If we sit healthy starters I would bet money the league would come down on us. The trick would be to sub them heavily.raider_kin wrote: Tue Dec 23, 2025 7:15 am If we had a GM who was in charge (I don't believe we do) he would force Petey to sit Maxx, Jeanty, and Bowers, to save for them for next year.
If we were playing a team who might have a say in how the playoffs go the league might complain, but I can't see how either the Giants or the chefs will have any influence on the playoffs (unless the tiebreaker gets down to strength of schedule)
But Petey will not do this.
All I want for Christmas is for Doofus Bowl Cut to hand over complete personnel control to the GM. And that includes coaches.
Spoiler: won't happen. Mark is drunk on his fake basketball success.
yes, teams have lost high draft picks over stuff like thatRaidernation1979 wrote: Tue Dec 23, 2025 8:10 am If we sit healthy starters I would bet money the league would come down on us. The trick would be to sub them heavily.
Teams use that expression a lot for injured players.BoKnows81 wrote: Tue Dec 23, 2025 8:46 am I'd bet my life that the Commanders shut down Jayden Daniels. I aint buying the injury shit since he came back after. If they were in contention he'd be playing.
Even the wording they used was "shutting him down".
Yea, if they are really injured
at this time of year, if you are not dinged up somewhat you have been riding the bench.
Exactly my point though. If they were in contention, he'd be playing. There's isn't a doubt in my mind. So imo, the Raiders need to start paying some team docs to shut our guys down.

Case in point, Kolton Miller. I don't care how 'ready' he is. Shut him down and don't risk reinjuring the foot of an integral part of the offensive line. Unfortunately, I don't believe Carroll sees it that way, at all.BoKnows81 wrote: Tue Dec 23, 2025 8:55 am Exactly my point though. If they were in contention, he'd be playing.

I get it, stack the deck but I would think the league is taking a hard look at that kind of thing. Shutting down Daniels? That is living to fight another day and they are not tanking by doing that.BoKnows81 wrote: Tue Dec 23, 2025 8:55 am Exactly my point though. If they were in contention, he'd be playing.

...it should be moved to the cartoon channel....
Completely agree. Another example...Joe Burrow. I don't expect that joke of an organization to do anything different but no way I let him come back when out of playoff contention.DrDUne wrote: Tue Dec 23, 2025 9:02 am Case in point, Kolton Miller.
