Lane Kiffin had concerns about depth on the Oakland Raiders even before two key offensive players went down with season-ending knee injuries.

Those worries have only been heightened now that receiver Drew Carter and fullback Oren O'Neal went down with injuries early in Saturday night's 24-0 loss to Arizona.

The Raiders take a hit.

No idea who O'Neal is...Drew Carter looked pretty good against us.

That's too bad about the injuries, but man does it feel good to see the raiders doing horrible. The fans were so loud and confident coming into the season to, haha.

Drew Carter gets hurt every year. No shock there.

Oren O'neil is a good Fullback, its just that he is a 2nd year player so he is not well known, but the Raiders have Griffith, who is a good FB so they will be fine.

They were already thin at receiver and I expect them to pick someone up after teams start to make cuts. Maybe they will go after Lelie after we cut him.

Carter is pretty overrated. Hes good for about 15-20 catches all season.

O'Neal isnt a huge loss cause of Griffith.

Here is their assessment of Kwame after the AZ game...we never knew ya...LOL!!!!

"“Our pass protection was not very good,” Kiffin said afterward. “It looked like Kwame (Harris) struggled a lot. ... (We) missed probably at least 4 blitzes. Guys bounced off guys and came free, or we just got beat on them. I was very discouraged. It just kind of reminded me of who we are.”

Wow, that's almost a Bill Callahan-esque comment..."It just kind of reminded me of who we are."
