in valiantly, as he will be this weeks leading rusher, easily. Also, the loss of Jordan won't be as bad as some may think, because in our next game, Dominic Rhodes comes back from suspension.

The Oaklnad Raiders are Bringin' Back Da Nasty.
