So our playoff run isn't dependant on anyone else? Yes, I believe we control our own destiny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Against a lot of depleted, mediocre to bad defenses too. Edited December 27, 2021 by RaiderX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Bradley should be retained? That our offense sucks? If so, Who do you fault for the offensive struggles? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Bradley should be retained? That our offense sucks? If so, Who do you fault for the offensive struggles? I mentioned this probably about a month ago but basically what I've always noticed is that what fans do is when the team is losing everything is the problem rather than what the problem actually is. For example last year the defense was giving up like 30 points a game and everybody agreed on that at first until the blame shifted from if cars score enough points or Gruden called better plays then we would somehow win more. I think the defense is this year's version of that: where the offense isn't putting up any kind of points and turning the ball over repeatedly while the defense is holding the other team to less than 20 points and then when the Raiders lose everyone agrees that the off is bad and then eventually the Blame shift to the defense not being that good. thats my point. Just wanted to repeat it when the Raiders actually won the game so you could see that even when they win the game the office isn't scoring enough points. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

agarcia34 Posted December 27, 2021 Share Posted December 27, 2021 That was rookie Josh Jacobs today. Haven’t seen him play like that in a long time. Even if those lose to the Colts there is still a path to the playoffs for the Raiders where that Chargers game becomes winner goes to the playoffs 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His footwork was just dazzling. If he plays like this every week, he’ll be a long term guy here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Second half I thought they were good, there seemed to be a few holes though credit to Jacobs too, a couple times he bounced outside when needed. I thought James played pretty well again. Parker was poor again though I thought. It's always hard to judge an OL immediately after the match for me as I don't specifically watch them on a play by play basis, be interested to hear what others thought ..........
