BackinBlack Posted September 22, 2022 Share Posted September 22, 2022 At start of season, I just wanted to start out 3-3 If we win this week I still think 3-3 is on the table. DC needs to step up. I want to see a 4 TD game from him / this O. I could see us finally feeding Jacobs, so if he eats I am fine with that too. Time for our O to take over as the strength of this team.

RaidersAreOne Posted September 22, 2022 Share Posted September 22, 2022 Titans looked horrendous, but then again the Bills are going to make everyone their - this year. Limiting Henry is so crucial, Tanny just isn't it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drfrey13 Posted September 22, 2022 Share Posted September 22, 2022 All I want to see is players earn their check and if we take an L it is because the Titans gave it to us instead of the team thinking the game is over at the half. I want to see 60 minutes of effort. Do not care what the score is. If McDaniels can not get that out of the team after last week he is not the man for the job. Anybody else found not giving 60 minutes of effort needs their walking papers. I do not care who it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bucksavage1 Posted September 22, 2022 Share Posted September 22, 2022 I hate playing teams that just got blown out on national TV. Two 0-2 teams with basically the season on the line. 0-2 is hard enough to make the playoffs, 0-3 nearly impossible 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BayRaider Posted September 22, 2022 Share Posted September 22, 2022 (edited) Competent coaches don’t start 0-3, first year or not. Especially in two games were favored (ARI, TEN) All or nothing here for McDaniels. I’m already lukewarm on him leaning towards cold. If he loses here, I’m already done. Literally. My patience as a Raider fan has dwindled, I know failure and bad choices when I see them. If we beat Tenny by two scores, I’ll be back on the saddle. Not fully back on the saddle, still lukewarm, but learning more towards the hot side. Edited September 22, 2022 by BayRaider 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCOUGHMAN Posted September 22, 2022 Share Posted September 22, 2022 I just want a dam win. If we go 0-3 I can see the team turn on jmd. Especially given the love the team has/had for rich and gus . After watching the pressers yesterday only adams seems serious. Everyone else seems so nonchalant cracking jokes like we’re 2-0. No sense of urgency or desperation. I firmly believe a team is a direct reflection of the coach. Sunday will speak volumes 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No sense of urgency or desperation. I firmly believe a team is a direct reflection of the coach. Sunday will speak volumes Yeah that was always a concern about McDaniels. Rich had his ceiling as a coach. I think Dan Campbell has plenty of flaws from a coaching perspective. I think Mike Vrabel has plenty more flaws. They need good coordinators and good players to pull them along from being meh at best in regard to coaching. But their teams would follow them off cliffs every single Sunday come hell or high water. I've never gotten that vibe from Josh McDaniels. If anything, I felt the Broncos couldn't wait to get rid of him and the Colts seemed relieved not to have him. I'd hoped maybe the 3rd time was the charm, but two weeks in..... I'm far from convinced. We hired the guy, but he wasn't someone most any of us would've had as first choice. If anything, he was the one guy many of us wanted to avoid. Someone above all of us got rosey-eyed about him. And, well, one only need to go back through the draft threads over the last few years to know virtually any of us seem to understand football at a higher level than the Raiders organization. I'm firmly with @BayRaideron this one- we go 0-3, I'm done with McDaniels. We're a better team than our opponents have been, imo, and this isn't Josh's first rodeo- his first one just sucked and his second got left at the altar.

The Indy thing was a total disgrace on McDaniels part. His staff were already buying houses and they found out through the media. Josh ghosted them. Same ol Denver Josh. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ronjon1990 Posted September 23, 2022 Author Share Posted September 23, 2022 A few notable quotes from the day the news of his hire broke: Rolni- my big question is can he be a leader Blazer026- Seems like a low floor, high ceiling. Excited to see how this goes. Heart of Oak- Denver, JMcD lost the locker room, now that was 10 years ago and people change but has he learned the lesson of what went wrong and changed his approach as far as being a leader of men. Totty- Not this guy. It needs to be 10-7 or better to justify this. BayRaider- Can’t wait to see the excuses if we go 5-12 and people are in fully-defend McDaniels mode. Jraider91- Have no faith, NE coaches are terrible and maybe he has made immense growth as a person but i find the idea of him doing it in the same place he was before questionable Nightmare- I have no doubt McDaniels will improve our offense, and I like the idea of having an actual structure in place between the GM and HC, which we haven’t had in… forever? I do think there are a lot of red flags with Josh though. There’s the obvious ‘Patriots Way doesn’t work’ argument, there’s the fact McDaniels himself is questionable in terms of leadership Jeremy408- The Athletic's Vic Tafur reports Raiders players "were disappointed to hear the news" that the team hired Josh McDaniels as head coach. ronjon1990- I'm soooooo disappointed in this hire. Ugh. Doesn't seem like much has changed so far. If anything, it looks bad. Especially the Tafur report, in light of the team's attitude and the results so far.

Ugh. Doesn't seem like much has changed so far. If anything, it looks bad. Especially the Tafur report, in light of the team's attitude and the results so far. There’s also quotes of me excited about his ceiling… but overall the hire felt lukewarm. I would have preferred Jim Harbaugh or some elite college coach. McDaniels gives me pause because he hasn’t proven he has leadership traits yet. He also hasn’t proven he is ANYTHING without Brady. Last year was the first year ever where it looked like he might be something without Brady. He made a rookie QB with a meh arm look pretty good. So that got me excited as well. He’s a boom or bust hire, similar to a super athletic 1st round pick with barely any production. Rare for a coach to be a boom or bust. Josh McDaniels has no floor, it doesn't exist. He could be a 5-12 HC no matter what his roster is due to leadership issues. However, his ceiling is sky high, like multiple Super Bowl appearances sky high. It’s only a two game sample size, but it’s leaning in the direction a lot of us feared. Game 3 will be very telling. I will still have my ears in hoping he improves as a coach and leader of men.

It's certainly the truth, no doubt he feels that way. But another burnout as a HC may just spell the end for his HC chances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
