I’d fire the coach and replace the QB but man where do you begin after those horrible drafts?

Too soon. I'm not sure they're broken. There isn't a big playing difference between being 2-6, 6-2, or anything in-between, especially this season. Before the season I thought they were a slightly above average team with a much harder than average schedule. Some teams exceed expectations and some teams have down seasons. That said even if they were 6-2 i'd have a hard time seeing the overall roster talent being a Super Bowl contender. There isn't a standout player/position room that provides a focus or identity that contenders normally have.

Too be honest, I'd start with Derek Carr... He doesn't spread the ball around very well... Doing this causes him to force the ball into tight coverage too often resulting in incompletions... Take a look at Adams targets vs Renfro/Waller...

2022: 33% of all targets are going to Adams... Targeted 85x's out of 273 attempts...Adams has only caught 52% of the pass attempts, which means imo, the ball is being forced to him... He should be throwing it to Waller/Renfro who have a combined 53 targets resulting in 70% completions a bit more often... Renfro this year is at a 73% completion % on only 29 targets... So why isn't Carr targeting him more often this year? Waller is at 67% completion % so again, why isn't Carr sharing the rock?

2021: Renfro had 128 targets with 103 receptions... 81% completion %... They need to get Renfro more involved...

If Adams is only catching 52% and receiving over a 1/3 of all the pass attempts, they're not in manageable 2nd and 3rd downs situations too often...

I'm waiting on DJ's input, then I'll be more able to provide a solid response to the question.

Fire the GM is step 1
Hire someone who knows talent is step 2
Fire McDaniels is step 3
Hire someone who can do the job much better is step 4
Find a better QB is step 5

Raiders continuously screw up. They seriously did Rich Bisaccia dirty last year. This and their bad karma from years of fucking over their fans and cities won't let go.

Fuck the Raiders.

They did because a shiny new toy became involved.

That i think is part of the issue. If you have something that works or works most of the time............

STICK WITH IT.

Don't trash it for an Unproven Shiny new toy.

But to fix...........

I admit, I respect Carr but he's not a "Promised land guy" But IMO that's not the issue.

That Defense needs a big deep clean, expect from Crosby. Look as Chandler Jones...................

What has Chandler Jones done this year?

Their secondary is Trash

Their run d is even worse.

But haven't Waller and Renfro missed time and been hurt?

Move back to LA, hire Edwards James Olmos as coach, watch the vatos fill the stands and the parking lot jam full of low-rider Impalas with rucas in the front seats
