Lol
Remember when our division was supposed to be the best in the nfl? Possibly having a chance to send all 4 teams in the playoffs? Lolololol. And this was supposed to be KCs step back year for huge future gains. Oops |

My question is how much did Haircut Bowl Davis have to pay Jon Gruden out of the 100 mill 10 year contract? Is that why they're in the pore house? What a dumpsterfire of an organization.

Of all the dumb things media/twatter types post, this is one of the stupidest.
The Raiders worth is set around $6,000,000,000, and have guaranteed revenue streams. Banks would line up around the world to loan the Raiders org money if they needed it.

![]() Net worth and liquid assets are two different things. And don't you think it says something when you have to BORROW money to pay off a failed coach? Just admit it. The Raiders are a bad organization from the top all the way to the bottom. |

Tbh, I don't think most billionaires have 10s of millions in liquidity just lying around. I'd truly be curious how the logistics of all of these big money contracts work. Like, in years in which a player is due large sums, how do they move that money around? Aaron Rodgers, for example, was due something absurd like $40+ mil in 2022 alone.
Also, and this is a bit off topic, but I've read that the Bengals may face a similar issue when the time comes to extend Burrow, Chase and possibly Higgins. Apparently Brown is one of the least wealthy NFL owners and isn't projected to have the cash flow to ink such large deals so close together. I'm sure they'll figure it out, as the Raiders probably would/will if necessary, though. |

I kind of wonder if we could at some point have teams fold if the big-money TV contracts take a hit. In the 1920s teams folded because expenses were really low but revenues were also really low. Then we had a long period of time where expenses were relatively low and revenues grew rapidly. Now we're in an era where expenses are really high. Some of these legacy teams need revenues to be really high to cover those expenses, so if the revenues go down, what happens to them?

Scout report on Carr when coming out of Fresno State:
“ Footwork needs improvement; he often retreats from pressure and throws off his back foot. Needs to step into his throws more consistently. Poor decision-making under duress. Average pocket presence with wavering poise and unrefined pocket movement. Stares down his intended target. He needs to improve eye discipline. Too often appears to be flustered by pressure. Can be quick to flee the pocket. Inconsistent mechanics, has a tendency to lock his lower half and throw with his arm alone. Struggles when his receivers’ routes are disrupted. Often late to recognize the blitz. Operated almost exclusively out of shotgun with four or five receiver sets. Not an anticipatory thrower. Will not hurt defenses on the ground. He has enough mobility to get by but is not much of a running threat. Hangs his receivers out to dry at times. Does not appear to see the field very well, throwing into double-teams occasionally. Struggled with top competition. College career ended on a lousy note as he was erratic vs. USC in the Las Vegas Bowl.” Other than I think he picks up blitzes well enough, the rest of this still rings true today.

So Davis is cash poor? Like he doesn't have the money to buy out Josh, he had to pay Gruden and then hire a new coach? That's pretty sad considering he owns an effing NFL team.

We're talking about a ****ton of money. From some light Googling I've done, it appears the Raiders might have still owed Gruden up to $40 million after they fired him. I can't find the new contract details but McDaniels was making $4m/year in New England so you have to imagine he's making more as HC in LV. You could be talking about nearly $50 million owed to two bum ass coaches if they were to let McDaniels go, plus the money required to pay a new head coach and his staff. I wouldn't imagine many people could eat that sort of hit in cash on short notice. |
