On the surface, the Oakland Raiders are 2-1, and the arrow is pointed way upward for this long suffering franchise. Which is great news for the team and its fans. Even better, the Raiders have one of the league’s most potent and dynamic offenses – it checks in as the league’s second best unit, averaging 436 yards per game.
The Raiders have the second best running attack and a top ten passing offense. And along with some solid veterans like Michael Crabtree and Bruce Irvin, they also have some of the league’s brightest young stars in Derek Carr, Amari Cooper, and Khalil Mack.
