The Raiders could of had ammo to trade up if they traded Maxx. But we needed to trade him last offseason and we missed the boat. Missed the boat on value at least. Bc now he's a year older and teams will know we're desperate. Pete has held the team hostage in more ways than one and yet i still see some that actually want to keep this bum around.

Ditto...I had the same opinion last year, and got a lot of flack about it. Realistically, Maxx serves no practical purpose on a Raiders team this bad and as much value as he has now, he was worth even more last year.

I hate this argument. If I'm the owner, you are 100% getting fired if you win me away from drafting a Franchise QB that will fill the stands.

Unfortunately I think the Raiders are going to win this one. Pete is coaching for pride and the Giants are terrible.

I have no idea what will happen. I have not watched even a game the Giants have played. I did watch the Chiefs game, mostly to gauge Minshew but now that he is out, his backup proved how much value Mahomes brought to the table. It was an embarrassing loss. You could not even blame it on weather because it was perfect football weather yesterday. They are a mess.

While I'm obviously hoping that we lose our final 2 games, the #1 pick is not a lock either way. And though Mendoza is the favorite, the #2 rated QB could turn out to be just as good or even better.

If we pick either 1st or 2nd, I like our position. If not Mendoza, Moore is fine with me.

Honestly, I'm not even sure they win that game with Mahomes, esp with no Rice. The whole team checked out once they were eliminated from the playoffs.

Dunno, Reid is too good a coach to let the team fold on him, but that was about as bad a game of football on both sides of the ball that I can remember a Chiefs team playing. And I sat through the Blackledge/Kenney years.

Reid has seemed "off" all season. I am wondering if he comes back next year.

Seems like a repeat of the Jags and Saints games from last year is about to happen but even 1 week closer to that top pick. Brutal if history repeats itself.

Not even just Reid but Mahomes too the last couple years. No way do I want to hear that guy's name mentioned in the GOAT conversation again.

Start Kenny Pickett and promote Cam Miller for this weeks game. Start Miller for the final.

I have a horrible feeling we’re gonna F this up

KC receivers have been dropping a lot of passes last couple of years.

If we lose the next 2 we absolutely will be the number 1 pick. It’s a lock.

I think he's saying that whoever we pick at 1 won't be a lock. And he's right. I'm still taking the chance 10 out of 10 times on Mendoza though.
