Game Day thread: the mighty Josh Allen rolls the dice in Las Vegas
Which is the most likely outcome?
The Raiders revert to last year and lose by 20.
We battle them in a close game but don’t have enough talent on offense to win.
In a pleasant surprise we pull out a win with a decent running game that helps Cousins complete some downfield passes.
The Bills are 5.5 point favorites and the O/U is 53,5 Hemingway and Zuhn look to be out. I saw one thing that says Bowers is doubtful with a knee but the official NFL report says Full Participation in the last practice
I just want to see progress and smart football, like no head butting the opponent. Will N. Dean be the spy on Allen?

I don't mind taking the 3 to be honest, so the flag doesn't bother me. No guarantee we score even if we do convert. Love the aggression in general, but our defense has held them to 3 twice. This is a chance for our defense to ball out.

Jesus guys, enough with the jerking off to mendoza already ok?!
He will eventually get into the Raiders line up. But it won't be now and maybe not till end of year or next year

It’s not jerking off…it’s a legitimate play to get his big ass in on qb sneaks..ELCAraiderfan wrote: Sun Oct 18, 2026 2:27 pm Jesus guys, enough with the jerking off to mendoza already ok?!

We are just stating using his big body for the 1 yard tush push plays, not run the whole game.ELCAraiderfan wrote: Sun Oct 18, 2026 2:27 pm Jesus guys, enough with the jerking off to mendoza already ok?!

Except Hayward gets the 1st down. It’s Lindebaum that keeps screwing it up

It's not just that one dude, its the constant wanting mendoza to play. It will happen when it happens. and if it were to happen this very minute some think just him being in there will take the Raiders to the SB.HesterLayes wrote: Sun Oct 18, 2026 2:28 pm It’s not jerking off…it’s a legitimate play to get his big ass in on qb sneaks..

Hitting the bottle early I see? Lol, seriously chill. I was making a point to bring him in for just the tush push, not to f[raiders_icon]cking bench Cousins.ELCAraiderfan wrote: Sun Oct 18, 2026 2:27 pm Jesus guys, enough with the jerking off to mendoza already ok?!
