There is typical Raiders' bad. And then there is record-breaking Raiders' bad.

Today, Raiders' fans got the latter.

In today's 38-0 shutout loss at the hands of the New York Jets, the Raiders set a record for the worst home loss in franchise history, per Jerry McDonald of the Oakland Tribune.

If you're a glass-half-full person, the good news is that the Raiders disappointed fewer fans than normal. There were only 39,354 fans in attendance, which is their worst home crowd since 1968.

During their record-setting performance, the Raiders benched "franchise" (in Al Davis' eyes) quarterback JaMarcus Russell, who coach Tom Cable says will start next week, for back-up Bruce Gradkowski.

"I've never been in that situation," Russell said. "It was kind of shocking to me at first. I felt like [Coach Tom Cable] thought his decision was the right thing to do. Once Bruce got in, I became a cheerleader. I had no problem with that."

Despite finding it "shocking," Russell isn't accepting any blame.

"I don't think it's me personally," Russell said, per David White of the San Francisco Chronicle. "I really don't. It's a bad combination of one guy doesn't do something right one time. ..."

It sounds like Cable needs to knock some sense into this guy.
