Oakland Raiders QBs
It’s really hard to judge the Raiders QBs because they’ve been sacked an unbelievable 44 times this season already! Andrew Walter is getting his first NFL playing time this year and it’s not been pretty. Walter has completed 47.0% of his passes for 1,091 yards with 3 TDs and 9 INTs. Walter has a QB rating of 51.1, but it’s hard to blame him for that because he never has time to throw the ball. Walter has been sacked 37 times this season!
Aaron Brooks has been injured most of the season and it looks like he’s been lucky because of that. Brooks has completed 6 of 14 passes for 68 yards this season. He does have 5 carries for 27 yards, so he might have a decent chance of surviving when he returns from injury soon.
Marques Tuiasosopo hasn’t gotten much of a chance to prove what he can do this season. He has completed 6 of 13 passes for 68 yards with 1 TD and 2 INTs. Marques is a good runner, carrying the ball 4 times for 29 yards.
The one thing The Raiders need is a QB. A QB that move around in the pocket. We have a weak offensive line. You can’t just stand there and let the defense tee-off on you. Walter need to learn how to move and, run if nothing there. Did you notice how the Broncos came back…They found out that Walters the offensive line can’t handle the blitz. Now every team is going do this to us. Do I think Walters can better? Yes. All he has to do is move. Now, the last time I commented i gave Warren Sapp a slap…I’m man enough also to give props when it’s due. So, Warren, you did a great job Sunday and so did your defenseive team. I think our young safety’s show promise signs as well as your DB’s.

PS. Did Moss play?!
Thunder, I agree with you. What would it hurt to let Marques Tuiasosopo start a game or two until Aaron Brooks is ready to come back? At least he wouldn’t be a sitting duck in the pocket.
