MNF thread- Cowboys @ Raiders (no Bills stuff please)

[Fan in Chicago]

Someone tell the Raiders it's okay to tackle. Boy this is boring to watch. 

The only thing keeping me watching is the occasional shots of Dallas' cheerleaders

[TheFunPolice]

Too many Raiders primetime games 

[stuvian]

Please no more closeups of Mark Davis. I might get nightmares 

[Roundybout]

Carrol should be one and done

Indeed! Too bad, a pretty great coaching career ends this way.

Pickens is a free agent.  He is going to get paid.

Probably a future Patriot, what with all their cap space and need at WR. I hope he destroys that franchise from the inside, as he is wont to do.

He and Diggs would make things interesting 

 

If he went to the Patriots, you'd have to decide if you believe that Vrabel would be able to manage him.

With Q Williams joining Kenny Clark I personally think Dallas has the best IDL in the NFL. 

 

Their defense is pretty interesting now. They traded for Logan Wilson and tonight's the long-awaited return of LB DeMarion Overshown who was looking like a star before his catastrophic knee injury last year.

Pete Carroll really salvaged his career 

 

Pete salvaged Geno's career but possibly at the expense of his own.

 

As the years pass from that Seattle Super Bowl team, the person who's maintained his reputation is GM John Schneider.

 

Meanwhile Carroll and Russ have been tarnishing their legacies.

Are we seriously not getting the Fastest Two Minutes because of this stupid commercial for the 17th remake of Pocahontas?

Hahaha yeah. That's him. I couldn't think of his name to save my life. After this convo I don't plan to think of him again.

Meh, Carroll was running show in the old days.

 

They did have like nearly a decade of bad personnel decisions after that Super Bowl.

Pickens is a Manster !!

[FireChans]

Pickens has HoF talent and a 10 cent head

The fact that he’s not on the talk of a hot seat like some other first year coaches is maddening. I know he has a Super Bowl on his resume but he hand picked Geno, traded a relatively high pick for him and it’s not even averagely reasonable play they’ve received.

He was a stability hire to basically reset the organization. They have been a joke since Gruden. 
 

I’m sure they expected better play but this isn’t about this year or next year. It’s about becoming serious, even if they are bad and serious.

The bad personnel decisions were Pete Carroll's. Since he left Schneider's built another Super Bowl contender.

 

On the same day (March 13th) that Sam Darnold signed a free agent contract with Seattle for 3 years and $100 million, the Raiders and Carroll traded the 92nd pick overall for Geno Smith and signed him to a 2 years, $75 million contract.

 

Now I know the jury's still out on Darnold, there are times over the last two years where he's looked elite and he would have cost the Raiders less than Geno did.
