I have no doubts that the Raiders lose in the post season, but there's one thing that's very uncertain. How can McGloin perform for 4 quarters of football with this years running game, this years passing duo + Walford/Roberts, this years offensive line, and a better performing defense than years past.

If he secures a win, I can only imagine the next two weeks will be very, very busy for him. Especially with his contract ending. His performance in his next two Raiders games can turn him into a starter for another team. You better believe he'll be doing his best.

Oh they are gonna lose in the playoffs, just curious at what point. Would be great if we could manage a playoff win.

Think that, depending on how well McGloin plays this Sunday, we may be able to beat Houston, Miami, and possibly even Pittsburgh in a playoff game. Don't see any way we bump off Kansas City and especially New England though, both of those would have been tough with Carr. But like I said, it all depends on Matt's performance.
 
So what the hell did Doug Martin do?

Colts writers and fans saying Luck would win more if he dropped his "aww shucks" demeanor, and just acted like a straight dick to his teammates when they fuck up. Weird.

Maybe that's what Wentz needs to do in order to get his receivers to start catching balls.

Media will ride him on that once Eli retires. That's all they've stuck to for the lack of success of the team over the past several years, not the lackluster defense or the roster in general.

Yes, a good QB calls out mistakes of his teammates, as well as knowing when they fuck up themselves. Look at the great QB's in history. All have crazy passion and get mad on the field at times. Even Manning. Luck has always seemed like a "Gee, golly" type of guy.

found this old post I made about McG after his first start for us.

he actually didn't play bad that year all things considered. he does have a tendency to write checks that his arm can't cash, but overall I think he is gonna surprise some people. also, to his advantage DC's don't have any recent tape to prepare for him.

Yelling and looking like a jackass has worked wonders for Philip Rivers.
 
By winning.

Words have been uttered today that have literally never been uttered before:

"My dream car is a BMW X5"

I'm still shaking my head. That's almost as bad as Browns fans dreaming to one day go 8-8.
