    Bottomline you don't attempt an onside kick at the beginning of the game against a high power offense unless you KNOW that you have a top defense, which we obviously don't.

    Having "blind faith" in a defense that everyone knows is going to have have problems was moronic. Our D might get better as the year progresses but right out the gate there's a lot of new pieces that need some time to gel and to throw them to the wolves to start the season was irresponsible if you ask me.

    Lmfao at you dummies, the risk is 25 yards and the reward is the ball. Seems pretty good considering the probability is probably sub 50 percent.

    It, essentially, allowed the Raiders to set the tone. They never played from behind or got desperate.

    That's why, typically, onside kicks are utilized later in games.

    Is that a news flash? I think most everyone on the planet knows that. You quoted him as 0-1 for 2017. Just noted......Mularkey could win a Super Bowl and you would still b1tch about him.
