Lol who was the dude on here always hyping up Davis Mills? Maybe he was on to something. He's been looking better than Stroud.

Fukn sad that the Texans backup Qb, Mills, looks light years ahead of any Qb we’ve had for a long time.

Can you imagine a Qb playing like that for us? We wouldn’t know how to act.

So if anyone wants to see what an A-list QB would look like playing for the Raiders right now (without Kolton & JPJ), go replay the Bills vs. Texans game last night. Eight sacks on Josh Allen and he was running for his life all night.

I’m not excusing Geno’s inability to find open WRs or read a defense — that’s legit — but that game made crystal-clear why the offensive line needs to get fixed next year (via draft, free agency, or both).

It also shows why Jeanty’s struggling

Horseshit. Josh Allen has ZERO legit weapons. No guys that can separate. Their "top" WR has been benched two weeks in a row for being an idiot. You rarely EVER see Allen have that bad a game. It will inevitably happen every now and then but you damn sure know that isn't the norm. Dude had 6 TDs last week. What were you saying then?

Oh, and explain your logic to James Cook bc dude ran for 116 yards at 7 yards a clip last night.

Next.

Without a healthy Bowers, Raiders are limited in the weapons they have (or at least how they're being used). Also, Texans weren't worried about Cook beating them..obviously..Next

If Josh Allen was on this Raiders team, they would not be 2-8. Period. Geno Smith makes this line look 1000 times worse.

And YOU said it shows why Jeanty was struggling. But yet James Cook did not struggle. The guy has like 35 TDs in 4 years but the Texans weren't worried about him beating them? I'm sure he was on their minds.

Yes, the line needs improvement. But we have a QB problem more than anything else. And it's not close.

I agree on the first and last lines..

Jeanty also needs to get fed the ball more BUT the facts that defenses don't respect Geno plays a hand..lets put in reverse. If James Cook was on the Raiders with Geno, he doesnt get the same yards as with Josh Allen at QB

I completely agree with that but that goes to my point that it's more about the QB than the O line.

Raiders oline has actually given Geno decent time on many of his sacks. He simply isn’t seeing the field and has no pocket awareness and doesn’t move well to buy any extra time. He blows.

Raiders oline in the run game has to be near worst in the league. I’ve never seen so many linemen standing upright looking confused after Jeanty has been hit and tackled before he even makes the LOS. Pathetic

This week the Cowboys are visiting the Lions in a matchup full of implication for the NFC wild card case.

Lions are more banged up. They have lost 3 out of last 5 and nearly lost to the NYG. Im getting the Lions have jumped the shark vibe. Meanwhile the Pokes seem ascendant having won 3 straight, including a big come from behind win vs Phi. Pokes are more focused on and have a better chance at the division crown.
