Last year, the Raiders, going into the last month of the season were not in a good way. They lost to Kansas City at home, due to a botched play during the game. Then, in the first two games of December, were beat up by San Diego and New England, by a combined score of 83-33.

At that point, Oakland was 3-11, with some people thinking Cable would be gone after not making it a full season as a fill-in.Then the Raiders put their feet down, and decided this was far enough... there was no place left to fall back.It was time to rally at home against the Houston Texans.Oakland proceeded to unleash their offense, scoring 27 points in their first win over the Texans ever. Oakland's gameplan was simple but effective, with the team having only two penalties, JaMarcus Russell throwing over 200 yards passing and two touchdowns, and Justin Fargas putting up 93 yards. The Raiders would then go across the country to Tampa Bay, who were looking for a win to get into the playoffs.The Raiders decided to make that game for Tampa a perfect nightmare, as the Raiders rallied from ten down to win by seven. Tampa Bay since then has won only a single game and replaced Jon Gruden.Looking to this season, it has been its own learning curve.JaMarcus Russell started out as the quarterback of the future, in his crucial third year.

His numbers were staggering, not for the size, but for the lack of impression for Raider Nation. Russell had just over 1,000 yards in nine games and delivered a 2-7 record, with two touchdowns and nine interceptions.Bruce Gradkowski entered the picture, looking at a team with options, but not a lot of fire. and what can he still do for the Raiders this seasonThree games in, he already has matched Russell's win total without needing nine games.The next four games could be telling for our offseason and the 2010 season.The Washington Redskins, at 3-9, just came off a heartbreaker. They had the New Orleans Saints down by seven, with the chance to ice the game with a short field goal After a miss, the Saints tied the game, and won in overtime.
