Do you guys think the Raiders have a chance of winning the division? it seems like we are there with the division? the Chargers are a powerful team now...

Professor

No chance, imo Still too young and green at leadership positions

well in my opinion the only shot we have at the division title is a mature J-Rock and a ferrocious defense oh and probably LT breking his leg. the chargers have to much talent for them not to win even though they did a good job not winning in the beginning of last season. So to answer your i dont think we will win the division but we will better. 9-7 sound good.

the Chiefs are down, the Broncos well forgot how to play D and well Norv is the coach of the Chargers. if the NFL it can happen but even if LT breaks his leg like DP says, the Chargers still have to much on both side of the ball right now to just completely crumble. the Raiders already had a solid D and with the drafting of McFadden it gives the Raiders a nice QB and RB for the future. my guess would be no better than 3rd. record wise this team can go anywhere from 6-10 to 8-8

Chargers 10-6
Broncos 8-8
Raiders 7-9
Chiefs 6-10

Yes, I think 9-7 is a solid prediction... better than last season, but true, no real chances of winning the division...

Ok, 6-10 or a 5-11 season for the raiders
Its true bronc dont know what defences is but they still hold an advantage over raiders.
Larry johnson is tough, and with the chiefs he will be hard to stop
Chargers... well dont get me started.
mcfadden will help but russell might be considered good but
55.9 qb rating
he might be a early draft pick for raiders, this doesnt mean he is ready to go, russell needs more guidence, he makes poor decision way to often and his accuracy is not fantastic. Throw accuracy is the base of any good Qb, Russell strong arm is worth nothing without accuracy. Raiders need to sit down and teach this kid some knowledge, then take away that arm and just focus on hitting his reciever.
Do this and u raiders will get there 9-7 season

Last year the offensive line blocked well and Fargus ran for over 1000 yards. Darren McFadden will surpass his numbers as long as he stays healthy.

The wild card for the Oakland Raiders is JaMarcus Russell. If he does not develop, they might win 4 games, however if he plays well and makes some great strides, they have enough talent on the team to win 9 games

If oakland tightens up that run defense then yes we have a shot i think the chargers window is closing but we gotta stop that first.

I wish the Raiders could be the team everybody used to praised
