    i hope we trade our pick for multiple picks, cause we need help.

    we need a corner, safety, some O linemen, a running back, perhaps a time machine.

    Sweet Jesus!!!! This game set football back 50 years.

    No chest thumping from me for this pathetic win. A win of this caliber should be treated as a loss.

    Aaron Brooks embodies the black quaterback stereotype .

    Heh....so which quarterback is worse?

    Rex Grossman 6-19, 34 yards, 3 INT, 1.3 passer rating today (the Bears won). And his team could make it to the superbowl.

    I have a feeling that with already average offensive line depleted with injuries, the rest of the games this season might go pretty much like this one offensively.

    Santa, all I want for Christmas is to beat the Titans next week. Please.

    I'd take that... except you wouldn't need the time machine.

    Just hire Doc Brown, and he'll BUILD us one.

    It was below average after the first game of the season (when Spencer went out with an injury).

    Also, most average teams, or at least 5 year expansion teams, acquire the sort of depth that will prevent days like this from happening when injuries occur... thank CC for that.

    The Texans and the Browns are exactly what the NFL wanted them to be... after Jacksonville and Carolina beat the system. They're lost franchises with no identity, no direction, and both had to resort to hiring multiple different head coaches.

    I guess if you can have a moral victory when you lose, this would be a moral loss, even though we won.

    I'm just happy we won.

    We've doubled the amount of wins we had last season.

    I don't remember the differences so someone needs to remind me. How was the expansion draft/system different for Jacksonville/Carolina?

    Carr is 1-0 this week. More wins than the Mannings combined.


    Just kidding, he was horrible. So was the OL. The only thing that saved us was the Raiders being worse.

    I do then I realize he can look at his bank account balance and that should make him feel better.

    That was a horrible game today, at least they won to stop the free fall from hell. Next week will be interesting.

    Since when is being sacked considered passing yards anyway????

    I thought that was considered rushing yeards!!!

    Carr threw for 32 yards and was sacked for -37 yards....the outcome is -5 yards passing. So why did Carr record 32 yards passing and not -5????

    Explain please!!!!

    That's just the way the NFL accounts for it. I think the NCAA does it the way you're figuring it, or at least they used to.

    The way the Titans have played in the last two games, I wouldn't be suprised if he is successful.

    "The Oilers had negative-4 yards passing in a 17-10 victory over the Bengals. ... Houston's previous low for passing yards in a game was 6 on Oct. 23, 2005, against Indianapolis. ... The fewest the Raiders had allowed was 7 against Denver on Sept. 10, 1967."

    No respect!

    If Getting sacked was added to your rushing totals, Dan Marino would have like -3000 Career rushing yards.

    Carr's personal yardage is 32 yards passing.

    the sack yardage is against Team Passing Yardage.

    So the Texans as a team passed for -5 yards.


    Just goes to show you how truly awful the raiders offense is when the defense does that and still loses by 9.



    Here we come Brady!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
