Raiders Vs Skins Pregame Thread

Who on the team "breaks out" this weekend with a big game?

Im gonna call TP breaking out...100 yards Receiving 1 TD.


who you got?

Docston. It's coming sooner or later.

Breakout guys: D - Fuller, O - Doctson (go ahead and roll your eyes).

On a side note, I absolutely love that Jonathan Allen and Matt Ioannidis led the D Line in snaps last week.

Amen. Ioannidis has made a huge leap from year 1 to year 2. And at such a needed position. It makes for tremendous depth on the line. When we can rotate in five guys between Allen, Ioannidis, McGee, Hood, and McClain it keeps everybody fresh.

But yeah it's a good sign that it's the young guys leading the way.

Fuller, also with a good leap from year 1 to year 2. Huge.

Cousins throws a TD to Grant in the 2cnd game and that is a confidence booster?? ..what about his demands for like 25 million per year!! He doesn't sound like a man without confidence to me.

Two different situations. In the contract situation he knows he had the upper hand because of the way that the franchise tag played out. On the field he still has to gain confidence in his receivers because they're a new group and in the play-calling which
is new and after throwing an interception in the Red Zone the first week he needed confidence in the Red Zone of his own.

Amen. Ioannidis has made a huge leap from year 1 to year 2. And at such a needed position. It makes for tremendous depth on the line. When we can rotate in five guys between Allen, Ioannidis, McGee, Hood, and McClain it keeps everybody fresh.

I love what I am seeing from Fuller so far, makes you really think he was hurt last year coming off that injury

Ioannidis had a great game.

I really think Manusky is coaching them up.

I mean guys in second year taking huge steps forward (Fuller, Ioannidis), guys we already know playing way better than last year (Preston Smith) and guys we didn't expect much of solidly contributing (rookie Nicholson, FA McClain)...

Something's going right in this locker room !

I haven't seen 1 person on TV pick us to beat Oakland.. I like that. Lets hope Kirk gets going and the run game stays strong.

Ioannidis had a great game.

Or Tomsula and Torrian Gray, really. I think Fewell was a fuckin turd in particular. And Tomsula is a beast.

I can see Gruden trying a trick play in this game, lateral to Pryor and Pryor chucking it downfield to a WR.

Ioannidis had a great game.

This is the biggest shocker to me. Out of our entire draft class I expected the least from him.
