Raiders are rolling with an interim Head Coach, Offensive Coordinator, a 4th round rookie QB, and still hanging in there with top tier teams.
They have shown a lot of progress since Mcdaniels was fired, but we have to assume they are still using a majority of his playbook.
The losses haven’t been blow outs, and actually look competitive since AP has taken over.
I get the negativity, but just look at it realistically for a second. I’m not 100% sold on AOC at QB, but he still is making progress. I’m all for drafting a QB in the 1st round and letting them battle it out for the starting spot.
Just my thoughts. When the Chiefs tied it up 14-14 at halftime, I knew it was going to be a struggle to win the game. They’re SB champs with a generational QB and HoF HC. At least it wasn’t a completely embarrassing loss. (Like the Bears game.)
I appreciate that the Raiders are back to playing competitive, exciting football. Even though we have not been able to stop the run all year, but I chalk that up to personnel decisions (chandler Jones, taking Ty Wilson instead of Jalen Carter). But we have hitters on D and are getting more turnovers than previous years. The Raiders are at least fun to watch again (even in losses) and I am here for it!
