Oakland had a ton of penalties called on them or it could have been worse I bet they had 100-125 yards in penalties

Yeah I figured it was more so it could have been worse for us that held Oakland back a lot too

I think the O-line really stood up to the test for the most part. Really bright spot in my book

Yeah I was impressed. Though Brees was moving well or they would have had more sacks I thought. Im not sure how good the Raiders front 4 is though.

Great teams find ways to win. The Raiders are not a great team, we just found a way to lose like we have for 3 straight seasons.

Laurinitus should not be starting, Stephone Anthony is much, much better than him.

Back in the day we used to find ways to win, even when it was improbable. I agree.

I'm not sure if I can continue to be so heavily invested in the games every week. It just hasn't been worth putting other things in life on hold to make sure I don't miss the game.

Especially when they mess up like today, it puts me in a grumpy mood and literally kills any motivation I have.
