Raiders Go To Texas Tonight, The Game Day Thread

Post by 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.

At least that wasn’t a flat out drop. He has to learn in the nfl to secure it better. These DBs are always swatting.

That last was a good defensive chop but hes got to secure it. I believe Jerry Rice led the league in drops his rookie year. Don't give up on him quite yet.

What a waste of time, garbage half on both sides. No improvement anywhere from last week.

f[raiders_icon]ck this shit, going to the gym. #15 is done for the night, the defense is f[raiders_icon]cking garbage, and I don't care to see O'Connell tossing INTs and getting sacked 12 times

Mendoza likely has at least a TD if not for drops.

Is Maxx worse than you thought tonight?
Is Linderbaum worse than you thought after tonight?
Did Bowers seem a lot worse tonight than you expected?
Is Jeanty trending down after tonight?

JESUS F'ING CHRIST.

Think they’ll trot Fernando out in the second?

Not going to lie, not as excited for this year as I thought I would be. Mendoza will sit the entire year, Kirk Cousins is garbage, Jeanty will get 1500+ all-purpose in a wasted year, and Bowers is one year closer to going to another team. Also not going to be fun watching every RB1 on the other team average 5 ypc against us.

As expected, lots of over reactions from playing guys who we need to see in action to determine who makes the 53

True. So many rooks, udfas, 2nd year guys with little experience. Including terrible vets like Meredith at Center. Its going to take time, growth and weeding out to get to a good place.

I love jeanty and Brock and am excited…but also part of me hates beating them up for a year or two until we are hopefully good
