Raider Nation v28: Gruden’s Grinders

[Final Rehab]

So the guy that held out last year all of a sudden decided to take one for the team, lol makes sense.
Penn got more guranteed money and more than likely will not be a Raider next year so it is not really a pay cut. Money wise this was in Penns best interest
Also, Is playing RT in the afc west really a demotion?

Yeah OK there man. Your ability to find a way to be bring negativity into a situation that like literally everyone else seems pleased with is actually impressive in a Pliney sort of way. Rock on bro.

Don't get me wrong,the Penn restructure is good for the Raiders but let's not pretend that Penn did it in the best interest of the team

He could have gotten more elsewhere to stay at LT though.

 

[Graves The Elder]

pre season can be tough to watch at times.
but it's still better than beisbol

 

[PUO3]

Fundamentals are nice. Fresh face LBs and DBs looking solid so far. Granted theyre playing cans and pretend football lol. Last year still gets roasted in preseason.

 

[PUO3]

Hurst and Hall showing pretty much everything you could hope for so far.

 

[TKing]

Feliciano with a 2nd straight week of multiple bad snaps.

Raiders gotta find room for Warren, he will for sure get snatched up by someone.

Washington can kick rocks. Warren is better.

Tough to say, aging player coming off a injury.

Coming off back to back pro bowls. Premium position. Easy one year deal elsewhere.

Iloka incoming. Good shit.

Do you think that the last two preseason games of the RAIDERS, we will see more starters play longer?

Should see a lot of the starters this week. Hardly any of them will play the last game.

We didnt see them vs the Rams because they play the Rams in week 1. They dont want to give anything away to an opponent coming up.

I know it's early, but there is no way our defense is as terrible as it was last year.

This season feels like it's going to be a disaster

Based on?

There are upgrades from every weakness.

Our best player is holding out and not even in discussions to come back. The new coach basically insulted him by saying the Raiders D was awful with him. Coach has also apparently taken over as GM. Same coach who said he wants to take the game back to "1988" at the combined.

4-12 looms imo.

Reading too much clickbait imo.

New coach’s words were selected out of an interview. (They were also entirely correct.) Gruden being some philosophy dinosuar is the most ridiculous narrative Ive seen in a long time. Amazing how hes supposedly implicating 1960s football yet every player talks about how advanced his playbook is.

Lastly, Ill be happy as all fuck to see basics like receivers catching the ball and defenders knowing their assignments. If that is 1988, so be it.

Gruden just said starters will play into the second quarter.
