You guys notice the offense had 3 and 4 reciever formations alot more spreading the field and obviously opening up more plays yesterday. If your at the game, (i sit in the endzone) you can see the difference. Cornerbacks having to account for Mcfadden out wide, opened up plays elsewhere. I have been wondering when they were gonna adjust to todays NFL. I liked the formations on offense this week. We really havent done this all year consistently. Ending the year in Tampa strong would be nice.

yeah I noticed that

obviously the passing game was way more productive yesterday

also, it seemed like they figured out how to use McFadden... throwin out to catch some screen passes... even goin out wide...

using him more like Reggie Bush... McFadden can be really effective... I think the Raiders just have to figure out the right way to use him... he's not gonna power his way through the D-line... he's only gonna be really effective rushing if out O-Line can make a big gap for him

mcfadden needs 15-20 touches a game.

whether recieving or rushing. Hopfully they come out in some similiar formations against tampa. spreading him wide created some plays all over the field.

are you saying the Texans ARE a garbage team????

because they're not... they were on a 4 game winning streak before playing the Raiders

that win against Tennessee alone doesn't justify them being a good team

but to say the Texans are GARBAGE is just plain stupid... they're not great... but it's a solid win for the Raiders for sure

any given sunday.it is a game of inches.

the texans did have the 3rd ranked offense coming in.there not the titans or the giants but a descent team regardless. shit, we will take any win being they are hard to come by, for any bay area team for that matter, minus the sharks.

im not saying the texans are a garbage team.....but a win vs tennessee doesnt justify them being some solid team...

their offense is young and talented....and they got a beast in mario williams and D Ryan but other then that thier d is very supsect specially thier pass d..

they are an above average team and a very good win for the raiders...but thats about it
