ALAMEDA, Calif. -- Sure, the Oakland Raiders have seven sacks in five games, but they want more. Especially with designated pass-rushers Bruce Irvin and Khalil Mack combining for just three of them.
Defensive tackle Stacy McGee leads Oakland with 2 ½ sacks.
Help may be on the horizon, though, as defensive end Mario Edwards Jr., who is on injured reserve, may begin practicing next Wednesday and, should all go according to plan, could start playing in Week 9.
That is, if his hip cooperates and the Raiders designate Edwards as their one player to return from IR.
