It's pretty safe to say that Lynch wasn't going to make or break our season either way.

You're acting like by signing him, we're somehow a shittier team all of the sudden.

I know you hate us and all but try not to sound like you know nothing about football. Sorry that your lovely garbage team is a dumpster fire and left your city.

Why are you so mad

Not mad at all. Just pointing out that you sound like a moron for congratulating the rest of the division because we signed Lynch as if that's a move that makes the team poo poo or something. I guess it's because the team is using cap space that they weren't using anyway or something?

and I don't give a gently caress where the team plays as long as it's the Raiders. I live in tropical Ohio. I mean yeah it sucks for fans in Oakland. I feel bad for them and it obviously would've been better if Davis had found a way to keep the team there w/o losing majority ownership in the team but the NFL as a whole is a piece of poo poo to taxpayers.

Yeah, at the very least we got a ridiculously magical season last year. So many games came down to the last moment, it was unreal and a very fun ride to be on while it lasted. If we continue to be garbage this year then hopefully the coaching staff gets gutted and we try again next year. I truly believe that the actual talent to make a solid run is already on the team. I just think the coaching is dogshit.

It's nice that we got a W and have a legit chance to maybe win the division since KC is making GBS threads themselves. Not worried about San Diego cuz lol. With that said, I'm still not very hopeful. If Denver had another drive we probably would've been hosed.

It's hosed up because we're stuck in a situation where maybe we could make a run for the division but even if we made it, we'd still get crushed in the playoffs because we have too many holes and/or we're bipolar as gently caress. Even a 1 and done in the playoffs is an improvement considering the previous 14 years but it would probably ensure that no other coaching changes would be made. It's hosed up where you almost wish to lose more so poo poo can be fixed for the future.

Anyway, gently caress Denver forever, Elway eat all the dicks and Talib is bitchmade

You had a 12-4 team last year only because the offense was pretty good but had a garbage rear end defense

There's a good chance it all fails spectacularly but after watching the press conference...it just feels good. Yeah he's getting a dumptruck full of money but I believed him when he said he never wanted to leave and talked about how much he loves the city, franchise, fans and all things Raiders.

Davis didn't have his city trying to work with him in any meaningful capacity. Your owner is literally a mustache twirling piece of poo poo.

In no way am I defending the NFL holding cities for ransom over free stadiums for billionaires. All cities should tell them to gently caress off. Just saying that Davis was in a bad situation with a stadium that had literal rivers of poo poo flowing around and he didn't have the means to build himself a replacement without giving up the team.

Payne is a stud, too.

I guess my top 5 needs for the Raiders are:

1. Interior D-lineman. Someone who can push the pocket.
2. CB. Raiders are likely losing their top 3 CBs. I expect an FA signing and a high pick rookie. 1st/2nd round.
3. OT. Penn has been a pro bowler for us but is getting old. Time to groom his replacement
4. LB. This could move up if Bowman doesn't re-sign. We have some young guys that shined at times but got injured. I'd like to see what a good coach can do with Cory James, Marquel Lee and Morrow.
5. RB. Oakland needs a heavy load RB for when Lynch retires, which could be now or next year for sure.

I have no problem if say, a Minkah Fitzpatrick or Soquan Barkley falls and the Raiders grab one of these guys instead. I'm firmly in the draft talent over need if a stud falls.

Isn't Sharpe supposed to be hopefully/maybe taking over for Penn eventually? I can't remember how he did when he got a bunch of snaps at the end of the year. I don't remember anything horrible so it couldn't have been that bad.

So I guess Crabtree is gone? Why?

Black Sunshine
Apr 4, 2004

LEFT 4 DEAD IS A LOT LIKE FOOTBALL - I JERK OFF TO BOTH
Having watched pretty much every game the last few seasons, I want Crabtree to stay. I don't care about perceived attitude issues or whatever. Bottom line is that he's made more clutch catches for this team than anyone over the last 3 years. He definitely has a rapport with Carr and is his most trusted receiver. That counts for something.

Who else is there if he's gone? Cooper is even more unreliable than Crabs, Roberts fell off a cliff, Patterson is great in small doses and Holton has hands of stone. Seriously who in the hell is there to carry the receiving core when Cooper disappears? I love having Cooper and Crabs because when one is taken out of the game, the other tends to elevate his own game. Last year was bullshit on so many levels. How can you use it to really judge a guy who led the team in TD's?

We need a 3rd decent WR to help open things up and we're set I think. I'm pretty sure a lot of us thought that Roberts would improve his game and go to the next level but obviously it didn't happen. If free agency fails then I guess spend a pick on a WR since even if Crabs stays, it won't be for long and you need a new guy.

And to say that hundreds of guys could do what Crabtree does but cheaper is just utter insanity. If that were true, give me 5 of those guys in a run n shoot and I'll win every Super Bowl until the end of time

Play posted:

Hey man the Raiders had the highest dropped pass totals in the league and Crabtree was a big part of that. Not to mention he's kind of slow and usually not very good after the catch. As the number one receiver on a team he underperforms, and despite people telling me I'm wrong I haven't heard anything that goes against that besides one video a dude put up of Crabs catching that last pass on the bizarre ending to the Chiefs Raiders game.

Maybe I hyperbolized a bit much and probably blamed him more than is fair for a totally poo poo receiving corps but with him as the primary receiver I don't think the Raiders are going to go very far. I'm not the only one thinking that too, the old coaching staff looked poised to get rid of him before they were gotten rid of.

Cooper is supposed to be the #1 and Crabs is the possession receiver so stop citing "not fast as gently caress" as a negative. Also you forget that the "totally poo poo receiving core" balled the gently caress out 2 years ago.

Also, lol Chiefs
