im learning that now a days, quality of a win really does matter. We 3-1 but dont look it.

it burns my soul to say this but the only team that looks dominate is the Vikings.

Raiders looking like the SB winning Giants. Getting by with wins but wins are wins. If their D can get more solid then they can make noise in the playoffs.

Was the wife's and mine 10 year anniversary so i missed all the morning and afternoon games for the first time in my football viewing life....seemed like i didnt miss much :francis:

That Sam Bradford trade wasn't so bad after all

Adam Thielen must be kept away from Tom Brady and the Patriots by any means. White dude can ball

Marvin Lewis might need to go

Denver got legit comp in the AFC West with Oakland. I like and trust Carr a helluva lot more than Denver's QB situation

Patriots about to run train on the AFC


No they don't.

This is a very results oriented statement. What Oakland is doing is unsustainable. They've been more fortunate than anything. Almost the polar opposite of the San Diego Chargers in terms of luck. The Defense isn't good enough and they're squeaking out wins. They could just as easily be 1-4 as they are 4-1 from what I see (just as the Chargers could be as well). They're a team I'm looking to bet against in the future. (I bet the chargers +3.5 today)

Barring injury the Raiders are winning at least 10 games. The defense has a lot of new pieces that are still trying to gel, they can only get better. Add an offense that can hang with any team in the league and you have a recipe for success.

I def think they're a playoff team in the AFC this year and the offense looks good but they don't look to be on Denver's level to me.

They have a bright future tho.

Honestly I cant say you are wrong I just personally feel like Denver's QB situation is the equalizer that makes them beatable.
