Season is done, so we move forward to the offseason. Sucks to be doing this so early, but it is what it is.

Chuck Bresnahan has to be fired. There is no way this team will ever compete with the defensive schemes he calls up.

We need a GM to make all the right moves from us, something i thought would never happen.

And we need to figure what the fuck is up with DMC!

Fuck, today was what we deserved. Our Db's our the worst in the league. Combine that with Breshnahan's horrible game planning and this is what you get. I am excited about our offense for next year. But Hue needs to bring in Del Rio, switch to a 3-4 because that is what we need to run with the type of backers we have and roll em again next year. Palmer played a hell of a game today and if you were at the game you know that pick was on Ford not Palmer. A win today would have been great playoffs or not. This offseason is about keeing our offense together and addressing the defensive side of the ball,m straight up.

I have been busy and have less time to play with yall, but you know it is still the Nation regardless. I hope yall had a good Christmas and safe new year. Get out there and give back.....

Now y'all see why we should've drafted Spiller instead of McClain. Palmer didn't even get to hand the ball to McFadden one time. We lost games because of that sorry as cover 2. McClain can't cover running backs but he supposed to cover wide receivers deep downin the middle of the field.

g-d give it up already. McClain isn't good but neither is Spiller. He would've been a shitty pick too.

position we need the most is all on D

1. Safety
2. CB
3. D-Line

Seymour doesnt have much left in the tank, houston had a dissappointing year, only 1 sack. Wimbley under performed this year, Routte did also. Our whole LB core played below average. Maybe it was the schemes maybe the players, but no position on the D is safe.

just by reducing the amount of penalties will see a massive improvement in the Raiders, every year it's the same story with penalties.

That's hard to say. At least Spiller isn't injury prone. DHB went out on a stretcher and was back the next week. Ford was carted off and still beat McFadden back.

Chris Townsend from 95.7 heard from a source that almost our whole Defensive coaching staff will be fired tomorrow..
really? I think, despite how bad they played, shepard, and van dyke improved a lot under Rod Woodson. By no means where they great, but theyre young, and I dont think rod should be on the list of people getting fired

mclain played on an injury, and had that whole point a gun to someone's head and not kill them phase, at the beggining of the year he was playing good football, but the whole second half he was dull, not a lot of sideline to sideline speed. I blame bresnahan for the lack of blitzing. I didnt see any kind of blitzing, the front 4 had to attempt to do it themselves on every down, even after they got shutdown for 3 straight quarters

I'm sure when they hire a GM he will fire Hue and hire his own coach. No GMs gonna wanna roll with someone else's guy I wouldn't think. That's gotta be the most undesirable GM job ever by the way. Lol @ 1 draft pick

We have a bunch of young talent, but they need to stay healthy..Palmer throws alot of passes that make me SMH..he should have been picked off at least 3 -4 times today....I like Tyvonne Branch, he's a stud...

Lamar Houston didnt see much of the field this year...

Mcfadden seems to be having a good ole time on the sidleines every time they show him..Tearing up sunflower seeds and laughing...
He needs to stay healthy and if they think he cant do that, they need to let him go...Sorry to say that but they have a decision to make...

No they wouldn't of. The reason we lOst is all on our D.

We lost 4 of our last 5 and gave up 36 points a game in those loses. Cable or hue had no say in who ran the D for Al

we need to bring in a GM and let him do whatever he wants. the problem is there has been no vision for this team in years. we need a solid long term plan, and have a fucking identity. what is this team's identity right now? a bully? yeah fucking right! we're the complete opposite of a bully

Overall I still like Hue, and think he deserves another shot, but if a GM comes in and wants to fire him, so be it. we need someone to build the team in their vision. we absolutely need a new DC. Mike Nolan or Jack Del Rio... somehow grab a nose tackle and switch to a 3-4

And you're right...he was better at OC...


but I don't see him going anywhere right now...


@Trading Ford and keep Moore and DHB ...really? DHB? ha ha Ford should stay and shouldn't even be in trade talks at all..


Bush can be a #1 RB if he had a better offense to open up for him..
