True

in a dream world yes, maybe

in the real world it is impossible to spend the same amount

in the real world spending money does not automatically equal success on the field

our line does not look that much worse than it did last season if you take into account the best center in the game is on IR. Everyone across the board is performing below board. An all-pro O-line does not make a huge difference this year.. We are focusing on all the sacks we take when we are trying to come from behind and every defense has their ears pinned back. Better Oline will only help a little in that situation and definitely not enough to make a difference.

we are predictable, inefficient, poorly motivated, and without any semblance of an offensive leader. What's more is that our limitations on both sides of the ball are glaring and our tendencies to overcome them are transparent.

We don't dictate anything and we play a very reactive type of game.

Until MAJOR changes are made ranging from as obvious as a new OG or two to a fundamental change and absolute commitment to our philosophical approach to the game, we are gonna bounce between league doormat to almost relevant.

Playing from behind? You haven't watched many games have you? Our problem is that we ****** defeat from the jaws of victory, not that we get manhandled.

that is all you got from that post? wow

Yes, from behind. As in, in the final minute. Behind, where we are when the game ends. Behind, where we are as soon as the other team watches what our game plan is and figures out how to stop it cold and for good. Behind, where we are in practically every offensive category and statistical category that matters.

I really did not think I would have to explain that one

      Smitty on TMac

      By Tr3ach · Posted

      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.
