Oakland Raiders Start Season with a Member of the Hall of Fame

Things have changed for the Oakland Raiders' players. Art Shell's first training camp practice showed things will be different for the Raiders representatives this season. At the end of the first practice 12 players were running around the field as punishment for penalties, among them: Rashad Moore and Randy Moss.

LaMont Jordan declared Shell's standards should be met and if the players don't get to do it, they won't be there. Among the new parameters they have to meet are: minimize penalties, minimize mistakes and play sensible football.

With these new restrictions Shell pretends to order the sprints for players who jump offsides or commit false starts, and bringing back the macho pit drill that he hopes will inspire toughness into the team.

The Oakland Raiders led the NFL with 147 infractions last year, frequently putting the offense in a hole or keeping the defense on the field for extra plays. Shell said he can live with penalties of aggression but he can't deal with careless pre-snap penalties that usually are a matter of concentration.

After losing three seasons in a row, the Raiders have received well the old-school approach. Oakland Raiders won only 13 games in three years under Bill Callahan and Turner since going to the Super Bowl following the 2002 season.

Al Davis who came aboard in 1963 to coach and eventually own the team brought back Art Shell, his coach from 1989-94, to bring back the Oakland Raiders to their glory days. Shell is part of the Hall of Fame.
