He will face three good defenses in a row - Sea, Denv, and Cleve. We will find out if our offensive line problems will force the rookie to be on the move -- a lot.

i wanna see how fernandos legs helps our run game vs these top defenses, i dont see fernando being worse then kirk on passing accuracy but i do see his arm strength making a difference on window throws and deep throws

Sign me the f[raiders_icon]ck up. Whether it's good or bad, I'm anxious to see a talented young QB in Kubiak's system.

It's the deep throws. All in the plan I think. Probably see Thornton activated this week too.

No better place to learn. Get him in there against the best and see what he can do. And yea, he is going to take his lumps for sure. But that is what life is like as a rookie. He has seen it all from the sidelines, now he can see if all coming at him.

I have confidence that Kubiak will design a lot of quick stuff to get his feet under him, will still run a lot to take some pressure off of him, etc... He’s going to be careful with our boy for a while.

Mendoza need to get some playing time this season; and with the way Cousins playing with the raiders which has been mostly good; I don’t think Mendoza would get any game time….well now he would

...take it for what it is worth, but the reported on the NFL channel said that the raiders feel he is ready and (for what this is worth) 'has been dicing up our defense in practice'....
