    First off Your telling me Vince Young has proven he can throw effectively with pressure in his face,

    Second you do know what Raiders have on defense. IF Titans can't run the football, they have no shot at beating the Raiders. N Asomugha- will take out whoever your number 1 WR. M Huff- might be a liability in running game(thats why you won't see him on the run downs) but he very good defending against the pass. Huff will take out any of your Tes man to man.

    Raiders with S routt(starting opposite Asomugha) and chris johnson(nickel CB) cam handle your Wr corp.

    Raiders pass rush is more ferocious than the Titans. They Keep thomas Howard(I expect him to play more this week) as a spy and Vince Young not outrunning him.

    Btw _ who cares what he did against the Cardinals defense thats not the Raider defense.

    Thats all and good but what happened to that stellar defense LAST year? 5-11 doesn't necessarily reflect a great defense....

    There is no doubt in my mind that Asomugha is the best cornerback in the league but he can only do so much against the likes of Chris Johnson and Vince Young.

    Again what defense are you talking about 2009 or 2010 version. Raiders made so many changes on defense, that you can't even make a correlation between the two. They upgraded the run defense, upgraded their pass rush ten times and they upgraded their secondary(have alot more cover cbs)

    Chris Johnson going to be a challenge- IM not looking at how many yards he finishes at. Its how he got those yards. IF he gets a large majority of his runs on one big run. That is not beating the Raiders. But if he keeps ripping off 4-5 yards everytime than those yards have alot more meaning. (keep Raiders offense off field why wearing down the defense)

    Vince Young- could be very dangerous against a team like the raiders that plays man to man with their Cbs. V Young running with Cbs back to line of scrimmage and he can run for a while. I expect Raiders to make Thomas Howard -V young Spy. He makes a break and thomas Howard will come up and stick him.(hes not outrunning Howard)

    Dosen't matter if your convinced or not. What happens on the football field next sunday will say all that needs to be said on subject. Raiders defense either performs like I think or They lay an egg and I have egg on my face.

    I agree with DBC I watch the Raiders they have a very Stout Defense specifically pass Vy will struggle against them. IF we win it will be a grind it out game with the running game.

    The same Thomas Howard who the Raiders were trying to trade? The same Thomas Howard who is now a backup because he sucks?
