Raiders@Broncos on TNF game thread

[RaiderandBulldog]

It’s been an awful season but the Raiders do have a chance to stink up the Donks season a bit if they pull an upset.

[DeathStar24]

They won't. Blowout loss. Sean Payton will pick em apart. Denver D too good.

...I used to look forward to these games for days.....now, sitting here on a day off, drinking my coffee, coming here and seeing this thread is what even reminded me we are playing tonight.

[Goodlukchuck]

Let's go RAIIIDERS! need a big showing tonight.

[RunOverByHubbard]

I won’t ever root against the Raiders during a game, as in hoping for the higher draft pick. Especially true against a long time hated rival. But these days I take the losses in stride and look at mock drafts.

Of course I want a win but this season is lost and I hope the donkies or chargers keep winning to keep the chiefs down

[Jeevo]

Division game on a Thursday are the only things giving me some hope. Raiders 20 - Broncos 17.

[heavyD]

Broncos have been a pretty fortunate team that’s not played as well as their record indicates but their defense is elite and it’s a nightmare matchup for Kelly’s college offense and a QB that’s playing neutered and scared to throw deep. I’m just hoping the defense can keep it close and not another humiliating prime time loss.

[Opoponax50]

The Donks, while winning, haven't actually been playing great, so we have a chance to pull off an upset.

However, when 3rd and long presents a great opportunity for the opposing offense to get a big play, it doesn't bode well for us.

And who knows how many times our O is going to turn the ball over against Denver's legitimately good defense. Their plan will be like everyone else's: stack the box and make Geno beat you. It's a proven recipe for success.

The Raiders blew their collective wad last Sunday...this should be an epic beat down & Geno may not survive the 1st half!

Realistically where do you rank the team at the midway point.

I got us 5th from the bottom. Worse teams than us have to be
Jets
Dolphins
Saints
Browns

It is close with the Browns, but I still have them slightly worse than us

[Nor_Cal_Raider]

Nix is my qb in a league i teally need a win in, so that means the raiders will destroy him.

Titans are worse than us but other than that I think you're dead on. And the only reason we're better than those teams is Bowers (and Jeanty).

[Willmark]

As usual I won’t be surprised if we win or if we lose. In other words nothing is certain with this team other than long term losing.
