Jackson playing (so overrated), but now with him out, oh baby. Adams 140/2 incoming baby. Let’s go!!!! I think this is bigger news for Renfrow then adams. As long as someone is feasting though, Lets go! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't care what excuse anybody tries to make. I completely expect to win this game If we lose a close game against a top 5 talented team in the nfl, the only thing it will tell me is, we can compete. If we lose in a blow out, ill see some logic to your statement. But if 2 two top 5 teams play week 1, someone needs to lose. Doesnt say much IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are likely splitting with the Chargers this season. Why would it matter in which order we split? Interesting thought process. Let me say it in a more thought-provoking way: If we can't outscore them without their best corner with the passing attack we have, that will tell us a lot.

Jeremy408 Posted September 11, 2022 Share Posted September 11, 2022 2 hours ago, BayRaider said: My thoughts are it’s on the road, and while we always assume that’s a home Raider game, it was mostly Charger fans last season. We also got our brakes beat off in L.A. I also feel like Mack and Bosa always start the season really well before falling off later, especially Mack. This is also a new team that will work out some errors in the first week. Chargers win by a FG, but we beat them in Vegas, and go 11-6 on the season. There is nothing wrong or concerning what so ever starting the season 0-1. Unless we get obliterated by three scores, then I will be super worried 100%. Or if we start 0-2, then this team likely sucks. The playoff rate for 0-2 teams is laughable. One every 4-5 years usually. The way I remember it was mostly Raiders at the last Game in LA agent didn't seem like it because we got smashed. I think Keenan Allen was talking smack to the crowd after the game too.

They went heavy in FA to shore up holes in their defense. They are favored in this game. Someone is going to have to sell me on the Raiders Oline holding up, before I get behind the hype of the offense. I can see Bosa and Mack coming in fresh and throwing everything off. The Oline is to suspect for me to buy into this team being anything more than average. 1. We added pieces to our roster also we have better weapons than they do and our defense is arguably better 2. We beat them last time with a has-been OC any special teams coach as head coach. Now we have supposedly one of the best offensive minds in the NFL with a ridiculously good wide receiver that we haven't had since Randy Moss. 3. They're only favored to win the game because when you've only gone to two playoff games in the last 20 years the TV people's opinion on you isn't going to be very high. 4. One of their main pieces that they brought to improve their team is not playing this week who would be covering one of the best receivers in the NFL if he were playing. 5. That MVP candidate didn't win last time and heavily talented team didn't win last time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NickButera Posted September 11, 2022 Share Posted September 11, 2022 I agree with Stephen A. They are going to score more points than us, but as long as we win the game I'll be happy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
