    Coach B seems like that is def the way he would be. I def think that would be the way to go for changing the culture of the team

    after seeing that the charge can be 2-20 years Im not surprised the release came. I'm still curious about the details and what the plea deal will be in the long run. Shame someone died for a stupid choice. Shame this young man threw his career and life away.

    Awful - what a bad decision. I've said this a bunch of times. If you make millions, hire a driver. Pay them well and let them save your life - and the lives of others. So sad that someone has died, Ruggs's gf is apparently more seriously injured, and his career is perhaps over.

    Bad decision piled on top of bad decision.

    The crash also killed the victim's dog.

    well moving on from that...

    Think we are going to snatch up one of the big name receivers out there? Ive seen some fans saying move waller out to WR and play dude that played for him (cant think of the name at the moment) at TE. What say the LB brain trust?

    Rumors so far...

    - DeSean Jackson-old but still has some burners.
    - Beckham Jr.-baggage (could be an Antonio Brown Redux).
    - John Brown-cut to get playing time elsewhere. Now?

    In house:

    - Zay Jones-now is his chance. Carr respects him.
    - Dylan Stoner-from the practice squad.

    I'm honestly a bit over the Raiders right now.

    I've loved watching Carr's interview. He's a fantastic leader and about as good as it gets in the NFL.
    But I also saw that Arnette was invovled in a car accident and was apparently driving recklessly.
    Jacobs had that possible DUI and accident. And he's always injured.
    This team's young guys are so immature, it's ridiculous.

    Also, Aaron Rodgers seems to have lied about his vaccination status. And the Packers seem to have known that. I gave up on the NBA because I couldn't stand so much about the culture surrounding the game. The NFL is probably worse.

    Old man rant over.

    ^Carr is straight up good guy...

    You also have cool human interest stories in Crosby and Waller.

    Let's not forget Nassib about his own admission being gay.

    I like the unassuming, down to earth Bisaccia.

    As crazy as this season has unfolded...there's always something positive to draw upon.

    I'd have the Raiders by 5.5 if Ruggs were playing. Without him, I think the Raiders still take it.

    I'm listening to the game. Sounds like the Raiders' D is not ready for this running game.

    Giants punched the Raiders in the mouth there.

    OK we left some holes in the line. Let them just move so easily down the field. Touch down pass gets picked if the defender didn't stumble back trying to defend it.

    Defense not awake yet.

    It will depend on Carr and the offense really. Im very curious how we look coming out. Defense just started slow again giving up points. Its up to offense to get the ball going.

    The run game is looking really good. Jacobs is showing patience and using some good cuts to get more yards
