Let me know if you had him on your multiple TD in a game bingo card cuz you will be cut off from betting the rest of the year

Go Raiders

klint’s guys are gonna o have big games for us all year.

I’m feeling a weakness up and down my leg. Haven’t felt this way since 1984

Apologies to Rob Leonard, this defense has performed better than I've seen in awhile. This teams improvement thus far is a testament to great coaching.

Raiders left points on the field too. This is looking like it could be a disastrous season for the Chargers. The Cardinals who beat them week 1 got killed by seahawks and their backup qb

I couldn't watch the game. Besides the win, did they look like a real team?

I hope Stukes is ok. I don't think he's had a concussion before, so really hoping it was on the low end of the damage scale and he's able to bounce back.

Palo Mao is terrible. Mainly just want Stukes to be ok.

oops wrong thread!!

How I feel. I Posted this in the game thread so copied and pasted here

This is a well coached team. They never quit even when momentum swing to the dischargers. A lot and I mean a lot to clean up but well coached with a lot of fight.

It was a really sloppy game overall with stupid penalty and drops on both sides but the Raiders got the win and that is matters. What I am happy about is that two games in. We looks like a professional football team.

1 White has a big game and should get his flowers but let’s see what he does the rest of the year.

2 Kirk had another good game. There is no need to rush Fernando in.

3 Dean is already our defensive MvP but Masses gets the game ball and a start next week. Good job rookie.

4 The broadcasters were annoying. It was all about the chargers until the end.

5 Jeanty would be getting a lot more hate if we had lost. I get bad games happen but Klint’s offense needs his pass catching back to you know catch the ball.

PROS:

-Klint Kubiak wasn't perfect, but he went toe-to-toe with Harbaugh in his house and didn't blink. That has to count for something.
-The Raiders WR core stepped up when needed against a team selling out against the run.
-Kirk Cousins is a savy veteran that made all the right reads under immense Charger pressure. He consistently made the Chargers pay for keying on Jeanty. If not for drops, Kirk would have 100+ more yards.
-If Kirk Cousins can play within himself and keep doing methodical surgery against opposing defenses, he will be our new Rich Gannon.
-The Raiders defense is showing the NFL they are legit. They went against a better team and still held their own.
-Nakobe Dean is an elite LB, the only thing holding him back is health.
-Koonce had a much better game against a much better tackle. That's a great sign going forward.
-Cody White should take Benson's spot. He deserves it, and quite frankly, is the better receiver right now.
-Tre Tucker had himself a WR1 type game. That contested catch in bracketed coverage was exceptional.
-Masses might have arrived. He's making a strong case for CB1.
-Whether some Raider fans want to believe it or not, the Raiders ARE the most talented team in the division on paper. It should be the Raiders and Chiefs for the top spot.

CONS:

-Jeanty had his worse game as a pro. He's young, so one game doesn't define him, but his play made that game closer than it should have been.
-Harbaugh gave the other 31 teams the blueprint to completely shut Jeanty down. It'll be interesting to see what the Saints and Chiefs do with this information.
-Mike Washington should have gotten more carries, especially when it's obvious that Jeanty hasn't been playing at 100%.
-Without Bowers, boy does this Raiders offense look pedestrian at times. We need him back ASAP.
-Our offensive line, quite frankly, did not look as good against the Chargers. Let's see what they do against the Saints.
-They say it's better to be lucky than good. The Raiders definitely benefitted from some luck against the Chargers.

Guessing we drop a couple spots in the power rankings after this win
