QB Josh McCown Will Start For Oakland

With QB Daunte Culpepper hurting and QB JaMarcus Russell still a rookie, QB Josh McCown will start on Sunday. He had a great game on Sunday against Denver, but Football Outsiders currently has him ranked 48th out of the 49 QBs who have thrown at least 78 passes this season. Only the dynamic duo in San Francisco of QB Trent Dilfer (49th) and QB Alex Smith (47th) are anywhere near as bad as McCown this season. His poor season isn't a product of playing on a bad offense either because QB Daunte Culpepper has a positive rating according to FO and is ranked 23rd overall.

Russell
I don't understand why he is not playing. The Raiders have nothing to play for, so why not see what they have in their #1 pick? I know that there are times to sit your rookie QBs, but this doesn't seem like a good one. A guy taken number one overall has to be expected to lead the team in the future. I would think they would want to hand over the offense to him next year and I think getting playing time now with no expectations would do him a world of good
