Because of all the interest in this thread, I've place all of the video content of Patrick Mahomes II's college career, and draft day goodness into a single post that can be found here. Enjoy! [Reply]

We’re talking about the Raiders here, bud. An entire generation of kids have been born, graduated high school and joined the workforce since the last time they got smashed in the Super Bowl. [Reply]

There are 40 year old Raider fans who weren't alive yet when their team won a Super Bowl [Reply]

While it certainly was nice to go back-to-back and win a SB on the Raiders' home field, by far the most glorious will be the SB win this season that seals the threepeat and takes us to a level no other team in the SB era has achieved. Imo.
Until some team duplicates that feat, we'll have a strong claim to the being the best team in the SB era. [Reply]

Oh no doubts. I was just thinking of the ones we already won. [Reply]

Not really. He's getting $265M from 2023 to 2027, or $53M per year. The graphic you posted does not include the "cheap" remaining money from rookie deals or old contracts for a lot of these guys. Here is what the real list looks like in terms of cash flow right now:
Mahomes - $53M per year ($265M for 5 years)
Lamar - $52M per year ($260M for 5 years)
Goff - $48.1M per year ($240.6M for 5 years)
Tua - $47.1M per year ($235.6M for 5 years)
Burrow - $44.3M per year ($310M for 7 years)
Lawrence - $43.8M per year ($306.6M for 7 years)
Hurts - $43.2M per year ($259.3M for 6 years)
Herbert - $42.3M per year ($296.25M for 7 years)
Allen - $35.57M per year ($284.55M for 8 years)
I would think Josh Allen is gonna demand a raise pretty soon, like Mahomes did last year. He can easily point to these other contracts and say that he's a more valuable player than some of these other dudes. [Reply]
why even address it? It's just division trash talk. The address was probably something like "look we don't need to give that guy any extra motivation!"
I also thought it was pretty funny seeing Keenan Allen in Chargers camp doing the "lets ride" shit [Reply]

Mahones does take notes. You saw that in quarterbacks. Reminded us all it’s similar to the last dance and how Jordan used disrespect to motivate himself. Maybe it’s a trait all the greats have? [Reply]
We’re talking about the Raiders here, bud. An entire generation of kids have been born, dropped out of high school and robbed liquor stores to pay the bills since the last time they have won anything.
You had a Golden Opportunity, and missed, so I fixed your post. [Reply]

You can mock Russ because he's a weak cringelord doofus who won't fight back [Reply]
