They don’t feel comfortable with Jones, yet he’s on the roster, then bring up a RB from the practice squad and gives him more carries. Typical Knapp screw up blah blah blah blah I like twinkies and back fat…

TJ has been really good on ST this year, which is why he is still on the gameday roster.

I’m not one for daydreaming about what could have been, but Oakland had a good thing with Michael Bush.

They don’t feel comfortable with Jones, yet he’s on the roster, then bring up a RB from the practice squad and gives him more carries. Typical Knapp screw up. If Jones is that bad and no confidence in him, then put him on the practice squad, trade him or get rid of him. Another example of money spent for NOTHING. Reese is a great all purpose back, but not an everdown back so yes Palmer will have to throw most of the games which means interceptions again. Knapps version of offense isn’t working for the run and the front line can’t block, the defense can either stop the run and let the passing go wild or stop the passing and the running goes wild. They can’t do both. What number draft pick will the Raiders get? Trade DMC, get a few higher draft picks, then maybe Jones will be ready.

Taiwan Jones has to feel really good about that. But with Knapp’s playcalling, Reece won’t get more than 10 carries anyway so it probably won’t matter.

Reece is a special weapon, a true mismatch waiting to happen. To call him a complete player would be an understatement.

Having said that, Knapp needs to be gone asap, if not sooner.

doesn’t matter by the third quarter they’ll be so far behind they’ll have to throw every down.
