Dart & Skat looking great tonight. The Giants look to have a decent QB the team can rally around. Beat the Chargers now Philly.

The Raiders need to find a QB in the draft.

This style of play by Dart isn’t sustainable.

I agree. Dart is bringing back excitement and looks really good but hes going to get hurt a lot the way he plays.

And he has to stop going head first into contact.

I fear Skatt might have some health issues after his career. He did get me 30 fantasy points tonight though.

Me as well. He has been a great flex player to compliment Jeanty and Jonathan Taylor on my roster.

I'm so glad the Raiders did not select Jaxson Dart with the 6th pick as many of us lesser knowing fans wanted..........sarcasm

This franchise is cursed to being a f[raiders_icon]cking joke forever especially when you have the biggest Loser Wimp owner in the history of professional sports. No owner has ever been as bad as the Cameltoe, not even Georgia was as bad as the Raiders epic clown

We have only drafted one true franchise QB (Stabler). This was a signifcant factor in why we were not able to sustain things aside from the brief Gruden respite with Gannon. When the Raiders were in a position to draft a QB high in the first round the QB class was weak (1980-2007) or they decided to pass. Marino in 1983, Favre in 1991 and Aaron Rogers in 2005.

That was because the Raiders front office has been a f[raiders_icon]cking joke since Ron Wolfe left the Raiders.
Al Davis liked to take all the credit and plenty of fans love to give Al a lot of credit but the player evaluation and acquisition since Ron Wolfe left has f[raiders_icon]cking SUCKED. And that is the reason this franchise has sucked except for a very short 4 year window with Gru and Gannon, that Al Davis f[raiders_icon]cked up by trading Gru and then Al getting his egotistical senile old ass handed to him in the SB.

This franchise will go no where with Al's redneck inbred looking son running things. I had great hope with Pete coming on board but f[raiders_icon]ck them all

Al was brilliant but he started looking backwards. Todd Marinovich was supposed to be the next Snake. Rob Fredrickson was supposed to be the next Stork.

Ron Wolf was pretty much the only guy Al respected in terms of personnel. I think Ron might have stayed with the Raiders but after his heart attack Bob Urbanick pushed hard for Anthony Smith. Ron didn't like the pick and after Smith's legal history came out Al really worked Ron over for the pick even though he was against it.

I love the organization Al built but I wish he would have trusted the people that he had the foresight to hire.

Exactly... why didn't these f[raiders_icon]cking clowns draft Dart?

Oh yeah because the Raiders are a clown show of an organization and always make the worst decisions and can't draft or sign for shit. :rolleyes:

Then I remembered our franchise... all aboard the pain train

I honestly think Steve Beuerlein might have turned out being a good QB for the Raiders if Al had given him the chance but Al had other ideas.

The mistake was not passing on Dart with the 6th pick. The mistake was not trading down to 17 and using that pick to draft Dart. With their OL woes, what would Seattle have given up on top of the 17th pick to draft Membou?
