big_palooka Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 Raiders look to bounce back after two poor performances. Game 2 of a tough road stretch in the 1:00 ET slot. Has the feel of a must win or kiss the season goodbye. The Colts look to continue their 2 game winning streak, riding high off a stellar performance by Brissett. Keys for a Raider Bounce back: 1) Get Jacobs involved in the passing game 2) Stretch the field and keep the defense honest. 3) Commit to the running game 4) Get off the field on 3rd down 5) Limit the big plays 6) Win the LOS on defense and slow Marlon Mack The Colts are dialed in. They are a well coached, disciplined team and Brissett is playing good ball. They can run the ball behind a physical Oline and can get after you on defense in a variety of ways. Raiders are going to need a focused game plan and need to limit mistakes on the road to have any shot in this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I took my son to last years Miami game when I was stationed in Pensacola. Not the best decision. I hope you have much better luck than me.

agarcia34 Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 No M.Hooker for the Colts but that won’t be an issue if the Raiders don’t attack down field. Raiders need to get Waller the ball it’s that simple. He’s their best target in the passing game. On MNF they came out and targeted him early last two games. They have waited till s*** hit the fan to get him the ball. I am also tired of seeing Richard out there. You drafted Jacobs now use Jacobs like he’s meant to be used. Gruden has botched the handling of Jacobs so bad: If I see Richard fielding punts this game I will turn it off. Cause if that happens it just confirms how stupid our coaching staff is.

If Harris is injured, who do you want fielding punts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NYRaider Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 This week feels like a make or break game for this season, IMO. If we get blown out again we're going to be 1-3 with a very tough stretch against the Bears, Packers, and Texans on the horizon and will probably lose all 3 of those games too.

But he could have been used in the passing game if it was just that. Jacobs is a much better runner than Richard/Washington but in the passing game they can produce as well. So when he's on a snap count (injured), they're going to use him where he makes more of a difference (running). Jacobs hasn't played half the offensive snaps the last 2 weeks.

RaiderX Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 Gruden has addressed the lack of Jacobs in the passing game do hopefully hes also healthy and involved. Also curious to see if Leonard plays for Indy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think people forgot that Jacobs was dealing with the Flu/cold and a minor injury. I remember the commentators saying something that the coaching staff limiting his touches due to reserving his energy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
