For the past National Football League seasons most teams love to play the Oakland Raiders since they have better chances of winning against them.
The Raiders for the past NFL seasons had been called the favorite whipping boys of most teams in the premier professional football league in the planet.
However, this year such a tag will not hold water anymore as the Raiders are playing inspired and great determination to move into the top of the NFL echelon.
Last Sunday (October 24), the Raiders showed the Denver Broncos they are a far different team in the 2010 NFL season as they demolish the home-team 59-14.
The 59 points scored by the Raiders is considered as the most points in their 51-year history.
Raiders running back Darren McFadden was the gem of the night for the team as he scored four touchdowns and had a stunningly quick start to bring tears to the fans of the Broncos and create smiles to his team and their countless fans all over the globe.
McFadden was simply great in the game as he defy the tough defense put up by the Broncos to put the Raiders to a 3-4 win-loss record and dropped the Broncos to 2-5.
Raiders coach Tom Cable was very happy with their victory and vowed his team will play even harder so that they will get the chance to enter the NFL playoffs and even compete for the Super Bowl this year.
While the Raiders are celebrating, the Broncos are mourning since it is their fourth loss at home without a win.
Broncos coach Josh McDaniels apologized to the franchise and its fans for being win-less at home.
In the game, the Broncos was clearly overplayed as the Raiders pepper them with points that lead to their lopsided loss.
The loss of the Broncos was also partly blamed on the injuries suffered by three of its key defensive player namely emotional leader Brian Dawkins (knee), cornerback Andre’ Goodman (thigh) and linebacker Robert Ayers (foot).
Despite their loss, the Broncos are still very much confident of their chances in the 2010 NFL season.
