Last 23 years have been hard. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] NaClKnight@piefed.zip 2 points 8 months ago (1 child) Im in my thirties and my first memories of us are the Tuck Rule and losing a SB to the Buccs. Our highlight was that time Derek Carr almost played in a playoff game. I remember a handfulof quarterbacks, both drafted (Jamarcus Russell, Derek Carr, Terrelle Prior) and retread (Rich Gannon, Aiden O'Connell, Carson Palmer) and a whole lot of my dad yelling at the TV, but not a whole lot of winning. It has been a historically futile era for us.... permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] Raiderkev@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago Same, I was a freshman in highschool for that super bowl. The last 24 years have had glimmers of hope, but we always find a way to fuck it up. We were looking great in HS, then they decided to trade Gruden away, and aside from that 1 super bowl, it's been just downhill ever since. Hopefully Mendoza pans out and we turn it around, but it is hard to be optimistic anymore. permalink fedilink source parent
