The Oakland Raiders have an average offense if you look at their production over the entire season, with their 21.8 points per game ranking 17th overall, but New England Patriots fans can appreciate that performances in the first quarter of the season can be greatly different from the current level of play and still drag down the season-long figures.
According to Football Outsiders’ DVOA, the Raiders have the 7th ranked passing offense and 11th ranked rushing offense, along with the 31st ranked variance, implying a vastly different offensive production on a week-to-week basis.
The Raiders offense opened up the year by scoring an average of 35.
