I think McVay and Stafford will be dialed in and we win big. We're going to open up a can of Wayne Newton on those Vegas bitches.

I'd love to share your optimism. And its certainly possible. But right now, I have no idea. The refs having it in for Puka is starting to seem real. And they might be punishing the team for his comments last year. They absolutely need this win. How they respond will tell us a lot about this team.

Cousins was pretty pedestrian in the Falcons game against us last year. He just got 200 yards rushing from Bijan, which helped. But we just gotta have an answer for Bowers. I’m terrified at the prospect of Quentin Lake trying to cover him. They like to hit Tre Tucker over the top too.

Nakobe Dean is arguably the best blitzing off ball LB in football, but he can be got in pass coverage. They’ve lost 3 straight and are going to play hard as hell. Another couple losses and they turn the keys over to Mendoza and start trading players for picks and their season is basically over. Guys like Crosby don’t want that to happen and are gonna be going 100mph.

How many times did Washington complain last year?

My thought is there are good and bad crews and officials. It’s on tape, the NFL sees it and will start questioning the references from a Good Old Boys club that are marketing these officials for promotions. Happens at every level.

Back to the thread, how about some optimism? This could be a trap game for the Raiders. Top edge out, top two corners potentially out, starting NT out, starting LB potentially out, leading TD WR out, Raiders can’t lose. Or can they?

This is the time for the youth to prove their worth and show they were on this team for a reason.

This is a game where McVay and Stafford just have to will us to victory. The fact that we are favored by 4.5 is kinda crazy given our injuries. But it’s gonna be a dogfight. The only thing that matters is leaving with a win. Doesn’t matter how ugly it is, there are no beauty points in the standings. Just find any way possibly to have more points than the Raiders when the clock hits 0:00.

Realistically we have a superior roster even with the injuries. Superior coaches even w the bone head calls at times. We should win this game.

At this point with the rams its become a mental thing. If they can figure to pull their heads out their asses this should be a convincing win.

but we'll see...

Pound the rock this week McVay! Oline is healthy and both RBs should be fresh from the light workloads. Raiders suck against the run and the rams offense excels at it. We need to impose our will and take the crowd out of it early!

McVay always rediscovers the run when his offense is a hot pile of shit. So the run focus is coming and since we're 2-4 probably this week.

Also the Raiders being one of the worst run defense fronts means if you have Williams on your fantasy team you'd be wise to play him.

Wallace has been playing great ball so I'm not too worried about him missing another week. Im more worried about the Rams mental state.

I agree with the way Wallace is playing it definitely helps mitigate the loss of Mcduffie but at this point, Rams need all hands on deck, so it does suck to be down another elite talent
