Raiders Go To Texas Tonight, The Game Day Thread

[Attyla]

So here is another look at the new team, and hopefully the view is better, especially on the D.

What are you watching, what are you wanting, and most importantly we need to get out of there without harm to anyone.

Time to see more, and hopefully a few of the youngsters start to shine.

This is a most excellent time for the biggest shit eaters on the forum to pop up and beat their chests.

[Opoponax50]

Yeah, he's not playing this year.

Not yet.

But jeez, cut the kid some slack. ... God, that was a shitty throw.

Anyway, unlike most teams, we get to sit him for a year unless he's somehow ready before that... bah, whatever. We'll see what happens eventually.

[mranquales]

I can already see it: going to be annoying QB and RB bust talk all year.

[DeathStar24]

Can't help a rookie QB starting off 2nd and long.

Que???

[Raidernation1979]

That was a nice throw with pressure in his face. Cole’s great punt negated by a dummy

[DrDUne]

Man, can’t even capitalize on a good punt

This has been dysfunctional.

[powski]

Que???

Missing word "time" added.

I haven't lost any faith in Mendoza. I just know from his interviews and now this game that he won't be playing this year. It's preseason and the coach is "hiding" him on offense. We're running the ball with our RB2 exclusively, even on long down-and-distance.

[charlieinblack]

were usually good in preseason and suck when the season starts for reals

[ALLRAIDERWORLD21]

Texans have Clowney playing on their 2nd team. He’d be playing 1st time on the Raiders

[ALLRAIDERWORLD21]

Texans also had their 1st string Oline in on that 1st drive. Did you think they were going to have 2nd string protecting Stroud?

[FlyBono24]

Special teams is trash too. Nice penalty idiots

[powski]

Historically theres almost ZERO correlation between how a team does in pre-season vs regular season.

They still look bad. This is going to be a rough year regardless but hopefully we see improvement over the 17 real games.

[Xramfan]

f[raiders_icon]cking defense is useless trash as usual
Every f[raiders_icon]cking year with this bullshit
