It's on Espn, Curious how many snaps Carr takes and how many touches Josh Jacobs gets. How does our defense look after a nice showing against the Rams. PJ Hall came into camp a fat slob so he's in Chucky's doghouse.

I'll watch what I can. I'll probably fall asleep. 4:00 am comes early.

Carr and the rest of the offense march down the field on opening procession.

Raiders were up 26-0, now 26-10 at halftime...don't be surprised if back up Cards qb Hundley marches them back in 2nd half and Cards win this game. Petermen sucks and hundley isn't bad...this game isn't over.

We destroyed them in this game. Our 1's looked unstoppable, Jacobs looked like he could go all day long ripping off about 7 yds/carry. Our 2's killed their 1's.

It was 33-13 at the end of the 3rd qtr. Nothing that happened int he 4th mattered at all.

Overall, very happy with what I saw last night. Offense looked very crisp, and for the second game in a row the defense showed up big time. We finally have a slot corner in Joyner that doesn't hand over an easy 3rd down conversion. Burfict sniffed out all the screen plays like nobody's business, and the test of the team was just sharp all around.
Credit to Gruden and Mayock, still a ways to go to compete with the big dogs....but no longer look lost and talent less.
Also, we still have two 1st rounders next year when we'll be in Vegas!

I loved the first shot to Tyrell Williams on the sideline, just throw it up and let him go get it against the mismatch. Carr was on point.

Yeah we looked impressive in the 1st half and that drive in the early 3rd qtr to put game away. Cards are rebuilding, they obviously don't game plan for preseason because nobody does. Glorified scrimmage to evaluate the young guys to cultivate a 53 man roster. We have a lot more speed on defense, Jacobs going to be a stud, Williams, AB, Carr throwing to them and the nucleus at running back will be formidable. Question will be can we be consistently impressive in a game that means something that we're game planned for against opponents starters. If we go minimum 4-2 in our division and 5-5 or 6-4 against the other ten opponents than thats a 9-7 or 10-6 season. We have to beat KC for once especially in KC. Need that break through. Sweep Denver like they've done us many times the last twenty plus years and at least split with the Chargers.
