He's our future. There isn't a star receiver or tight end on that team. Plus when there is ZERO run game and the defense knows it then there is only so much he can do. Don't forget he's the only rookie to start all games. He needs seat time, he already had the IQ.
Yeah I know all that, It's more out of frustration...
Most of the games aren't blow outs, they've been somewhat competitive "at times",
with a couple exceptions;
Like London with
Miami & the 2nd half meltdown with
Denver are embarrassing...
I'm just saying I'm not 100% sold on the guy yet,
I'm well aware of his college career too,
I follow the Fresno State Bull Dogs {this ain't college}
I know he's a damn rookie,
1st ever season starting rookie too, since AFL Tom Flores 1960,
but none of that crap, doesn't mean anything in the NFL !!
you need to win, right now out of the gate...
or it stands for
NOT FOR LONG
the management & coaching sucks a$$
{I know it's a messed up year, injuries etc., interim head coach Blah Blah Blah, BS}
Just Win Baby,
no more damn lame excuses,
get the right people,
in the right places,
make the right choices...
they'll probably have the #1 overall pick again next draft,
probably squander/screw it up too...
they squandered $60+ million of cap money $$$$$
only a select few players performing
I will 100% agree that he needs more support for sure, a couple of marquee receivers,
at-least some damn protection & a running game, to set up the passing game
& it would help tremendously
to actually have a durable RB,
that's not going to be injured 1/2 way thru the season
always
also better coaching & game planning would help too...
I hate the zone defense
crap they play allot NOW, get physical,
bump them off the line, they're playing off the receivers, way too damn far,
just giving the OP offense 7-10 yards every damn pass...
OP's dink & dunk them to death, then they get burned if they play run support with the safeties...
The special teams is weak, even the punter
King has been sucking,
Raiders have always had great punters, only guy that's doing good is SeaBass,
seems they're always giving our opponents great/mid-field position...
Staring in the hole...
Getting a lead in some cases, then folding like a damn lawn chair...
It's really hard to be a
Raiders fan the last decade
Don't get me wrong
I still bleed
Silver & Black, always will....
I'm just really disappointed/frustrated, pissed a little too,
like every fan of a losing team,
of a once proud winning franchise would be...
go from the winning-ist % team in 50 years after the NFL/AFL merger/history,
to the worst team in a decades time
