When I was in the coaching ranks I learned a simple lesson. When something works exploit it until it fails. What an exercise in futility that game yesterday proved. In over-time the Raiders kicked butt for two downs by sending everything but the kitchen sink at Garcia and it worked. Then for some reason on 3rd down they dropped into a zone and allowed the niners to complete passes for first downs. (I like to watch the games without sound. it gives me a chance to make my own decisions without the commentators' influence). That was more than futility. it was stupidity. George
