I just pulled this up from an article I found that had been posted by CBS an hour ago on a Los Angeles news site. I don't put it past Kiffin to yank Culpepper this week if he sucks and throw Russell out there. This could be a ray of hope. Or, it could mean that Jamarcus is listed as #3 and would only play if the two starters were hurt. I don't know what to make of it. But I like it.

Russell Moves Up Raiders QB Depth Chart
(CBS) ALAMEDA It may be a matter of time before JaMarcus Russell see's action for the Raiders.

Head Coach Lane Kiffin told the Oakland Tribune that Russell has passed Andrew Walter on the depth chart..

Russell is still listed behind current starter Daunte Culpepper and backup Josh McCown. However, Kiffin did say there could be a situation where Russell did see some action versus the Titans.

I'd be perfectly fine with this.

Get him a series or two per game to get him used to the speed. That will help his learning curve a lot more than throwing him in as a starter and praying.

He'll likely continue to be the emergency QB and not active baring injury to all the active QB'.

I' d love to see Russell get some action but I'd still wait a few more weeks. Whatever happens, I'm in.

Poor Andrew Walter man. This guy got the deluxe Tui treatment after taking the pipe for us last season.

Seriously, he has talent and a live arm... I'm surprised he can't beat out Bevis or Butthead for a top two spot on the depth chart :confused:

You can't go outside and play if Mommy says no.

Doesn't look like Jamarcus will be getting any time today unless Culpepper and McCown get hurt.

Even then apparently. It appears that Russell is on the inactive list.
