Lechler tries to help even when it's not fourth down

ALAMEDA – When all Hades is breaking loose, when the very walls of the organization are crumbling, to whom do you think the young and impressionable denizens of Raider Nation turn a lonely eye? The quarterback? Nah, JaMarcus Russell is too busy deflecting criticism and loosening up his throwing arm by tossing receivers under the bus. The defensive ends who know what winning feels like after coming...

Struggling special teams fires up Raiders coach

BRANT WARD S.F. Chronicle file, 2008 Johnnie Lee Higgins, who returned three punts for TDs last season, OAKLAND -- With his long, lanky build, John Fassel more closely resembles Ichabod Crane than your stereotypical football lifer. And yet, when the Raiders' first-year special-teams coach unloaded on his charges in a meeting last week, it was not all that surprising. After all, the Raiders' special...

A Convergence of New and Old Punting Styles

Booming spirals by bigger kickers, like the Raiders’ Shane Lechler, are easier to control, more difficult to catch and harder to block.

Tom Coughlin Wednesday Press Conference:

Good morning. As you prepare to face the Oakland Raiders, you can’t help but see some very, very obvious things, arguably the best kicking game in football. (Shane) Lechler, (Sebastian) Janikowski, strong, strong legs; guys that boom the ball. They change field position on you. The punter, last week against Houston, after a safety he punts the ball from the [...]

Raiders' Russell still has a lot to learn

ALAMEDA – You want to give JaMarcus Russell the benefit of the doubt. Really, you do. He's a kid, you remind yourself. A mere babe who, at 24, still is the third-youngest starting quarterback in the NFL. A phenom with a rocket launcher for an arm who still is trying to find his way after losing his father figure this offseason when his beloved uncle Ray passed away. But before you give him a...

Scifres, Lechler friendly competition

Chargers punter Mike Scifres and Raiders punter Shane Lechler are widely regarded as the top two players at their position. The two are fierce competitors on the field and good friends away from it.

Dan Daly: Those undrafted gems now difficult to mine

There's no better story in any NFL training camp than when an undrafted college kid - facing odds longer than a Shane Lechler punt - makes the team. It's just so American, so Land of Opportunity. Two years ago at Redskin Park, that kid was Stephon Heyer, the former Maryland Terp, who earned a spot as a backup offensive tackle with his impassioned blocking. This year's under-the-radar type was Edwin...

Deep Preseason Thoughts

If I had the time to play fantasy football this year, I would just make sure to load up on as many running backs that will play against the Raiders this season as possible. They have no run D. They're vulnerable against power sweeps around the edge; they get burnt on gap blocks up the middle. They gave up over 250 yards against Frank Gore and a bunch of scrubs. I like #7 pick Darrius Heyward-Bey a...

This week in the Finding the Winning Factors series , let's take a look at a common, but rarely looked at: Net Punting Average . This stat came about after the Colts playoff game back in January, for good reason. Mike Scifres significantly helped the Chargers , but can the punter and punt coverage be a significant factor in winning games? Here's how I calculated it: (Punt Yards - Return Yards) / Punts...

10 questions with Brantly

It's easy to draw comparisons between rookie punter Justin Brantly and Shane Lechler, the former Texas A&M and current All-Pro punter for the Raiders who was selected in the fifth round of the 2000 draft. Both Brantly and Lechler were Aggie standouts, and Brantly never averaged less than 43 yards per punt in four years at A&M. His 45.7-yard average as a senior put him among the national...
