2016 Oakland Raiders Thread - Page 4

I honestly believe the Defense will get a huge Boost once Mario Edwards Jr returns from the IR. It will be a domino affect...Khalil Mack will start getting to the QBs (instead of being a few seconds too late), the opposing teams QB will have less time to throw, etc.etc.

This D needs to start tightening things up. I know they forced 4 turnovers but damn they give up a lot of big plays. They really need to start getting a better pass rush going.

It is crazy how much Mack is held without any calls.

I really think they can win the next 3 games and that would be huge going into a game with Denver

zachtruitt · 10-16-2016, 12:48 PM

Let's go! This could be a tough game today. I think with bad weather in the forecast it's going to come down to interior play and who can run the ball well.

silverandblack · 10-16-2016, 01:09 PM

Today is a huge game for this team. If they pull it out today the next two games are games they should win so they have a real shot at 7-1.

silverandblack · 10-16-2016, 04:13 PM

Man it would be nice if the D would stop giving up 30+ yard plays. They give up so many big plays its unreal

IronMonkey415 · 10-16-2016, 04:15 PM

Big defense play for the Raiders.

IronMonkey415 · 10-16-2016, 04:19 PM

Cooper 9 for 9.

He caught everything thrown his way.

silverandblack · 10-16-2016, 05:41 PM

This team has some real work to do to be a real contender. All that money spent on the D was a freaking waste

What happened today? Saw they lost by 16 and only scored 10 points.

Same crap from the D. Gave up big plays. Seemed like every run KC had went for 6 or 7 and the D just couldnt stop them. Two turnovers didnt help but the Offense didnt come through and bail them out like they have all year.

Two games they should win coming up so hopefully they get this figured out.

The offense is going to need to score 30+ a game to even be in games at this rate

Jackg1980 · 10-16-2016, 08:23 PM

They can't stop the run thru the middle.

zachtruitt · 10-16-2016, 09:09 PM

KC gashed this interior defense on the ground. Routine runs went for 10 yards all day. They have to get it fixed or it's going to be a loooooooooong season.

They cant stop anything. They give up huge pass play after huge pass play too. Its ridiculous with the talent they have. How they cant generate a real pass rush is beyond me

Rabs · 10-17-2016, 08:59 PM

Well as bad as their defense has been (I never get to see their games since I live in FL) it's still nice they are 4-2.

socal805 · 10-18-2016, 11:55 AM

I'm I the only one who takes a Raiders loss hard and refuses to watch any sports channel or read any Raider related stories and/or blogs? I even made sure not to read any comments on this thread...smh.

They need to get a quality safety. That guy they were playing that was small in size, just could not hack it. I know Bacarri Rambo is a FA, they need a run stuffer up the middle as well. Run was ineffective 1st and 2nd down then the desperation throw to try to get the first. Throw the ball on first down more, don't be so predictable.

silverandblack · 10-18-2016, 01:45 PM

Obviously the weather played a big part in this game for the offense and I think Murray is a much bigger part of this team then people think but man do they need to fix the D.

They have so much talent on defense so im starting to think its a coaching issue.Del Rio needs to take over the play calling

zachtruitt · 10-21-2016, 10:47 AM

Another East Coast game on the docket. A solid game on both sides of the ball would be nice to see. 5-2 would look whole lot better than 4-3.

cnewby · 10-21-2016, 11:05 AM

Murray back this week. does he get the start?

If he is good to go then he absolutely starts. Last weeks game showed how much he is needed at this point.

These next two games are games a good team needs to win so hopefully they step up and win them both. Going into the 1st Broncos game at 6-2 would be huge.

I think Carr will light it up this week and hopefully the D can start to show up.

bkz81 · 10-21-2016, 11:31 PM

Hopefully Mario Edwards suits up this week.

He cant play until after week 8. He can come back to practice after week 6. They said he was running on the sidelines this week at practice which is a good sign.

Well per league rules he can come back after week 8 so if he is healthy and ready to go there is no way he doesn't play week 9 against the Broncos. That will be a huge game for this team.

These next two weeks are must wins in my opinion. They are two games they should win and after these two games the schedule gets very tough.

bkz81 · 10-22-2016, 02:29 PM

Wow, thanks for the info, earlier in the season I kept reading about it coming back from for week 6. Guess that was a bunch of bull.
