Chargers has some real talent, but their financial constraints really limit them. If they are serious about winning they go get Sean Peyton and tell him to blow up and rebuild the entire organization. That's basically what Clark did with Reid. I mean Andy brought so many people with him to KC. From turf to equipment. And the Chargers really need new trainers and medical staff. I mean what an embarrassment, [Reply]

Two, if my memory serves me correctly.
We lost to a team whose QB completed a grand total of two fucking passes that game. Wether or not we as a fan base deserve Mahomes is at times a subject of debate but, what isn’t debatable is that we sure as fuck earned him. [Reply]

He’s absolutely terrible. And the Raiders can’t get rid of him.
Broncos are stuck with Russ and the Raiders are stuck with McDaniels. Beautiful
I don’t see how Davis can keep him. McDaniels should have been fired this morning. Appoint an interim from the current staff at least. [Reply]

Raiders have no choice but to move on from him at this point. They should have traded him after 2016 while his stock was high
But they just signed his best friend, Adams, to a massive long term contract. Adams main reason to sign was to reconnect with Carr. I don't think that would go over well at all. The Raiders are pretty much stuck with Carr. :-) [Reply]

Maybe but if you listen to Adams carefully, he talks more of growing up a Raiders fan more than he talks of Derek. Professional athletes understand that friends come and go to different teams.
Carrs contract was extended last year that gave this administration an out this year if they want to cut ties without taking too much of a cap hit. They take a small cap hit cutting him after this season vs having to pay him next year close to $40 million. I believe it was a tryout year for Carr and he is failing. The only scenario I see Carr staying is if that creepy looking Davis over rides Ziegler and insists they keep Carr around. [Reply]
He gets coach of the year for being the first to move on from Carr.
If the Raiders aren't looking much better by seasons end next year, likely time to move on again. This next draft will define Josh and Ziegler. [Reply]

if I had any faith in Mark I hope he lights some fires under some asses to start building a good team. He says he's ashamed of our stadium being red two weeks in a row, well time to fucking do something about it.
the stadium may always have a sizable share of visiting fans, but putting a good Raiders product on the field will go a long way to have just as much black in the stands. The Raiders fans are out there, we still take over LA and show up to just about every other road game from Carolina to Seattle. [Reply]
Just read that KC has scored >28 points against the Raiders in 10 straight games. That's tied for the longest such streak between any two teams in league history. And when I say league, I mean it applies to any match up at any time since the founding of the NFL.
I mentioned that it's tied. When did it last happen? The Rams did it 10 straight times against the Packers between 1949 and 1953. Put another way, it's been > 70 years since the NFL has seen such one-sided domination.
The Chiefs have scored 28+ points in 10 straight games vs the Raiders, tied for the longest streak in any matchup all-time.
The Rams did this in 10 straight vs the Packers from 1949-53. (h/t @EliasSports)
