All I can see in my mind is Daunte Culpepper in the endzone waving that ball at the miami fans last year. Yeah I know he's gone but it is still clear in my mind. Just like yesterday when we didnt blow out the Seahawks some may have been surprised by that but as long as we continue to get scoreboard in the end thats all that matters. (no duh huh) but the good thing is some of the wins this year were losses in the past and that's a good thing. We are still a draft or two away from being dominant every week but if you told me last year we would be where we are today I would have said you were crazy. So here is hoping for a Romp against the raiders but in the end as Granny Davis likes to say, "Just Win Baby!"
 
Keep in mind who we had coaching the team last year too....not exactly Einstein. Seattle may have been a wreck, but they're pretty well coached.

Oakland is in shambles. They don't know what they're doing. We win big.
 
I agree all the way. I love blow outs but I just wanna WIN!!! The playoffs are actually in reach now. Just gotta beat the teams we're SUPPOSED to beat (e.g. Raiders, 49ers, Rams, Chiefs) and split some games with the rivals then we're in! I'm loving this season.

Seattle played a pretty good game defensively against us. This is the only game that they manage to pressure Pennington into making multiple bad throws. This Raiders team is quite possibly the worst team in the league aside from St. Louis.
 
Is there an ex-Dolphin who's gonna try to kill us? If not, we should be fine.

Mare almost got us yesterday and well, the Daunte fiasco last year was devastation.
 
Didn`t Joey Porter say something last year about a Win vs. Oakland....then they ran all over us???
Just a WIN is all I want....
 
it would be pretty impressive to lose to oakland because the panthers basically did everything possible in the book to lose a game with a qb having a rating of 12.3 7/27 and 4 ints and they still won by double digits in there place. so if we lose i think im gonna be speechless for awhile.

I think the Raiders are the worst. How they managed to win 2 games this season is beyond reason...
 
I'm pretty sure Ginn is going to have an awful game receiving next week. Asomugha is incredible. He held Steve Smith to 1 catch for 9 yards on Sunday.
 
Ill just take a win, by 1 or by 30, 6-4 is what matters heading against NE.
 
I could care less about a blow-out but I what I really want to see is us play a complete 4 quarter game. I want to see our o-line execute picking up blitzes and opening holes. I want to see our defensive backs ball hawking and not giving up easy passes in zone coverage.

I want to see PROGRESSION and not REGRESSION in different areas of our gameplay. These are the teams we are supposed be be building our identity against. The last 2 weeks, we have shown that we are learning how to win but really in those games we were a few miscues by their team from going 0-2. We didn't beat them as much as they beat themselves. I want to BEAT the raiders, not learn to "not lose" against them.

You know, its a little ahead of the game yet but I am getting more and more concerned about the Chiefs game up ahead. As a KC guy (I live 5 minutes from the stadium) and being forced to watch the "Cheese" each week in hopes of a glimpse of a highlight or two of my Fins, I have seen a lot of the Chiefs.

Yeah, they suck but man they have been pouring their hearts out in the last 3 games. Each one they were dominating the opposing teams in the first half and then seem to either lose all steam and give up or, in the case of this last Sunday, give the game away on a lousy two-point conversion call.

I don't wanna look to far ahead as we are talking more than a month away but yeesh, thats going to be a difficult game...mark my words!
