Records with an asterisk next to em mean nothing.

^^^^ This 

Haters, between Krapernik, and the Fader nation I don't know what you guys are puling for?  Out of 32 teams, Krapernick is ranked 34th in the league, your old quarterback is ranked 16th WTG!

Nuff said.

 ....Too soon? 

For all you 49er faithfulls! LMAO!!!

I have been listening to the Raider Whine for a long damn time, but in the case of the "tuck rule," you  were using the tuck rule decades before to get your first Super bowl, or did your forget that?  So when it happens to you, how loud you whined and have been whining, and you have whined in purgatory since.


1976 AFC Playoff:

A much forgotten smash mouth football matchup between the Raiders and Patriots.

The game was filled with countless no-call penalties, dirty play and cheap shots including one where Raider George Atkinson breaks the nose of Russ Francis with a blow to the facemask.

By most accounts, the majority of the "dirty play" and no call penalties were committed by the Raiders.

In a prior regular season matchup between the two teams, the Raiders suffered the season's only blemish in a 48-17 beating by the Patriots. The Raiders finished the season 13-1.

Trailing by 21-17 deep in the fourth quarter, the Raiders marched down the field into Patriot territory, eventually facing a 3rd and 18 from the Patriot 28 yard line.

On the ensuing play Raider QB Ken Stabler is met by Patriot nose-tackle Raymond Hamilton. Stabler manages to get rid of the ball as he is being taken down.

All hope seems lost for the Raiders, now facing 4th and 18 down four points.

Then a late flag is thrown for a roughing the passer penalty on Hamilton. And instead of 4th and 18 from the 28 it is now first and 10 from the 13.

Five plays later, the Raiders score on a 1 yard run by Stabler with less than 10 seconds in the game. The Raiders win 24-21 and go on to beat the Steelers in the AFC championship and then the Vikings in the Super Bowl.

After the game, Hamilton swore that there was no penalty and even Stabler admits he doesn't feel he was roughed.

Some would even argue that incomplete pass on third and 18 was a fumble and was ironically similar to the "Tuck Rule"

For all you 49er faithfulls! LMAO!!!

Poor squidward 

Not poor me pablito, Every team goes through swings, ours swung to positive. Your team since 2001 well has just been bouncing in last place for a while.

Lol.....going to Google for a retort???!?!?!?

That bleacher report is an interesting piece but citing no calls/bad calls/ dirty plays from a game in 1976 is really reaching.

The pats have openly admitted to stealing playbooks, recording team signals and now deflating footballs....and that's just the stuff that they've had to cop to since they got caught, who knows what else they're up to. That's not playing dirty.....that's just flat out cheating....and this era's pats will forever be synonymous with scandal.  Whether pats fans want to admit it or not.
