They will sink into that deep black hole by week 4. The fat lady has already warmed up and ready to wail.

Not too great or THAT bad from what I've heard.
Art Shell can motivate his players well and you'll see how that works on LT Robert Gallery. He'll finally get a mean streak and mature as an LT. LaMont Jordan will continue to be a top RB in the NFL and all Aaron Brooks has to do is throw to the most athletic WR in Randy Moss.
The defense will be horrible. Burgess is a major threat but the loss of Washington hurts the LBers who will have even more pressure now. Morrison is good as is Clark but the outside is really weak as of now. They have a young, athletic secondary which usually screams out "DANGER" to most teams. Unexperienced corners hurt.

My non-immature answer is below-average. QB has question marks, defense is young and unproven, and they lost Charles Woodson to the Packers, which is a huge loss for a team this young.
Other than that, look for 6-10 at best, but we know how things can happen in the NFL

Unless Aaron Brooks can put together a great year and get Randy Moss back to his Minnesota form it's not gonna be a good year in Oakland. Although their defense always seems to be okay. I would guess they'll win 5 or 6 games

They have Aaron Brooks now right? If he can get Moss the ball...and if Moss is healthy...and they can get a #2 spot that's solid...they're passing game should be alright. Jordan is a pretty good running back, they need to work the line and he can do much better. Overall...better than last year for sure...but in that division...I wouldn't expect much sorry :(

The Raiders will end up in the cellar of the AFC West, this year and many years to come. They'll probably stink until Al Davis dies.

Better than last year, I hope. They're my boys, but need to pick it up on defense (especially against the run) and need a QB who won't get them beat. Aaron Brooks.....you kidding me? He's got a decent arm, but makes stupid decisions (with the Saints, anyway).
If they're just decent in those 2 area, I see 9-7....

Didn't get very favorable reviews from some radio personalities I've heard on the east coast. Not sure what their quarterback situation is and I've heard they want to dump jerry porter but can't because of salary cap issues.

Not as bad as last year but not that much better. They'll have a better year with randy moss not being injured and if they can keep jerry porter and if Aaron Brooks succeeds and plays decent.
