Not as hungry as DB's eating Geno's INTs.

Wait, are we still doing optimism?

We've done it for 25 years, why stop now?

Sorry, I thought we had shifted to optimism for getting the #1 pick in 2026.
I guess we're not quite there yet. I'll update my calendar and, please remember to "Reply All" when the official shift begins.

Its all about draft position now

Don’t excuse the front office for the debacle. Maybe Brady ain’t the savior.

Didn’t watch a minute of it other “highlights” on redzone.
Let’s talk draft baby!! Who watches collage football?
Just realized I went out in public wearing my raider shirt.

At my kids football games.... that score is depressing

What’s a level down from “official sh1t”.
Certainly a sh1t show.
Maybe a world full of sh1t.
Either way, this sucks…yet again.
This aged like milk.

I would like to petition FBGs for turning off the language filter just for this thread.
Think JB would go for that?

I am not sure what would be more classically Raiders:
1) Lose to the inept, winless Titans at home
2) Beat the Titans killing their chance to get the #1 pick
Of course it just occurred to me what will actually happen is they
3) They lose to the Titans at home then they both go winless the rest of the way only for the Raiders to win a meaningless week 18 matchup against the Chiefs who will be resting starters for the playoffs. Moving them from the #1 pick all the way to #6 (Titans, Bengals, Saints, Browns, Jets).

Welcome to the last 2+ decades of being a Raiders fan, Pete.

And who has been the owner during that period.

"Another part can be blamed on a set of skill position players that badly needs a healthy Brock Bowers at tight end. He's battling a **PCL injury and bone bruise** that could linger for much of the season."
First time I am hearing details about Brock's knee injury.

Okay, now explain to me how this is Mark Davis's fault. If the only answer is "well, he hired them" then save it.And who has been the owner during that period.
Everyone prefers an owner who hires football people, opens the purse strings and then gets out of the way. That's Mark Davis and that's what he did with Pete Carroll and Tom Brady and Chip Kelly and whatever the hell the gm's name is.

all powerful AI reports he has become a pass coverage liability recently while remaining an asset in run D.

That should fix things.

Per a ESPN write up on the release:
Pratt stood out from the rest of the linebackers because of his effectiveness in coverage. In 105 coverage snaps, he allowed 74 yards and a passer rating of 70.7 on 13 targets as the nearest defender. White, meanwhile, has given up 11 catches for 107 yards and a passer rating of 82.2 on 17 targets in 149 coverage snaps.

Exactly. He's not the one running the draft or coaching the players. He's spent big on free agents, it's not his fault they missed on them.Okay, now explain to me how this is Mark Davis's fault. If the only answer is "well, he hired them" then save it.And who has been the owner during that period.

We gotta be careful. My closet has too much silver and black in it. That being said it's a good year for top-10 Offensive Tackles. On to April 2026!Didn’t watch a minute of it other “highlights” on redzone.

Interesting Carroll and Brady both preferred Geno over Darnold, esp. when factor in the age difference. Maybe Geno can turn around, and Bowers being out and possibly worst OL in the league isn't helping, but at this point this decision looks like a massive miss.
WVU Alum

Even in college, Geno needs a clean pocket. Given time, he is a surgeon. Any pressure, and he panics. Sam Darnold may have turned a corner, but given that he was only successful for most of one season, I preferred Geno. I still do, but he needs a good line to succeed.
Chaka
Footballguy
Of course but, if they have a shot at a franchise QB they have to take that chance and backfill the OL in free agency.
They also need to fire Nepo Baby Carroll which, would be an immediate improvement.
SDJohnny
Footballguy
Just depends where they finish and if theres a guy there. They might mess up and win a game or two at the end of the year.
Chaka
Footballguy
They'll definitely do that.
