**Oakland Raiders 2010 offseason Thread**
- Thread starter Joey
- Start date
Not really, the cowgirls offensive line blows, and like it or not, Justin Smith is easily a top DE. Offenses have to take him into account because hes always working the person hes against.

Jason Campbell struggles in Raiders debut
Posted by Gregg Rosenthal on August 13, 2010 11:46 AM ET
Four drives, four first downs, and 68 total yards of offense was not the opening performance Jason Campbell wanted with the Raiders.
Thankfully, it's only the preseason. Campbell struggled in his debut whether he was facing the Cowboys first-team defense or the backups. Darrius Heyward-Bey dropped an easy pass, and Campbell was a little too fine when he targeted an open Louis Murphy deep down the field twice.
The first preseason game is not big deal, but Campbell averaged just over four yards-per-attempt on his 12 throws. The scheme of the Raiders offense is not that different, though, than in the past.
"Not too much of it has changed," running back Michael Bush told the Oakland Tribune. "The only thing I can think of is maybe coach might run the ball more or something like that. But as far as plays, not much has changed."
The Raider can only hope the production changes during the regular season, but we do have some stats should make Raider Nation feel better: Jamarcus Russell completed two-thirds of his passes last preseason, while averaging 7.3 yards-per-attempt for a 96 QB rating.
Yeah, the preseason doesn't tell you much.

Yes. Justin Smith, The Pro Bowler. Which Shows he is a top 5 DE in the NFC
Justin Smith was named second alternate to the 2010 Pro Bowl, but was later called up after Kevin Williams of Minnesota dropped out because of injury. He had six sacks, recorded 90 tackles (according to the coaches' review of game film), had a team-best 78 pressures and 52 hits on the quarterback.
Defensively we look solid. The front four played at a high level. McClain is a beast in the middle. Llamar Houston? He might be the steal of the draft. Our young guys are coming along just fine. 66 yards on 22 carries. But it is one pree season game.
Campbell needs time with this offense. One preseason game really does not tell too much. He will be fine. I liked the shots down the field. That is just minor adjustment stuff, but the recievers had a chance to make a play. I am sure having McFadden on the field would have helped too. DHB had one ball thrown his way. The DB played it well. No big deal. Even the best drop passes.
