  2. QB Jimmy Garropolo - who has struggled with injuries - has been benched!!

     

    QB Aidan O'Connell will assume the role of QB1 for the remainder of the 2023 season.  The Raiders want to do their due diligence in determining exactly what they have in O'Connell for the 2024 season.

  3. OMG!!

     

    We just hired a new offensive coaching staff!!

     

    Our NEW franchise QB is out for the season!!

     

    If you can't see the forest for the trees - you aren't looking hard enough.

  4. Let's not "pile on" Chris Ballard!!

     

    Honestly - the NFL Draft is nothing but "a big ole' crap shoot"!!

     

    You find players like QB Tom Brady in the 6th round.

     

    You find busts like QB JaMarcus Russell & QB Ryan Leaf drafted in the top of the first round.

     

    You have players like QB Baker Mayfield who is on his FOURTH TEAM since being drafted in the first round.

     

    You find *S who will trade first round picks for RB Trent Richardson - AND - draft DL Bjorn Werner in the first round.

     

    Yep - it's a "crap shoot" FOR SURE!!

     

    And NO ONE is at fault - because the ONLY resume a player has is as a COLLEGIATE player.  Not everyone can transition to the NFL and be as successful as they were in college.

     

    This conjures up images of QB Tim Tebow - GREAT collegian - below average NFL QB!!

  5. One wonders "IF" Bill Belichick - and - his "sinking Patriots ship" reach out to Josh McDaniels to return to Foxboro??

     

    That's the ONLY way that Mark Davis will get out of paying a second way-too-long head coaching contract!!

     

    I think Josh McDaniels is done with "head coaching chances".

     

    He cost the GM - and - his offensive coordinator their jobs too.

     

    Me thinks that he won't be on an NFL coaching staff for quite a while.

    He's got a few games left to prove what he's got, but if he continues with this level of production then it's gonna be hard to justify keeping him on the team for how big his cap hit is currently. I will say he's been more involved the last two weeks, which is nice to see.

    I concur.

     

    You really don't think that the front office would keep a player who isn't up to par after a full season - do you?

     

    I'm just surprised that everyone wants to "cut bait" with more than half the season left.

    You just provided more support for why he should be cut if he shows no improvement this year. What do you mean fans aren't paying his contract? Indirectly we are.  Through ticket sales, TV deals, merch sales.  Without fans pumping in the money, the owners and the players wouldn't make a dime ....So you're incredibly incorrect that the fans don't have a say when they're literally the fuel that keeps the fire burning.  

    We indirectly provide the $$$ - but - fans have NO SAY in whether a team keeps or releases a player.
