WEEK 1 addendum

THE REST OF THE REST OF THE WEST:

THE EAST BAY CRIMINALS: Who are these guys, and what have they done with the Raiders? They played poised, focused and with heart. Sure, they were badly out-gunned, but the defense was stifling. They stayed in their lanes, and didn't melt down. JaMarcus Russell is a bigger, stronger Tyler Thigpen. Unless the Chiefs put more pressure on him, and find a way to patch that leak in the middle, Zach Miller will have a big day next Sunday.

THE NORTH MEXICO BOLTS: Every time I get all tingly about the truck load of talent on this team, I am reminded that they are still coached by Norv Turner. They should have won by 30, with the talent disparity, but they had to eek out a win in the final 18 seconds. The Chargers looked like the Raiders, melting down, turning the ball over, killing drives with stupid penalties.

Your faithful scribe,
Mr Doggity
