You're raging man

just excited for the new season and with all the roster movement and how different things are being done now in this new era...I guess at times my enthusiasm can become annoying...

BTW, I've not been here as long as others, what's the significance of your avatar/profile picture, been meaning to ask you for a while...?

I wasn't annoyed. I just thought it was a bit more energetic than normal

Not a Raider hater, no. An opponent destroyer, yes..

That was the Chargers that they embarrassed 63- 21 last year. His team, his players even though he was not a Charger at the time.

That and the fact that NO opponent is "just another game". This one is special on several counts, Div opponent, 1st game ever for Harbaugh's Chargers, Pierce enjoyed rubbing salt in the wound after thrashing the Chargers on 12/14/23.

Harbaugh is an emotional HC who cares about his players, including those who played in the last LVR game and lost badly.

Rub their nose in it with unnecessary points to win?

Nah, that just gives them more motivation to win the next game in their stadium.

Keep it professional.

Like Antonio Pierce saying he wanted 70? Professional like that?

We went from fretting over Herbert's foot to fretting over Bosa's hand.

It’s hilarious reading some posts that say our run game is going to be unstoppable or whatever.

Did any of you listen to Greg Roman’s last press conference?

He said he didn’t know what to expect in the first game and it takes adjustments over a few games to figure out how to best utilize players and have the offense gel together.

First few games are a lot of trial and error, and exponentially so when you have an entire new group of players trying to execute a new playbook.

Yes, the run game should be markedly improved this season considering the talent upgrade, but be patient if it isn’t in mid season form coming out of the gate.

Same for the route running and aerial attack.

the sad part is the raiders did not rub it in.... the Chargers and Stick were just that inept.... even raiders backups were scoring at will..... lol

BUT I thank every raider fan for raiders embarrassing a badly managed chargers team so much that Spanos was finally wiilling to open his wallet and HIRE A REAL NFL COACH!!!

How do you know it isn't going to be?

If you're referring to my post, I said we'll run the ball successfully. Reason being this isn't Roman's first circus and not his first game with these RBs C or TEs. That and he's never been unsuccessful at running. Will they get better? almost certainly but vs a low ranking run D won't hurt in game 1.
You say Roman didn't announce that he intends to run the ball successfully vs LVR? Shocking. Absolutely shocking I say.
