Broncos Gameday Thread

I'm kinda out of words at this point. I don't know what this team is trying to do. If they're tanking, they picked an awful year to do it. If they're not, that may be worse. I can't believe that after ALL of this we find ourselves at square one. It boggles the mind. Thanks, Mark.

These two words I know: GO RAIDERS.

Dolphins Gameday Thread

I'm trying to think of positives right now and am not having much luck. 

Brock Bowers is a stud and he is living up to his first-round draft slot (a miracle for a Raiders first rounder). However, having an all-world tight end on a team that is bereft of talent at QB, RB and WR seems like putting the cart before the horse, does it not?

Defense is showing flashes. But don't we say that every year?

Not only do we have the worst QB situation in our division, but also the most unproven coaching and GM situations. Just when you think the Chiefs might start showing some vulnerability, Harbaugh and Payton have their respective teams on a pretty steep path of improvement.

How many more YEARS do you think it will take for the Raiders to build a perennial top force in the AFC West, let alone the NFL? 

Again: How many more YEARS?

Anyhow, 10 a.m. PST kickoff in Miami. Might as well go beat the Fins and see what happens from there. GO RAIDERS!

Bengals Gameday Thread

Here we come, 2-7. 

Think about it, after all of these years and coaches and draft picks, the Raiders are LOSING ground in the division. 

The Broncos and Chargers are on the upswing, the Raiders are disintegrating back to square one, and now we're still likely YEARS away from any legitimate contention.

This is Mark Davis's doing. But at least he gets to rub shoulders with Tom Brady and sit next to blondes in his box and be the toast of Las Vegas while his stadium is half full of non-Raiders fans. 

Good job, good effort. 

I like to say GO RAIDERS, but it's like shouting into the wind these days.
