And now for some actual football talk.
The Raiders really need to consider Tuiasosopo as their quaterback. They seem to be behind collins but with porter, Moss, and Jordan they need a solid quaterback. Can't really comment on the Raider defense, they weren't going against a good offense to really be able to tell what they can and can't stop.
The Niners defense is really not bad at all. The problem, as most of us know, is the offense. These rookies are beginning to mature now atleast. With some good coaching it won't be hard to beat last season's 2-14 record. Alex Smith could be the future of the Niners but if he doesn't produce the coaching team would be stupid to make him the present. As much as Nolan would like to have Smith on the Frontlines now, it's hard to overlook that Rattay has good composure and looks to be pretty damn accurate.
Niners 1-15, that's just wishful thinking. It's a whole new team behind the scenes, I doubt anyone could accurately call what the Niners can and can't do. The Niners do not have any superstars but neither do the Pat's and their coaching team has been taking them all the way for a good time now.
Me, I was anxious to see this (pre)season start and see how these people did back out on the field. Fuck who won and who didn't, I just wanted to see some Football.
