An old Joey Porter, Ronald Curry, Tim Dwight, and Johnnie Lee Higgins. Running Backs? Lamont Jordan and Justin Fargas. That was a bad Raiders teams that sent of Randy Moss the year he got there. The fact he never got an opportunity to be a backup anywhere else was odd to me as well. All I'm saying is the Raiders organization is tragic.

It’s rare when Oakland HASN’T been tragic. That’s why I don’t necessarily hold DA or Carr’s performance with the Raiders against them.
