We're back with our midweek mailbag as hosts Scott Gulbransen and Moe Moton take your comments on questions. This week's show includes questions on Josh McDaniels, Chandler Jones, Darren Waller and if the Raiders are too vanilla on offense. Plus: lighting round with the guys.

Our first batch of questions on Wednesday includes one on Chandler Jones and his performance during the first half of the loss to the Chiefs. Moe tells us why he came alive and why the Raiders interior defensive line played their best half.

Fans continue to express their disappointment in Raiders TE Darren Waller. Scott says some criticism is fair but those lashing out at his Las Vegas Aces girlfriend Kelsey Plum are off base.
