Well we had a good three year run so probably about the same for them?

Doubt it. If Kap would still be playing as well as he did in '12, we would still be a good team. All you need in the NFL is a good QB and you got a competitive team. As long as Carr stays healthy and continues to improve, there's no reason why the Raiders can't be a 10+ win team for the next 10 years.

Your theory doesn't compute. The chargers have a good QB and a crap team. So do the saints. So do the colts. So do the panthers.

also good to see crabs out there ballin.

Dont see the comparison whatsoever. In fact, I would say that Crabtree is more similar to Rice than Cooper is. Cooper and Rice are not the same mold of WR at all.

I disagree I think Cooper runs routes very much like Rice, he's very smooth in and out of his breaks. Crabtree is nothing like Rice I see Crabtree as more of Chris Carter type of WR.

It is very early to make the comparison to begin with, but I dont see Cooper's routes as anything close to how Rice ran his. The only reason I said Crabtree is because he IS a precise route runner like Jerry was. I dont see much of a comparison with him either, but I do think its closer than Cooper.

It's crazy. The proposed stadium is like 10-1t minutes away from my house, and right next to where I work (Mandalay Bay).

The Raiders are definitely the #1 team in Vegas but I would imagine most fans at the games would be away fans.

Guess we know what the Raiders want to do...

"I would like to thank Governor Sandoval, the Southern Nevada Tourism Infrastructure Committee, and the members of the Nevada Legislature on this historic day, " said Raiders owner Mark Davis. "All parties have worked extremely hard to develop and approve this tremendous stadium project that will serve as a proud new home for the entire Raider Nation."
