[killgod]

[Houston]

Drug Test him now.

[Goober]

Did they bench russell?

Btw, since Seymour is talking out of his ass, what's his thoughts on getting owned by Ryan Clady?

[LC AAU]

hahaha.

[Sean]

Why must every thread become broncos related

have you forgot Raiders and Broncos are in the same division, also Broncos 6-0, Raiders gonna suddenly find success and beat the Broncos... in Denver too?

[St. Francisco]

if the D kept playing like it did VS San Diego and Philly its a possibility.

I love you Raiders fans...you guys are so cute with your Al Davis-like insane optimism.

[Nature Boy]

He must think this because of the newest signing by the Raiders.

[Deviant]

The league's worst offense going to the playoffs.

Yeah, ok. As long as JaMarcus Russell is your QB, the Raiders will never go to the playoffs. I wish I could smoke the shit Seymour's on. You ain't in New England, son.

[Kuzzy Powers]

Same guy who had to think hard about even wanting to report to the Raiders?

Yeahhhhhhhh! One big win can do a lot for a teams confidence.

[Tailback U]

That's fucking awesome. I love it.

He had no gripes about going to Oakland, kuzzy, just that it was the week before the season started and he had to leave his wife and two young daughters and move to a new city right before the season started.

He talked about how he grew up liking the Raiders and even said, "I will be playing Monday night [vs. San Diego], I'll be the guy sacking the Quarterback," and then he ended up with 2 sacks and a monster game.

This guy has been great for the team since we got him.

I don't care how dumb or wild you guys think this prediction is. This is what the Raiders need. They have nobody in the locker room that has experienced winning except for Ellis, Seymour, and Asomugha. These are the guys that need to step up and make sure everyone knows that losing is not ok and that quitting is never ok.

And the Raiders don't have to win the division to make the playoffs.

They simply don't have the offence to pull it off.
Their receivers are barely NFL quality.
Their quarterback is the league's worst starter by a big distance.
They simply caught Philly on a bad day and surprised them by playing more than two defensive schemes. They won't catch their next opponent off-guard like this.

All that said, I think what Seymour is doing is smart. He's trying to bring a little championship swagger to the team. Nothing wrong with that.

Omar, you're a reasonable man...you can't honestly think that the Raiders have a chance at making the playoffs, can you? Denver, New England, Indianapolis, Baltimore, Cincinnati, Pittsburgh, New York, San Diego...that's eight teams that are without a doubt better than the Raiders. There's only six playoff spots.

You guys would need at least ten wins to even be in consideration in the ultra-competitive AFC....so you'd need to win 8 of your last 10 games. Looking over the schedule, I can see three wins (Kansas City, Washington, Cleveland). That's a 5-11 record. Hell, let's say just for kicks that you surprise two other teams. That's 7-9.

There is no way in hell the Oakland Raiders will make the playoffs. End of discussion.
