  1. Denver also has the bonus on defense of a pass rusher by the name of Demarcus Ware, unless I missed him being out with injury.

      1. I see where you said Bo was on the sidelines. He probably still can compete on one leg better than some of these current Raider players.

  2. Rams beat the raiders 52-0 last week – no pressure though. Rams just kicked the crap out of someone else today. Are we the worst team in the West?
