Oakland 2011-2012

[good2know]

What you guys feel about Oakland this starter?

[CaptainPrice]

meh

[AlphaOmega]

There will not be a season so who cares ...

[Frostware]

if there is a season...probably 8-8; 7-9;9-7... one of those.

[headhunter34]

they seem to be improving but they had a weak draft so it really depends what they do in free agency to see if theyll actually have a shot at making the playoffs next year

[BlastByou]

there gonna lose namdi so there defense is going to get a lot worse

[Raleigh77]

I think they're 9-7...they did sweep the AFC West last year.

[iwantcougars]

with namdi 2nd place on afc west no playoffs, without him 3rd spot afc west

[RaiderNation MMA]

we need namdi!

[slacker00]

I agree with the others, probably around 8-8 give or take a couple games either way depending on how things go.

[McBa1n]

I don't see how they've improved. You gotta figure McFadden is going to get hurt in there. Their QB situation is very 'blah'. At least bottom 10-15 in the league right now. I'd have to look at their schedule, but I think 7 wins is their high end. With 6 wins being more realistic.

[CaptainPrice]

2-14

[hooiser]

good

they will do better then last year

[iifold]

Campbell

[AlphaOmega]

Oakland will do no better than 8-8

[4TH AND STUPID]

good young team that has a good running back, two good wide receivers, and a solid defense.

had a very good draft where they picked up some key defensive players >>> a couple of good shutdown corners and a couple defensive lineman.also managed to add a little offensive line

i think there is plenty to be excited about for this team and they are essentially a QB signing away from being a legitimate 10 win playoff contender.

dont sleep on the raiders , people are underestimating them but as soon as they get a QB they will be dangerous!

[McBa1n]

I suppose anything can happen in the AFC West. Denver should still be down. KC about maxed out. SD is a wildcard with a lot of holes and some free agents likely to leave. I wouldn't say the division is wide open, but the Raiders need to sign Miller at LEAST and maybe pick up a couple of solid players in free agency to compete.
The whole thing with free agency eligability and open market free agency makes everything really up in the air. Oakland could be losing 2 of it's top 5 players to FA out of the gate. Hard to improve a team when that happens.

[iwantcougars]

i could be crazy, but vince young could do well with the raiders

[Wade Dwayne]

they will be lucky to 8-8. More likely 6-10

[the-phenomenal-1]

they

they should be a 500 team this year or 9 and 7

[seasonoff]

nfl

they wont stop nfl are u crazy..who believes that they would close most popular sport in the game...yea okkkkkkkkkkkk

[uhuhahah]

OAK will make play off...

[dogkatcher]

Absolutely desperate for a QB, Al Davis is Brain dead
and looks show it. 8-8 year would be great, and
in that division it's possible.
