In other words, they should have had a real GM a long time ago...

Something like that, I need to do more extensive research on what the hell is going on with this team, I know they made some head scratching moves in the past but damn, we need to learn. Honestly raiders looking like the warriors before this season. To Miami, my roomate who is a chargers fan was hating all day. Miami with the rookie QB C'mon now.

THAT WORKS FOR THE 49ERS. IT DOES NOT FOR THE RAIDERS. If both QB's swapped teams, I am convince the records would be identical. Palmer isnt the reason why this team is 0-2.

Raiders have a log going for them in terms of talent and some decent pieces, but the fundamentals and small things just aren't being executed. Tackling has to be a major point of emphasis for this team because letting a rookie rack up 250+ yards and 4 TDs on the ground is embarrassing.

I know it's only the lowly Chiefs and we settled for 5 Field Goals.. But Damn!!! McFadden chalking up 100 yards rushing.

Could of been more had he's ankle been in better shape and we used him as the workhorse because Goodson was only a couple of yards off being a 100yard rusher as well.

Still would prefer to lose out here and get a good draft pick. Allthough I have heard their is nothing special in this years draft.

Agreed. All the more reason to cut Palmer and let Pryor take the growing pains. Least that's the direction i'd like to head.

He does give the Raiders the best chance to win, but realistically, what's another two wins or so in a sub .500 season? I would be concerned what thr cap number would be if he did get cut though - sucks paying a guy that isn't even on the team.

But, Palmer shouldn't waste his last good years on our shitty ass team. He should go somewhere he can help win. Like the Vikings or another team that's good that needs a QB.

Only if they trade or cut Ponder, and I don't see that happening. But, stranger things have happened... Maybe he can go to Bills, that wouldn't be far fetched.

Well, McKenzie is cleaning house. He is signing all these "average" players on the defense side to short contracts. I like this strategy. He is anticipating a rough season, but he is doing it the right way. He is rebuilding this team. If the Raiders can get Sharriff Floyd or Star Lotulelei (even with his heart condition), they can really begin building this team.

The team should cut Palmer (agreeing with you guys), Cut McClain. I think Tommy Kelly can be useful with a contract deduction.

If the Chiefs take Geno Smith (which i doubt, they already have Akex Smith)

Then we gotta try and grab Luke Joeckel.

I'd be keen on trading down and getting a barrage of different picks.

CB is weak ATM for Raiders. We are gonna get destroyed. But supposedly Tawain Jones wants a positional switch & this might just suit him/us because he has got that crazy speed to stay with WR (don't know how good he agility is cause you need the hips to stay with a cutting WR)
