Has there ever been a season where so many bad teams played each other? Based on record, 5 of the 6 worst teams this year are Miami, NYJets, NYGiants, Washington and Cincinnati. Because the AFC East plays the NFC East and the AFC North, that means there are 10 games amongst these 5 teams. As of now they have played each other 3 times with a record of 3-3. In games not amongst themselves, they are 2-34 with the only wins being the Giants against TB (who is 2-6 and missed two extra points and a 34 yard FG that would have won the game), and the Jets against the Cowboys.

So we can look forward to 7 more games of teams possibly trying more to lose than win.

Meanwhile, Gruden is finding more success this year in lining up the team in an I formation and pounding Jacobs behind FB Alec Ingold. 

People laughed at his "old school" comment -- but as far as the Raiders are concerned this year vs years' past, no-trick old school approach is working for them.

Has there ever been a more clueless group of NFL head coaches?

Game is on the line, you got one play left and Golladay and Jones are standing on the sidelines.

You got 3rd and 3 and your best RB is standing on the sidelines because the HC thinks he's being tricky with the backup RB in.

The so-called great young minds are all floundering. Gase, Nagy, Taylor, Kingsbury. Kitchens has shown that he's not HC material. Matt Patricia thinks he's Belicheck and he's not. Even McVay has lost his mind. LaFleur just laid a complete egg on the road with a HOF QB.

It's a weekly occurrence of 'lets be tricky and think our trickery will fool an NFL defense'.

I will say most of these team have below par and/or putrid OL but as the HC, your staff should recognize that and design plays that can work, not send your receivers 20 yards downfield-Kitchens. The RB should always be available as an outlet, especially with a sub par OL.

And for the love of gawd, quit substituting in inferior players because you think you are fooling someone.
