Secondary: D
It’s hard to get much higher than a ‘D’ when you are torched for 406 yards and three touchdowns. If it was not for Daryl Worley’s clutch interception before half and Karl Joseph’s game-saving play on fourth-and-goal, the grade would have been a big fat ‘F.’
It seems like an every week occurrence now that this secondary is burned for a big play. This week, it came from Kenny Golladay, who got open for a 59-yard touchdown. The common trend with the explosive plays seems to be miscommunication — corners thinking they have help over top that is not there. This communication breakdown needs to be figured out fast.

Real fear of Rivers destroying us this week.
 
The Worley INT was amazing, happy to see him becoming a player after going off the rails for a bit there. I actually liked him more than James Bradberry when we drafted both of them in 2016.
 
Conley played really well in his Texans debut I thought. Didn't see the same urgency in his time at Oakland as I saw on weekend.

One of those trades you have to make while he has still had some value, but will still be a kick in the teeth if he turns into a player elsewhere.

Looked like OBJ with that catch. I like Worley a lot, just struggles to bring big guys to ground. Better than our other CBs

Yea Ive always rated his coverage one on one. Tackling was a bit of an issue at Carolina also.
 
Another rookie to maybe play

The Oakland Raiders have activated CB Isaiah Johnson to the 53-man roster, the club announced Monday.
Johnson was selected 129th overall by the Raiders in the 2019 NFL Draft. The 6-foot-2, 210-pound corner spent the first eight weeks of his rookie campaign on Reserve/Injured List after appearing in one game during the preseason.

And it's goodbye again to Marshall

In a corresponding move, the Raiders have released LB Brandon Marshall.

Raiders selected Houston CB Isaiah Johnson with the No. 129 overall pick in the 2019 NFL Draft.
Johnson (6’2/208) played wide receiver before converting to cornerback for his final two seasons, where he started 15 games and logged 18 career pass breakups with four interceptions. Johnson showed No. 1-caliber corner traits at the Combine, blazing 4.4-flat and acing the three-cone drill (6.81) while measuring in with long arms (33"). Johnson remains an obvious work in progress after his late-college position change, but his skill set is that of a starting NFL press corner.


Steal of the draft.

LAS VEGAS —
Despite protests about a “war on the poor,” Las Vegas officials passed a law Wednesday making it illegal for the homeless to sleep on streets when beds are available at established shelters.
The issue spurred emotion and drama, including the ejection by city marshals of several audience members whom Mayor Carolyn Goodman deemed disruptive during a daylong City Council meeting that drew dozens of time-limited comments.
Most people spoke against the law before the 5-2 council vote. The measure will apply to the city’s downtown urban core, not the tourist-heavy Las Vegas Strip, which is overseen by a different jurisdiction.
Goodman, the sponsor of the measure, called it imperfect but necessary to deal with what officials and downtown business owners characterize as a homeless crisis.

“If we can build stadiums, then we can build housing for the homeless,” George Allen, a self-described “working homeless” home-care worker, told the council.

Allen was referring to a $2-billion, 65,000-seat football stadium set to open next year for the relocated Oakland Raiders. Taxpayers are contributing $750 million to the project through hotel room taxes.
City officials report spending more than $35 million on homeless-related services last year, including outreach, fire, police and community services.

Jacobs is a star.
DLine was exceptional, especially late.

Joyner is still s**t.

Crosby was good. Wonder if Key going down meant he had more chances tonight.
