Lions vs Oakland Raiders, Return Of Jon Gruden To NFL Ends With Win

Lions vs Oakland Raiders, Return Of Jon Gruden To NFL Ends With Win - Video

Jon Gruden’s Oakland Raiders best the Detroit Lions 16 to 10, and gave the coach called Chucky his first win in returning to NFL Football as Head Coach of the Silver and Black. The highlights were many: 1) A multiple offense that moved the quarterback pocket. 2) A bruising running game that relied on blocking description. Marshawn Lynch ran around end for 70 yards and a touchdown that was called back for a questionable holding call on the rookie Kolton Miller. Chris Warren emerged as a star with over 80 yards rushing and 8 yards per carry. 3) A defensive line that crushes pass pockets and featured several young stars in the making, most notably P.J Hall. The lowlights were few: Nine penalties leading fans to observe that Gruden did bring back the old Raiders style in another way. But, in all, Jon Gruden brought the fun back to Oakland Raiders Football! And that was just the first game of preseason. One issue I can see is the huddle. Hopefully Gruden has a no huddle package to speed up the offense. But overall the Raiders don’t get off the ball on offense as fast as the Baltimore Ravens of this year. They are the leaders in that area of playing fast, along with.the Cleveland Browns. Stay tuned.

Oakland Mayor's Race: LWV Forum Draws Oakland's Older Folks

Oakland Mayor's Race Forum first take. (Which means, there's going to be more of these posts on last night, because a lot was happening.) This just in: The Oakland Tribune's out of touch with Oakland. A number of attendees of the 450 estimated said they learned of the Oakland League Of Women Voters via "the newspaper." All of the people who made that statement were over 50 years old. Still, the forum, which attracted every candidate except Dr. Terrance Candell, was a success. The auditorium at 300 Lakeside Drive seats 380 people, so if you do the math, it was about 70 over capacity. The crowd was a happy mix of supporters of candidates and long-time observers of the Oakland political scene. The one complaint they had was there wasn't enough time to hear what the candidates were about. That wasn't because there were too many candidates, but due to the format. Either Oakland Tribune Editor Martin Reynolds or the League of Women Voter
