Its bad enough that the Raiders won just 2 games last year,Now they are already trash talking thier first opponent and in particular Ex-Bronco Tatum Bell by practicing a fumble recovery drill and calling it the 'Tatum Bell Drill'.
It would be considered more understanding if Bell was still on the hated rival Broncos but now he is a Lion and this probably makes for some good bulletin board material for Tatum and the O-Line.
Apparently Kiffin either encourages stupid stuff whiuch in turn could backfire and make opponents have more anger and motivation or he is losing control of the discipline of the team before week 1 even begins.
The Raiders are not a team that should trash talk and make opponents pissed off - They are not a good enough team across the board to back it up.
I hope Tatum rushes for 150 yards and catches another 50 yards passing tomorrow and NO fumbles.
