Yeah, it could be a long year but I’ve lived through worse. I’ve been a fan since 1989, what’s another bad year. Maybe Tebow will get some playing time and surprise everyone with a breakout rookie year…

There's always the chance I really like what the Raiders have done in the off season

 And if Al does what the media say’s he’s going to do and thats stay out of the coaching it should be a 500+ year.

Yeah the one thing I don't like about the Raiders last year

 Is the small receiving core, they were bad run blockers and that hurt the outside run wich made it easier on other teams but if Shilens and Murphy are the starters with a bulked up Bey at #3 they should do much better. With him and Bush they should be near the top ten in rushing and make Cambells job much easier. If big johne Henderson plays near his former form the D is looking awsome!

by Puck Head on Aug 16, 2010 5:03 PM EDT up reply actions  

I think Bey will be a big help this year. The D is definitely your biggest asset this year. Jay Richardson, Matt Shaughnessy, and Houston are going to be a good line along with Seymour moving to the inside. Lots of depth at DE at least.

Yeah Houston has big upside I don't know if he will be a starter but he has a great base

 In a year or two with the help of Seymour I expect him to do very well.

i think campbell and tebow may surprise some people this year.

Tebow didnt look bad last night but quinn did, if orton gets injured tebow will take his spot and never give it back…

I like the feeling of hunting down what I feed my family. If there’s a beast out there capable of hunting down Brock Lesnar, he would do it and make me the trophy on his den wall.

I dont think Lesnar is gona “smash” Cain, but I do think Lesnar will win. I think Cain has more tools ( than Carwin) to make it a good fight. Cains striking is crisper and he has top notch kicks. Cain may not have Carwins power but if he can kick the shit out of Brocks legs for 1/2 rounds who knows. Still think Brock is gona win, but it wont be a quick “smashing”

by JV. on Aug 16, 2010 4:36 PM EDT via mobile up reply actions  

Cain wins easy...

Carwin exposed Brock’s standup which everybody knew wasn’t the best…You can’t run away from grazing punches at this level of competition…what if Carwin doesn’t burn out? Cain has excellent standup not nearly as powerful as Carwin but it doesn’t have to be…Brock is done!

by Robert(1) on Aug 16, 2010 5:05 PM EDT up reply actions  

Cain has excellent standup not nearly as powerful as Carwin

No it’s not, he has power but not close to Carwins. Nore does he have the strength to fend off Brock like Carwin did. With Brock being out a year agaisnt Carwin and understanding that his stand up was brutal he will have a different approach for Cain.

The one thing I don't think many give Brock enough credit for

 Is his training and I believe the Brock that will be fighting October will be improved from the one that fought Carwin. Stick and move is one thing but taking the chance that you can get clipped with the big paws of Brock will be much more devestating than those of Kongo.

by Robert(1) on Aug 16, 2010 6:06 PM EDT up reply actions  

Yeah his stand up was bad last fight he needs to go back to square one with his stance agaisnt Mir and Couture and go from there

 He needs to adapt a different style with his wide shoulders there are to many holes with msot traditional stances. His camp should really look at other wide shouldered fighters and see if they can fifure something out from there. Some that come to mind are Hughes, Alves, Joe Daddy Stevenson… he doesn’t need to be great at it just decent enough to be able take the fight to the ground without taking punishment. If he does improve think his oppoennts chance will shrink greatly.

what you guys forget is that lesnar is the only one in this long line of people to win when he was out for over a year.

liddell, rampage, cote, akiyama and alves. lesnar won and he will be bigger and better prepared . it’s velasquez who now will not have fought for over 8 months. advantage lesnar and i got lesnar winning with tko in mid second round.

only thing i favor brock in is his strength and size.

Cain’s cardio will push brock to the max we already know he has a decent chin now lets found out if his cardio decent too>

WAR CAIN i hope he keeps it standing his striking looked crisp and improven against big nog

Brock is going to murder him

How can you even think different? He is huge and fast and Cain will get taken down without a doubt and laid on and beat to crap. I see this being stopped do to Cains face being demented from brocks non technical punches.

by Mir on Aug 16, 2010 5:49 PM EDT reply actions  

i understand people like Cain

But he is just to small in this case. I see Dos Santos as being the first to take out Brock due to an uppercut and quick TKO. Size does matter especially now when everyone knows Jitsu! Point in hand…Hughes faking up Gracie like it was nothing.

The only person who can potentiall defeat Brock is Carwin.

And he had his shot. Next time these two behemoths face off, Brock would have a better showing than what he did in the 1st round….

i agree with yopu but if carwin evr did get a second shot he would have a different gameplan

but i have my doubts that fight ever happens b/c of the latest news on carwin. i would still take brock too.
