-Can't guard Olave.
-Dalton is playing as well as he ever did.
-Peat on the field is a difference maker.
- Taylor is the real deal. Talented with EFFORT.
-Rasheed continues to make plays.
-Davenport, Onyemata and Turner sighting.
-No Turnovers.
-Hill making plays.
-Refs didn't have their hands on the scale.
-Raiders are bad.

I’d like to point out an important thing(s) you mentions here Cruize. Three Players (Taylor, Olave, Rasheed) are rookies. We haven’t even seen Penning yet. Now, when you throw in Werner and Adebo that’s some pretty good young talent. Consider big money guys like Ram, Kamara and Latt are producing when on the field. If Thomas can ever get back on the field (queuing up map on that one) that’s a pretty good core moving into the future.
I know it’s the Raiders and it’s one game, but I guess I’m optimistic. Maybe not for this season exactly, but I certainly don’t think we are in the blow it up and rebuild stage (now que up bako). Keep in mind that if Lutz makes a FG here or if Kamara/Ingram had one fewer fumble there or if the damn refs call a fair game this team could be 5-3 or 6-2 easily.

I also realize the Ravens are a tough team to take on next week. Could be singing a different tune.

Not nitpicking your post but we're fine without Thomas, really have been. The guy has barely seen the field in 2 years and these young wr's are getting into rhythm ,as far as Ingram I would bring in another back right now and only use Ingram on tough yds. depending on the situation only.

True he’s not been necessary. I brought him mainly up cause I think he’s gonna be on the team for a while with that contract. Hopefully we can get some mileage out of him. He looked pretty good in that first game against Atl.

The talent is there but underperforming.
