RaidersAreOne Posted October 24, 2022 Author Share Posted October 24, 2022 Declining that 5th year option sure looks bad now. Dude is on a TEAR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

big_palooka Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 Easy in hindsight to say should've picked up his option. He had a nice finish last season, but he missed a lot of time with injuries after his rookie year. Question now is, do you pay him? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly, I think it was the right decision at the time though it looks the wrong decision right now. Let’s hope he can hold up the whole year, because if he goes down injured again that could impact what we do too. I’m interested to see what White can do too given our run blocking seems to be much improved. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

big_palooka Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 Need to tip the cap to the Oline and coaches. The Oline has played really well lately. Started ugly yesterday, but settled in and dominated both run and pass blocking the rest of the way. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCOUGHMAN Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 I like how he doesn’t need 30 carries to get 100 yards he’s motivated and balling hes our redzone guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was playing hurt and looked slow last season. But really came on late and was a big reason they made the playoffs. If he's healthy and has the juice, he's as good as any back in the league. Raiders are hard to beat when he's rolling and Carr can run play action. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This…but this offense depends on him so he kinda has all the leverage. from last half season till today he’s been ballin and carrying us he looks great. 3 yr deal won’t hurt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BackinBlack Posted October 25, 2022 Share Posted October 25, 2022 Honestly think Jacobs has been in the bottom of the league of yards till first contact his whole career. rbs need time to get moving. he finally has some holes and is crushing it. he has always been good, but blocking been poor. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobbyPhil1781 Posted October 25, 2022 Share Posted October 25, 2022 If he holds up the entire year, pay him but not premiere back money. We have so much money tied up in other parts of the offense right now that we can't handcuff ourselves even further by giving him a premiere contract Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

true2form Posted October 25, 2022 Share Posted October 25, 2022 I heard someone mention that Davante is making it so much easier on Josh too. He's not facing 8 in the box anymore with teams doubling Davante. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
