Classic Raider Media


Says something about the Raiders since the turn of the century, but this is honestly one of my top 5 games since the Super Bowl loss 22 years ago.

The back-top-back McFadden "breakout" games in 2010 are in there too. I guess you can include the Jacoby Ford breakout game the following week against the Chiefs. But those 3 are a single "game" for me.

Others in the top 5? Maybe the Carolina Panthers game in 2016? Khalil Mack with the pick-six to end the half and the strip-sack/recovery to end the game is iconic. (also the game that Carr dislocated his finger) Maybe the 2017 Chiefs game with the Raiders replaying the last play 3 different times due to DPI? The Saints game in 2016 with Jalen Richard and the going for 2 to win it?

That Saints game was a memorable one for me. Was at a bar with a bunch of Raider fans and getting loose at 10AM and shit lol, good times.
 
You're lucky...could have been the Luxor

Quick and dirty one this year haha
Wish I could meet up with you but zero desire to pay for (or even watch at all) this Raider squad or go to Vegas.
Well, if Tool plays the Sphere I will go to Vegas.

I remember the last time I really felt good about this team, we kicked the shit out of the Jets and I watched from a bar in San Diego. The next week we got fuckin trounced by Washington in the kneel gate game. We've fuckin sucked ever since.

2016 Bucs definitely make that for me.
I have no memory of the 2018 Steelers game. Not sure why.
Ruggs Hail Mary is an excellent one
Zay Jones on that short yardage PA was a thing of beauty. Definitely hits for me.
“We’re going for the tie” - the leadup to the game is more memorable than the game for me
Jack Jones pick 6 of Mahomes. Absolutely

Marshawn Lynch going crazy on the sideline near the end of the game.

All was right in the world.

The Steelers game is definitely a regional and personal one for me. Carrier's GW TD was my phone background for years and I loved how the Steelers kicker slipped on the game-tying field goal attempt. But it was a pure Pyrrhic Victory. Haha.

The "Going for the tie" game made a huge impact among other NFL fans and the NFL YT account hyped it up. It even had its own Wikipedia page for some time. Lots of big plays with Richard's first down run on and 3rd & 20, the Chargers going for it inside their 20 and getting stuffed, their comeback when our defense couldn't make one 4th and long stop, the overtime period with Carr's big throw on 3rd down (that Collinsworth lost his mind over), Jacobs' big run, and Carlson's kick, Pimples pleading for a tie, etc.

I forgot to mention the Cowboys Thanksgiving Game in 2021 and beating KC 40-32 in 2020 with a bunch of bombs. Dammit, Ruggs.

Isn't 2018 the pizza dude's big win?
