I am not confident with a 20 point lead in the 4th quarter, however, based on the past 2 games. I recommend that we ground and pound it with Hubbard. Work the clock and get a FG here--at least

Hubbard is a stud.

They are trying to throw away from Horn and put their best WR on Jackson--but MJ is having none of it.

can't believe I am saying this, but the Saints and Bucs lost today and the Falcons play KC...

Imagine when we get Brooks and Legette's light comes on....The defense has played well without Brown, but the Raiders have the 32nd ranked running attack in the NFL--still, our DE/DTs are banged up, and we are playing well

These refs have been good--the Panthers never get calls.

The MAIN thing to me is this: Tremble and Sanders could be our 1-2 TE combo--Tremble has played a great game and Sanders has been surprisingly strong in blocking--he whiffed on one, but the other blocks have been solid. Mike Jackson--me likey. Hee hee. Wallace has been playing more and looks good for a rookie in game 3. The OL has been strong. Legette is going to be fine. Need pass rush. What about Peevy? A gem.

I told y'all. Not really--I just hate people who say that when they said nearly every possible scenario--

Hekker has an arm out of the extended shotgun. Secret Weapon

We will see with Andy if the offense is ready for a rookie QB.

Andy has been watching the guy ahead of him suck for over a season knowing that he could do better. He is fresh, excited, and he has something to prove. Even for Andy, the 300+, 2 TD game he had last year was an outlier. We threw the ball about 50 times that game. So expect a 200-225 yard day. That will be Awesome.

The Raiders have a bad running game--we have the worst pass rush in the league (or close to it). Are we going to let a a journeyman backup QB beat us? Are they?

which is what they should have done before drafting a QB. The QB is the final piece. They put a 5'9" 180 lb QB behind the worst OL in the NFL with nothing beyond Thielen at WR-and no help at TE. What did they expect?

wonder what Bryce would be worth as a comp pick. Not sure how that works, but if he'd be worth a 3rd or 4th, considering the cap room we expect next year, maybe that would be the play instead of a trade--however, if you are looking at saving cap room, then probably disregard.

He is a solid NFL backup QB and that will be an upgrade. We will not feel as if the game is out of reach 23.4 seconds after the opening kickoff--

This is why you shop him now and get someone else in asap. I don't think (guessing--not sure) that you want to or can trade someone on IR---the other option.

Tepper, as a fan like us, knows when to abort the mission, he simply needs to stay out of expressing his opinion concerning talent evaluation. It will be Morgan's decision now. I hope he learned from Fitterer--and does not make the same mistakes

think about it--Johnson is in a contract year. Mingo is worried that he is on the TMJ train to early Lowe's employment, and the OL are all in their primes. They want rings and paychecks--not interested in child therapy for abused and traumatized QBs. He was holding people back and costing them money. Nothing is more frustrating than being wide open and seeing your QB throwing it too late or out of bounds. I was hopeful. Hope gone.

I will say this about Young--if you draft him and you have crappy offensive linemen and crappy WRs, you sit him in 2023 and you let Dalton play. You then build the OL in the offseason and bring in WRs--like we did--THEN you put your 5'9" QB under center, after a year of learning and watching. ' Young was a victim of the turmoil and chaos caused by Tepper. Yes, the pick was bad, but so was the timing.

They call it a rumor in the headlines, but I was careful to frame it as weak or speculative. The headline does not call it a suggestion, but that is what it seems to be. I guess rumors are repeated suggestions or opinions with a supported premise based on facts, data, or logic. Former Steelers Controversial WR Involved in Trade Rumors

We also saved the salary so we could sign a stud RG and WR--about the same money.

Brees was an Alpha--a "dawg" who had swag. Young doesn't seem to have that gene.

When we signed Lewis and Hunt and moved Corbett to G, that was based on the Brees/Payton model.

I think he has read some articles about him being the victim. From some perspectives, he has a point. What did he do in the offseason? How much film did he watch, weights did he lift? balls did he throw? Did he go full Jerry Rice or was he more like Jamarcus Russell?
