Does this sloppy win help Rivera's chances?

I really think he's gone no matter what. It sucks because I think he's a pretty decent coach with an eye for talent, but I'm pretty sure that the new GM will want their own guy.

I'm not so sure.

Today for the first time I heard an offensive player say they love playing for him and hope he stays (Greg Olsen, specifically). I'd say the chances of him sticking are getting better.

Reminder the raiders have played other teams tough all year.

I never expected a blowout but I didn't expect a game this sloppy.

yeah they shut out a team last week which is hard to do no matter who you're playing in the NFL. their record tends to make people overlook them but their defense is nothing to take lightly and they've hung in there despite having been eliminated from playoff contention for what feels like forever and having dealt with a ton of injuries.

Holiday game for a team that is just playing for is coach going against a seemingly cupcake team. It's hard to get every player on that field ready to play for that. The OLine certainly looked like it was already home for the holidays..

Honestly though this team has a lack of *real* talent in a lot of areas.

OL, #2 WR, DB, DT

Rivera's coaching has been abysmal at some points, but it's hard to see any one doing really well with this team. We're also really young and we're starting to put it together.

A new, proven talent evaluator (if we get Ross, that is), and a young team starting to come together bodes well for next year. I'm indifferent about Rivera, he hasn't proven a lot, but the team loves him, and I dunno if a complete system change will help but whatever.

Chud needs to gtfo tho.

A win is NOT a win in the normal sense when you have been out of the playoff hunt for weeks. Meaningless game

that's not surprising coming from you considering that if it was your choice we would have seen derek anderson for the entire second half.

look at the intensity level of both defenses in this game and tell me that the players don't think a win would be "a win in the normal sense"

      In addition to Evero there's one large change that likely should happen.

      It's honestly pretty interesting just seeing this pairing play out. Canales’ offenses (Seattle, Tampa) are run-first, under-center, play-action systems built around defined reads and intermediate/deep timing throws. That structure worked when he had QBs like Baker Mayfield or Russell Wilson in a system that created clear launch points and sightlines. His success has always been tied to a credible run game + play-action gravity. You can see that with the Panthers team building philosophy as well. Coker and TMac both are bigger receivers that won't get the best YAC production but thrive as possession receivers in contested scenarios. They're not the best in space and creating additional yardage in such, and would likely fair better systematically with a stronger armed QB who can create better opportunities on those boundary 1v1 matchups with stronger throws. Bryce, on the other hand, is a spread-native QB. His strengths are rhythm, spacing, quick processing, and off-script creation. Asking him to live in condensed formations with long-developing play-action concepts just hasn't been his forte. And well, his boundary throws are limited in velocity which takes a big chunk of the playbook off. And I mean a QB like Bryce can still work, it's just Dave's offensive philosophy and foundation is very much at odds with Young's physical limits and his own experience. So it's certainly still a learning experience for Dave to figure out how he can mesh his offensive philosophy with Young's strengths. He's very inexperienced with maximizing Bryce's strengths with his system. Would love to see us bring in an OC with spread experience and adaptability to implement a cohesive system with Dave to allow Bryce to thrive, as it's obvious we're sticking with him for a bit longer.

      CBS Sports brief discussion about questionable Canales decision making

      Only thing I really agreed with is questioning why we didn’t take any timeouts on their last drive.  I know hindsight is 20/20, but I think it would’ve saved clock bc they were desperate to score as soon as the opportunity presented itself, but I also think it could’ve helped the defense regroup and maybe give us a better chance to stop them.
