I think they need to cap the damn time they spend in their caves watching film. Too much overthinking leads to no thinking at all.

100% agreed. I'm good with players doing it, because they need to. Coaches on the other hand can get into their heads too easy. KISS needs to be plastered on every, damn, wall in coaches offices. Keep It Simple Stupid.

No one will say no to Mike Evans for a 2025 1st rounder and if you do you’re dumb.

We aren't one player away from a super bowl. They gave up all their picks to get their ring. We've almost given up all of ours already. No way we should give up a first for Mike evans

Clearly our receiving core leaves a great deal to be desired. And Thomas Brown needs to be running this offense. But we still can't be turning the ball over like we did. You either believe Young will put in the work to correct it or you didn't like him all along and will use this as an opportunity to pat yourself on the back.

Two turnovers in a rookie QB's debut with no WR separation isn't what I'd call disappointing. It's what I expected. He's gonna make some bad reads. He's a rookie on a bad team.

He needs his WRs to get open, or get schemed open, so he gets a chance to overcome those bad reads.

I thought our play calling was better with Brown on the headset in the preseason games.

This shows me that frank shouldn't be calling plays. All the receivers running to the same area of the field... Great design

Honestly...

Reich got figured out early. Had a good drive in the 2nd, but that was it. Maybe they can be prepared to let Brown take over if he's not figuring out how to get guys open. Young had plenty of time. He was scanning the field, but couldn't find anyone to throw the ball to. That's playcalling. Playcalling and below-average route runners that can't get separation without the scheme doing it for them.

I think we'll see a few more open guys next week, because NO will blitz more. Then we can get mad at the OL for not protecting Bryce and half the board can get mad at Bryce for missing a WR after throwing a pass while falling down

I hope chark is back next week and playing one of the 8 games he'll play this year

Our deep threat was out today, but Mingo should've had a 99 yard TD with a better throw and TMJ should've had a deep catch with a better route ran.

As far as TMJ goes, IMO that’s just a WR being lazy not wanting to waste energy on a decoy route….and then it just happened to go that way.  He didn’t think it was coming IMO.  Think everyone was surprised. 
 

Chark IMO can’t be considered anything. He isn’t reliable enough.  Just a bonus. He can do the job when healthy though

    • Have you seen the mock drafts lately?   Most of them have us taking a QB. Just because you aren't high on these QBs doesn't mean the Panthers or other teams aren't.   If you want me to be real I just think you a Tmac homer and all you care about is us drafting him. It's why you get so defensive when people mention other prospects.   Be open to other people's ideas. Nobody in this thread is saying anything bad about your boy Tmac. 
    • Oh good lord Interest doesn't mean interest in making a bad trade to take the player, that's why I had such a long post, to accurately describe why those are two different things, but you don't like to listen to that stuff.  Being interested in a player doesn't live in a vacuum. It's very simple... there isn't a #1 draft pick type of grade on any of these QB's, if there was, we'd just take them.  You can't bluff a pick everyone knows you won't make, and trying to trade the pick is the CLEAR signal that you're not taking the QB. Just because the Raiders would have interest, doesn't mean they're going to bail us out of a situation we don't want to be in, they'd be smart about it and just sit put, let us take a non QB as we'd be telling the world we're not taking one just by trying to trade the pick, and then they'd take him at #2 (either with their own pick or by trading less to get that one). Oh, and your point of "if nobody is willing to make the trade, you obviously just take the best QB" is quite literally the dumbest thing I've ever read on here. If nobody is willing to trade up to take the QB, then it's OBVIOUS that the QB isn't worth taking with that pick, so OBVIOUSLY taking the best QB there is just OBVIOUSLY stupid and a bad pick. The moral of it is if there is a QB worth taking, we're taking them and not making the trade.  If there isn't a QB worth taking there, nobody is trading up to #1 to take one, we just showed the NFL how bad of an idea that is 2 years ago, it's really not hard to see. You keep making up this mythical situation where there is a QB who has shown to be worth trading up to #1 for and we'll be able to leverage that into a trade.  But we're the most QB needy team in the league, if we end up with the #1 pick, either we are taking a QB #1 or no QB is going #1 unless we get VERY lucky and two teams in the Top 5 fall in love with one prospect and we can play them off each other and fleece one of them. But again, I can't see that happening, as if there was a QB worthy of that, we're just taking him ourselves.
    • Sanders is with Tom Brady brand and that's his mentor. The Raiders owner was with Sanders taking pics at a Vegas game together.   It doesn't take much to connect the dots that Vegas will be interested in Sanders as their franchise QB. Oh yeah and guess who hasa small ownership stake in the Raiders Tom Brady.   I guess this is just another made up Madden idea by me huh?
