    Most of the guys he listed there aren´t even really that good
    Gilmore is sort of a project for Belicheat, he hasn´t been that player for 2-3 seasons now, but got paid big because of potential, need, and because he has the same agent as Revis
    Gillislee, role guy
    David Harris, washed
    Dwayne Allen, meh, he might be 4th string on the RAIDERS
    Cooks is by far the scariest addition they´ve made..by far
    Even if Brady doesn't get hurt, Gronk probably will and Cooks could be a difference maker for them in that scenario
    Patriots V RAIDERS in Mexico City should be a good one if both teams avoid the big injury bug

    Can´t you feel the excitement?
    Thank goodness the Bills decided to pass on Khalil Mack in the draft

    IF Watkins can be healthy it'll be a win win for both teams. I'm glad the Rams are trying to give Goff more weapons but have we done enough to shore up that O line. Signs are good. Look the Rams were putrid last year but I really think 5 - 7 wins is a possibility IF Goff gets protected, Gurley stops being one and DONALD COMES BACK!!!!

    2nd best Super Bowl odds right now, RAIDERS @ 6-1 and they´re reportedly getting the most action right now. Only the Pats are ahead of them @ 3-1. Have some stuff to mull over before I leap, but I am headed back to Vegas next weekend for you know what. Lol Been sucked into the fight weekend drama. Smh Won´t be at the fight, though. Still, have to admit that there´s nothing like Vegas on a weekend when Mayweather is fighting.

    Anyway, yeah, Super Bowl or bust..which, BTW, doesn´t mean ¨ win the Super Bowl or get rid of everybody on the team. ¨ Even though there more than likely will be some highly to semi-highly paid big name vets being let go by Reggie after this season..Sean Smith probably one, Crabtree possibly another, Reggie Nelson just about a guarantee, to name a few. But yeah, Super Bowl or bust just means anything short of a Super Bowl appearance or win will be considered a failure, and that´s about right for their situation, Derek Carr saying the same.

    Regardless of the results this season, they´ll march forward with the same core of young superstar talents that have drawn all their talented vet free agents and look to keep building on it, but 2017-18 is the immediate prize. Anything less will not suffice..not with all that talent and a MVP caliber player on both sides of the football. Although, as always in football, health will play a major role, maybe the biggest..and their excellent fucking left tackle still needs to join his team, really starting to worry me.

    Will most likely end in bust if the pass defense is anything like it was last season. I think our peak is AFC title game...too many holes to get past New England.

    Semi-agree, not fully, only because they got a lot better and started coming together as the season went on last year.
    Those 1st two games did them no favors statistically, but I didn´t really feel horrible about those games at the time because it was Brees and Matt Ryan and those high flying offenses.
    But they were a ton better statistically when Karl Joseph finally got his footing and was in there consistently.
    They need all hands on deck, that means Mario Edwards can´t be missing basically another whole season..they´re saying he looks dominant right now..we´ll see.
    Edwards could be an even bigger difference maker than Joseph is for them.
    But yeah, they truly attacked the defense in the draft, similar to the way the Falcons did the year before, so hopefully they´ll be more consistent this season



    If they make it to that game and NE is on the other side, and they can´t get past them, I´ll be disappointed because NE is overrated in my book.
    Falcons choked the biggest lead in history away when all they had to do was run the ball in the 2nd half..run the ball and kick a FG at the end.
    Look back to that RAIDERS/Falcons game from last year..RAIDERS were in that game from the start, played them tough all the way through..were never having their asses handed to them like the Pats were in the SB.
    Pats have all those SB wins, so they get a little bit overrated at times.
    I will say this, though..RAIDERS could certainly use the annual Gronk injury.
    I think Obi Melifonwu will be a good match for Gronk, but fuck that, I´d rather Gronk just not suit up all

    NE scares me a lot more this season than last season because they could have a healthy Gronk, they added Cooks, and added Gilmore. They won a SB with average looking joes like Chris Hogan lining up at WR. It's not often a SB winner improves. Yeah, Atlanta had them down for the count, but that was on a neutral field. Winning at Foxborough is a whole different story...maybe we can find a way to get homefield, but NE plays in an extremely weak division while ours is pretty tough. The Giants and even Atlanta prior to the choke have proven the best way to stop NE is with the pass rush. If Mack and co. can get to Brady, we have a chance...but if Brady gets time, he'll dink and dunk us to death. I'd rather just avoid them all together.

    Every so often the Giants, led by shitty Eli Manning, will pop up and treat the Pats like they´re supposed to be treated.
    They don´t try to be pretty or play for MVP honors or coaching gigs..NYG just do what it takes to beat their ass and it just keeps shocking people for some reason.
    It shouldn´t..NE coasts to the playoffs every year and they don´t get a ton of competition from inside the division..then they get all kinds of help from opposing players and coaches that help them get rings as well and it´s just a damn shame.
    I think we can all say that NE should have lost to Seattle and Atlanta in those Super Bowls..to go along with 2 losses to the NYG.
    And maybe the biggest indicator for me is that Joe MF Flacco every so often will go into New England and hand the Patriots their ass.
    I will absolutely call the RAIDERS soft if they get to the title game and get blown away by NE

    Gronk seemingly always starts out healthy, but the bottom line with him is he´s had 4 back surgeries now, so not even NE is sure about him..they got him to take paycut for this year.
    But yeah, at the same time, just the idea of Gronk is overwhelming, so like I said there, I´d just rather him be out altogether.
    Cooks, I´m with you 110%..I still can´t believe the Saints did that BS..he might be the most talented slot receiver type Brady´s ever had and I don´t like that..and he´s still young.

    I think NE needed to improve and that it may be why they went out and spent in FA the way they did, but at the end of the day the only guy from that FA group that scares me is Cooks.
    Rob Ryan was talking about the corner they picked up from Buff yesterday and it didn´t sound all that good..he hasn´t been top tier in 2-3 years as well..Coop sliced him when they played Buffalo.
    NE can be beat in multiple ways..most notable is with the pass rush ( as you said there), but usually the team also needs to be physical and able to dominate the clock with a running game to help keep Brady´s opportunities to a minimum.
    Falcons blew it on those grounds..and then the Falcons do what this off-season?..they give their RB the biggest contract in the NFL for a RB. Lol

    If Donald Penn doesn´t get his fat ass into camp, all bets are off
    I think they´d slide Osemele over to LT and he´s solid there and experienced, but then they´d rotate elsewhere and get weaker overall and fuck that..not when DC is coming back fresh off injury
    The O-line is definitely the engine for the whole squad, Penn needs to stop fuckin around..saw he got called out on IG by his 2nd or 3rd ¨ baby mama ¨ as well..Mark shouldn´t have to pay for 1 man´s team of baby mamas
