Do we have a chance?

I don’t know what the raiders will do against the Colts; but it will be a closer game than it was with Washington and Chargers….
We are getting better but gotta remember; we are starting at rock bottom;

All that is correct but the step back has to be Miller's injury.

Colts by 90.

Now that our resident Chiefs fan has weighed in, what does everyone else think?

You never know. Defense plays like they did last Sunday, Geno takes care of the football and Jeany has an another strong outing. A loss is not preordained but there is a lot to clean up on offense starting with the QB.

Bowers made some nice catches in the 4th quarter against the Bears. Our best offensive player needs to be better utilized.

It's difficult for Kelly to capitalize on matchups when the QB is throwing pics. Sounds like Pete is going to let Geno work through his struggles. Given the alternatives on the bench it's probably for the best. QB controversies are never a good thing. As Madden used to say if you have two then you don't have one.

Well shit. It’s starting to look like Ol’ man Carroll is gonna play a vet over the slew of rooks we picked up during the offseason/draft. Like Cappa over JPJ. No good.

Even with total pie-in-the-sky optimism you know this isn’t a playoff winning team. Being playoff-making is too glass-half-full IMO.

In other words. Call up the rooks. All of them. Give them reps. There are no good losses, so fuckin’ give them some f[raiders_icon]cking game time experience. Personally, I wanna see “Mountain Man” in there.

I’d rather lose and be set up for great draft picks using guys that we may want to keep around, then lose with some useless vets who won’t even be around more than 2 years.

We couldn't beat a hobbled Washington team, and we couldn't beat a lowly Bears team; no way we beat the Colts, who are the second-best team on our schedule so far.

No what the Raiders need is a quarterback (and new ownership) so that we can actually have hope this offseason, but see Mark said he was gonna bring Tom in to pick our next quarterback along with his puppet. Since neither of them can scout, they couldn’t give up a couple 3rd round picks to go get Jaxson Dart. Imagine how bad Giants fans feel for not having a 3rd round pick this upcoming draft.

Then again Com-Pete has anointed Geno has a HOF quarterback & makes his, well now, best offensive lineman compete for his position so Dart would ride the bench all season at this place.

Forsythe/Cappa vs a quarterback we could’ve had this past offseason over Geno? Wonder if they’ll be double digit favorites at the end of the week?

Only thing I’m contemplating right now is to take Indiana Jones team or Arizona in my survival league.

Unfortunately nothing we can do about QB this year.

I wanted us to trade back into the first to get Dart. We know what happened.

I’ve been looking at it a ton, for next year. It comes down to us and the Jets who need a qb yesterday. Others are in the mix but not as likely.

We don't even have one QB.

Complete trash.

This is a bit extreme. I think we will be 1-6 at that point.
