FWIW....my numbers had the Raiders only 3% below average based on scoring allowed vs the offences played as of week 15 of last season. Personally, I find the rankings based on yards gained/allowed rediculous. I can not find the final few weeks numbers, but it gives a good baraometer IMO. There are better advanced metrics for sure.Last edited by Panamamike; 08-16-2017, 04:06 PM.

Originally posted by Boltjolt View PostI don't know but our defense was ranked higher. They may have had more defensive turnovers and sacks but I didn't look but before I looked at their rankings I knew they weren't good against the run except when they played us. Combined we only rushed for 145 on them.

I agree. They are much improved but no playoff wins to their credit and 1 year above 500 IIRC doesnt make them a powerhouse in my book. They do have some weapons but id stack our offense against theirs any day. Our Ds are similar but we have a few more strengths than they do when healthy.
Should be a good matchup. Just hope we stay healthy to that week.
