I'd like to know what people expect out of this game this weekend... who do you feel will be the stand out player, will any rookie's make themselves noticed?

I feel like David Gettis is the rookie that is ready to have a break out game and step up. He's slowly improved every game, he's getting open, making great catches, making the "should be" catches too.

Your opinions?

I expect a breakout game for the defense..maybe a defensive score. The bears oline is gaudy and collins might not have all the timing down needed. Offensively, obviously we expect Clausen to improve at least a little every week. I also expect the running game to continue to improve.

I'm hoping Armanti and Clowney break out. But I have two wildly different sets of "break out" for each of them.

For Armanti I hope he plays with confidence and doesn't look like a chicken with his head cut off. I'm looking for maybe one or two plays that justify the praise he gets for his explosiveness and athleticism. I've only seen him at camp and the during the preseason and I'm hoping he'll be somewhat comfortable with NFL speed by Sunday.

For Clowney I hope he can adjust to our offense and add some "veteran-ness" to our offense and use that incredible speed to add something to our WR corps.

Above all I want the team as a whole to add onto what I thought was a good foundation last week. We have shown that we're not absolutely horrible and now its time for everyone to put their Big Boy Pants and get that Dub.

Bradshaw put up 129 at 5.6 a carry with 1 TD and Jacobs (SUCKS BTW) had 62 at 10.3 a carry with 1 TD......I really think we can run better then those two. Big day in the running game and if Clausen can hit a few good passes this weekend......We may have a WIN!!!

I hope we can. Before that NYG game, the Bears gave up NOTHING on the ground. Like 30 yds a game or some crazy stat. Now it's like 77 yds a game. I think they'll retool and get their act together. This game is going to be on Jimmy.

Det did not run well against them, however they had two rushing TD's against the Bears.

Dallas was "Pass Happy" passing all game and for some reason passed for 51 times to 18 run plays.

Packers had 18 penalties that made them have to throw the enter game to get back into good "Down and Distance". (Plus it was the B. Jackson experiment.)

NYG was the first team that actually tried to run against the bears with 29 run plays to 30 pass plays.

You may be correct about their Run-D but it seems to me they have only had one team really test them this (early) season.

      Smitty on TMac

      I think everyone says Mike Evans because of size, but really they have different strengths and play styles.  Tmac is better on intermediate routes and not nearly as good at contested catches.

      Give Legette another season?

      At this point, it is criminal to go into the 2026 training camp/OTA's with XL penciled in as a #2 WR. The team must upgrade, either through free agency or the draft. If he cannot give 100% effort on significantly less snaps as a #4-6 WR(players like Tremayne have done that consistently) then I don't think you have a player worth rostering beyond the trade deadline. Offensively, we eventually have to upgrade to an NFL starting caliber C. It's been almost the length of time from Gross to Ikey since Kalil retired and we have below average to terrible C play. Love Mays as a BC-esque utility backup but he will never be an above average long term starting C.  The TE room is one of the worst in the NFL but it's a low usage position in this offense, so the investments are likely to be small, if any. I would never expect to see an elite TE in a Dave Canales offense. 100% agree on OL depth. We actually aren't bad there but BC will be gone, Mays is a UFA, Corbett is a UFA and Zavala has been both injured and bad. We have to bolster that depth again or resign guys like Mays and Corbett to keep that depth somewhat stable.

      Maxx Crosby is not happy

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      Bingo. The dude is a baller no doubt and I'd love to have him in a vacuum but like you said he's gonna fetch a haul so the only teams it really makes sense for are teams with an overall good roster who they feel an edge rusher like Crosby would out them over the top in terms of competing for SBs. I'd be looking st teams like the Pats, Bucs, Ravens, Seahawks, etc. It wouldn't be shocking to see him moved. He may be more valuable to a rebuilding team in the form of the draft assets he'd fetch than he is on the field. He should still have several more good years in the tank at 28 but by the time the Raiders can reasonably expect to rebuild he's gonna be on the decline.
