I was, of course, hoping JaMarcus Russell ha what it took to be an NFL QB...nope. He still can't hit a guy 0 yards down field. I think he should try moving to tight end and the Raiders move on with another QB. It would be a bit of a shame to not use him somewhere, being athletic at 6'6" 280lbs.

Not very good NFL QB...he did complete 1 long pass last night for a TD (to take the lead just to see it slip away in the last 15 seconds).

I also wish the Raiders would trade McFadden to a team that would utilize him properly. They don't give him enough carries....and since he is not in the game all the time, when he is in, the other team knows he is getting the ball (thus they stack the box and come after him....they also do this because they know that Russell is not much of a threat to throw deep).

I started fantasy football back up this year and was hoping that he would be a sleeper. He's in the free agents, but I was waiting to see how he did in Week 1 to judge whether or not I want to use a roster spot on him. Right now, probably not, but Louis Murphy would be a good addition!

I hate when teams do that...put a bullseye on the guy!

They ought to bring him into throw the ball! He can throw the long ball better and they'd be thinking run! Win, Win!!!
