2019 Oakland Raiders Discussion

12-3. Most wins since 2000, and 13 is the most in franchise history.

 

Man, I was looking forward to seeing the Raiders in the playoffs for the first time since I've been an NFL fan, now we're just gonna get beat down by whoever we face.

It was a great sports day before this injury to me also, I was celebrating the holiday gift that was the Rams not being on my tv 2 Sundays in a row and then this happens. Just because I live in So-Cal I'm forced to see the garbage Rams on Fox instead of much more interesting matchups.

 

...sigh. I feel sick all over. Prepping for the worst. Most empty win I've ever felt.

 

So if we have a win and a bye, maybe McGloin can win a game for us. Then Carr would have four weeks to heal up. Hmm.

 

TV kept replaying the play over and over and over again...can't even stomach a look. McGloin is a tough SOB but you can't replace an MVP candidate in Carr. Defense has to reach serious heights to keep us in so... Don't know what to say.

 

Well... A Denver win against KC tomorrow would be good. Not confident about our trip to Mile High next Sunday.

 

(expletive) x infinite...

 

It's all over, friends.

 

STATS
Carr finishes with a monstrous +35.3 QB Impact, smashing his previous best (20.0), and smashing Gannon's best (+27.4). Truly a legendary season for the young man. He's up to a cumulative rating of +49.9, destroying everyone in the Post-Gannon era. His closes rival, Jason Campbell, is at +13.3

McGloin takes over. McGloin has a cumulative -2.4 score, but he posted a +9.4 last season. He's a steady backup.

Carr finishes with the fourth most yards in franchise history for a single season, the fifth most touchdowns, the third most completions, the lowest interception %, the third best passer rating, the best QBR, and ties for the second most wins. Brutal loss.

Yep... McGloin is a gamer though not elite like Carr is.

 

Chiefs are thumping them, unfortunately.

 

It's still a game the Raiders could win. And perhaps they should win, even without Carr. I'm going into full on homer mode - we need this W to get a bye and be well prepared for whichever team we're facing in round 2.

I know it's the playoffs, but with the weapons we have on offense, a game managing QB has a fighting chance. Let's go, Matty.

 

If our defense shows up from the first snap and if we have a good game plan we can beat some playoff teams with McGloin.
