    Man Carr is one of the worst clock management guys in the game. He has the skills and the players to do it.

    That should of been a PI on that deep pass. Kind of loved the play call though

    What happened to Olson? He can't gameplan.

    6-6. A totally unremarkable team, again.

    Man im telling you while the game planning isn't exceptional this is all execution IMO. I honestly think Marcus would thrive with this offense. I love DC but he doesnt get it done.

    Raiders/Washington
    I watch it again so you don't have to.

    The Raiders just looked awful on their first defensive series. Poor tackling. Horrible coverage. Looked like Moehrig blew coverage twice, but I'm not sure they were his assignments.

    Washington really exploited the perimeter. This is something Andy Reid exposed about the Raiders' defense - get a blocker and a ball carrier in the flat, and it's chunk after chunk.

    Early on, only Renfrow was making plays. But we're starting to see some of the elusiveness of Jacobs return.

    I watched that play where Crosby was flagged for roughing. There's no way he could be called for the hit, so it must have been that he threw his weight on the QB. That's a soft call, as Maxx said.

    Carlson for team MVP?

    Second half
    Brandon Parker - not a starting caliber player in the NFL.

    Wow. Other than Crosby, I don't know what the DL was doing. Really disappointing performance.

    Huge catch from Moreau. It's easy to forget that the Raiders were playing without their WR1 (arrested) and TE1 (Waller).

    The fact that Crosby's "roughing" was the same as the one 95 from Washington did to Carr is ridiculous.

    Gotta talk about clock management with this team. It's 4:35 left, Raiders just picked up a first on Jacobs's awesome run and hurdle. You're down 2.

    Raiders should have had more time to work with. I'm not thrilled with how Bisaccia manages the clock.

    Man. I think that was a PI on the Zay Jones heave with :22 left.

    Raiders' remaining schedule
    @KC Probably 9-point dogs
    -ELO has Chiefs -10.5 (18%)

    @Cleveland 3-point dogs
    -ELO has Browns -5 (32%)

    Broncos 2-point dogs
    -ELO has Raiders -0.5 (52%)

    @Indianapolis 6-point dogs
    -ELO has Colts -8.5 (23%)

    Chargers 5-point dogs
    -ELO has Chargers -3 (39%)

    Is a 6-11 season possible? Yup.
    8-9 more likely.
    Problem: neither one makes the playoffs. Either one is a falling off from last season.

    vs. KC
    Chiefs have been unstoppable since their loss to Tennessee on 10/24. They have not surrendered more than 17 points, have held three opponents to single digits, and have won their last three games by double digits.

    What went wrong: Last time vs. KC, the Raiders forced one TO, surrendered 516 yards, rushed for just 50, and had two TOs.

    Game Plan: Gotta score points. Gotta create turnovers.

    KC's D is susceptible to the run.
    Let's see Zay Jones throw a pass.
    Work the middle seam. Then hit screens.
    Throw long and force DBs to interfere.
    On D, absolutely have to keep outside containt and put pressure on Mahomes.

    Josh Jacobs, by four team games:

    First four games of the season:
    2 games
    23-74, 2 TD
    7 targets
    6 receptions, 23 yards
    14.5 touches per game
    48.5 yards per game
    0.5 TD per game

    Next four:
    4 games
    50-206, 3 TD
    13 targets
    12-106
    15.5 touches per game
    78.0 yards per game
    0.75 TD per game

    Next four:
    4 games
    51-192, 2 TD
    25 targets
    21-107
    18.0 touches per game
    74.8 yards per game
    0.5 TD per game

    He's getting involved more, which is nice. But he's not exactly doing a ton with those touches. Not super productive.

    Not a good start. Down 7 before the Chiefs' O even touches the ball.

    So far, the Raiders have run the ball poorly, thrown it worse, and have a TO.

    I'd give their O an F so far. Only uphill from here.

    I wont be on for this game but came in to say I have ZERO faith in us this game. After the fumble for a TD I am even more so no faithful. Thought defense did just force the punt.

    Hope to come back and be wrong.

    Have a good one. I'll be in and out - doing some house renovation.

    Defense gave the O a chance to make it equal.

    Mariota in for snaps.
    Edwards holds.
    Simpson down.

    What a tragedy.

    Good drive start - Parker can't stop a bullrush (says Lincoln Kennedy). Carr has been sacked three times on three possessions.

    This roster has holes at so many spots. Just on O:
    WR1
    OT
    RB
