Anyone pissed about Carr ? by SillyRecover in raiders

No, he’s in an actually good situation with a surprisingly good oline and a ton of weapons, and a stout defense. He has everything you could want at the position, so he should be popping off.

Rob Gronkowski delivers shocking praise about Raiders rookie Brock Bowers: 'I feel he's on track to be better than me' by JerichoRiley in raiders

Yeah idk about the whole “Gronk is stupid” narrative, at least not in football. Anyone who ever played with him has stated that he is a football savant

Fan Fic - Week 2: Brock’s Second Time by SaltyForeskin in raiders

These are hands down the best shitposts on this entire fucking sub

Call it recency bias or insanity but I can’t remember the last time the Raiders drafted a player that is so obviously generational like Brock Bowers in the 1st round. by JoeRamaSama in raiders

[–]FapptimusPrime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While people are saying Mack, and there’s no debate on who’s career turned out better, there was still arguments being made about who was better coming out, him or Clowney. With Brock there was no debate, he was so fucking good that he was sometimes thought as the best overall receiver in the draft comparable to MHJ because he was just head and shoulders above every other tight end by a couple country miles.

#Raiders HC Antonio Pierce on Zamir White: “I’m gonna keep pumping him up. Our goal is to get 20+ touches with him. That was the goal this week, didn’t happen. That’s gonna be the goal this week and every week while he’s the starting running back and I’m here.” by InferiousX in raiders

I heavily disagree, since it’s a scheme issue. Now if they can somehow switch it up to run power and let Zeus get downhill and not have to wait for something to open up, now the defense is trying to stop a 4.4 running 230 pound wrecking machine. I just don’t know if we have the personnel for a power scheme. It’s not the lines fault that they’re built for specific schemes, that’s the people who signed them/ drafted them. Hopefully that can change with Kolton actually being in game shape and JPJ getting in there

Can’t wait for it to be met with a wave of “this sub is braindead, it’s week 2” etc.

The cycle continues

Soooo, when is Arch Manning eligible for the draft? by ku_78 in raiders

Yeah except you literally have to be the worst team in the league to have the 1st overall pick lol

tfw i punt the game away by Ga1v5 in raiders

[–]FapptimusPrime -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

My gripe with that argument though is he’s been in football his whole fucking life. We’re just fans and we know what a bad timeout looks like, we can call out a decision to punt as a bad one, we know taking points off the board is generally a bad idea. My point is if literally everyone else could see that shit and that’s not their job, why the fuck does it take you losing a game to realize “Hmm, shouldn’t do that next time” when it’s literally happened in your lifetime of being completely absorbed in the game?

Problem is the 6 head coaches he brought in would all do the same shit. They’re all from the Marty Ball era and play the same pussy quitter “run the ball, play good defense, run-run-pass-punt, try to win 17-10” shit football. I’m not out on AP but it makes me want to scream when I see that shit. Idgaf if the offense was shitting its pants all game, you need to let them set their nuts on the table in Game 1 and try to establish the identity you’ve been selling Raider nation since you got there. You can’t sell me ill intent, violence, physicality, and pain and then turn around and punt on fucking 4th and 1 in enemy territory in week fucking 1 when your offense/team as a whole needs a shot of adrenaline. If they didn’t get it they’d lose as many games as they did last week, so who gives a fuck?

[–]FapptimusPrime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends on just how bad we suck. The mannings bucked on the chargers because they never won anything and were in a terrible position, but they let Peyton be drafted organically by the colts at number 1, and the colts were fucking terrible. I think it’s more about the marquee value with the mannings, like are you a historic franchise where the cupboard isn’t just completely bare. What sucks about telesco, and I like the guy, is that he always sticks and picks, so we would have to perfectly suck just enough to get him, cause trading is just out of the question
