Now here’s something I didn’t expect. Well, two things, actually: one, the Las Vegas Raiders starting their season at 0-3 and two, pulling the “No sh*t, Sherlock” line this quickly. But here we are. So, indulge me for a second. “We’ve been in three close games. It’s not like we’re not competitive or have an […]

One glance at the injury report and you’d think both the Las Vegas Raiders and the Tennessee Titans are battered and bruised teams stuck in the dog days of midseason. But alas, the two AFC squads—which clash this Sunday in Music City—are at the infancy of the 2022 campaign. Just two games in, both Josh

When I said the Las Vegas Raiders needed a complete team effort against the Arizona Cardinals, I didn’t mean a complete team losing effort. But hey, at least the Silver and Black did something together, no? The Raiders’ complete collapse that cratered them in an absolutely stunning 29-23 overtime loss to the visiting Cardinals is

It’s both shocking and comforting. That’s your rudimentary response and review of the Las Vegas Raiders’ Week 1 performance. It is appalling that quarterback Derek Carr threw three interceptions in the 24-19 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers this past Sunday. It’s reassuring that the Silver and Black put an emphasis on fundamentals that can

Long before the Las Vegas Raiders matched up with the Miami Dolphins on Saturday, Carmen Bricillo said it perfectly. “I think you see, like anything – I just had a meeting with them – you will see the good, bad, and ugly like an old Clint Eastwood movie,” the Raiders’ offensive line coach said during

The Eclectic Eleven. That’s about as good a name as any for the group of Las Vegas Raiders cornerbacks. That’s the 11 cornerbacks on the 90-man roster. And there’s chatter and belief that Silver and Black should add more to that mix. Poppycock! I say. There’s no need for more cornerbacks, dance with what brung

Derek Carr and Divine Deablo will be the Las Vegas Raiders’ 2022 offensive and defensive MVPs, respectively. The Raiders’ Angel and Demon will be the most valuable players on offense and defense. That statement isn’t hyperbole or grandiose runaway imagination. The Silver and Black’s quarterback and linebacker each have the football knowledge, physical make-up, guts,

Josh Jacobs the bell cow back with Keyan Drake, Brandon Bolden, and Zamir White flanking him as the backup/specialist running backs. Sounds reasonable, doesn’t it? Such is the luxury of the Las Vegas Raiders right now. While the team is knee-deep in 90-man roster territory at the early stages of the offseason, the Silver and
New Las Vegas Raiders head coach Josh McDaniels learned some hard ass lessons during his initial stint as a head coach with the Denver Broncos. From being an iron-willed dictator to cheating, he failed beyond his wildest expectations of failure during his time on the job from 2009 to 2010. He tried to be what

The Las Vegas Raiders offense should light up the opposition this season. Scratch that. The Raiders’ offense must light up the opposition this season. Anything less would be pathetic. Now, before I get into this further, I admit the offensive line is the biggest question mark. As it should. The group is slated to be
