Paul Gunther should’ve been fired a long time ago

    Joe Rodriguez

    Exactly that set us back at least two years. Thats why you dont hire your friends, harder to let them go. This is a business and PG was not handling his

    tow mater

    You try to give a coach 2 years or three . But in this case it was just to bad
    .

    Syker Vang

    He’s already fire bro!

    Juicehead89

    @Syker Vang Yea but it’s a little to late should’ve been fired the following year

Kevin J

You dont want to disappoint Mike. He’ll go from Mayock to MayGLOCK real quick 🔫😈💯

    Very Rare

    @B M Devin Bush*

    Austin Nardone

    Thats what we needed tho reggie was a softy

    B M

    @Very Rare Bush would’ve been great too. Mayock taking a de that shouldve went in the early second…what a waste. Raiders doing Raider things…curse of Marcus Allen strikes again. ✌🇺🇸

    pigspigs76

    @B M I was praying for Hockenson or a lb

Jason Monroe

Off-season I hope our d line is getting lower body and core strengthening done extra.. We need pressure on QBS. RN4L

    Jason Monroe

    @Feliciano Talamantes muscle gains trust dat

    Jason Monroe

    @Feliciano Talamantes I was raised in Vegas trust dat, in n out is trash it’s about fat burger

    Salattrooper

    We get as much pressure on the QB as teams like WFT, 49ers and the Colts, we just can’t finish the Sack. Either the QB steps up or he escapes the pocket. Need a rushing DT that can pressure the QB in the arms of Maxx/Cle

    Kyle Earle

    They need to work on technique. None of them have pass rush technique. It’s all run stopping.

    Jason Monroe

    @Salattrooper you are right by pressure I meant touching, hands on QB. We do get pressure I agree

Diego :P

RIP to your dad Mr. Mayock <3

    @Miguel Montenegro Hi!

A B

Shouldn’t be drafting guys to play out of natural positions.  I didn’t like our draft class that much last year.  Had Lamb and Jefferson on the board.  I thought Ruggs was the worst of the bunch seeing we needed a true #1 and Ruggs isn’t that guys.  Not saying he can’t be a great player, but felt we really needed big TRUE #1.  Also reached for Arnette when I though we would go linebacker with Queen or Murray.  I always feel like GMs sometimes over think or want to prove they made a pick that no one else saw instead of getting best available.

    MATY.ON.A.MISSION

    we do have a true number 1 receiver; he’s just happens to play tight end.

    Naturalhighz

    I kinda knew they’d take ruggs but I was really hoping he’d be gone so we could’ve taken Lamb. I’m hoping ruggs steps up in year 2 but definitely not the right pick in the situation. I also like arnette but I would’ve liked him more in the 2nd round. Last years draft was just not great looking at it right now but we’ll see. they say it takes 4 years to see if a draft class was actually good.

    Tall Ken Chit.

    @ A B. The receivers drafted after Ruggs did not turn their franchises around. Please, withhold judgement on the rookie Arnette. He has a new defensive coordinator. So, we shall see.

    Darius Jones

    The circumstances on each team are different. Lamb and Jefferson have a lot of plays designed for them. While Ruggs is used as more of a decoy to open things up for everyone else. Lamb and Jefferson wouldn’t have put up big numbers with this team either.

    Arnette was a reach but he wouldn’t have fell to pick 80 tho.

    Hayden Hernandez

    I agree Ruggs felt more of a luxury pick rather then an necessity but I feel Bryan Edwards will pan out better

Joe Rodriguez

Maybe using the players strengths to our benefit besides the coaches strengths. Its not working, FIX IT

    West Coastin'

    This 💯💯

    Tall Ken Chit.

    @ Joe Rodriquez. Excellent point. What is that waived Kentucky’s player’s strengtht? What is Isiah Washington’s strength? What is Tanner Muse’s strength? Why was Erik Harris even on the Raiders roster?

    Joe Rodriguez

    @Tall Ken Chit. hard to say what most of these players strengths are. Although thays Mayocks job is to see the strengths in these players then communicate to these coaches on what he sees and these coaches either have ignored or dont use these players correctly. Oh well past is the past. We shall see how Gus Bradley approaches this offseason and how he implements the talent that we have which is lacking on the defensive side.

    Tall Ken Chit.

    @Joe Rodriguez I believe we have the instinctive talent (strength) on defense. Making the tackle (weakness) after the instinctive lead is an issue.

Duke

Ferrell won’t be nothing more than a solid d lineman , get over it mayock you whiffed

    Jack Tate

    It wasn’t his fault he was taken in the first round.

    Jakaub Spina

    @Duke his career is over? Last time i checked when football players retire we know what their true value was. Clelin Ferrell could go to another team and get 10 sacks a year. He had a game this year with 2 strip sacks. Sure he doesn’t put up big stats now, but you can’t predict the future pal so you can’t say he wasn’t worth the pick just yet. He potentially has 8+ more seasons where he could prove you wrong…

    yng Digi

    on any other team this man would be a stud we have talent on D but coaching cant put it together 🤷🏻‍♂️ look at these playoff teams with hurt starters and they have dudes step up because of the systems implemented

    Jack Tate

    @yng Digi Where is the talent?

    Tall Ken Chit.

    @ Duke. When it comes to the D line, Solid is better than being all hot air and wet.

Roland Hernandez

Good interview. Alls I got to say is 😵 RRRAAAIIIDDDEEERRRSSSS!!!

Andre Guardado

Trent brown was. Mistake

Tall Ken Chit.

A top ten offense that struggles in the red zone, again. Accountability 101

    Tall Ken Chit.

    @hahah you did it Fine. Now, after taking ownership for our weakness aka screwups what is next?

    hahah you did it

    @Nikko Ramirez who got them there Carson Wentz before he tore his ACL come man

    hahah you did it

    @Tall Ken Chit. defense and a better second Sting running back. just like Cleveland did

    Tall Ken Chit.

    @hahah you did it Cleveland Defense could not get a stop against the Chiefs in the playoffs. We stopped their asses. And, I like all of our running backs. Furthermore, if Jacobs crashes a car after a collective team shitty season, then 54 more cars should be….

    Joseph Martinez

    Gruden”s play calling in the red zone was atrocious! Who sends a FB and TE off to the short side of the field on 3rd and goal in overtime, when the game is on the line? Gruden!

Michael Fair

My condolences go out to Mike Mayock’s father who have passed away and he was unable to make the meeting God bless them

    SCRUBLORD

    What meeting?

    pigspigs76

    @SCRUBLORD interview with the new defensive coordinator

RAIDER J

Defense is a joke. Love my raiders but damn you killed me last year.

    Tall Ken Chit.

    @ Raider J. Our defense is a joke, but for most of the season they routinely got a much needed STOP in the 3rd quarter of the game.

    Apex Amrit

    This defense has been trash for years

kingofkings040492

Love how he called out Ruggs arnette and the human kamikaze abram

    kingofkings040492

    @Brad Arbeiter I mean he did. He holds himself accountable. Hope you actually watched it.

    History of Video Games

    For real! To add to that, I love *how* he called them out. Mike didn’t say they suck and need to better, but instead, he pointed out positives of what they’ve then *explained* how they can get better in the off-season. Abram will cool down with experience and good coaching.

    Jack Tate

    Hopefully he calls out that guy who’s supposed to be a head coach.

    Tall Ken Chit.

    @Brad Arbeiter Calm down. He called himself out and they are all rookies.

    Tall Ken Chit.

    @Jack Tate Good point. Calling out the rookies is to be expected, But, calling out the veterans and especially the Head Coach that hired you requires tact. LOL

Timothy Crosby

Trade Williams,Brown, and Mariota for any picks we can get or cut them. That would open up around 30 million and get is some extra picks in the draft. More options to be able to move up if needed. But hey these guys are professionals right? LOL

    Tall Ken Chit.

    @ Timothy Crosby. We need some dogs! Raiders do not need players who are only, righteously, thinking about their financial $ecurity. Just Win Baby!

medene

I love the spirit of accountability (good or bad) in Mayock’s tone and language.

Arthuro Herrera

And that’s why nobody is producing, because they’re not playing their natural position

    Tall Ken Chit.

    @Arthuro Herrera Waller was s WR. His success at TE influenced Mike Mayock tremendously.

    marquise carr

    Man Waller is the only true mismatch. On defense play those players in their natural position I don’t like that we try to experiment with them like that

    Breyan

    @Tall Ken Chit. he talking about Defense, putting Ferrell on the inside, Joyner in slot and so on.

    Raymond Perez

    @Breyan Ferrel had played very well at DT and was our best run stopper

    Michael Edwards

    That’s what I’ve been trying to preach like wtf is going amd wonder why we suck

Robert Dore

Abram needs to sit down and talk to guys like Ronnie Lott and Mike Haynes.

    Giovanni Miranda

    Dude needs to sit down and learn when to be aggressive and when not to, too many flags cuz of it and missed tacked cause he over committed so he can hit hard

    Tall Ken Chit.

    @ Robert Dore. Abrams has access to Woodson. Having one of the 3 or their modern day equivalents (ie. Jalen Ramsey) on the field with Abrams would benefit the Nation enormously

    Chisholma27

    He needs to do some roids and play linebacker.

TheJohn5239

Can we please put Joyner back at safety where he belongs now that PG is finally gone

Watts Raider

If we fix the Defense and Gruden wakes up with his playcalling the Raiders are a team that can be consistent and Not FALL APART.
