[Reever] Jack Jones and Robert Spillane are “pissed off” about predictions of them going 6-11 and having Antonio Pierce as the 28th ranked HC. “We gonna show everybody.”

  1. This is a departure of how teams of ours in the past have spoken about these kinds of things. Usually, it was a lot of ‘we don’t pay attention to that kinda stuff’. Seems like they are using it as bulletin board material now.

    Interesting shift.

  2. The combination of these 3 men are going to make me bust through a brick wall. I really love this team culture.

  3. Go out and show them something men. I love a team with a chip on their shoulder.

  6. The thing that makes me the most excited about this season, is that consistently players when speaking to the media have a true sense of belief that this team will be great this year and I 1000% expect them to back it up.

    In past years, you defo have the offseason hype talk, but the amount of confidence that every single player comes with is just different this year. I think AP is just a special dude, and has a knack for people liking and believing in him. Like even media members who worked with him at ESPN have nothing but belief in that dude, despite their takes normally being very negative towards the raiders. As long as Maxx stays healthy, I’d be extremely surprised if we finished the year below .500

  7. Not their side of the ball I’m concerned about but glad they’re going into the season with a chip on their shoulder.

  10. Jack Jones high key my favorite raider. How do i go about getting him to sign a copy of him staring down mahomes on Christmas

  11. Love this team. The fire, pride, motivation is just different this year.

  13. That’s exactly the mentality they should have. Fuck what anybody else says or thinks.

  15. I don’t know what to say actually. As a fan for more than 40 years, I just say this looks exactly like any other promising season. BECAUSE: I love AP and I LOVE the way last season ended BUT now it’s disappointment time right? Please feel free to add your agreements or your disagreements. Haha

  17. I fucking love where the team’s mentality is at since Pierce took over.

  18. I’m a Georgia Dawgs fan and for the last few years I’ve heard about how Kirby uses this shit to motivate the boys and, well, how did that turn out for them?

  19. Every podcast and article I’ve seen is basically convinced our defense lucked their way into being good last year and everyone on the roster other than Maxx is trash or overrated. Jones and Spillane should be pissed, especially after how well they played last year. Use that bulletin board material.

  20. I agree with him. Why are we ranked so low? Why had one of the best defenses in the league near the end of the season. We have a ton of offensive weapons. We would be higher. We will show them.

  21. I’m glad the media keeps counting them out, makes them want it more. They don’t want to barely win they want to dominate

  22. In the past it’s always been “Obviously you know it wasn’t enough you know but we have to try to improve you know for next week’s game”

    This time the team doesn’t feel like all talk if Getsy and AOC can score some fucking TDs.

    We won’t truly know if their shit is tightened up and the real deal until mid October, there’s some trial and error the first half of the season

  23. I’m surprised they’re ranking AP at 28. I would expect they would rank him lower based on all the additional disrespect he has been given.

    We’re going to take that shit personally.
