ONE-ON-ONE: Unique scene in the
#Raiders
locker room after the win.
Hall of Famers of the past joining in the celebration. Cigars in hand too.
Caught up with Charles Woodson who says Antonio Pierce has brought back something this organization has been missing for a long time.
Just found out the backstory.
These two kids lost their father in late March. Massive Knights fans.
Zach reached out and invited them to the game and they came down from Reno this morning. Now he is giving them a tour of the locker room.
This is what hockey is all about.

Antonio Pierce doesn't deserve to be torn down or called an "embarrassment" like one certain outlet did this week.
The man is changing the culture in a sport where there isn't enough representation for head coaches.

Caught up with Aidan O'Connell today to talk about the new

hires.
Asked him about the possibility of the team now bringing in a new QB.
"It's my job to keep my job."

"Just don't got enough guys that are fully bought into that right now. I think people like the idea, but when it's time to execute - it don't turn out that way."

The hit put him in concussion protocol.

Davante Adams said Jarrett Stidham apologized to the team for the loss when they all got in the locker room after the pick at the end.
The entire team shot that down immediately and said absolutely not.

"We wanted to do it for AP....no matter how this go we gonna play with everything we got for this man."
The leaders of this team love Antonio Pierce. It's clear.

Davante Adams on cigars in the winning locker room Sunday:
"Anybody that's dealt with the type of adversity we have this year...they'll never understand why we had that feeling and why it led to cigars being lit."

got shutout by Vikings 15 days ago in what many guys called a sickening and embarrassing game.
Instead of going in the tank, they went out and put up a franchise record in points and then beat the defending champs for the first time in 3 years.
Antonio Pierce effect.
Maxx Crosby this season:
⚫️53 pressures (1st in NFL)
⚫️9.5 sacks (2nd)
⚫️40 hurries (1st)
⚫️13 tackles for loss (tied-1st)
Enough underrating the man.
Front runner for DPOY.

The fact this man had essentially the game-winning pick with a BROKEN HAND boggles the mind.
Our angle of the Robert Spillane pick and celebration will make your night.

“Now you’re seeing 11 bad boys huntin”
Antonio Pierce still feels like there’s a different ceiling this defense can reach.
Says they don’t want to use the word “great” yet. Fair to say a guy who’s been on a historic defense can speak to it best
#Raiders
Vegas has had pro sports for 6 years.
They have been to 5 championships.
They have won 3 titles - all in the last 12 months.
And it’s just the beginning.
"I don't got time to just wait around...It's not my mentality to take all season to figure it out."
-Davante Adams says last year was about talk. This year is about doing it.

Many of the
#Raiders
Hall of Famers said Antonio Pierce brought back the culture of being a Raider.
That can’t be lost in this.
The organization prioritized stability in leadership over a shiny, new toy. Whether or not Antonio Pierce works out long term, it’s hard to have any…
“No disrespect to them but it was more about what we were doing.”
-Davante Adams on offense slowing up
Went on to say the difference after being up 14 is “frustrating and confusing too.”

Robert Spillane "shattered" his hand on Monday night in Detroit. Had surgery on Tuesday. Played on Sunday.
Says his inspiration comes from teammates who have been through cancer, brutal injuries, and that playing through it was…
Got to chat with Tyree Wilson about the start to his career. Really honest about his performance.
-doesn't use no offseason as excuse
-says the game is slowing down
-admits his get off to start year was "pretty bad" (sees improvement now)
-he blocks out noise/criticism
#Raiders
Davante Adams on if there's younger guys he's taking under his wing:
"No. They're on their own. I was on my own - they're on their own." 😂😂
(Joking aside says Tre Tucker makes it a point to pick his brain daily

"The best teams I've ever been on - player ran."
Antonio Pierce is relying on the leaders to take charge from here on out.
"Us against the world."
