00:00one final point on the las vegas raiders drs and the afc west of course the acquisition and the

00:06trade for geno smith p carroll is the new head coach they know each other from their time together

00:11in seattle they draft ashton genti sixth overall he's the favorite to be offensive rookie of the

00:17year in the nfl and they had a rookie record setter last year in the tight end brock bowers

00:23they bring back max crosby they pay him a ton christian wilkins who was acquired last off season

00:29now i'm not thinking the raiders are a nine or ten win football team or a playoff contender but i

00:35don't think las vegas is a doormat in this division in the afc west and that stability with pete carroll

00:51pass but here's why i'm talking about that where you say maybe donnie doesn't want to bet them

01:00do we also forget like chip kelly's coming back to the nfl like maybe you don't like him as a head

01:04coach but the guy knows offense here and i'm intrigued to see what that offense is going to do

01:08are we running a tempo that could be fantastic and maybe one of those things ben that gets

01:13corrected early in september where maybe their team totals or game totals are a little bit low

01:17because we don't know what to anticipate out of chip kelly but the one thing we do know is he knows

01:22his way around he'll get them in the right spots here brock bowers is a wonderful tight end genus

01:26with the veteran quarterback and they have an electric running back maybe we get some surprise

01:30team totals early from the raiders
