I'll post some highlights from the article:

Jackson has gotten dramatic improvement from a Raiders offense despite using two quarterbacks, not having a veteran wide receiver and breaking in a rookie left tackle in Jared Veldheer. He’s encorporated some power blocking schemes with Cable’s stretch-and-cut zone.

How about 21 touchdowns through eight games _ that’s four more touchdowns than they scored all last seasons. That puts the Raiders on pace for 40 touchdowns or more, a figure they haven’t reached since getting 53 in 2002, and we all remember what happened that season.

Here’s a look at where the Raiders are through eight games with Jackson as opposed to their output last season and their rank in the NFL:

Total offense: 2010_8th, 366.0; 2009_31st, 266.0

Points per game: 2010_4th, 26.5; 2009_31st, 12.3

First downs per game: 2010_10th, 20.1; 2009_31st, 14.6

Rushing yards per game: 2010_2nd, 168.5; 2009_21st, 106.3

Rushing touchdowns: 2010_tie, 2nd, 9; 2009_27th, 7

Passing yards per game: 2010_20th, 197.5; 2009_29th, 159.8

Third-down pct_2010_20th, 34.7 percent; 2009_30th_29.6 percent

Time of possession:2010_8th, 32:14; 2009_27th, 28:18

Touchdowns: 2010_4th, 21; 2009_31st, 17

    • …is Brycen Tremayne with 108 yards. Not sure what that tells us but I imagine it’s some sort of gumbo consisting of the following: - Bryce can’t push the ball downfield  - contrary to what many were saying this offseason, the wr still needs a lot of work.  - we need Coker back badly.  - Brycen is pretty good! Congrats to that young man! Curious to hear other’s read on it. Was a pretty surprised to see he had more yards than anyone other than Tet and thought that was symptomatic of our issues on offense. 
    • I don’t think many fans would have guessed the Chiefs and Ravens would be where they are right now. Same goes for some surprise packages like the Colts, I’m not sure many would have put money on them being top of their division after five weeks. It’ll be interesting to see if this continues!   Not necessarily. The Chargers have lost both starting OL and their 1st and 2nd choice RBs. They fell apart against Washington. The Broncos have just beat the Eagles, so they’d be my favourite in that division, but they are still only one win ahead of the Chiefs. All the Chiefs need is a couple of results to go their way and they’ll be right in the fight for the AFC East. I think that division is going to be very close and probably not a 12 or 13 win division like predicted. Unless of course the Broncos kick on.
