Ready for the Raider Nation?????

[Pats and Sox]

Did you even watch the games? Oh and yeah we suck ass at penalties. But don't u know that already?

Little known fact: the Raiders have never legitimately lost a football game.

Those penalties were all because the league hates Al Davis and wants to screw the Raiders, and...

Hey, same thing happens to the taterskins. The refs hate them.

Congrats.  Your team used to be good back in the day.

The Eagles won championships before the Raiders even existed, if you really want to get into history.

However, let's talk about now, and both teams' recent history.  The Raiders traded away rights to Jon Gruden in 2002, who then took his team into Philadelphia and clobbered us, then to the Super Bowl, where they absolutely embarassed an excellent Raiders team.  The year before, both the Raiders and Eagles were done in in close games in the playoffs by the teams that ended up meeting in the Super Bowl.  Since?

2003 - Raiders go from good to terrible.  Eagles lose NFC Championship game to upstart Panthers after McNabb is injured in the 2nd quarter.
2004 - Raiders still suck.  Eagles go to Super Bowl and actually give the champs a run for their money... a much better effort than the Raiders put up in their recent Super Bowl appearance.

During the off-season, the Raiders made a ton of big moves, trading for Randy Moss, trading away Philip Buchanon, signing Lamont Jordan to a huge deal, and re-signing Jerry Porter.  However, a defense with an anemic pass-rush and little talent was given no help whatsoever outside of the draft and the signing of Derrick Burgess from our Eagles.  Burgess has not cracked the starting lineup and is looking like yet another flush of money from Al Davis.

The Raiders are 0-2, having lost to two very good teams.  The Eagles are 1-1, having lost to a good team and beaten a crappy one.

The Raiders have a big play offense, but a mistake-prone QB.  The Eagles have a big play offense and the first QB in the history of the NFL to throw for 30+ TD's and less than 10 INT's in a season.

The Raiders have a defense which fails to pressure the quarterback and has very little talent in the secondary.  The Eagles have a defense which will pressure the quarterback and cover the big play at the expense of possibly being on the soft side against the run (but not really).  The Eagles, by the way, have 3 Pro Bowl defensive backs, and two other CB's that are better than anyone the Raiders can field beyond Charles Woodson.

The Raiders are going to lose this game.

But if the better-by-comparison relatively ancient history of your team versus ours is something that really matters to you, you can enjoy hanging your hat on that.  Talk to your fellow Bay Area fans who all came here last week bragging about their 5 Super Bowl wins...  and left without a trace after their team was outright embarassed.
