Gradkowski has been off so far.
The Raiders have laid an egg in the first half of their game against Dallas. Bruce Gradkowski has woefully inaccurate. The Raiders were able to run the ball farily well, but could not back it up with a passing game. The Raiders defense collapsed in the second quarter and the Cowboys moved the ball well.
- The Cowboys have challenged Nnamdi Asomugha and he has given up two catches.
- The defense has been victimized by big plays.
- Trevor Scott dropped an interception. He also collided with Tyvon Branch and prevented another interception.
- Justin Fargas has been running the ball well. 9 runs for 56 yards.
- The Raiders had early success by motioning Darren McFadden out of the backfield to a receiver position. That set up Fargas's running and McFadden also had a catch for 16 yards out of that situation.
- In yet another odd play during a Raider game, Miles Austin appeared to be tackled by Chris Johnson, but got up and ran in in for the touchdown. The ruling on the field was that Austin was on Johnson and not the ground. However, the TD was taken off the board once the replay showed that his lower leg had been on the ground.
- The last four drives by the Cowboys have been two touchdowns, field goal, and a missed field goal.
- The Raiders defense is in full implosion mode.
- Bruce Gradkowski has been quite inaccurate. 5-15 for 42 yards. Most of his throws haven't been on target. Only one drop, and that was Chaz Schilens. However, that ball was also off the mark.
