This looks about right except Jackson-Powers is going to be the first fill-in for LG or Center if there is an injury or poor play on the O-line. Dude is a beast.

We have two waves now of roster cuts for the Raiders; the big wave of cuts to get down to the initial 53-man roster. And the second small wave after the waiver claims came in. Now that those are behind us, let's take a look at what the Raiders depth chart figures to look…

Your top pick has some injury issues that have materialized before the opener.

The Raidas had a tough time against the Chargers. The offense struggled a bunch and the D was just a bit out of sync.

The offense (specifically the running game) struggled while the defense played good overall....except the run defense still sucks.

How did big boy Christian do at DT yesterday? Was he worth the money??

He played alright. He was able to draw some attention his way and that led to Crosby getting into the offensive backfield. Crosby had 5 tackles (2 solo), 1 sack, 1 TFL and 3 QB hits while Wilkins had 5 tackles (4 solo).

1st game, Retro.

The Chargers OL.was focused on him, allowing Crosby to get into the backfield. The opposing team has to pick their poison with our DL.

Malcom Koonce and Tyree Wilson already hurt.

Damn it.

 

[Retroram52]

Yep, the injury bug is active early. Just look at the Rams!

Good read. We shall see.

Hopefully the Raidas will buy into Pierce's ideas and get on with as they now are at-risk to go a 0-2 NFL Season start.

Watching the Jets vs Titans game and only switching over to watch the Raiders on NFL Ticket if it's not what I expect.....getting our shit pushed in prison style.

So, basically I am not optimistic. LOL.

 

[DJ Fieri]

But, we still lost. They need to do this again this week to have any shot at winning...

41 teams have started 0-2 in the last 5 seasons. Only 2 made the playoffs.

Well, the Raidas are falling behind the Ravens. Not looking good.
