Remember when the Oakland Raiders THREW AWAY Quarterback Jason Campbell like yesterday's trash, for former Cincinnati Bengals QB Carson Palmer, when he broke his collarbone back in October against the Cleveland Browns?Well it's being reported that the Raiders "may" keep Campbell as an option at quarterback.According to the San Francisco Chronicle, with current Quarterback Carson Palmer struggling, two games in a row for the Raiders, Head Coach Hue Jackson isn't hiding the fact that the team may hold on to Campbell for next season or even "try" to re-start him before the season is over.With Campbell starting the first six games for Oakland, taking them to a 4-2 record, which at the time had them in first place in the AFC West, many inside the Raiders front office is re-thinking trading or having Campbell as a backup next season.Campbell has been recovering, and at ANY TIME could be called on to suit up and play football, but HIGHLY UNLIKELY he'll s...

Raiders get WR Moore back to practice

The Oakland Raiders got one of their injured big-play threats back at practice as receiver Denarius Moore took the field with his teammates for the first time since injuring his right foot.

Oakland Raiders File Lawsuit Against Nation's Giant Hamburgers Chain Because of 'Ambush Advertising' (Photo)

Don't plan on ordering a McFadden anytime soon. At least not while the Oakland Raiders are so quick to go after burger joints. The Raiders have filed a lawsuit in federal court against the Nation's Giant Hamburgers chain for violating the team's "Raider Nation" trademark in an ad slogan, according to the San Jose Mercury News. The slogan used by Nation's...

Palmer’s mistakes piling up for Raiders

The Raiders offense is different with Carson Palmer, but it hasn’t been appreciably better yet. The team is 3-3 with Palmer under center. It was 4-2 with Jason Campbell.  Palmer has struggled with interceptions and a roster that is a lot more banged up than it was when Campbell was playing. Still, it’s hard to…

Raiders Insist RB Darren McFadden Does Not Need Foot Surgery

Raiders coach Hue Jackson said you can call running back Darren McFadden’s right foot injury a midfoot sprain, a Lisfranc injury or whatever else you want, but he is certain that McFadden “does not need surgery.” Jackson also said that he still doesn’t have any idea when McFadden will be cleared to return to action.

Raiders Need to Patch Holes in Defense

The Raiders aren’t dead yet. They still have a pulse and a chance to win the AFC West or fight their way into a wild-card spot in the AFC playoffs. They may have to do it without running back Darren McFadden and a couple of limping, deep-threat wideouts in Jacoby Ford and Denarius Moore, who missed the past two games. “Every game from here on in for us is a must-win,...

Darren McFadden has a Lisfranc injury, return still uncertain

CBS’ Phil Simms broke a bit of news during Sunday’s telecast when he revealed Raiders running back Darren McFadden’s “mid-foot sprain” was a Lisfranc injury. That helps explain why McFadden hasn’t been seen since mid-October. The Raiders haven’t said much about his injury all along, and Hue Jackson didn’t see what the big deal was.…

Patriots In The Rear-View Mirror
