looking ahead:
think we can beat the rams and jets, be 5-3 heading into SF. hope so at least
team is still young and going through growing pains, but we are 3-3 with one egg laid and two close losses to league powers.
could be much much worse. want it to be better but
The Raiders' run game wasn't good in Week 6, but the usage and splits of their young RB duo were ideal.
Now, Mike Washington Jr.'s status is in doubt for Week 7 due to injury, which is bad for him and could ruin their evolving plan.

Could the Raiders get an offer they couldn't refuse for Kirk Cousins?
If they do, it would be from one of these three teams. ⬇️

@raiderslove1234 Well, he's not coming off an Achilles injury. That was in 2023.
And the way he's playing, teams would give up a pick if they think he can help them salvage their season. Other teams may be in contending windows and just a solid QB away. Worth it for a SB run, etc
Jackson Powers-Johnson found himself on the bench this past weekend.
This is the third straight staff that hasn't seen what a lot of Raider Nation sees in JPJ.
Things have come to a head.
What can Las Vegas do? What should they do?
We discuss it all. ⬇️
Update: Raiders DT Tonka Hemingway has arrived at practice on Friday after warmups. He’s out of the red non-contact jersey.
He returned Thursday in a limited capacity, a positive sign of progression through concussion protocol. Another good step today.
Brock Bowers didn't have his usual production in Week 6.
That's because the Buffalo Bills had a great game plan for him.
But Bowers was still productive. You can slow him down, but he's impossible to stop.
Check out the film. ⬇️

Raiders RB Mike Washington Jr. is not here to start practice on Friday. He missed Thursday’s session with foot and back injuries and was limited on Wednesday.
Before you all freak out about IPM... he's the ST captain and actually made a handful of tackles there last week and was solid.
Super impressed with how DJ Glaze has responded this year.
Stukes!! The rook!!
@DC_NFLDraft I know you would be!!😂 Seemed like he played better on Sunday tho, no?
Still, Parham is as solid as they get and y'all need him back. Maybe not before W8 tho...
if you trade for JPJ at the deadline:
✅ Team control for 1 1/2 years
✅ Get him back to his true position (center)
✅ a better fit in the gap/power block and scheme that Frank Reich wants to run
Not sure what the asking price would be, but it’s worth a conversation - legit short-term and long-term benefit.
Plus, we can Kick Josh Myers straight to the moon after this year
@DC_NFLDraft Oh hey no worries at all!! Wasn't asking for any credit, sorry; just always love when our stuff sparks conversations anywhere!
Appreciate your kind words a lot as well.
And how many former Raiders guards can the Jets take??😂😂😂
From Jack Bech’s Instagram:
Seems like the second-year WR could be returning from injury soon.
He was placed on IR after Week 3, so Bech’s 21-day practice window could open as soon as next week.
Raiders also need to make a decision on Dont’e Thornton Jr. in the next 6 days.
