    We Did It — Football Starts Sunday | Week 1 vs Miami, Depth Chart & Maxx Crosby | Raiders Fan Radio Ep. 424

    Episode 424 of Raiders Fan Radio is live from Murph’s Fan Cave with Murf and Michelle Sweat. Swag Jeff is out coaching Charlie’s softball game, so the two-legged stool is holding it down. Football is finally here. The Raiders open Sunday against the Miami Dolphins, the depth chart is out, and the hosts break down why this year feels different. They’re not obsessed with win totals. They want to see real progression instead of the mid-season fade that’s been the story since Gruden. The long-term plan under John Spytek is in place — love it or not — and they compare the build to the 2014 Raiders. Also in this episode: Why they like Las Vegas to beat Miami in Week 1 Kyle Brandt picking Maxx Crosby for Defensive Player of the Year The Dolphins left tackle calling Maxx a hothead (and Murph’s 3-sack prediction) Ashton Jeanty 2,000 all-purpose yards talk Episode 424 tied to Derek Carr (4) and Charles Woodson (24) Chat shout-outs and One Nation Foundation donations Live every Tuesday at 4 p.m. PT / 7 p.m. ET.
