I give up on understanding football.
The trade deadline has passed. Anyone on the team now is there till the offseason unless they are released. Tanking is a thing for fans to talk about, but not too many teams actively do this until they are mathematically eliminated. I'm hoping the team fights hard the rest of the way, but tough to expect too much after this start.
I think there is a general misconception about tanking. Coaches don't tank, players don't tank. Their careers are too short and volatile to risk it. f
Players on teams aren't going to say "you know, I hope they get higher draft picks to come take my job and then my poor play on tape makes it harder to get another job or paid well"
I know the trade deadline has passed. LV missed an opportunity to trade away some older players to start accumulating draft picks to rebuild. It’s a missed opportunity for a team that excels at missing opportunities. Hopefully some forward thinking occurs in the offseason and LV makes rebuilding moves then.
White is the type of player that should receive a fair amount of playing time. It’s time to see what he looks like in the NFL. I have a feeling I know what the plans are for Jacobs but it may be helpful to make that decision if White can be a NFL RB.

Dude... I am already depressed
LOL Za'Darius just came up organically in my mind and I ended up down a small rabbit hole.
Sucks.
Actually, it is the Road to Canton special.... one sequence had Willie Brown and then John Madden right after talking about Ray Guy. Brought a tear to my eye.
get him a set of pompoms and make sure he attends every game whether he plays or not.
Should have made the trade. The Raiders have to start looking ahead to next season and the seasons after.
No reason to not think it was talked about. The missing part here is what was being offered for him. I am not ready to trade him for peanuts even with the year being so far a disaster.
I just focus on the ya sin portion of the trade.
No lead is safe for the Raiders.
correct
I'm having trouble thinking of another team that could.make this claim.
it's not closeI'm having trouble thinking of another team that could.make this claim.
Broncos probably still have the lead but it's close.
Packers too.
Can't even be the best at underachieving.
It’s about time someone joins my thinking. We will have more folks join the rebuild team as the weeks roll on.
I haven’t watched much college football this year other than PAC-12. So is it “suck for Stroud” ? Or someone else?
This team has way bigger issues than Derek Carr. But I do think it’s time for a change at the QB position. I think it would be in the best interest for Carr to move on, just as much as the Raiders. He deserves to play for a winning organization at some point in his career before he retires.
Pretty much
