Found November 10, 2011 on Raider Take:
Well, here we are, poised to take the divisional lead after two wretched defeats and falling to .500. That tells you a lot about how strongly we started...and about how mediocre the AFC West is this year. Every other division in the NFL has a team with at least six wins right now. The AFC North has three teams with six wins. We're fortunate to be in this position with just four wins.At stake, however, is not only the divisional lead, but also our viability as a winning team. If we fall to 4-5 tonight, we'll have to win five out of our last seven games in order to post our first winning record in eight seasons, and that's with the Bears, Lions and Packers on the docket.In other words, this is yet another can't-lose game. Talk is cheap, and excuses are weak. It's "prove it" time. GO RAIDERS!
