We should win. Of course, the Raiders have been playing a lot better. Even beating them isn't a sure thing.Quote:

What else can you say? You get it and see what happens.
Eh, I get pissy after repeated bonehead plays. When I get to Scotland, buy me a kilt and a pint we'll call it even.Quote:

He's fielding the best team he has, he expects them to go out and do their job. They boned it. They deserve the blame.
Yeah Colts.....
Pint and a whiskey and you've got a deal!Quote:

That's the problem. It's not the talent that's the problem. We shoot ourselves in the foot, over and over and over again. Ray knocking the crap out of Chad 85. Haushka costing us two games. Clayton dropping a fourth down pass against the Pats. Mason dropping an easy TD against the Squeelers that would've won us the game.Quote:

No one is going to stop pulling for them. But it's a stretch to think this team is going to turn on some switch and become dominant once the playoffs start.Quote:

I'm tired of watching this team implode. TIRED of it. Aren't you?
I'll take benching Walker and Cousins. Some mistakes I can forgive. Mason's drop is one of them because he makes so many plays to make up for it. Walker, a CB, almost single handidly lost us the game today. Cousins is a back-up tackle so we're thin at the posistion anyway.Quote:

Not because of what happened but because it wasted time we could possibly have used if we had held them.
Absolutely... costs me like $20 just to watch them implode... I'm thinking about asking Boscotti for a refund for Directv NFL package. But damn it, when this team is hot, they are shit hot!!!Quote:
