Tebow vs. Raiders

[IEDodgerFan]

This is no surprise...the only surprise is that the Broncos didn't start #15 earlier. Hopefully now with Orton hurt and most likely on his way out of Mile High, the Tebow Era can begin.

Downside: Tebow and Broncos will be trying to get a win after their embarrassing 59-14 loss in Week 7. The way that both teams are playing, I don't see Oakland falling at home where they are 4-2, and 4-0 against the Division.

It's too bad that Tebow will be taking control of a struggling team on both sides of the ball, but it's better then where Orton will be on Sunday.

Tebow. By the way that kid played college ball, it almost seems like he could snap the ball to him self, backwards lateral to himself, and hit himself 40 yards downfield on a flea flicker to make a touchdown.

sweep is a little soon. The raiders suck, the broncos suck. Either team could win.

People will be talking of the one genius move by Josh McDaniels
for years and years to come

Let Tebow Reign

You are wrong, the broncos can't win....Raiders roll here and sweep the donkeys, believe it.

Raiders are my #2 pick of the week, the 'Boys are #1.

[wunwun]

Were my 2 strong plays also. 2 teams going nowhere status quo.
Now, 2 X factors (QB's) making me second guess. See a rally like Ariz.?
Still betting 'em but smaller.

Yeah, remember Miami? They tried a Gradkowski experiment but also gave up 33 points ...

I'm on them this week but only because I think Denver has given up.

Aside from the Raiders run offense and run defense and the Broncos passing offense everything here looks pretty ugly. Campbell has come on recently.In last week’s tough loss at Jacksonville 38-31,Campbell went 21-for-30 for 324 yards and two touchdowns with no interceptions.Tight end Zach Miller continues to be a calming influence for whoever is the Raiders triggerman.Miller needs just 51 receiving yards to become the second tight end in history with three consecutive seasons of 600 or more receiving yards (Todd Christensen being the other).Sensational rookie wide out Jacoby Ford has caught a touchdown pass in two of the last three games for the silver and black.With a more multi-faceted offensive attack and a good pass defense,the Raiders should be able to add to the Broncos misery with another loss.With all the turmoil in Denver it's hard to say what kind of run defense will show up.I'm betting it's the bad one.I like Raiders in the black hole on this one
Raiders -6 1/2

The Raiders take this game.

[kidkonggolf]

Messy field conditions with rain all week in Bay area. Low scoring game. BOL

After loss in his debut, it is good to see that Denver is starting fresh with a young and potentially "great" QB, if he can stay healthy and play great football. Two TD's and rushing for 78 yards is not too shabby. Hopefully he keeps it up. Denver can play some exciting football, when good.

On a side note: Matt Flynn also starting in replacement for Rodgers was also impressive. As a Packer fan, I was nervous as hell, he'd get dominated. Glad to see he played strong to the end, even with the loss.
