The Raiders and their fans have resorted to all manner of tricks in their quest to keep running back Darren McFadden healthy and, thus, give their team a realistic chance to sniff the aroma of success. On Sunday, with the Raiders holding a 14-3 lead over Washington, McFadden limped into the O.co Coliseum locker room on a cranky hamstring in the second quarter, though he returned briefly, unsuccessfully, Oakland never scored again and wound up eating a 24-14 loss to a previously winless team. Source: Sacramento Bee Sweets's Take: Again McFadden is injured, no wonder he wants to stay with the Raiders, they're the only ones who look the other way in reference to his injuries and continue to turn a blind eye to his contribution to the team.
He definitely has trouble staying on the field. If he could just stay healthy, he would be one of the better backs in the league
