Well McGloin didn't make it out of the first half before he was injured but I badly misjudged how the team would handle things without Carr. Carr got sacked only 16 times all season and McGloin was taking a beating as Donald Penn went from pro bowl LT to turnstile. There is no way to explain how a team with 6 pro bowlers in their lineup could be so dominated outside of the fact they picked up their ball and went home. Plenty of teams have still managed to put up a fight without their starting QB but that was one of the few times you will see a collective quit by an entire roster. I'm not kidding when I say a spot player Brynden Trawick was their best player by far.
Hard to predict that level of quit but now that I've seen it I have to agree with those that said the Raiders have no chance of beating anyone in the playoffs. I was wrong.
