Wade Phillips got him that SB ring, and Wade Phillips only.

With a horrific offense. Wade won that SB. Kubiak had little to do with it.

The raiders offense is gonna be a really good unit. If they can get another rb in yhe draft and another te, it's gonna be interesting to see if carr makes the next jump against good defenses.

If he does, yeah, I think they're right there with the chiefs, maybe better.

Nah dude, that Superbowl was all Peyton in the sunset, Papa John $ for the NFL, and a tribute to the great "company man" Pat Bowlen. Elway will be quick to betray his buddy Gary when things go south.... and soon.

The couldn't beat us once last year without Houston and Charles.

Carr is being extremely overrated by the media.

Jack Del Rio is terrible.

They lost the QB of their defense in Charles Woodson.

I just don't see them being better than a healthy Chiefs team.

They also had a good free agency period though.

Carr feasted on bad and average teams and struggled against good defenses. If he takes the next step, theyll be tough.

I don't think they're better right now.

But mack is an all pro defensive player of the year type guy, with Aldon accross from him and the rest they've added, it's a defense that could be very good as well.

Last year is last year. They beat us in 2014 so things can change.

Their OL is top 5, they have an all-world pass rusher with another added FA. Their secondary got a legit top 10 CB from us and they have as good of a young QB/WR as you can ask for.

They are going to absolutely be right there with us and it wouldnt surprise me at all if we split with them this season.

Smith was an unrestricted free agent, but there wasn’t much of a hurry to sign him since he’s suspended for a year and won’t be eligible for reinstatement until November.

Can't agree with Smith being a top 10 corner. Maybe im 2014 sure, but not now.

Lol at knomo acting like Kubiak is a good HC. Any HC could've have won that super bowl that was gift wrapped for Peyton

Somebody please take the lead paint chips away from donkboy.

Raiders est. cap space: $17-18M. If they get Nelson at a bargain basement price.... shame on Dorsey for not having a visit scheduled.

And what you forget is that the player has to want to be there. That is the benefit of FA for the player - they can choose.

Nelson already knows Berry/Parker are the starters in KC.
He could start in Oakland and could likely still get "starter money" on a short-term deal.

It's difficult for me to get worked up over a 33 year old secondary player.

But he's perfect for the Raiders: Old and slow.

Parker would not be the starter if Nelson was signed. Fact is, it would have been smart to have the best FA safety come in for a visit. No 2 ways about it.
