While the benching of starting QB Jason Campbell was needed, the move created controversy. Coach Tom Cable handled the barrage of question well. "The reasons are pretty simple," Cable said. "First and foremost is the energy and the level of intensity that was brought into the huddle when he came into the game. The way the guys responded around him. And, obviously, scoring points. ... That's what we're about. If we can get this thing to where we can score 24 points a game, I think we'll be very tough to beat." Also Cable made sure to mention this is not going to be an issue in Oakland stating "When we did it, obviously, it was the right decision. It worked, and then as we talked about it here the last couple of days and came to a decision this morning," Cable said. "Again, we've made it, and there's no issues or controversies or anything like that. The decision's been made."
I truly think Bruce is the immediate answer to Oakland's stagnant passing game. Again the energy he gives our team that added boost we need on both sides of the football. I also think it is a great idea to make the move now to get Bruce a little more acclimated to being the startee because do not forget Raider Nation we face the Texans next and they seem to be for real this season.
I have been quite impressed by our Linebacking group. I love the new nick names for those of you that did not see the twitter post it is "Warden Wimbley welcomes you to Death Ro at San Quentin." Those Cardinals better beware. Especially be aware of Rolando McClain. He has proven he will destroy you!
