It’s been a long time since the Las Vegas Raiders were a contending team, and this is looking like a year where things aren’t going to change.
Swapping Derek Carr for Jimmy Garoppolo hasn’t done much to straighten the course of the ship.
That’s why diehard Raiders fan Damian Lillard just couldn’t take it anymore and called the team out on Twitter.
No way we this garbage man.

The Raiders fell to 0-3 after losing to the Pittsburgh Steelers at home.
They were favored by three points, yet were unable to regain the lead after going up 7-0 early in the game.
As expected, T.J. Watt caused havoc at the line of scrimmage and kept Garoppolo and company on their toes for most of the game, and their defense couldn’t do a lot outside of Maxx Crosby.
Falling to 0-3 in a division like the AFC West will be a steep hill to climb, even if the Denver Broncos have the same record and the Los Angeles Chargers are 1-2.
The Raiders have a lot of soul-searching to do, and it will take a lot to turn this franchise around.
Davante Adams continues to dominate and establish himself as an elite offensive force in the game, but that’s definitely not enough to get the job done.
