Big advantage for the Raiders. The Giants came off 6 days as well while we came off 14 days and they smashed us. That game was not as close as the score indicates.

That will be the difference. They are getting pressure, but they need to get some strip sacks. Washington oline has protected pretty good this year. They are also running the ball more now.

Geezy Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 we win and were right back in it. we SHOULD win this one, but you know how that goes. i think it comes down to who establishes the run, if we can stay a head of the chains with the run game, i dont hate our chances.

Washington is a pass funnel defense I think it’s going to be on Carr to have a big game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Read we were 3-13 on 3rd down we need to be about 50% or better on 3rd. Carr needs more tds a couple of missed fgs vs dall and our season would’ve been over.

big_palooka Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 This game will go as Carr goes. If he's locked in, he can be the best on any Sunday. I've never seen a QB with such obvious body language. You can sense early on what kind of game it's going to be for him. Getting him off to a good start and confident is paramount to the Raiders success lately. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KC leads the league in 3rd down percent at 51% - I guarantee you they do not average 9+ yards Also, we rarely get the calls, but it amazing how much easier the game is when calls go your way. haha. Bolded are the 3, 3rd down failed attempts you can blame Carr on IMO. All the others were way too long. Now dont get me wrong, Carr is to blame as to why we are in those 3rd and longs. But so is our rushing game, and Oline, and play calling. Carr doesnt need more TDs, the Raiders need more TDs, I dont care if Jacobs has 40tds on a season and Carr none. I just want to win. Mariotta needs redzone touches. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not only Carr but it's also Carr. haha 100% we need to improve from 34% But to say we need to be at or above 50% or 3rd down Conversions, when this year only KC and Buff are there (51.52% and 50%) and last year only GB was (50.97%) seems a little silly to me. Not only are those Os built with way more talent, and all 3 QBs clearly better then Carr. . . I would bet they are also in way more manageable 3rd downs then us too. Again some of it is on Carr why we are always in those 3rd and longs, but running for 1 and 2 yards on first and second down doesnt help. If we get to 40% we would be league average. Lets start with asking for that before pushing for best in league. Edited December 1, 2021 by BackinBlack 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
