[quote=LayneStaley post_id=1287446]Carroll is gonna do what Gruden tried to do his first year here. He’s gonna turnover the loser mentality I honestly think a lot of our team probably has, would be hard not to with all the losing and coaching turnover. Pete really is a culture builder and living in Seattle for the past 20 years and seeing what he did for this fanbase I’m pretty excited for our turnaround. I know Ben Johnson was the sexy name but I think Pete was the right coach at the right time to finally get us back to winning. Maybe it takes a couple offseasons but just the entire image and feeling around the Raiders is already changing imo.[/quote]Gruden really worked hard to eliminate the "victim" mentality that began to creep into the Raiders culture in the early 1990's.

I don't need a Super Bowl.......I just want to see this team man up against the teams in our Division.
When I witness that, the rest will fall into place.

As it stands today we are 509-480-11, which is pretty freakin amazing considering the last twenty seasons.
I witnessed what I believe was the only "perfect game" in Super Bowl history when the Raiders won Super Bowl XVIII. I am one of the lucky ones.

They deserve a winner for a change.
I feel good that they will soon witness it themselves.

The sad thing is that some "younger" fans that never celebrated a Raiders Superbowl are in their 40's
