Bad omen for his career

Raiders 2025 was a train wreck. Crosby had health issues and wasn't quite himself. Carroll was over the hill, OL sucked, Geno was bad, etc etc., whatever could go wrong, went wrong.
Report: Klint Kubiak done with this bullsh*t, backs out of position as Raiders head coach.

Even though I'm not a Russ hater anymore by any means, that trade and jokes about it will never stop being the funniest thing ever to me.
Yup. I'm surprised JS didn't get arrested for robbery.
I noticed your lack of hate so I picked up the slack and turned mine up to 11.
Yep, the Russ and Geno jokes are still pretty funny.
Back on thread, this whole thing is pretty damn sketchy by Baltimore. They trade away high picks, Crosby magically "doesn't pass his physical" and the very next morning you sign Hendrickson. I agree with what someone else said, they were likely talking to Hendrickson for a while. Then realized they could get out of using ANY picks and still get a damn good D Lineman.
I hate the Raiders, but they did them pretty dirty, imo.

No doubt Ravens personnel in-the-know on an imminent Hendrickson deal were all acting a little weird around Crosby.

Ravens GM is trying to say that they were trying to get both of them, one for each end. So he was planning on spending $60 million and 2 first round picks on basically one position on the line? Does he think people are buying it?
What Baltimore did should be worth a loss of draft picks. They put Maxx on a hook to bait Hendrickson, then threw him back. He was weeks after knee surgery, everyone knew that. Bad faith seemed to be in play.
No doubt. The league has a real opportunity to send a message here.

Can't beat a Spinal Tap reference. I hope you bought their #1 single last year.

Technically the Ravens did nothing wrong other than violate a gentlemans agreement

Unless you also count not being upfront and honest about having buyers remorse and claiming it was because of a failed physical by a guy that is in recovery from surgery who they knew could not pass a physical... I think that's actually more despicable than just pulling out of the deal in the first place breaking your agreement.

What goes around comes around. In 2014 the Raiders signed a FA player and then declared that the player had failed a medical. The player went back to his original team and was an NFL starter for 8 years through 2021.
Should lose the picks they promised in the trade plus an extra 1st if anything gets proven.
