I think Freddie, in his newfound wisdom, might actually be thinking logically. We did a lot of preseason analysis based on what we gained and lost. That on top of a 3-game skid, the kneeling, the possibility that the OL intentionally laid down to get Carr hurt, the fact that hat Carr has already missed a game and a half to injury...

Anyone thinking logically would have to admit the odds of us making the playoffs are pretty fucking long, and the thought of the SB isn’t even funny anymore.

So it doesn’t surprise me. I think Pirate is close to throwing in the towel too.

But wait a minute don't we have the executive of the year sitting upstairs using his infinite wisdom to build a champion and Jack telling us 2 years ago that there will be some defense played in Oakland. These motherfuckers lie more than the media and politicians do. Just another apparently terrible chapter of Raider football the last 15 years

Oh hell ya we have the executive of the year. We fans who slam him just don’t know what we’re taking about. I mean, the press says he’s the best so what the fuck are we thinking??

STILL, every time you read an article about Reggie they STILL talk about the “bind” Al left him in. All that cap hell blah blah blah.... nobody could have done better with all the adversity blah blah blah blahbitty -blah.

People have the fuckin nerve to argue w Raiders fans about McKenzie, as if their casual observances have revealed a much more accurate picture than our analysis of every fucking move he has ever made.

He’s a fucking loser. He hires loser coaches, he signs loser players and even when he does something right it all turns to shot eventually.

People think that 12-4 record last year was an accurate representation of how good our team is. Fucking BULLSHIT!!

People say 5e only thing that matters are the W/L columns. Absolutely not true. HOW a team wins is much more indicative of what they really are. And last year we could just as easily have been 7-9 if it wasn’t for an unbelievable amount of luck. I know, we’ve beaten this dead horse a lot but man, the picture the press paints of Reggie is SO far from the truth it’s really kind of astonishing if you think about it.

I hate being wrong. I had no idea we’d be THIS bad. Right now my 9-7 prediction looks like a pipe dream.

I think the only optimism going into next year if Pagano is retained what he can do with this defense with a full training camp, preseason and full season of games and hopefully added talent on defense. I think two huge issues all year was Norton jr for ten games and Downing for the whole season and their utter incompetence to run their squads effectively.

I agree, Freddie. This season was lost as soon as the kneeling bullshit happened... the team never recovered from it.

We have to have a successful draft.... meaning a "smart" draft. We all know how unlikely that is, unfortunately. FA will be interesting also; I wonder who Reggie will low ball next year that could help us...lol. With Downing and Norton gone, some players in the right places, Carr healed 100% (physically and mentally) and hopefully Jack getting a clue that another season like this won't be tolerated, we can be in the hunt at the end of the season.

I really thought they could go 11-5. Too bad a bunch of butt hurt players had Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) all year.
