49ers Rout Raiders 38-17: Fire Rob Leonard?

The Raiders are 4-5. They lost 38-17 to the 49ers, turned the ball over five times, and gave up 30-plus points for the sixth game in a row. Scott says that’s a franchise record, with 214 points allowed over the stretch, about 35.7 a game.

Scott Gulbransen and Murf from Raiders Fan Radio start with the defense. Is it players, scheme or coaching, and does Rob Leonard make it to the end of the season? Murf, a Bay Area kid who wore his Oakland Raiders sweatshirt for this one, gives the emotional version. Then the offense: Brock Bowers and Michael Mayer fumbling away points, Kirk Cousins’ pick-six to open the third quarter and a late interception, and Mike Washington Jr. finishing with negative yards.

The big debate is Fernando Mendoza. Murf makes the case that the Raiders should play the rookie now and stop waiting for a perfect time. Scott lays out why he thinks the staff sticks with Cousins anyway, and they talk through Maxx Crosby, Cousins and the trade deadline.

Raider Sky, VJ, Misha, Rossi and Tariq call in on coaching, play calling, the defensive line, Jackson Powers-Johnson’s role, and whether this team can win nine. Murf closes with the One Nation Foundation and Raider Dad, and the Seahawks are next.
