    I would say that we need to work on our running game, but you can't teach an old dog new tricks.

    I knew going into this game that we needed to run run run the ball down the Raiders throats.

    Our running game looks like a joke. If we can't run the ball on the Raiders, I don't see where we can run on anyone else. I guess we will just have to wait until week 16 and 17 in meaningless games before we start seeing Murray and Henry looking good.

    Murray looked like he runs 4.9 and Henry's runs are so predictable. I was so happy with the Henry draft pick, but it's looking more and more like Henry isn't capable of being a 3 down NFL RB.

    Bad run blocking and piss poor running from our SMASH MOUTH RBs isn't going to get it done.

    I know, I know it's just week 1. But this run game looked horrid all preseason and now look horrid against the damn Raiders.

    The run blocking was bad. The rest of your complaints are misplaced.

    Don't think this is really surprising. When teams prepare to play us they expect a very basic & predictable run heavy offense. We came out today and did exactly what the raiders prepared for.

    Looked garbage. mariota lead the team in rushing 80% of the game on 2 carries. This team is built on the run and we can't even do that lol. Murray looked like trent richardson out there.

    Curious why we kept insisting on running to Mack's side?

    Because we are a smash mouth team and nobody can or will stop our powerful RBs.

    It looked bad. I liked what I saw from Mariota and the WR unit though. Can't wait for a new coaching staff.
