Silver And Black Pride
The Raiders have had sustained success at this position
Say what you want about the the overall success of the Raiders in this century.
We know all the gory details. We know it hasn’t been great. But there is one area where the Silver and Black have been absolutely dominant in this century.
Punting.
Check out this recent tweet by the Associated Press:
And this one:
Wow, that’s pretty incredible. Lechler starred for the Raiders from 2000-12 and brilliant. Now, the Raiders are in the midst of another stellar punter run by A.J. Cole, who has been starring for the Raiders since 2019 and recently signed a contract extension.
So, the Raiders’ dominance at the position will continue for the foreseeable future.
Of course, the Raiders were also blessed with Pro Football Hall of Fame punter Ray Guy from 1973-86. Just an incredible history at the position for this storied franchise.
