I’m not good at Math but Brock Bowers has more 20 yard receptions then the next 5 Tight Ends Combined
What was Kirk Cousins brought to the organization to do?
His performance and the performance of others is irrelevant.
He was brought to the team to be a bridge qb, hes a rental, he has no future here, and he won’t be here next year.
If Mendoza is ready, then he should start
The youngest roster in the league is a dumb stat. Because our starters aren’t the youngest starters in the league.
But also, there’s like just a few months from the 7th youngest to the 30th.
You can have an injury, sign a guy off the streets, and become the oldest in one move
He’s playing well for what he’s being asked to do. I don’t necessarily think he’s playing great. Not our biggest issue.
I think Fernando should be playing. He’s smart, he’s got a ton of talent. And I think if this is truly a rebuild, all the young guys should play.
I don’t get the narrative that Mendoza will get hurt or mentally damaged if he plays.
Is he 8 years old trying to play on a 12u team?
Raider fans keep bringing up Brady and Montana and Rogers as an example of people who didn’t start their rookie year.
But that really hasn’t been the way the best quarterbacks have developed over the last 15. Since rookie cap.
NFL has changed. QBs are more ready

Raiders aren't facing league-high man coverage because of the WRs
this is far more Cousins related + lack of a run game
Tucker & Nailor both among league leaders in separation vs. man
Cousins more adept at picking apart zones + he's not a run threat
Through seven weeks, the #Raiders are facing man coverage at the third-highest rate in the league on all downs (29.1%) and on third down (42.9%), too.
League average man coverage usage:
- All downs = 24%
- 3rd downs = 34.8%
Per Sumer Sports.
Would you rather have Nelson at Guard for 4 years or a Guard from Utah State that will start in 5 games 3 years from now and then not resign with team?
Basically it’s a choice between a hall of Famer and a guaranteed star or the next Charles Grant.
That’s the 3rd round
I’m sure he’ll add to his TD total late in the 2nd half when CBS has already switched their coverage
