He should start the rest of the year, if the Dolphins know what’s good for them.
Please. He's still shit. He didn't do anything. The run game worked, the O-line gave him time and the receivers were getting open because the Bears decided not to press us for some reason. Anyone could have done what he did. Difference between yesterday and the Non-Raiders games for us is Wilson turned two short throws into big TDs. In the other games he was getting tackled at the line of scrimmage.

Ok, go back to Tannehill and keep bashing yourselves over the head like you have for the last 7 years. I hear 8th time’s a charm!

If you don’t like Osweiler, Matt Moore’s still available...:whistle:

DOn't be dissing Matt Moore!

Just cause Tannehill isn't the answer, doesn't mean we should go with Osweiler. Would be like going from Ben Davies to Gilberto.

Last nights result still hurts. I know its the Patriots but if it wasn't for our crap defense on special teams we would have probably edged it.

That 1 yard short at the end of the game was a kick in the teeth too.

So we actually get a first rounder for Cooper from Dallas - can see the merits in this but sad it's ended this way for Cooper after such a promising start along with what seemed to be a budding rapport with Carr.

Gone into complete rebuild job now for Vegas...

As shannon sharpe said, the raiders are tanking and Gruden, has fleeced the ownership

He basically said he got the job saying the raiders have some great young pieces and will get these guys good again. Got there been worse than he expected and then said oh we need to do a total rebuild.

Shannon's exact words were you don't pay someone $10m a year to do a rebuild.

Raiders fans are annoying me as they following the team no matter what despite being treated terribly in the last 2 years(which btw was never good in the first place)

In couple of years time we may look at the team and think where the fuck did all go wrong if they go on to big things

Gruden's contract was ridiculous before all this even started. Absolutely baffling decision by somebody.

It's a fine margin.

Look at the numbers on the D against Brady this time round compared to our previous two meetings. Galling considering that is the first blocked punt for a TD the Bears have given up since 87 against the Giants. What are the odds!?

The under thrown pass to Miller was the killer, if Trubisky makes that throw ....

Personally I see growth in the team, but all three losses hurt ... Could be worse, could be the mighty run, run, punt - Fox offense ...

His contract is hilarious if he gets sacked the Raiders have to pay the difference at his new job whether its tv or not and on top of the $100m guaranteed he has incentives as well lol

Yeah it's absolutely ridiculous. One of the most bizarre contracts in the history of the NFL surely. I genuinely don't understand what they were thinking at all. Maybe you could sort of understand the logic if it was a deal to bring in some legendary coach who you could be relatively certain would turn you into champions, but just to bring back your old coach who's been a TV analyst for the past decade? What the actual fuck.

Oh yeah don't get me wrong this team is much more enjoyable to watch but the fine margins are killing us. We could and probably SHOULD be 6-0. The halftime lead at Packers, the overtime with Dolphins (that 3rd down field goal call still pisses me off) and the special teams completely forgetting how to defend against Patriots. All 3 could've easily gone our way, I would've taken just 1!

But we go again, Jets at weekend, need a good win in that to gain some confidence back after back to back losses. The bye week seems to have halted our momentum

I think the Miami game is the one which hurts most, turnovers and a really piss poor call by the Refs turned that game not to mention some lackluster tackling (which happened again in the Pats game) ended in the wrong result for the Bears.

Have to see how they perform over the next two games with two teams with rookies at QB (although not sure if Josh Allen will start for the Bills yet) that'll be the half way stage of the season for the bears with the bulk of our divisional games to come, we could still be in with a chance of a WC berth. I wouldn't have thought that possible at the start of the season.

At this point these stupid Falcons are just trolling me, how the fuck does Julio Jones have no touchdowns?!

Also I don't believe in Dak, Tony Romo is my quarterback and Jason Garrett should have been fired five years ago.

Yeah the Dolphins game hurt a lot, I was in a sulk after that!!

Next two games are huge for our season, on paper we should be winning both. Its huge because Green Bay face Rams and Patriots back to back, so if we could open up a 2 game advantage that would be big at this stage of the season, heading into our mini divisional run.

The North is wide open if you ask me. Think the Divisional games are going to be Key (well as it stands right now)

It's nice to feel part of it for a change! (for now)

Yeah it has been a long time. I'm happy we are part of it but christ our division is so competitive. I think we have the most even division this year, I still couldn't call who will finish on top (I'd guess Vikings) but who knows!!!

If we can finish on a positive win ratio this year that would be amazing and something to build on.

Gone are the days of Fox & Glennon:ROFLMAO:

Four Jacksonville Jaguars players have been arrested after they allegedly tried to leave a central London nightclub without paying a large bar bill.

They were accused of attempting to walk out of the Piccadilly venue without settling a tab of about £50,000 but were stopped by security, it is reported.

In a statement, the team said: "We are aware that four of our players were detained over restitution of a bill.

"The matter is being resolved and the players are with the team. Any discipline will be handled internally."

A Metropolitan Police statement said: "Police were called at 3.55am on Saturday, 27 October to a nightclub in Piccadilly, St James's, W1J following reports of a fight.

"Officers attended and spoke with a group of males who had allegedly been attempting to leave the venue without paying a large bill.

Reports here said they received numerous bottles of champagne and "high end liquors" they thought were "complimentary". At the end of the evening they were presented with a bill totalling around £50,000. Pretty impressive night out lads.
