RAIDERS BEAT DOLPHINS 31-18 - The OAKLAND RAIDERS finally brought their ground game to the field as Josh Wright & Shaphan Brown established a solid run that made the rest of the game so much easier for the RAIDERS both offensively and defensively. OAKLAND running the ball not only opened things up for the passing game but also chewed up small chunks of yardage all while eating up the clock. This put pressure on the DOLPHINS offense to score quickly which made things easier on the RAIDERS defense as they knew exactly what MIAMI was planning to try to do. It also hurt the DOLPHINS that starting QB Frankie Parker missed the first half & Jeremiah Hamilton pulled up with a sore hammy in the contest along with Justin Durston being unavailable for the game at all vs. the RAIDERS. Today just wasnt MIAMIs day as this game belonged to the OAKLAND RAIDERS. --- for the OAKLAND RAIDERS (31) --- ------------------------------------------------------- - Josh Wright threw 2 TD passes, rushed for 2 TDs & grabbed 5 flags - Lester Crosby caught 1 TD pass & grabbed 4 flags - Jason Reynolds caught 1 TD pass & grabbed 4 flags - Shaphan Brown grabbed 7 flags & had 3 sacks - Evan Vaughan grabbed 4 flags - Austyn Green grabbed 3 flags - Dillon Buchanan grabbed 3 flags - Ben Lennon grabbed 3 flags - Chris Reynolds grabbed 2 flags ---- --- for the MIAMI DOLPHINS (18) --- -------------------------------------------------- - Frankie Parker threw 2 TD passes & grabbed 3 flags - Jesse Brown caught 1 TD pass & grabbed 6 flags - Jeremy Eagen caught 1 TD pass & grabbed 4 flags - Jeremiah Hamilton grabbed 5 flags - BJ Gibson grabbed 4 flags - Brandon Smith grabbed 4 flags - Mark Vincent grabbed 4 flags It feels really good to get into the win column as I know that we are a better team than we have played the last few weeks. The pep talk before the game from Ice Cube really pumped us up & got us ready to play & the smoke session with him and Snoop after the game didnt hurt either. Bottom line is this game is all about respect & we got a little bit of that respect back today with the win over MIAMI. Next week its back to the same intensity with hopefully the same results as the FREAKSHOW & OAKLAND are ready to play & all teams better know that their is no quit in any of us. Be ready to get all we got because the RAIDERS are comin. RAIDERS rookie Lester Crosby told reporters after the game. Like I said in my comments earlier in the week this team will not lose when running on full cylinders & I wasnt there, Frankie was out for the first half I mean the RAIDERS just caught us on a lucky day I mean even the sun shines on a dogs ass once in awhile right. All I can say is we will see those guys again & when we do things are going to be very different DOLPHINS rookie Justin Durston said in a phone interview after the game.
