Raiders have been like the red-headed, deformed step-child that you keep locked in a cage, under the stairs. You let him out twice a year on Sunday for a few drunken laughs with friends...then stuff him back where he belongs.
Since the NFL seems hell-bent on pretending this team is legit after a 15 year absence...A dedicated repository is needed for all things negative about this ass-boil of a team.
Donks seem destined for AFCW purgatory for the next half decade...so they dont really count anymore.

At least know something about the Chiefs before posting mindless gibberish.
KC signed an $8 million dollar FA NT, Logan...who has better stats than Poe in about 2/3 the snaps. Bailey is off IR as is DJ...and Houston is finally healthy.
That last one should worry you...he's a better all around player than Mack, who hasn't sniffed 22 sacks in a season...
Looks like Penn is serious about holding out...and it's totally ****ing up your training camp o-line chemistry. Carr goes down...so does your season. [Reply]
This Raiders marketing agenda is pretty fascinating to watch. Everyone knows that NFL corporate is always seeking new financial avenues to exploit...they've been trying to sell London as a home for a new franchise.
Someone in their corporate office saw Oakland as a team they could "re-market/image"....face it, they have been terrible for 15 years and that does none of the collective 32 owners any good. That is a lot of hidden money waiting to be made...they finally have a young QB, they can sell, who isn't awful.
They are essentially taking a page from Hollywood....where they spend a disproportionate amount of the films budget on marketing. They know their film is bad...but if they can get enough people to buy the fake internet testimonials/hype, they can get them out to see it.
Oakland is still the 7-9 roster from 2 seasons ago, just with manufactured fluff and hype...nothing has changed, only a public perception that has been deliberately crafted..
To show how gullible the unwashed masses are... Del Rio is second in line for Coach of the Year in Vegas betting odds @ 9/1. He's only behind Belichick...****ing DEL RIO. They are also the leading all bets on winning the SB.
This is a team that hasn't defeated a legit contender...ever...in the Carr era. Dumb people will buy anything...thats why the shopping channel exists.
I guess this what the NFL was destined to become...a bad Hollywood movie. Predictable script and terrible acting... [Reply]

When Houston is fully healthy only Von Miller is in the same class as a pass rusher.
I expect him to have a huge year this season. [Reply]
The NFL directed refs essentially robbed the Titans and Bucs of finishing 10-6 and a possible Wildcard appearance.
Carr breaking his leg was divine intervention...and the universe simply correcting itself. It wasn't karma on Carr per se...more on the league for being manipulative liars. Texans fans wave hello....
Poetic justice....and exposed the Raiders as being a play-off sham on the national stage. [Reply]

Goodell wants them to stay.
We all know what's coming. Don't be surprised if you see a few more Houston-type shams this season. [Reply]

Kinda covering yer ass eh?
If the Raiders do well, it's because the Refs want them to win even tho they still remain the most penalized team in the NFL
If they dont win, you'll say it's because they suck [Reply]

For the NFL to act like they are 2nd best team in the AFC is a joke...even your level-headed fans know it.
There is not one player/position on your defense that is better than KC...Houston is better than Mack when healthy.
Now you're just being dumb
That Raider OL is arguably the best OL in the NFL- they have 3 pro bowl OL on that line- 2 pro bowl calibre WR's in Cooper and Crabtree- a pro bowl calibre RB in Marshawn Lynch and a franchise MVP pro bowl QB in Derek Carr
The only pro bowl calibre offensive player the Chiefs have in Travis Kelce- thats it.. there's not one other ...
Chiefs have a couple better players in their secondary but the Raiders have arguably the best defensive player in the NFL
If the Raiders roster is avg, then the Chiefs roster is that of high school level- [Reply]
