Conspiracy theory: Raiders OL let Carr get smacked around as payback for not kneeling

Link: Shock Report: NFL’s Oakland Raiders Threw Game After White QB Refused To Kneel For National Anthem

This site... I know. But in the unlikely event there’s a tiny bit of truth to this...

It seems pretty far-fetched, especially the portion about receivers intentionally dropping passes. But who knows? Maybe the other players are big fans of The Longest Yard.

Did the Raiders Throw the Game?

If true, then the NFL is truly circling the drain.

First I'm hearing of it. It sounds like a crazy conspiracy theory.

I didn't see the game but I've heard it looked a little funky . .

OK. Becuase of this thread I went and looked at the film on this game.

I don't see anyone giving up on a play. I don't see linemen half assing it.

I do see Carr hanging onto the ball for too long.

I did see Lynch trying to break out a beast mode type run.

If anyone gave up on a play to make Carr pay it wasn't a team wide effort. I'm sure.

That's tinfoil hat level paranoid

 

[TB12TheGoat]

RAIders fans said it's Osemele and Hudson. Hudson ****ed up the snap 4 times too

 

[luuked]

What a bunch of crap. That is flat earth level stuff.

 

[WhoaDirty]

I may be wrong, but I thought Carr was sitting for the anthem. I only recall because he was mouthing words, but not the anthem lyrics and I thought it was weird that he was praying during the anthem.

 

[Tony2046]

If anyone wants me to post a video of any series or downs I can.

I went through the condensed version of the game and didn't see anything suspicious.

 

[Tony2046]

OK. Second time through the game and I really don't see anything.

I do see that Carr sucked and it had nothing to do with pressure. His interceptions, for example, were on plays in which he had plenty of time in the pocket.

I'm calling bull **** on this story.

Maybe if it was week 11 and your team was 0-11 with no chance to get to the post season it MIGHT be considered, but too early in the season and definitely a team with payoff aspirations.

Spoiler: Helloooooo

"The Daily Sheeple"???? Based on a "story" from the "Armstrong and Getty Radio" show???

Come on, you can do better than that... fake news??

Do you think the Raiders coaches might have noticed after they watched the game films??

 

[Uptown]

Not saying it’s true, but it’s plausible. Things like this have happened before.

 

[Clonamery]

Any Given Sunday result. Been a few this year. Moving on.

[jah]

Lmao

 

[Huckleberry1]

One thing is certain


There's no kneeling in North Korea

 

[Simpelton]

The only thing making me give this story any credence at all is the fact that this is the Raiders we're talking about -- one of the more dysfunctional organizations in the NFL in recent history. That said I think this is a bridge too far, even for that organization.
