Derek Carr has high ankle sprain, MCL sprain

AP

OK, so it’s getting worse for the Raiders.

With a 38-14 thrashing by the Dolphins setting the stage for the long flight home from London, they have even more issues.

According to Scott Bair of CSNBayArea.com, Raiders quarterback Derek Carr has a high ankle sprain and MCL sprain, which will obviously cost him some time.

Matt McGloin finished the game for the Raiders (not well), and it’s unclear when Matt Schaub will rejoin the team.

He didn’t travel with the Raiders to London, after missing last week’s game. His wife had to have an emergency caesarean section to deliver the couple’s baby.

While the biggest hope is the Schaub family is well, he might have a starting job again when he’s back to work after the bye.

  1. Well if they don’t turn around this season, then shame on them if they don’t start thinking about how to set up the next season with all this extra time and opportunity on their hands to plan for then.

  2. Listen, we’re still the Oakland Raiders. The same franchise that has a worldwide fan base. The same franchise that has 3 Superbowl trophy’s. It’s not like we’re some no-name 2nd rate franchise like the Chokers, Vikings or Chiefs. Those are places for the depraved and hopeless.

    We’ll be back! Most likely with the 1st pick in next years draft.

    Jameis Winston, come on down.

    We need to build around him!

  5. This teams reminds me of the Shell/Andrew Walter team. I’m not sure that they will win a game this season. Reggie never gave Hue the time of day and has to be accountable for that. Also, DA was his guy and seems to be in over his head. Since Hue the offense has slowly gotten worse and the defense has never improved.

    It is insulting to 2nd rate franchises when you lump the Raiders in with them. 3rd rate franchise is a much better classification for the silver & black attack.

  7. The head coach is a goner, and it’s a shame. You need a scapegoat, and in true Raider fashion, they’ll eff it up, and choose the wrong guy. However, should you do that, take Reggie with you.

  8. More bad news…..well let’s see we traded draft picks to get Matt Flynn, and Matt Schub after we had Carson Palmer….bottom line Reggie wanted his team….and this is exactly what we have……thanks

  9. We all had high hopes when the season started ,especially after the last Exh game in Seattle….been a fan since “64”….its not even Sept. and the season is over and we are on the clock…can’t blame Mark…he was given solid advise to hirer Reggie…he took an 8-8 team and has made them non competitive… a total new regime is in order…

  10. Welp, looking at the schedule, that’s about the last possible win for this joke team.

    The Dolphins are a terrible team that just housed you posers.

  11. Where are all the Raider fans calling for a super bowl in the offseason.
    I have been saying Reggie McKenzie was a disaster from Day One.
    He should resign immediately and stop this madness.

  12. I was wondering whether the CBS affiliate in LA was going to broadcast the game, being that it was in London, and supposedly the “nation” has some kind of representation in the greater LA region. Nope. They didn’t bother.

    Oakland residents, was the game on TV up there?

  13. The Raiders have some young talent on the roster, hell even Dan Fouts was spreading some credit prior to the game.

    The sad fact is that once again, for another week the team was not ready to play. The team was not ready to step onto the field and they were ill prepared. The team itself needs a kick in the ass. Once again I watched as players stood on the field and watched the action with less interest then I watched the game.

    It was sad, pathetic, and in general an embarrassment to the NFL as a whole. In a decade of losing I honestly though that it could not get worse. Boy was I wrong.

  14. Why is Carr a tragedy? How many wins did you have with him. It doesnt matter who plays QB for the Raiders, Joe Montana couldnt win there, management and coaching are so inept.

    Reg has been a disaster. DA has no head coaching ability and his demeanor certainly doesnt inspire. Raiders have drafted in the top 10 12 years now and continue to get worse. This organization needs to be blown up, shipped to Mexico and sold for salvage. Yes, you are that bad.

  15. No ones been trying at all it seems this year except Carr, Woodson and Sio Moore. The coaching is obviously bad as we only showed up to play 1 outta 4 games this year. Our D Coor. thinks we can just rush 4 all day with no blitz’s and be ok. O line cant run ANYWHERE! And I never heard Woodleys name called ALL year! EMBARASSING!

  16. Seven coaches since 2002. S-E-V-E-N!!!

    You “nation” types seem like a logical bunch…eh, but pretending you are, do you think that the eighth coach will do it for you? Really? Or, just maybe, possibly, by the slimmest of chances, is it the fact that they’re horribly run by bad ownership. What do you think?

  17. I keep waiting to see the topic ” Dennis Allen is fired” but in reality there is nobody on the entire coaching staff that is ready to lead….. tarver??? Olsen??? Not a chance..that is how bad it is….I can hear Allen now in the press conference tommorow, “we had a real good week of practice, we just have to find a way to get better, and blah blah blah,….. same stuff every time…..as much as Reggie blew up the whole organization, including Amy Trask, he almost has to throw his own body on one of his own grenade. I mean it maybe really that bad.

    Mark is going to need to get a guy like Bill Parcells or somebody else who knows how to turn things around. No more of this rookie stuff… No rookie GM, who only wants choir boys on his roster. No rookie Head Coach, …bring in some vets, and then sign some players that want to play, and pay them….I would start with Suh next year…

  18. Been a Fader Fan for all the years they have been around. What a shame they have re-gressed to the level they have. We have to re-build this team from the bottom up! There seems to be a basic flaw in the upper mgmt. Get rid of McKenzie for starters. Face it Reggie, you were’nt that good a line=backer and you are a ridiculous failure at GM. Davis should bring in some big guns in mgmt to help him turn this team around, or sell the team to someone who will! I really don’t think the head coach is inspiring this team at all. Hell, have you heard his press conferences? He doesnt know where he is! Remember Art Shell? What’s the sco, whats the sco? No clue. Start with him and work your way up…but you have to get rid of McKenzie…NOW!

  19. Raiders better not draft a QB, Carr is fine. Let’s go after a playmaking WR, a RB like Melvin Gordon or dude from Nebraska or a a DE or DT that can get to the QB and stop the run
