    So much for Brees breaking his finger-licking habit.

    That was a good looking Raider drive.

    $350,000 fines between teams and coaches for not wearing masks on Sunday. And three teams got hit.

    So we have a tackle that we drafted on the bench, while our undrafted guard plays tackle..

    Then our starting guard gets injured and we keep our guard out wide and plug in another UDFA at guard.

    How shit must Brandon Parker be?

    Coaches tonight might want to check their twitter at half time to see this news, cause I don't think either of them have a mask on either. Could be an expensive Monday for them.

    Gruden has it on around his chin. I think Peyton is medically exempt.

    This is some vintage Saints defense where they don't cover anybody unless they get a penalty doing it.

    I don't know about Payton's exemption, but he did already have Covid.

    The Raiders of yesteryear would have botched this goal line exchange. Whatever you say of Gruden, he;s got the Raiders tracking the right way offensively.

    Derekk Carr is kinda awful though. Like, Andy Dalton like. Not bad enough to outright lose you games, but not good enough to win you them without excellent playcalling and supporting cast either.

    The last time we played the Saints was when Del Rio called for a 2pt conversion to avoid overtime and made it.

    As for Carr, he's very much a manager, not a dynamic game winner.

    If the rules say that was a personal foul, the rule is absurd.

    Carr frankly took over from Dalton as the QB that is exactly good enough to not lose you games but also never win you games. Can't win a Super Bowl with him, but won't be bad enough to replace him with a high pick.

    It's supposed to be forceable contact which this clearly wasn't.


    Also, Raiders already used 2 timeouts in the 3rd Q. Not exactly great when you still have more than a full Q to go. Also challenges.

    Gruden is terrible at challenges, they're wasted timeouts anyway.

    Two fourth down conversions.

    Saints with some pathetic defense this game. Also leading the league in penalty yards, really sad.

    Yeah, I didn't catch last week's game, but they have NOT looked good at all tonight, so not sure if it;s just a 1 week blip or a more serious matter.

    Believing the hype without earning it this year I guess. Brees accuracy has not been there the first two games. The defense is getting torched through the air and tons of penalties on top of it.

    Figures the game ends on a PI. The fuck was he thinking.

    Quite ballsy to kick that field goal there, a miss would have gifted overtime.

    The faith Gruden has in Carlson to make that...

    Or lack of faith in Guenther's defence.

    Considering how things went in the NFL this week, at least we got out of there without any major injuries.
