Oakland Raiders - A Closer Look
Established in 1960, the Raiders enjoyed some early success, winning an AFL Championship in 1967. It was with the hiring of John Madden in 1969, however, that the modern image of the Raiders as a band of talented renegade ne’er do wells was established. The Raiders didn’t care so much about putting a team of good citizens on the field. “Just win, baby” was the motto and during the seventies Madden’s teams lived up to it in spades. Oakland won it all in ’76, ’80 and ’83 and holders of
Raiders tickets witnessed only seven losing seasons between 1963 and 2002. Of course there was plenty of turbulence along the way, with the team being moved to Los Angeles in 1982 and then back to Oakland in 1995. Either way, the list of great players that you could see in action with a pair of Raiders tickets in the ‘60s, ‘70s and ‘80s is nearly unparalleled in any other franchise. Blanda, Biletnikoff, Caspar, Haynes, Hendricks, Shell, Upshaw, and Howie Long come immediately to mind. It’s only right that the team should return to greatness sometime in the near future and only right that you should get some
Oakland Raider tickets so you’re there when it happens.
For all the struggles of recent seasons, let’s not forget that there is a nucleus of good young talent in place. Grab your
Raiders tickets now, because Darren McFadden has yet to bust out and he’s loaded with potential, and there’s reason to believe that 2010 could be the year with Campbell around to stabilize the huddle and the passing game. Defensively, Nnamdu Asomugha is as good a cornerback and as quiet a star as there is in the
NFL. Those who’ve purchased Raiders tickets in the past can attest that Asomugha, at least, lives up to the famous “commitment to excellence” standard. The acquisition of defensive linemen Richard Seymour last year gave the Raider defense another perennial
Pro Bowler and now comes linebacker Rolando McClain, the #8 overall pick in the draft from Alabama. McClain should go a long way towards addressing the team’s issues in defending the run.
