PAPA CLASSICS: 2016 - WK 1 - OAK @ NO [FULL GAME]

[@thaddeuspuzdrakiewicz1436]

I was at that game. Live in the south and rarely go to games unless they play in nola or nashville. lucky coinicidence

[@socalsolero5690]

there's always going to be that "what if" with the 2016 season man. Imo Carr shouldn't haven't been playing so late against the Colts, that game😭

[@carlossoto6623]

Have no doubt, the last team to beat was the Patriots. We would have done it and we would have won the Super Bowl

[@jasonpdsi]

The only what if I have about the raiders is what if they weren't owned by a narcissistic egomaniacal petty asshole who torpedoed the greatest offensive player he ever had (yes, Marcus was a better offensive weapon than Bo) and completely sunk this team in an ocean of mediocrity for decades since their last Super Bowl win.

[@CantRead1]

@@jasonpdsi what a way too shit on ALs name, he still created three super bowl winning teams when it comes down to it.

[@larrymorgan7997]

The other stupid thing that Delrio did. Carr had a broken finger that he was playing through so he stayed in shotgun. That signalled to the Colts we were piling on that’s why they kept rushing Carr. We were literally 6 McGloin hand offs away.

[@America-jy9hz]

Papa and Flores. Miss that combo. Great upload. Thanks. 💯🙏☠️

[@nickbigmann5228]

I agree. I really enjoyed that duo for all the years they did Raider games.

[@gabrielvaldez1548]

I was there! Unbelievable.

[@lookiehere4700]

R.I.P. D. J. Hayden

[@nickbigmann5228]

I forgot about this game it was a classic game from 2016. Greg Papa very much underrated one of the best in the business.

[@originals4614]

This defines and started the modern day classic Raiders games imo. We had still been nursing the Super Bowl loss, retreads at HC & QB (JaMarcus...) and it seemed like Del Rio was going to continue that trend outside looking in. Came in... & BANG!!!

[@thrill2020]

Man i miss Papa doing Raider games, just like i missed Bill King doing our games when he left and Papa took over flawlessly 2 legends RN4L

[@albertomartinez3469]

] PAPA IS THE BEST AND WILL ALWAYS BE OUR VOICE OF RAIDER NATION!!!! NO DISRESPECT 💪 ☠️ 🙏😎 UNCLE JIM ALSO ONE OF BEST!!!!

[@josesolorio8671]

That was a game to remember!!!

[@rd-pd8xb]

Oh no you dinnint!!! You Papa’d week 1??? Man...I’ve binged away the whole weekend.

[@manuginobilisbaldspot424]

I swear, we got a decade's worth of good fortune and breaks in that 2016 season. This game is a great example. So many small things. The Saints having to burn a 2nd timeout after screwing up a playcall that had the Raiders fooled up 24-19. Instead of maybe down two scores, it's 27-19 and they have just one timeout. The PI call for Coop on the last drive. Then the PI on the throw to Richard that was probably uncatchable. Then a dumpoff to Richard burns 35 seconds before Roberts gets the TD to make it 34-33. And with the silly penalty on Crabtree after the 2-pt conversion, Janikowski's having to kickoff from the 20 meant the coverage team had to get down there instead of a touchback. Bates and Trawick and Holmes (boy did we end up missing THOSE GUYS) get down there and six more seconds burn off. We needed all of that because Brees got them to the 44...if he had 5-6 more seconds, he might complete a short pass and Lutz may have walked it off on us from like 55 or 56 yards. Instead, he has to make a 61 yard FG and just misses it. Those little things add up to wins. Compare all that to how we lost all those close games in 2020. That's how little the difference can be from being 7-9 or 8-8 to 12-4 and a playoff team.

[@johnherkert5324]

I remember watching that game on TV. When they went for 2 at the end I was screaming not to do it, take the game to OT. When they made it I was screaming, "Your'e a genius. That's why you are there and I am here." Very fast turn around of emotion s. LOL

[@rldn1]

Love this game

[@larrymorgan7997]

37:45 That’s my Quarterback 😭

[@rondellasvisuals707]

2016 offense was the best offense we had since 2002. 2016 defense gave up 1000 yards in the first two games. 500 yds here and 500 yds against Falcons the following week.

[@Raid4life559]

Was at this badass Game

[@lukemizumoto8950]

this season was so magicial shame carr broke his leg :(

[@oakraid76]

Great game! Really miss Papa on the call!

[@jeremiahrose4681]

All the Carr haters for get about the 2016 season and the fact that Carr was mentioned for MVP that year...boy how the years go by and memory goes as well.

[@trumptouchesivanka]

The other thing NO one mentions especially his haters, is that this is the ONLY year he had a somewhat decent defense and not even his best offensive year, and look at how great they were, cuz every year Carr was with the RAIDERS he had the worst defense in the league

[@jeremiahrose4681]

@@trumptouchesivanka You can never mention to Carr haters that the D was piss poor when he was there. They still find a way to blame him for everything. Oh well, he's gone so we move on, but a lot of Carr haters can't move on they love to still hate him, and he has on effect on the Raiders.

[@armandocardenas9486]

We should of kept Gregg Papa

[@rd-pd8xb]

1st defensive series of the season: TURNOVER. But still....same ol’ Raiders: 1st offensive play of the season? Penalty.

[@tylerd1297]

And proceed to give up 1000+ yds of offense the next 8 quarters

[@Beastjimbo]

I still can't believe Del Rio was fired

[@danieltilson4912]

i can

[@nickbigmann5228]

He wasn't that good of a coach, he's more of a coordinator.

[@BreDawg714]

Del Rio lost the locker room that year. Also firing Musgrave was a huge mistake, and promoting Ken Norton Jr. to defensive coordinator was a disaster. Del Rio carried that throughout his head coaching career, firing and promoting from within, promoting coach’s not ready for the promotion

[@JohnDoe-d6j]

IF I WAS SAINTS HEAD COACH DENNIS ALLEN. I WOULD HIRE BILL MUSGRAVE TO BE THE SAINTS OFFENSIVE COORDINATOR. BILL MUSGRAVE S OFFENSE IS PERFECT FOR QB/ 1# DEREK CARR'S SKILLS & STRENGTHS.

[@243Abolerz]

Carr looks different

[@JohnDoe-d6j]

IT'S COACH JACK DEL RIO'S FAULT. DEL RIO SHOULD'VE PULLED DEREK CARR OUTTA THE GAME LATE AGAINST THE COLTS. THE RAIDERS ALREADY HAD THE COLTS GAME WON.

[@garybeck8836]

To this day I always think what could of been if carr never had gotten hurt week 16 in a nothing game against the losing record colts right before we went to the playoffs only to lose to brock osweiler in the first playoff game with us having a 3rd string qb
