Great timing honestly. Was afraid they were too poor to do it. The team has a lot of talented players and steps needed to be taken to keep them from becoming disassociated from the team.

Christmas has come early @Live in the Now @StreetHawk @Super Fadio Bro

f*** Mark Davis

 

[Super Fadio Bro]

Mark Davis has smartened up.

 

[EpochLink]

That’s step one, step two would be to bench Jimmy G, he f***ing sucks

 

[Hasbro]

Damn!

About franking time.

I literally saw the same disfunction in Oakland with Mcdaniels as we did in denver

It was like every single play was the equivalent to pulling teeth

usually coaches have a few trusty plays and screens that are go-to's that always work

with McDaniels everything is sooooo damn difficult when it doesnt have to be

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Fired in the middle of night, damn

McDaniels leaves another team in ruins as he gets kicked out the door after less than 2 years.

This should close door on McDaniels HC career

 

[Breakers]

I guess they couldn't find any racist emails to void the money

 

[Live in the Now]

Why the late-night firing?

McDaniel's leaves another team in ruins and far worse shape than when he took it over

I wouldn't say he left the Raiders in ruins. He did a very bad job but the team is not in irreparable shape. The best thing he did was jumpstart our QB process, it was time to start the process of drafting somebody. Jimmy G sucks but Carr wasn't any good either. McDaniels sealed his own fate by doing this.

There's no permanent lasting mistake that comes as a result of McDaniels, they didn't waste a first rounder on Tebow or have a ton of dead cap or anything like that. The worst thing he did is in game management of the talent at his disposal, that is something that can easily be fixed. The players he drafted don't suck. We didn't trade any of our future picks either. There is something wrong with his coaching process, NOT the players (other than QB but that was already a problem before he got to the team).

 

[Canes]

Well deserved though

 

[jcs0218]

Tom Brady is the only reason Josh McDaniels has ever looked competent.

Tom Brady is the only reason any Patriots co-ordinator has ever looked competent.

Fixed it for ya

The drafting this year and last was solid, we got pieces. Issue with McDaniels was too many Patriots players within the ‘system’ that was there, Meyers has looked solid but Hunter Renfrow has looked like a scrub and not getting involved in the offensive play calling. Also, the tight ends were MIA for the first few weeks not getting involved in the offense.

Next, Jimmy G has been shit and how inconsistent the offensive line has been he’s been terrible. Patriots and Niners oline was good, Raiders not so much. His reads are shit, deer in the headlights.

Defense, it’s been better as the weeks have gone on. Yesterday, the defense carried the load but they were gassed.

So with that being said, ride the rookie QB.
We’ve seen Garbagopplo enough, he sucks.

 

[Live in the Now]

Looooooooooooooooool

 

[EpochLink]

Looooooooooooooooool

See what you got with him, can’t get any worse. Jimmy G and his lack of awareness in the pocket is bad.

 

[Terry Yake]

welcome back to NE

 

[PanthersPens62]

Had to happen but dammit why could they not have waited until AFTER they play Miami in 2 weeks? Heaven forbid they actually use some of their decent offensive talent correctly by then.

 

[HolyGhost]

Does not matter WHERE the Raiders play--they are still the Raiders

 

[BB88]

That’s step one, step two would be to bench Jimmy G, he f***ing sucks

Garoppolo, the master of wins and lossess column

 

[No Fun Shogun]

Oh look, the hire that everyone knew would end badly ended badly.

 

[spintheblackcircle]

Does not matter WHERE the Raiders play--they are still the Raiders

Team has been irrelevant this entire century.

 

[Unholy Diver]

I wonder if Jimmy G gets cut and goes crawling back to SF and Shanahan

Nah keep starting him and tank.
