In the Denver Post this week, not only are they posting pictures of Al Davis and asking for readers to send in their mocking captions; they are already talking about the Denver Bronco's Nov. 30th game against the New York Jets.
Blog posts in Denver Bronco forums talk about how the two division leading teams of the Jets and Broncos should be playing in prime time Nov. 30th for the two prolific offenses with stud Quarterbacks to dual it out.
Who can blame the Denver Broncos and their Rocky Mountain fanbase after the beatdown they put on the Oakland Raiders in their first game of the season.
The Broncos embarrassed the Raiders in Oakland and on national TV.

Denver also beat Atlanta last Sunday and just a couple of weeks ago Atlanta blanked the Raiders 24-0.
The Broncos are just far superior, with their creative, tricky, genius and Super Bowl winning Coach Mike Shanahan, their John-Elway-like QB in Jake Cutler, and their Orange Crush Defense.
Compare that to the aspiring Raider coach Tom Cable, a wandering "trying to find himself" QB in JaMarcus Russell, and a timid O-line that walks, talks, and acts like the girlie-men of the NFL, as Denver blog posts describe.
Denver's D may just slap the girlie-men around this Sunday because they can see the Raiders apparently like it.
The fans always turn out in Denver for their favorite team they love to hate and they are going to show up this Sunday expecting to observe Raider's Offensive tackle Kwame Harris false start once or twice in each of the Raider possessions.
Just go ahead and add another win to Denver's record.
Why even play the game...Right?
No one is expecting the talented Oakland team everyone talks about as having potential show up...Right?
Nobody is expecting the Raiders D to continue its beatdown play of the past two weeks...Right?
Nobody is expecting JM to play hurt and show his leadership and talent more like Elway than Cutler could ever achieve throwing and scrambling for first downs...Right?

As the Kansas City Chiefs have taught us, the Broncos can not afford to overlook anyone, hence, they won't. Oakland is just flat out awful, and the Broncos know it, but that doesn't mean they will overlook the Raiders. The Raiders have overlooked this entire season.
Regardless, these two teams are always fun to watch, but come on now. Beatdown D?

I have been a Bronco fan all my life and I know one thing. The record does not matter and the previous game these two teams played does not matter. Both teams will come to play because their pride is on the line. Let's face it. The Raiders will come to play on Sunday so the Broncos had better strap them up tight and come to play because the Raiders all ways do when its the Broncos.

Haha, I actually just finished writing an article saying that the Broncos need to NOT look past the Raiders.

I guess the rivalry hasn't gotten to the sympathy stage yet where stomping on a corpse isn't fun anymore. What will Denver fans do when the raiders franchise collapses entirely (almost there now but a yard shy)? Can you hate the chiefs and chargers more? Doubtful!

Raidersteve, you have some identity issues. I wouldn't give my password out if I were you.
But c'mon? The Broncos really don't have "Orange Crush Defense" anymore and the Raiders D is not really beating anyone down...
And I think the Broncos did learn their lesson week 4. That shouldn't happen again.

I love reading these posts. I've had laughs from them for years. The Broncos hate us Raiders so much more than we have ever hated them because they just aren't worthy of respect. The thing is...Broncos and their fans know it! They just can't get anywhere without Elway, and while they go on and on about their coach, he just hasn't gotten anything done since his quarterback retired. LOL. What's worse is...he can't get over it! He still whines and bitches and moans about how badly mean ol' Al Davis treated him. He's like a bitter, jilted first wife who got dumped for the younger, prettier version. He just can't quit going on and on about it, and he has no idea how pathetic he is for having no life since then. So the Broncos do their thing. The same old thing. "We hate the Raiders"...look at us....take us seriously"....lol. All the while, they try and forget that no matter how bad they are right now, the Raiders still hold the lifetime win records against the Broncos....and they've won superbowls without their one quarterback....unlike the Broncos...who struggle to be taken seriously every year. But Hey! I'm sure you're right. The Broncos will likely win the division this year! They may even be at 50-50 ball when they do it! They'll live to play one playoff game....as usual. One game. One game when a real team sends them home again. Congratulations! You must be so proud. :)
