Getting back to your calls and texts, we didn't have any on Thursday since we had the crossover edition, but we will hear from you. Plenty of great subjects about the game, conversation about Brock Bowers, and more. We'll do that in segment number three. Segment number two, if Brock Bowers cannot go on Monday, somebody will have to step up. Who will that be? I got a few ideas. We'll talk about it in segment number two. Here in segment number one, news and notes of the day, and as you can imagine, it has to do with our tied in, Brock Bowers. We'll get right to that after I tell you about the title sponsor of the show, which is Mazda. Like all the Raider players, they sweat every detail. So does Mazda, because when you make every move count, pulling off the unexpected is the only beginning. Stay tuned later for highlights in this week's moving the game forward. Mazda, move, and be moved. So let's go ahead and jump right into it. The Raiders did get back to practice on Thursday. They had an off day on Wednesday. Of course, they'll be practicing here today on Friday, also on Saturday, off on Sunday, with the game being on Monday. So what that means is we got our first look at the injury report. We got our first opportunity to talk to head coach Pete Carroll, and we got our first opportunity to get inside the Raiders locker room. We'll do that again today. We'll do it on Saturday. And then 90 minutes before kickoff on Monday, we'll find out who the inactives are. So looking at the Raiders and the Chargers for the injury report on Thursday. The Raiders only had two guys on the injury report. The problem is the guys are very important players for the silver and black.

Tide-in Brock Bowers dealing with the knee injury. DMP did not participate.

Saw him in the Raiders locker room with a big compression sleeve on his legs. So that's something that he normally doesn't have. Obviously, he left the game on Sunday against the Patriots with that

knee injury and all the reports coming out of that game

was that he would be fine to go back into the game if they really needed him. They held him out

for precautionary purposes. But again, seeing the compression sleeve on his leg, the entire leg

on Thursday inside the Raiders locker room definitely had cause for a concern. And also linebacker, Landon Roberts, with the elbow injury, DMP did not participate.

He's the guy that went down after 11 snaps on Sunday against the Patriots.

Tommy Eichenberg came in and filled that void.

But Devin White really picked up the pace by leading the team in tackles with 11,

a few tackles for loss, and really was

sideline to sideline flying around the field and look like not Tampa Bay, Devin White, but LSU, Devin White. So those are the only two guys that were on the Raiders side of the report for the injury report. Again, we'll get another one today and Saturday. But for the Chargers, they have four guys on their injury report.

Defensive back Elijah Mulden dealing with the hamstring injury was limited on Thursday.

Linebacker Denzel Perryman, obviously we know him very well.

Ankle injury, DMP did not participate.
