Raiders @ Texans Playoff Thread

[luuked]

Jags need to bring in an offensive coach. I think Bortles has the tools, he needs coaching, which was just flatout awful. I dont think hes been bad enough to give up on after only 3 years. Depends on what the future staff thinks ultimately though, And right now yes the afc south is porbably a better spot, Especially because The chiefs and raiders should probably be good, and the chargers are probably a just a coach away too

Bortles's issue is his attitude. He had bad mechanics in the first few seasons until he worked out with Tom House 2 years ago in the offseason. This was followed by a pretty good season and him thinking that he has made it and doesn't need to work on those mechanics which resulted in a historic regression and maybe the worst throwing motion/release in the NFL since Tebow...

He held his own team hostage over this situation which is a pretty good reason for the Jags to get another QB this offseason because you can't have one player screwing your entire season over twice in a row.

He showed he has it in him but his attitude is key..

That was a great kick and coverage. They really needed to get a great return though.

Oakland should score here by mistake almost. Accidental offense is a real thing.

Texans are allowing Oakland to hang around.....Oakland needs to capitalize

 

[AtomicDawg]

There is a couple that I am good friends with that are both big Raiders fans, I often watch games with. Until two weeks ago they were, for good reason, very excited about this season.

I purposely avoided watching the game with them today, in case it turned out like it has thus far.

Closest analogy I can think of is Pats in 2009, except that New England team before the Welker injury was nowhere near as good as Oakland was before the Carr injury. I guess it's probably more on par with the '78 Patriots with the Fairbanks-Sullivan fiasco heading into the playoffs.

It all come down to coaching. If you're down to the 3D string QB who to do trust more?

 

[TomPatriot]

Roberts open.

 

[Todd Bradley]

This game will live in infamy as the "3 & Out Bowl"

 

[sb1]

Bad drop

 

[BobDigital]

Just dropped it.

 

[TomPatriot]

Cooper held, still should catch that

 

[Foxypats]

Gruden needs to stop talking !!!

 

[FreeTedWilliams]

Cooper is absolutely wasted (even when Carr was in there) in this offense.

 

[Jadex9]

Has a team had this bad a case of the dropsies ever? I've never seen a team drop so many passes ever.

 

[Ross12]

Is this seriously a playoff game?

This is good for me. So I'm not complaining.

[BobDigital]

Our children will say "all those 3 and outs? That must have been a game with a mighty blizzard!" and we will answer "no, it was in a dome..." and they will say "what?"

 

[Uptown]

Still no a threat

I know...just sayin'
