NYRaider Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 3 hours ago, big_palooka said: Yes. I think Gruden will scheme him. But fact remains, he's volatile. He is all about the AB brand and eventually, he will erupt. You can't contain who he is for very long. First signs of something not going his way, he will erupt. Look at how he ended his tenure in Pittsburgh, a storied franchise with a players coach and HOF QB. Why would he be a model citizen in Oakland? They averaged 12 wins per year during his time there, huge distraction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OG_C2X Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 I was having a discussion earlier about AB. Prior to 2018 when was he a diva and a distraction? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billking Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 Loved it when Seymour knocked Ben on his *** even though it was a dumb move on the field a lot of people felt he deserved that and more for his off field behaviour. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think he was. Rift with Ben started in 2017 I believe. Social Media has gone to his head. His personality seems to have really flipped over the last 18 months. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chali21 Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 I think Carr being his QB will keep him happy because he’s not going to throw him under the bus. If anyone throws him under the bus I’d be Gruden. Lol honestly i don’t think AB will be here past his contract. If the raiders are smart they’ll draft a replacement and soon. In the meantime I’ll take his 100 catches 1400 yards and 12 TDS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Humble_Beast Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 It would be nice if we had a Raider Hall of Fame. In the new stadium have old Raider greats jersey and name hung up on the rafters or something. or like a fan building like the Grand Canyon where it shows the history of the organization and a little exhibit showing the greats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Name plates around the building, banners from the rafters, whatever. Now that we have our own home we should be able to do cool stuff like that. 58 minutes ago, OG_C2X said: reported. what in the hell does this have to do with AB. GTFOH Chill. As far as AB goes, I'm hoping he keeps working with the approved helmet and eventually get's used to it. Such a stupid thing to be so worked up about.

I agree. It’s not easy but what I’m really saying is drafting drafting a guy earlier than the third. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see posts all over this forum that belong in the random Raider stuff thread, or elsewhere for that matter. Could even go in the stadium thread. As for AB being such a diva and distraction, I call bs. It's just more hating on the Raiders from the rest of the NFL and media outlets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
