I don't know what happened to 'always compete' in Week 7, but the box scores say the Raiders lost the offensive yardage battle 434 - 95. :eek:

I also don't think I ever seen such a lopsided TOP either. KC had the ball for 42 mins of the game. Insane.

Chip as such a weird oc hire given that he had not only failed spectacularly as the Niners coach but then failed at ucla. I’m wondering why Pete would choose him.

Pete's Raiders are exactly like the last 5 years he ran the Hawks.

To the T.
100%! That’s why so many of us wanted him gone because at some point we realized he just wasn’t going to change because he lost his way of “always compete”. And that holding the folks that needed to be held accountable, accountable.

Pete was washed his last 3 years in Seattle, but people couldn't admit it and you had a couple of prominent film guys who everyone outsources their opinion to them who told everyone Pete was still elite when watching the tape even though we had dozens of film guys with more credentials saying Pete was past his prime. I love what Pete did in Seattle and wish he would've hung it up and retired on his own merit in Seattle. It worked out awesome for Seattle because the delay brought Macdonald but it's still a bummer to see Pete finish the way he did as we was a great coach early on.

When Pete starts throwing out phrases like, "I don't know how to process this," "I didn't see this coming," and "I don't know who that was, that wasn't us," it really does remind me of his last few years in Seattle. I'm not a fan of baffled, defeated Pete. It's his job to figure things out. He's had no answers for years.

Pete was washed after that superbowl loss. Basically, he was nothing without the LOB and the competition we faced was much harder the first 3 or 4 years of Pete's Seattle years. Its amazing that he was able to put together a defense that had elite players everywhere. The offense was no joke either with Beast mode and play makers like Doug Baldwin, Golden Tate, Kearse Sidney Rice. Then brining in Russell Wilson who fit this team so well at the time before he got fat and delusional about his own abilities. Pete was never an Xs and Os guy so he eventually got figured out and never adapted. His scheme relies on elite talent at pretty much every position.

If you listened to his presser yesterday, he basically was saying that they were missing key guys that really made the difference. Mike Macdonald acknowledged that we were missing starters when we lost but said that was no excuse for not executing and took full accountability. Pete is in the game of making excuses now while Macdonald is about accountability and finding solutions.

Matty Brown was one of those guys, He ditched the Hawks when Pete
got fired, I don't listen to anyone much, it's all there in front of you and
for your eyes to see, some just refuse to process that for whatever reason.

I just hate to see Pete go out like this. I hope he somehow shows what he did when he was here. Competative football. Although I feel it maybe too late for him.
