A lot of pundits say the Raiders OL is rivaling our's.

Sorry, don't see it.

I get they are a player down, but player for player, I fail to see how it is even close.
Maybe they were just comparing the RTs.

I know it sounds perverted, but I think getting an athletic TE like Kelse would be awesome. We are so used to Witten and what he does.

Don't judge me.

I think Free is better than Howard overall. Free gives up a lot of plays but if I am an opposing DC, that is the weak link I stress.

Speaking of punters, I remember hating Louie Aguiar for some reason.

I agree. Seeing what Jordan Reed can do, I'm jealous.

You mean to say that Witten stumbling down the field is boring?

That Jalen Richard is what Jerry Jones imagines that Lance Dunbar is.

I will say this about Witten. The false starts have been reduced drastically.

It feels like he's having a career year in that regard.

Carr is going to have to actually throw some passes beyond 10 yards of the LOS tonight. All of these passes underneath won't cut it against this Chiefs defense.

I think a lot of those were his BFF telling him he was getting the ball no matter what.

Looking at those Raiders rush defense stats has me praying the Cowboys and Raiders meet up in the Super Bowl.

I thought about it maybe having something to do with the QB change as well, but I didn't want to appear as if I were piling on poor Antonio.

That was nice.

When you play KC you don't expect for them to attack you like that. Their offense kind of lulls you into a false sense of security.

Eliminating all the pre snap gyrations down to 1 second on the play clock is a good thing. Tougher to be frozen in your stance for 15 seconds while QB is spazzing out nearby.

Hill has given them spice the last few weeks.

If they were smart, they go out and get a stud possession WR.

That is one thing that for whatever reason, Reid has avoided. He got Terrell Owens and he got a SB.

He is a lot like most of the old school "good coaches". They want to mold shit into something to make themselves look better or something.
