I get that but then again what's to destroy this season for the Raiders? The moment the schedule was announced the season was essentially destroyed. After next week's home game against the Chiefs the Raiders won't play in Oakland again until November 3rd. That's a month and a half where a team does not play a single game in their own stadium. Even if the Raiders were a division contender this schedule would likely do them in. Brown on the field opens things up for Williams, Renfrew, Waller, Jacobs, etc and should help them out in their first seasons with the team and should leave no excuses for Carr so Gruden can make the call on whether to start again at QB with one of their 1st round picks. It was always a throwaway season as the team is building to open in Vegas with a competitive team so this Brown stuff while annoying isn't something I'm worried about in regards to damaging the team. I highly doubt Brown is a Raider next season and if he is that's probably a good thing because it means the season went well.
