Jets @ Raiders
Posted: Sat Oct 18, 2008 6:56 pm
Coming off a victory against Bengals we are up against the Raiders in Oakland. Everyone knows that the Raiders have some players that can make you go wow, but as a team they have no chemistry. As of now they have a banged up secondary meaning it can be a long day for them. Farve looks comfortable right now with us, that is a good sign. The Raiders have been lit up through the air and this week it should be no different.
Farve Returns to Oakland
The last time Farve was in Oakland it was the memorable Monday Night Football game where he threw for 399 yards and four touchdowns. While we should not expect those numbers, we should expect Farve having a great day. Coles and Cotchery will probably face one on one coverage so it might be safe to assume some excitement in this game.
McFadden
He is healthy and will receive a steady dose of carries for the Raiders. Though one thing that we might see him do is run the wildcat formation in which he ran a lot at Arkansas. However its the running back rotation we have to pay attention to. McFadden, Fargas and Bush, we need to identify them every play.
Pass Rush
We are second in the league right now in sacks, back to back games with five sacks. The Raiders have Russell at QB who is prone to holding onto the ball to long and struggles to feel the pressure. Lets keep it up on him.
