I'm not sure the last time I've seen us sign so many free agents and they are plug and play at this level.

When was the last time we were buyers by the trade deadline? Might not be a bad idea depending on who's available and what they cost 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ronjon1990 Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 The fantastic: We won, and despite the score, we won big. Could've broken 40 easily. NYRaider wasn't taking up 3/4 of the thread. Carr Ruggs Forced Turnovers O-line held up Sacks! Edwards Big plays The rest: Run game is still just ok. Teddy is bad, so that helped a bit. Leatherwood is a penalty machine. Dude has zero situational awareness. Missing the FG was a bummer, but Carlson made up for it. Too many great punts going into the end zone. Little more hang time or positioning, and we'd have an absolute weapon as a punter. Run D isn't very impressive and the secondary seems to get banged up. Amik is a tough dude, but he's a mismatch for opposing offenses vs bigger WRs. Really hard to find much to complain about. A lot of the "bad" is stuff that just wasn't perfect (the missed FG, the missed opportunities for fantastic punts, etc). I feel good going forward. Great debut game for Bisaccia. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it's one of those games where you feel good about it because they did what they were supposed to do finally which was beat a team that they were better than. My thing that I can't get over as I feel like we were supposed to do this last week and didn't so I'm still trying to figure out if last week was the aberration game or this week with the aberration game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mentioned it in the game thread that I genuinely believe the Gruden thing had a negative impact. Last week, the effort and body language were just flat out bad all around. Today, we looked like a team ready to go out and win the damn game, not a team with a cloud hanging over it, and more importantly, not a team that came out looking like they "hoped" to win. Makes me wonder how much Gruden's schtick had actually started to wear thin on guys. I expected a win, but this could have very easily been a 40-10 type of absolute slaughter. Now onto next week, where I anticipate a ton of trolling regarding Jalen Hurts. 🙄 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the only thing that I can rationalize why a quarterback can only throw for 100 yards and you still lose. It's the first game this season where I felt like they look like they were a better team for the entirety of the game. I wanna see what they look like next week. It should be a win based on who the better team is and what the raiders looked like today Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
