Thanks,

I will be at the game too. Be my first game since 2011. Let's get a win. Glad Dennis Allen gone, because before he was fired wasn't looking forward to going to this game.

Well if fat boy Jano, didn't miss his field goal before halftime, game might have been a different story. But we lost, glad we competed, instead of getting blow out by 21, like we would have if Allen was still coach.

Agreed. Allen was a horrible coach. Everybody was happy to see him gone.

It's interesting that with the same offensive coordinator, the Raiders suddenly opened up the offense. Guess Allen was more of a problem than I thought.

I wonder if sales of white visors are down now that Allen is gone.

Exactly, & Sparano is more open to letting the players have more input on decisions. http://losangeles.cbslocal.com/2014/...qb-derek-carr/

Great to see the improvement in competitiveness but the D-line stinks. Zero pressure and that was supposed to be a big upgrade.

How true, no pass rushers, and no threat to the opposing QB no matter who. Averaging one sack per game and two interceptions this season.

That's the only Charger game I missed all season, sounds like I missed a good one. Anyway how is the raiders first round draft pick panning out? Or is he just another waste of a high draft pick?

Actually it was a great draft. There are 7 rookies on the roster and here is a little article from Sports Illustrated:

I'm surprised by Carr's comments, that he has no regret on throwing the interception, intended for Brice with 1:15 on the clock and down only 3 points!

There's a time go all out agressive, but throwing caution to the wind, when at the very least you could tie the game with a field goal, seems foolish.

Anyhow, I really like Carr's performance overall and hope his enthusiasm is tempered with the end game in mind. Go Raiders!!!

Default 0-16?

The Raiders play the Cleveland Browns this weekend. This might be are only shot at a win. But Cleveland loss to a winless team last week in Jacksonville. Don't think Cleveland wants to get embarrassed, two weeks in a row, there going to go all out to try and beat us. If we lose this game, might be looking at a 0-16 year. The teams after Cleveland, are playoffs teams from last year, that are left on our schedule, except for Rams and Bills. The Rams game is on the road and Bills at home. Doesn't look good, I don't want to be one of those teams that go 0-16. Ten more games can we get one win?

Can't stop anyone on third down, teams converting over 50%.

Wow, what can you say. I am numb and disgusted by the Raiders inability to win a game. You're right this might be their only shot.

I really thought the Raiders had a chance to win half their games, as they were so close in a few of them. Then that disaster against the Dolphins, followed by a close loss to San Diego. And now this latest loss. Knocks the wind out of your sails.

Is it too early to start thinking of next years #1 draft pick?

Nope. I predict 1-15, but I don't think the win will be against the Browns. I think they will surprise one decent team and then go back to ineptitude.
