***Week 15 GameDay Thread - Raiders @ Bengals***

[*Nately120*]

Is Auden Tate out there?

[jfkbengals]

So here's the question of the day.

Will we give up points inside of the two minute warning???

[Yojimbo]

Time for Marv to take the foot off the gas. Wouldn't want to embarrass his friend across the field.

His reactions to his throws are some of my favorite parts of this game.

I hope Marvin is this aggressive next year too.

[Goalpost]

When there is no pressure we play better. Flex us a KC game and we fold.

On one hand, I love to see them playing better and having a good chance to win a game.

On the other hand, I know that a win today or in one of the last 2 guarantees Marvin for a 17th season.

No conflict at all on my part. I hope we run the table.

That's the question every week. Might as well just pin it to the boards.

3 to 1 odds accepting bets now..

I hope they look for a blocking tight end this offseason...

The Bengals are bad right now. This game should tell you just how bad the Raiders are, Pitt game aside. 

But yes, i have no doubt they're more motivated to play against a former coach. 

They're playing at home against a really bad team in a game that means pretty much nothing with a QB that's throwing everything beyond 15 yards about a mile over his receivers heads. The defense is playing much better...but it's not hurting that the offense they're going against looks like hot buttered crap. 

17 point lead...end of 1st half...here comes the letdown and points on D. 

[Nicomo Cosca]

He had ALL DAY to make that throw.

[Browns Town Bengal]

There's the D I love

Same here.  The idea of Marvin losing his job because we don't beat the Steelers in week 17 is a laugh 

[*TheLeonardLeap*]

Vigil with that excellent tackle attempt.

[Atomic Orange]

Well that was gross.

[Bengalitis]

TE sticking it to the Bengals.

Sorry, i read this completely wrong the first time. 

Bad teams don't just flip the switch "because". Do you think the Raiders would be more fired up to play Pitt at home or the Bengals on the road?

[The Caped Crusader]

Sheesh. One broken tackle and it's a 50 yard gain. Yikes

[impactplaya]

please overhaul the LBers in 2019.
