Did we pull the upset and make me more of a believer? Did we lose a close game and also make me more of a believer? Or do we get handled or hammered and everyone comes back to reality a bit? This game won’t make or break the season for me, but it will definitely tell me where we are right now way more than the Broncos game. I think this is the most sober minded approach Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Humble_Beast Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 I honestly think Jimmy is going to get hurt this game. Look at what the Bills did to Aaron Rodgers. Zach Wilson was getting lit up too, and running for his life. Jimmy already banged up from the first game. Might be AOC time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their home opener, with what most consider the 3rd best QB in football. This is just 1 game on a 17 game schedule. This all or nothing stuff makes no sense to me. Unless you want the team to start selling off guys like Maxx, Adams, Jacobs.....then there is no tank happening here. Play the schedule. Talk tanking in November when that sort of thing matters. I want to see where we stack up against good teams. For me I'd like us to be a contender with a harmonious offense like SF runs or angling for an elite QB prospect. IMHO those are the only 2 ways to win a super bowl, if it ever happens again for us. If we are in 6-8 win purgatory, this team will continue to just tread water. I think the bills are a great measuring stick for where the team is at. I'm not saying any week is do or die, but this will tell me a ton about where the team is and where they're headed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agarcia34 Posted September 17, 2023 Share Posted September 17, 2023 I don’t expect anything from tomorrows game. If they can pull this upset it would be massive but it’s gonna take a whole team effort and without Meyers it gets even harder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not saying any week is do or die, but this will tell me a ton about where the team is and where they're headed. I feel you. And then I remember this is the Raiders we are talking about. They could win this game, get us all excited and then lay eggs 2-3 weeks straight. My point being, just when I think we think we know where this team is at they tend to show up somewhere else entirely. Always the most jekyll and hyde team the last 5 years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

agarcia34 Posted September 17, 2023 Share Posted September 17, 2023 Game day! Let’s go! Expecting the worse hoping to be proven wrong. Found it pretty interesting that they flew out to WV and stayed there during the week. Usually only see that when a team already payed a east coast game the week before and don’t want to travel back then travel back to the East coast. Gonna have to play a way better game and much cleaner game today. Also could see this being a big Josh Jacob game as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeremy408 Posted September 17, 2023 Share Posted September 17, 2023 To be able to beat a perennial division champion on the road would be a very impressive feat to say the least. Would be a step in the right direction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a bad feeling we get destroyed today. We'll see though. Maybe we feature all the non-adams guys on offense and actually generate turnovers.
