Will the raiders fall flat on their face?

I'm buying

Them falling on their face

Defense stinks
Carr a weee bit overhyped IMO
Asking a lot of Lynch, who wasn't all that good his last season in Sea

I buy them as a playoff contender max

If 10-6 gets them in the playoffs then I am in as well. I'll be surprised if they win 11 or more.

They also have the great equalizer for a head coach. Jack Del Rio

Carr did a great job of pulling some wins out of Del Rio's ass last year. Let's see if he can do it again.

Never trust a coach that doesnt wear a headset

Fall flat? They weren't that good to begin with.

Defense gets things done. And they still don't have one.

Do you mean WR or their whole team?

Without Crabtree and Cooper, Carr is garbage and that's what has turned this radiers' offense.

So you are going with "without his top two receivers, that QB sucks"? Ground breaking

I doubt it. If Carr does not get injured they probably would have made it to the AFC championship. They have a good young core there.

How would they have made it to the AFC Championship game? Because you assume they would beat Denver the last game? Carr had no TDs in the first game. Oakland was certainly not winning in NE in divisional and Pittsburgh would not have made things easy, as they beat a team who won a playoff game the previous season and lost a close one to NE. Experience.

The raiders are not even a top 15 defense, was not in last year's case a top 10 running offense(no I'm not talking about TDs I'm talking about yards), has subpar TE play......Cooper and Crabtree keep that team afloat. Yes, Carr going down hurts, but Cooper and Crabtree is even worse.

And Carr is not elite yet.......he's had 5 TDs in five division games last year.

Rate my post BS because you think Carr would still win games for the raiders with DHB, Moore, Holmes, and Streater at WR.
