The Raiders’ pass concept menu was limited. This was apparent on third-and-long, when they would constantly run the same concepts, making them predictable. The Raiders don’t have a lot of talent at wide receiver, but it’s even harder to get open when defenders know where you’re running.

In Week 2, against the Chargers, quarterback Geno Smith was picked off on the first play. Safety Alohi Gilman broke on a seam pass and tipped the ball to a fellow defender. They had run the play successfully and repeatedly against the Patriots in Week 1. The Chargers clearly watched the film and were anticipating it.

The following week against the Bears, Smith was intercepted on third-and-long while trying to throw to the dig in a dagger concept. On the next third-and-long, Kelly called the same play, and Smith was intercepted again. College play callers don’t need a high volume of pass concepts to go to. You can’t get away with that in the NFL.

There has also been a clear lack of detail in the passing game. When a quarterback gets to the top of his drop, there should be a receiver looking back or getting ready to make his break. There were too many instances in which Smith would get to the top of his drop to find that there wasn’t a receiver getting ready to break or cut, causing him to hold the ball. The timing of the passing game was consistently off.

The biggest issue has been the offensive line. Yes, there is a big talent-deficiency issue there, but the Raiders’ scheme didn’t offer players help. In fact, they’ve been put into more difficult situations because of the scheme. Kelly was supposed to be a run-game savant, but the Raiders’ running game has been one of the worst in the league. The Raiders lead the league in the rate of run plays that lead to negative yardage (17.81 percent). Jeanty is constantly getting hit in the backfield. The scheme is unsound.

They also fired Chip’s offensive assistant coach Bob Bicknell.

Then how did Derek Carr throw for 4000 yards in four straight years?

Oh god. Not this shit again.

Carr was mediocrity defined. Over his last 6 years we average 19-20 ppg. He averaged 19 TDs per year. He sucked in the red zone and refused to use his legs to pick up first downs.

Lots of yards between the 20s, jackshit where it mattered. If the pussy wouldn't have had such a great kicker, his record would be far, far worse than it is.

Not to mention that he couldn't execute in the 3rd quarter.

I wish they had stats for how much yardage was accumulated during garbage time, I would bet that half of Carr's career yardage was during garbage time against prevent defenses after he shit the bed for the first half and the games were already out of reach in the second half.

So the Raiders gave up 10 sacks, I think that ties the most in team history but Carroll's son still has a job.
This whole staff is 1 and done , pointless to keep them, nothing to build on, Carroll is a lame duck coach anyway so the whole continuity argument is out the window.

Spytek would fire Petes son if he had any balls.

[GoodTimeCharlie]

Spytek would fire Petes son if he had any balls.

We may never know the truth, but history suggests that Spytek has been essentially castrated by the stupidest owner in sports, Mr. Failson Dipshit, who either refuses, or is incapable, of learning from mistakes.

The cult comes out of hiding every so often. I was even recently told Carr was a franchise QB. They fail to see the difference between a starter and a franchise QB. One gets you some wins. The other accepts nothing but wins.

Having a future HOF QB helps

Chip will not, can not, should not coach in the league again.

Pete will not, can not, should not coach in the league again.

Mark will not, can not, should not own a team in the league again.

Brady isn’t the messiah.

Carr was average on a good day.

I could go on but this is depressing.
