MILLIONS of businesses give away their products for free in exchange for positive feedback and marketing. McAfees show portrays the nfl in a positive light 99.99a% of the time. i get what you’re saying and I agree that they deserve to get paid….and they are. 4M a year. But the nfl would rather make more money at the expense of one of their biggest supporters. Eager to see how the show attacks this.

👍🏻 Been watching him every day since he started on YT. The absolute best, without peer imo. I only watch clips of other talk shows since being spoiled by Pat. I watch his show nearly every m-f

Seriously?

💯 we’ll eventually run into a brick wall, but if done right, could only really only affect us terribly in one season……while being one of the top 3-5 contenders for a decade

Ok, sorry. I thought you we insinuating that we can’t sign anyone because we don’t have the cap room.

If we don’t make a trade, I think Duke would be our lead back if Motor went down. We had 2M cap room to start last offseason. We signed Von Miller, Daquan Jones, Tim Settle, Jordan Phillips, Shaq Lawson, Saffold, Quessenberry, Crowder, Howard and Mckenzie.

It’s 2022- shut your mouth or risk getting shot. I’d do exactly the same thing I’d do if it were a Joe Schmo. Nothing. The only other option we really have is to call the cops. Anything else could get you killed. People shooting each other for the stupidest things nowadays.

Seriously. He’s his biggest obstacle in becoming a Hall of Famer. If we can pull off 2-3 titles and he keeps playing like this- he’s got a shot.

He’s playing very well. If he played like this the last 2 years, we’d have given him an extension already. I feel it’s 50-50 that he’s back. After this season, his price tag will have gone up. Maybe too much to pay

🤷🏻‍♂️

He hasn’t been elite in a long time. Obj was a very good wr in the nfccg. Without him playing in that game, I think the niners would’ve won the NFC. He was a difference maker. As he was in the super bowl until he got hurt .

They ran because they wanted to preserve their QB. If they passed more, he probably would’ve been broken in half. Our DL pass rush was wrecking their OL

My point: our initial depth was better than everyone thought. We lost our #4 and #5 wr for several weeks. Our #2 wr missed a game and was banged for parts of 2 others. And we still have the top passing game. Not a top passing game. THE top passing game. sure, we could maximize our chance of winning this year at the expense of sustained success. We may do that. We may not. Either way- it’s not necessary to win a title. And if we do mortgage more of the future for a increased chance this year, a Lombardi isn’t guaranteed. It’s a crapshoot either way. A move this year might help us. It could also cost us.

Meanwhile, we have the league best passing offense

I take it this would be a good thing? Maybe available for the playoffs?

Stop looking at stats. Watch the film. I’ve watched almost every raider game since they moved to Vegas. He’s a much more powerful and explosive back this year compared to the last two. He was better as a rookie than in year 2 and 3. He’s running with more aggression this year. The raiders wouldn’t even pick up his 5th year option. He was that good. He focused on becoming a star so he could get paid. He will. But what does he stay in his focused state long term?

A 2nd and a 5th isn’t bad as long as the team can afford to keep the player for at least 2-3 years. I don’t know how many sure fire talents we’ll be able to afford long term. Seems like a year where we trade day 3 picks for depth. but I wouldn’t be surprised if he landed big fish as long as he doesn’t overpay,

I was waiting for this epic thread.

Ralph is cheap

Being the RB guru that you are, you should know, just by watching him run this year that Jacobs is a much improved runner.. Physically, he’s on another level compared to his previous 3 season. I’ve seen several local interviews with him. When the raiders declined his 5th year option, it clicked with him. He realized he was going to be another Melvin gordon if he didn’t take his game to another level. He did that by dedication and hard work in the weight room. He changed his diet. He sacrificed. He didn’t put in the sacrifice during his first 3 years. You can think it’s mcdaniels, but you’re wrong. The biggest difference in his performance has been the hard work he finally put in. He’s one of the worst safeties in the nfl and, imo, the exact kind of safety McFrazier wants no part of. Abrams is just a heat seeking missile with no regard to his peers or his own safety.

💯 huh? And if you’re wrong, you leave forever?

Or how about how the raiders declined his 5th year option….. which is one of the major reasons why RBs are a bad choice in the first. It took jacobs 4 years to play like a first round pick.

When discussing Josh jacobs, why not discuss his stat line from yesterday? 😉 😘

The raider locker room would implode if they trade Jacobs- I’d love to trade a 2nd for him (because of the 3rd rd comp pick we’d get when we don’t resign him), I just don’t see them pulling the trigger on it.

A true difference maker at the RB position
