More than that, every star has to deal with a raging opposing fan base, even if they’re not as outspoken and provocative as Newton could’ve been at times. With that in mind, the fans asked him to name the ultimate trash-talking fan base, and he had two clear candidates. In the latest edition of his 4th and 1 show, he claimed that he didn’t even feel safe when he had to visit the Philadelphia Eagles. https://t.co/EOJSy3pXI1 ..read more

(Photo by Mike Ehrmann/Getty Images)   The Las Vegas Raiders have some decisions to make about their roster. They have the No. 13 pick, and while some think they could pursue a new quarterback with that selection, most of the top guys might already be gone by then. That puts Gardner Minshew in a position to, at least, compete to be the starter. Notably, he recently admitted that the Raiders were always his first choice in free agency. Talking to new teammate Maxx Crosby on his podcast, the former Jacksonville Jaguars star revealed that it was actually an easy choice for him, and it didn’t ..read more

(Photo by Ethan Miller/Getty Images)   The Las Vegas Raiders finished last season on a high note, but they still have plenty of work to do. They have two contending teams in the same division, and they don’t want to get caught behind in the race for the AFC West. That’s why new GM Tom Telesco acknowledges that they could use some help all over the roster (via Around the NFL). “We could use a little bit of help everywhere,” Telesco said. “I don’t think any position is precluded from being drafted this year.” Raiders GM Tom Telesco on draft: 'We could use a little bit of help everywhere'ht ..read more

(Photo by Jonathan Bachman/Getty Images)   One of the dream scenarios this draft season for a lot of people is LSU’s Jayden Daniels being selected by the Las Vegas Raiders in some way, shape, or form. This is the case because he played for current Raiders head coach Antonio Pierce at Arizona State early in his college career before he transferred to LSU and won the Heisman Trophy. Daniels was asked on Night Cap with NFL greats Shannon Sharpe and Chad Johnson about possibly playing for the Raiders. “I want to go there. I want to go wherever my name is called,” Daniels told the NF ..read more

According to NFL Network’s Daniel Jeremiah, the Raiders have their eye on Washington’s Michael Penix Jr. “The Raiders have done a lot of work on Penix…I would say of the teams with the most willingness to move up, I would go Vikings one, I would probably go Raiders two, I would go Broncos third in that group,” Jeremiah stated on The Pat Mc ..read more

(Photo by Ethan Miller/Getty Images)   Every year, the NFL Draft has that polarizing player with high concerns and high potential. Of course, this edition wasn’t going to be the exception to that rule. Michael Penix Jr. has been talked about for months now, with some stating that he should be a late-first or early-second-round pick because of his age and all the durability concerns and others gushing about his talent. Notably, that includes former QB Chase Daniel, who recently broke down his tape and was in absolute awe of it. Daniel went as far as to state that he wouldn’t be surprised i ..read more

(Photo by Kyle Rivas/Getty Images)   The Las Vegas Raiders ended the 2023 NFL season on a high note, finishing with a 5-4 record with interim head coach Antonio Pierce who was eventually promoted to the position permanently. Under Pierce, the Raiders showed a renewed sense of toughness, physicality and joy on the field and that should serve them well when their 2024 NFL campaign kicks off later this year. Las Vegas will be busy the next week preparing for the 2024 NFL Draft where they’ll have a chance to draft some impact players. The Raiders still need a long-term answer at quarterback ..read more

(Photo by Andy Lyons/Getty Images)   After firing head coach Josh McDaniels on Halloween this past season, the Las Vegas Raiders chose to give Antonio Pierce a shot to earn the job by taking over as interim head coach. Ultimately, after becoming a fan favorite and beloved by all his players while helping turn the team around, Pierce was hired by the Raiders to be the next head coach moving forward, which has resulted in a culture change in Las Vegas. With Pierce in the fold, the team has taken on a new attitude that resembles the Raiders of old and has revitalized this franchise, with som ..read more
