NJ Raider Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 Gotta think we make some moves now. Defense needs a lot of help. Refs were terrible too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#1RAIDER FAN Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 Just now, big_palooka said: Defense has needed a lot of help for 15+ years. It's actually just laughable at this stage. Keeping Houston though to 27 is better than we expected. 11 Penalties.. Williams not coming down with close catches. That Incognito hold. Comes down to clutch plays that weren’t made whereas Watson makes them. but yes, for the last however many years the defense has been bad. Hasn’t delivered a clutch play in how long nor taken over a game. They’re just kinda there on the field each game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geezy Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 TW needs to come down with both of those balls, Incognito hold was huge. Takes us from 1st and 10 in FG range, to 2nd and 20. we had them on the ropes and couldn’t finish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What ifs are cute, but it is what it is. if we had Mack we’d have a decent defense, but we’d be without our two best offensive players, Jacobs and TB. Gruden is an offensive guy and decided to roll with building an identity on offense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you pick in the top 5 you need to get a game changer, unfortunately it looks like we didn’t. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TecmoSuperJoe Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 No more nutty road schedule for you folks at least. Even with your defense, the AFC is weak. The Raiders can still make the playoffs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TLO Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 Let’s go out and win the next 4. Doable imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roi34 Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 We needed bosa. But strength of schedule fudged us last year. 9ers beat us we should of had that pick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geezy Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 We’re on the brink of some good things. A lot of guys choose to focus on the negatives but there are a ton of good things going on with this team. Offense is another WR away from being really good. Gruden has developed an identity on offense behind the OL and Jacobs. Carr has played well, were not asking him to put the team on his shoulders and win games but he’s managing the offense Mixing in some big time throws and keeping us in games, I hope we stick with him, to be honest. Can’t wait for Zay Jones to get up to speed, I think he can help. the defense needs a ton of help. Thankfully we get Abram back, it’s like we’ll have 3 first rounders next year. Really want a WR in round 1 but wouldn’t be mad if we double dipped on defensive help. We’re A lot closer than I thought we would be. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dodo Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 Not too upset. Defense had some flashes, Watson is just a special player. More than anything I wish we hadn't punted at the end. After that holding call the rest of the way should've been planned as 4-down territory Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJ Raider Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 I agree. Should have gone for that fourth. It sucks to lose but this team has some good things going for them. Our offense has looked good the past two weeks aside from the turnovers. The Green Bay game was much closer than the score would indicate. We hung with two of the better teams in the league on their home field the past few weeks. We have four very winnable games coming up. Hope Hudson is okay but the rookie held his own. Let's see if we do anything with that Conley pick. I hate that he made that play but ty should have held on and he got away with pi. He will continue to give up big plays .

BayRaider Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 I know you guys want a defensive trade but unless he’s a young guy that will play at a high level for us for at least five years I want no part of it. Very unlikely we make the playoffs. Build through the draft. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
