Long and Leno are hard to watch.
Roquan shouldn't have been out there for this game.
Incognito is still a bitch.
He chopped blocked illegally at least a half dozen times in this game. Several of them were on some of the Raiders most successful run plays.
They never really said much about...
This happened repeatedly in the first half. The announcers kept giving the Raiders run game a lot of credit, but never once said anything about the illegal blocks. By the time Eddie visibly complained about it, I'd mentioned it three or four times to the guys I was watchin the game with. And...
Daniels is a backup QB ... always has been, always will be. He can make decent passes when the plays go according to plan, but that's about it. He has little pocket awareness, and even less ability to do anything about it when the pocket isn't there or when the play goes awry. And any team that...
Not sure why Long or Roquan were in the game in the fourth quarter. Neither of them had done much of anything the entire game and both looked lost out there. Kwiatkowski has problems in coverage, but he's generally pretty good against the run. Not sure why he wasn't in there from about halftime on.
This is an extremely poorly coached team right now. It's been that way all year so far.
Mental mistakes
Penalties
Bad decision making
Lack of Effort
Questionable play calling at times
Among other things.
The prevent D has its place. The problem is generally WHEN it's used these days, by all teams.
It's not supposed to be used for the entire fourth quarter or for even a significant portion of a quarter.
It's more of a one time thing. Primarily because momentum is a very real thing in sports...
True, he probably deserves more credit.
But he practically stole the Bears defensive game plan against the Rams, so maybe he should credit them as well.
The Rams didn't learn their lessons very well apparently.
They made a lot of the same mistakes today that they made against the Bears.
In particular their offense.
As things stand now, we've faced three of the likely playoff teams in the NFC ... the Seahawks, Vikings, and Rams.
We've beaten all three of them. So I'm pretty good with where we are.
It was a pretty good win over them too.
We controlled a large portion of that game.
And while I think the Seahawks may have gotten better since that game, I'm certain that we have as well.
With about 7 mins left in the game and the Packers still within a touchdown of tying it, Tramon Williams, playing safety in place of Ha Ha Clinton-Dix, whiffed on Josh Gordon's 55 yard TD.
Wonder what Rodgers thinks about that trade ...
