Horrible start to the season for sure........Doing my best to take a deep breath and have patience and see how the season ends.

Having said that if McD loses the team, may as well send him packing sooner than later.

Its a draw at this point. Id rather not be arguing over who is the worse turd or not. We need a franchise QB

Mark is still deciding if he is wearing his Monsters Inc tennis shoes or Avengers tennis shoes today

Woke up and the sun is out. What a nice morning.

It will be Raideresque to beat the Chargers next week just to inject the slightest bit of hope that maybe things aren’t that bad and create a few believers and then…….

You might be surprised to learn alfalfa which the horse eats.... has a better flavor than the hay that cows prefer.

The cow chips however make for a higher burn point than horse shit which has a much lower burn rate. Alfalfa is cocaine to deer and elk so if your hunting in farm country, keep to the edges of those crops ;)

At least Raiders will enjoy their first of two home field advantage this season

Party at Ivan’s house!

Miami today is Al’s dream team. SPEED

The Raiders and the Steelers have played each other 31 times with the Raiders holding a slim edge with 17 wins. 6 of those games were in the post season. The current odds have it like this:

Raiders -2.5 (I agree it is too close to call)
Over Under 43 (take the under)

Of course the most famous match up was the AFC Championship game in 1972 also known as the Immaculate Reception game. Debate over this game has raged on for the decades since the Steelers won the controversial game. That game may very well have been the first to go to booth review, but that has also been debated for years. The list of notable players from this storied history is too long to even attempt. Let's just be honest, neither team was sending Christmas cards to each other.

The menu today will be interesting. A friend of mine gifted the wife and I some excellent elk burgers so that is happening. Still deciding what to pair it up with, but pretty sure there will be very little going on the burgers themselves. Some salt and pepper might be just what the doctor ordered. The drink of choice tonight will be The Pope's Smoke 2021 (a Grenache wine)

So sit back ladies, as your Raiders host the Steelers in prime time on Sunday night football.

Enjoy the game Sometimes elk burgers have anywhere from 2% to 10% added beef or pig fat added so they stick better. Some burgers are 100% elk. Either way, a very very lean meat and easy to over cook. They will cook faster than beef. Enjoy! Best meat on the planet

After 19 games there should be some progress from young players it doesn't have to translate to wins but your draft picks shouldn't look like shit. You’re done and at the end of your rope. I get it and have been there a few times this last decade too. But this regime is in game 2 of their second year. You may well be 100% correct but it is asinine to not give them the rest of the season. I do get your frustration though. I had a feeling they were going to look rough at the start of this season but I’m holding out hope the Raiders turn the tide by mid season or so.

No idea what will happen, won’t see it as I’m in Tulsa right now and will be at an Alice In Chains concert with my daughter. Sounds like a good time.

I remember seeing Metallica at the Cow Palace in SF when I was either in high school or just out of high school.

Then taking my 18 year old son to see them a couple decades later lol.

Sounds like a great thread starter at the Saints forum. Let us know what they say.

Is the Saints forum that boring that you have to keep chiming in here? Seriously

Question. If both Garoppolo and Hoyer were to get hurt, who the QB when Raiden O isn't even dressed out? Does he go get dressed if Garoppolo gets hurt? If that's the case then he should be in uniform all the time. Thats what I read somewhere around here. He can be "non rostered" QB 3 but cant play unless 1 and 2 are out.

Texans are really friendly too. I was briefly in the Dallas/Fort Worth area but not long enough to meet anybody however I did spend some time in the San Antonio area and found the majority of people extremely warm and friendly. Enough that my then 10 year old daughter said, "Can we keep living where we do (NorCal) but switch the people with the people in Texas"? LOL

Fk Shitsburgh by the way.

Meh. At least Carr gave the haters someone to root against on game day. Now there’s no more scapegoats or distractions and we are all faced with the realization that the team’s issues are rooted far deeper than the QB as they always have been. The team is rotten from the owner down. I dont know a single Raider fan that ever said the Raider issues the last 20 years are only the QBs fault. Not 1. I also dont know a single Raider fan that ever enjoyed losing. I highly suspect though that few in here are rubbing one out whenever Jimmy throws an INT. I'll say again, the Carr fandom here is creepy.

If you sell them in pairs I want one too

I don’t know if it’s me…or the team…..or the coaching staff….or the owners….maybe it’s me…..it could possibly be all of you…..it could be the Russians…..but I can’t remember a season where I cared less than I do this season, in my entire 40 years as a fan. Maybe it’s BK and my free shirt Ive been feeling that for several years now. Actually this year I began to be interested for the first time in awhile. Cant put my finger on why though. Hmmm

Someone around here a couple of weeks ago said If Jimmy G goes down, Hoyer likely will finish the game but if Jimmy is out long term, Raiden O will take the rest of the games. That sounds plausible to me

I left Ayuik on my roster. I hate FF

I`ll start a petition for SirRaiderDuck to replace a useless beat writer effective immediately...

I'll add a question: "McZ, the Raiders have historically had the worst defense for nearly 21 years.....this is year 2 since you ve been hired.....what massive improvements can we look forward to in year 2 of your command"?

"Coach McDaniels: You were hired because of your reputation as an offensive guru whose gameplans constantly changed to attack the defense's weak points. Through the first two weeks of the 2023 season, you have the worst scoring offense in the league, with a gameplan that seems to consist of 'Force the ball to Davante Adams, Jakobi Meyers and Josh Jacobs every chance you get, ignoring everyone else.' What gives???" It would be a breath of fresh air to have some reporters with some balls ask the tough but obvious questions

Sold My Soul wrote Tue Sep 19, 2023 8:57 am:But....but.....we supposedly have the number 1 O-line? :rofl:

Who said that?

All I am saying, is that if people are going to hold Carr responsible for his garbage line and defense, why is everyone giving Jimmy a pass? I have always said that qb wasnt our problem. Sure Carr isnt a top 5 qb...I get that...but he never played with even an average defense. You can win games with average qb play...you cant win games with a bottom tier defense. I`m not giving Jimmy G a pass for anything. Its been 2 games, He has shown balls and he has shit the bed. No pass.

Carrsaders and Carrdashians gave the Fresno Fraud Turd puke asshole and his brothers........9 fucking years of excuses.

Now re read what I opened with.

The anti-Carr people have been talking shit all game. Once he makes a few plays and puts his team in a position to win...silence. I find it funny how people cant just let him go. I was fine moving off Carr, but once a raider always a raider imo. That “once a raider always a raider” is pure bullshit. Sounds great to kids and drunks but isn’t based in reality today.

“Anti Carr people”? What about when Carr is shitting the bed and the Carr Dick suckers go quiet? Come on man, it’s the same on both sides lol

Defense people...we dont have it. It is the great equalizer.

So much talk? Do tell. What do you mean “now nothing”?
