The Raiders were an AFC wildcard team in 2023 but they made lots of changes in the draft and Jack Tatum and Max Crosby are expected to deliver big and they put more Hubbard one of their originals back at fullback in the backfield to block for Bo Jackson. The Raiders are loaded as Dave Casper searching for the 10,000 yard mark which is Superior in any League.

Just noticed that when I talk into the phone obviously it doesn't always come out the way we intend. That was Marv Hubbard not more Hubbard lol

Great post thank you

Glad you enjoyed it. 🏈👍

 

BTW, Kyle Nutt is currently working on the 84' San Francisco 49ers for me. If I get a chance in the future (hopefully sooner than later), I plan to ask him to work on Raiders dynasty between 1976 - 1983. I'm not picking a specific year for them, because I plan to include players from the 76' team like Jack Tatum, as well as players from the 83' team like Howie Long and Marcus Allen. The Lineman will be 67' Big Men, FB's, TE's and LB's will be Beenutt figures and the backs and receivers will be Hait Repro..

It'll be a couple months, but I'll post pics so you can see if I get those done. Kyle is a pro....

TBH, I didn't like em' growing up cause they kicked the Skins but in the 83' Super Bowl, lol.

However, in the past year I've been reviewing old games from the 80's and 70's because I'm trying to build a league that's mainly based around Super Bowl winners from that era. Now mind you, I was too young to have seen the Raiders in 1980 and 1976, so I'm not sure I even realized they had won it then...

Now that I've been delving into the players and teams from those decades, I have to say how impressed I am with that franchise, LOL. There were so many great athletes from Cliff Branch, Jack Tatum and Ted Hendricks to Marcus Allen, Howie Long and Tom Hendricks, that I'm not sure how I missed them all these years. And then when I found out John Madden was the Head Coach of the 76' Raiders? Wowzers. 

Not saying they'll ever become my favorite team of course, but I can honestly look back now at the era and admire their legacy as one of the best franchises in NFL history. 

The Raiders were loaded with talent and great coaching and I like their bad boy approach to football.
