Key to the game -
*Keys to the game: The Jets are third in the NFL with 15 takeaways but lost at New England last week with Patriots QB Tom Brady in unadulterated launch mode offering not even the hint of a running game. The Raiders strive for balance, but loosening the slack on QB Derek Carr's leash might be wise after his effort last week. Carr has made it a habit to go after the opposition's top corner each week and CB Darrelle Revis promises to be no exception. Some 300 yards of WR Amari Cooper's rookie-leading total of 519 have come after the catch.
Stopping RB Chris Ivory and keeping WR Brandon Marshall, on pace for 104 catches, from getting behind the defense are the essentials for the Raiders. Jets offensive coordinator Chan Gailey will need to be as patient with the run game as he was last week. Getting Ivory to move the pile and collect plenty of yards after contact should open up things for QB Ryan Fitzpatrick, who will have opportunities to create big plays. - By Jeff Reynolds, The Sports Xchange
The numbers show the Raiders have had one of the better offensive lines in the league this season. And they will be going up against probably the absolute best defensive line. The combination of Muhammad Wilkerson, Sheldon Richardson, and Leonard Williams is stout. They will give the Raiders all they can handle giving Derek Carr time to throw as well as Latavius Murray lanes to run through. It is definitely the Raiders offensive line's toughest task yet this season.
No match-up in the game is more exciting than this one. The rookie phenom Cooper who is coming off winning Rookie of the Week, heads to Revis Island. It's the kind of match-up that you long for as a football fan. Cooper has played well against some of the better corners in the game already such as Patrick Peterson, Pacman Jones, Joe Haden, and Aqib Talib. Now he faces the best. Welcome to the NFL, Rookie. - By Levi Damien
