Anyone still want to be calling out Moore? Again – leading the team in tackles as the obvious target of the Raider offense. I never saw Moore miss a single tackle (not saying he didn’t – I just didn’t see it). Moore is stepping up and getting the experience he needs.

It is one of those situations where Moore is easy to set up as a mismatch. The raiders ran big receivers at him and faster receivers at him. Moore was ‘the man’ yesterday and should get as much credit as anyone for the win!

Truth is: I saw more to be concerned about in the win than I did in the previous two losses.

The battle is won in the trenches and dominating Raider defective trenches is a long shot from being able to beat the Pats. The Broncos are going to need to get some lucky bounces to stay in the game next week.

I said this last year and ‘ll say holds true this year. If we can pressure Brady, especially up the middle, we can beat the Patriots. Brady is a different player when he gets sacked , he starts hurrying throws and missing the target. If we can pressure Brady like we did C. Palmer, we will beat the Patriots. Jack Del Rio will have a few suprises in store , you can bet on that. Go Broncos!

Punt coverage was good though too. Lechler was just booming them to swing field position. At the same time we need to block better but Leonhard does need to make the first guy miss. That’s one of the keys to a good punt return is making the first guy miss. I sure do miss Royal though in the return game.

I kind of have to defend Jim Leonhard in the return game. I think it was the Falcons game where Gruden said about Leonhard “He is not going to get you any 40-50 yard returns, but he is also not going to put the football on the ground during a return”

We better be shining the bright light in Koppen’s face, to get all that Patriots intel out of him.. I’m sure he has a ton of Brady “tells” he could share with us…

Great game. If Prater had made the firstr down and DMT hadn’t fumbled Broncos would have scored EVERY SINGLE POSSESSION!!!!!!!

The seasson is 1/4 over. I’ll try to get some time this week and post BBBP that are already proven wrong or right.

I just love me a good Raiders stompin’! We finally got to be the ones to dominate. While there are always things to work on I thought we looked good. We were jacked up, fans were excited, we played with intensity, our defense played great, and our offense looked well oiled. Too bad about Walton though. I think all offensive lineman should wear knee and ankle braces. They’re always getting rolled up on and piled up on. Least we have a good veteran backup that played with Brady. So the experience should be there, just getting acquainted and gelled with the o-line.

The one big question was the fake field goal. I’m certainly glad it didn’t come back to bite us, but we don’t need our offensive lineman going downfield to catch a pass and then get cloberknockered. I’ll take the 3 pts. Besides..that play definitely needs some practice and the Raiders were totally ready for it.

Defense played great with May’s out and that was good to see. Not saying we don’t need Mays but the guys are really buying into the Next Man up mentality. Doom and Miller, finally glad to see them knocking the QB around! Think we took a play from the Atlanta defense, just kind of shifting, standing around and then BAM Palmer on the ground!

This week will be a great test. Our guys still have that nasty taste of last year I’m sure. We just need to go in there and play lights out..unlike the Bills. Just has to make you sick if you’re a Bills fan. We need to dominate Brady. I think it might turn into a ol’ fashioned AFC shootout. It’s tough going to Gillette and pulling a victory. That’s the difference in the game is home field advantage.
