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.

It's the best OL in the NFL... keep dreaming sweet tits [Reply]
Those are nice. Front row seats to Tampa's coronation.
Division, conference titles are nice but pale in comparison to the Super Bowl win. And I thought we were talking about now. It will be very difficult for either team to make the Super Bowl now as the AFC is much, much stronger than it was back then. 2002 is irrelevant to the current rivalry. [Reply]

How would you know? You've never won one- Tampa never makes the SB under Dungy- Raiders would have blown out any NFC team in the SB that year- Bucs were very fortunate to get the Raiders coach that same year- That same Bucss team coached by Dungy and Gruden and the Raiders blow them out [Reply]

I know the difference between seeing my team participate in the championship and actually winning it.
Jesus...Raider fans are having to go back nearly 2 decades to find anything to talk shit about. :-)
They arent winning 5 games in the last 2 minutes this season...if either WR gets injured, they'll miss the play-offs. They'll probably miss them anyways. Middle of the road roster that were the positive beneficiaries in every close game. That isn't sustainable against the 4th toughest schedule this season.
Their coaches arent top-level...and that will be exposed this year, like it was in final game against Denver. That team came out flat and uninspired...just like they did against KC.
The NFL keeps hyping them as a SB contender...but when you break it down, they are a slightly above average team that hasn't defeated any of the better teams in the past 2 years. 2-9 against play-off bound opponents.
Thems the facts....Signing a 31 year old Lynch doesn't make them better than last year. Miller had 800 yards and 12 TDs...they can only wish Mr. Skittles matches those numbers....which he wont. He's just a name-brand at this point. [Reply]
