    And it is time.

    Hunter and Wright should be on the field almost every play. I know the Raiders aren't the best pass defense team in the league, but it isn't a coincidence that the first game we use Hunter as a real offensive weapon instead of a toss up gimmick WR is also the first game our passing game thrived, as opposed to its usual comatose state.

    Now if we can do something about wasting half of our plays on the 120 lb power back version of Chris Johnson, we might be getting somewhere.

    Those 2 with Washington in the slot or out wide depending on the set. They all are good catchers and all have the ability to make plays after the catch. With Walker and Stevens/Thompson in the slot we could have a pretty good passing game.

    We definitely have a lot of improving to do but we have some bright spots.

    It's the line not CJ. Do you suggest we just hand it off to greene everytime who had a terrible drop and ran just as poor as CJ?

    It's time to spread the offense out and set up the run with the pass.

    When we load up with 2 TE's on the line, the run will never fool anyone, and play action from there has only been slightly effective.

    Spread everyone out, make them defend it, and see if CJ can run from that.

    But blasting him in there for 2 yards each time is dumb.

    The line hasn't been as bad as you would have one believe.

    CJ is running like a 230 lb back and it is stupid.

    I blame play calling more than CJ. I saw us pull a guard maybe 3 times. Counters and zone runs should consist of 90% of our run game.

    It has been Wright, Washington, Williams, Hunter, Britt for a while. They rarely use 4 receiver sets so Hunter didn't see a lot of action. Williams got hurt, then Hunter got hurt and was inactive last week, so that is why this is the first week he saw real action...

    The question is if he has passed DWill. I hope so...

    Hey ppl got mad at him for gettin tackled in the backfield a lot. Now he is not getting tackled back there anymore. This is what you guys get when you try to change someones style. He's so concerned with getting at least positive yards he isnt making the big plays. He's a workhorse now. You guys choose what you want.

    I will say this... Hunter is tougher than i though he'd be. I thought he'd be a fragile, skinny seldom spectacular receiver. But, he played with ball the size of cantaloupes today and even showed a little bit of fire when he mixed it up with the Raiders DB.

    Making a believer out of me.....
