Greetings, Raider Nation! Tonight the second week of the NFL season begins, with a Thursday night matchup between bitter divisional rivals Cincinnati and Baltimore. Both teams were victorious last week as the Ravens walloped Buffalo and the Bengals took care of the Colts.
Both teams are a half game ahead of the Browns and Steelers, who hilariously tied in Cleveland last week. After this game, one of them will be alone in first place in the AFC North. Both of these teams are future Raiders opponents later in the season, so this game will provide some valuable insight into both of them.
