More fucking excuses. This shit is disgusting.
The bottom 10 vs. Jets
By Jerry McDonald - NFL Writer
Sunday, October 25th, 2009 at 8:24 pm in Oakland Raiders.
Ten notable developments of Sunday’s 38-0 loss to the Jets at the Coliseum:
1) Tom Cable didn’t sugarcoat it. While the entire team is responsible for a loss of this magnitude, there was no trying to sell the notion that the problems of JaMarcus Russell had to do with everything but JaMarcus Russell.
Game-opening fumble? Russell should have checked it down. Interception thrown under pressure to Jim Leonhard? No good explanation. Interception in the end zone on first-and-10 intended for Todd Watkins?
“Just threw it up there,” Cable said. He said Russell was “out of sorts” and noted, “I just did not feel like at that point he gave us the best chance to have the success we needed to have offensively and made the move.”
2) Russell calmly disagreed with Cable’s assessment.
On the fumble, Russell said he was supposed to check down and didn’t have. The interception to Leonhard was because a defender had “crossed his face” and the one by Revis came when he was trying to allow Watkins to “make a play.”
Never mind that it was first-and-10 and he threw it up for grabs.
Russell acted like he knows the job is his until Cable is told otherwise.
In 79 possessions with the Russell at quarterback, the Raiders have 14 turnovers and have scored 14 times with nine field goals and five touchdowns.
