‘Take Some Advil:’ Raiders Prepare For Slugfest Against Steelers

The Pittsburgh Steelers better buckle up their chin straps on Sunday because the Las Vegas Raiders sound ready to go.

In his Friday press conference, Raiders head coach Antonio Pierce talked at length about tackling, or the lack thereof, from his team through its first five games. And after what Pierce believes was a solid week of practice, he expects their game against the Steelers to be physical.

“We know we’re going to need to take some Advil before and after the game, this one, because it’s going to hurt,” Pierce said Friday after Raiders practice via the team’s YouTube channel.
