Rich Gannon was elusive! Look at that crazy mobility! It doesn't show up on the stat sheet in terms of rushing yards, but it is absolutely beautiful to watch! I wish Carson Palmer was that elusive. I don't even think that Jason Campbell has that kind of mobility. Seriously, that's Michael Vick like, except Gannon wasn't as fast.

@paydog23

I agree. If you watch that last TD play, Gannon did soooo many things MAKE that play. One of the finest individual efforts I've ever seen,by a QB who used his legs to set up that pass.. An amazing display.

WOW! Rich Gannon should have taken Brady's spot in Super Bowl 46. That many dropped passes and he still led them down the field. HAHAHA!

Gotta love Gruden's response after the Zach Crokett drop, but hey if he caught it Gannon would've been denied that excellent play.

This is the first year I got into football, from 2000 onwards I've been devout ever since, however I don't recall this year too well. this was the last season before Janikowski came out of college... and it's so weird to see a right-footed kicker in the Silver and Black! My experience has basically only been with the left-footed Seabass.

great comeback!

if only gruden would come back to the raiders haha

[LoyalRaiderFan]

when you watch these, does it almost become like it's happening now? It does for me...and I root and yell even though it happened 12 years ago....

[paydog23]

@raiders247online It really was a fine individual effort. Rich Gannon was my favorite Raider when I was a kid and it pains me that I only have vague recollections of his play. Thankfully, your videos supplement my long-gone memories.

The most impressive part about Gannon's athleticism and mobility out of the pocket was his age! The dude was 34 here, and he continued being elusive well into his late thirties. His rushing TD in the 2002 AFC Championship game against the Titans sealed the deal!

@raiders247online Gannon is prime example of how overrated Al Davis the football man is/was. He never preferred Gannon...not a big enough arm. But Gannon had intangibles off the board. A LEADER, the hardest worker, someone willing to challenge his teammates...they fell in line with him because he made it known that the b/s the Raiders did wouldn't be tolerated. Gruden was an awesome coach, but yeah...we wouldn't have had the success we had w/o Gannon under center.

If gannon was our head coach we would be penalized about 40% less. He wouldn't tolerate mediocrity.

Gannon is better Gruden. Gannon made those teams. Made everyone better. Gruden was good but overrated. Ask Tony Dungy.

@raidersfan8 fuck that hes a fuckin trader fuck him hugh better

[the80sguy]

@raidersfan8 Me Too, They should have given him whatever he wanted, They should have NEVER left him go to Tampa =(

[BSGabesterrFan]

every video you have those idiots that ask things like, "what year was this" when it says it right in the title.... i.e. the idiot below me....

[mrmajikjr]

Only a couple of years ago, they were the silver and black-ed out.

[alfredojr71]

Real Silver & Black... Go Oak Raiders!!!

[BIGG209]

@KingRaj91 damn i was a 8 to and cant remember much

[CBH]

Wow that Wr corp was horrendous except for Timmy!

[thebabycakes71]

Maker that Gannon ...lol

[thebabycakes71]

If Timmy had been quicker it would have been a td. Crockett sucks..and to that guy beneath me that said Gabon would bee our couch....ah..no!!!! I like Gannon butt hue Jackson is our guy

[greenday103921guns]

Well it took almost a decade but I think the SILVER AND BLACK ARE BACK BABY!!!!!!!

[DragonDDT]

when NFL uniforms had sleeves!

[OmarMetalcore]

See! THIS is football! Did you all see how Tim Brown caught that pass in the 5 yard line and didn't give a massive show boat(which he was entitled to)? New players need to take a lesson or two from old NFL.

[NYJYIK]

@AllPro777 Of course he didnt quit, but he was devastated after this game.
