[PhilaBoltster]

Raiders 24-20.

[wu-dai clan]

The Chargers are well prepared.

Let the Raiders pretend that 2023 G17 63-21 will affect us just like 2022 Jags AFCWG 31-30.

I anticipate a close game.

31-28 Chargers.

The Raiders star players are some of the best players we will see all season.
Maxx/Wilkins.
Adams/Bowers.
The Chargers team football will prevail.

Agree the score may be fairly close...I think our O will take a few games to get in sync...our D looks pretty strong, though...23-17 Chargers...

Is Gardner Minshew better than D. Carr? Is Zamir White as good as Josh Jacobs?

is it Critty who always says it's a QB league?

Yes, no.

Chargers D will hold well against a weak Taiders O line.

Chargers O I'm not sure.

Perhaps a game similar to at New England last year.

6-0 Chargers

It's Raiders vs. Chargers.....ANYTHING can, and probably will, happen.

Go Bolts!

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.

Roman said he was going to be transparent and then he opened up about how it takes a few games to gel, iron out the kinks, or whatever you want to call it.

I thought the insight he shared was very honest and realistic.

Raiders offensive situation is similar. The ability for coaches and players to make in game adjustments will give one of the teams the edge.

Staley, Lombardi, and Moore were extraordinarily poor at that which is why we squandered so many leads in the 2nd half.

Let’s see how Roman does in his first test. Can the Chargers score points in the 3rd quarter in the Harbaugh era? You want a change in culture? That would certainly demonstrate it!!

Finish stronger than you started will be the sign I’m looking for.

I agree with the Alt-Crosby matchup being key. Also will be curious watching Derwin this year. His head just wasn’t in it last season. I look forward to seeing the old Derwin again.

Honestly think this will be low scoring affair. I love what I’ve seen of our D so far. O, not so much.

12-6 Bolts.

"When a problem comes along (you must wrap it)
Before the hand pain comes along (you must wrap it)
When something's going wrong (you must wrap it)

Now wrap it - into shape
Wrap it up - get straight
Go forward - move ahead
Try to detect it - it's not too late
To wrap it - into shape
Wrap it up - get straight
Go forward - move ahead
Try to detect it - it's not too late
To wrap it well - wrap it good"

Mark Mothersbaugh wants a royalty check please........

Alt holding his own will be one of the keys to our victory that is discussed at length.
