Their demolished o-line is horrible. About as bad as the Eagles last year

Same way the Tennessee Volunteers got so bad


Poor leadership at the top coupled with shitty fan support

Wtf do you expect? We cut damn near everyone making an decent kind of money, most of which were way overpaid from stupid Al contracts.

The Raiders will have near 50 million in cap space after this season and can then begin the move forward out from Al's shitfest and build around Clowney.

They signed a shitty QB and should be starting their backup.

I'm 35 years old. I don't think the Raiders have been relevant in 20 years. This is just another typical season for them.

I guess going to the Super Bowl about a decade ago isn't relevant...

It doesn't help that they have $45million against the salary cap in players that aren't even on the team.

they've been reeling since the Bucs stomped them in the Super Bowl.

the Jamarcus Russell pick was a huge whiff but they've had many others.

McFadden is an exceptional back but he can't stay healthy.

And this.

It's 4LSU2's avatar's fault.

It seems like of was decades ago that Gruden had them there. It was 11 years ago.

Gruden taking them to the SB was the best walk off by a coach, ever.
