I feel pretty good about this matchup. Hall has obviously always run his mouth without being entirely able to back it up, though he isn’t terrible obviously. I think the thing I like about it is that our receivers have improved substantially from week 1 after having more time with Ryan from where in the first few weeks there were a lot of drops, but recently there have been much fewer (aside from the major Finneran one obviously), and the QB/WR synergy has been building here so where in the early weeks it was a matter of protecting Ryan and not making him throw too much, now they can actually stretch the field. They are also 27th in run defense so I’m hoping this can be like Green Bay and Turner can get back on track opening up the pass for Matty.

I think this is a winnable game but I really hope that the whole DHall thing doesn’t take the focus away from what they have to do. Al Davis might be a joke, but there is some talent on the Raiders and they aren’t really the slouches everyone makes them out to be.

I think that Turner gets back on track this week and runs solid. 120 yards or so and a TD while Matty Ice sneaks in a big play but still hovers around the 200 yard mark. We need a solid performance here.

****, **** that mother ******. I hate Deangelo Hall. I’m glad he’s gone.

Money shot: “I almost have to do what I’m told.”

Damn that must be real tough Deangelo. I don’t know how you carry on with such a heavy burden. Doing what you’re told? It’s almost like there was some paid entity, to, I don’t know, coach you during games. Does such a person exist? The world may never know.

I’m not denying that he’s got more talent than probably any of our corners, but his attitude is still the biggest stumbling block for him. I remember his coverage of Steve Smith well, especially when he blew the game for us by having a nervous breakdown out there.

We’d be smart to run it with Turner against a week front seven, but I trust Matty Snowballs to get it done through the air. He just shouldn’t plan on looking at Roddy White all game, as Hall and Asolongnameguy form a pretty potent tandem.

I know how u all feel. January 3rd, 08, a day i will never forget. The day i paid $100 for a D Hall Premier jersey, only a few months before he hauled @$$ outta there. But let’s think about it for a sec. Most likely they are not gonna stick Hall on White, because Nnamdi is waaaay better than Hall, the reason why quarterbacks hardly throw in his direction. Looks like the others are goin to have to step up.
