Vin+ 3,121 Posted December 22, 2018 Quote http://hosted.stats.com/fb/preview.asp?g=20181224013&home=13&vis=7 The Raiders have won the last two matchups with the Broncos in Oakland. They have not won three straight home games against Denver since 1988-1994 (seven straight) when they were in Los Angeles. Jon Gruden is 1-10 (.091) against the Broncos, his worst record against any team (min. three games). The Broncos lost to the Browns in Week 15, 17-16, their third game this season decided by a single point (2-1 record, including a 20-19 win over the Raiders in Week 2). Denver had not lost a one-point game since Week 15 of 2009 against Oakland, 20-19. The Raiders fell in Cincinnati in Week 15, 30-16, their eighth loss by two touchdowns or more this season. Oakland is one of three teams, along with Arizona and Miami, which has allowed more than 2000 yards on the ground this season, something that never happened in Gruden's first stint. Von Miller has recorded at least a half-sack in nine straight games, one shy of the team record (Simon Fletcher, twice). Miller has 98.0 sacks for his career, and if he gets 2.0 more in 2018, he would become the third player to reach 100.0 sacks before turning 30, joining Jared Allen and Reggie White. Derek Carr has a 111.6 passer rating when targeting tight ends this season. He has completed 80 of 115 passes to tight ends for 1024 yards, fourth most in the league this season, and 10 touchdowns, tied with Carson Wentz for third most. Denver's offense has been one of the poorest units in the league on third down, converting at a 33.0 percent rate, fifth lowest in the NFL. However, Oakland's defense has allowed opponents to convert 46.1 percent of their third downs, third highest in the league. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Favre4Ever+ 4,476 Posted December 22, 2018 Seems like we have a ton of bad games this week, lol. Broncos have to be annoyed about that loss last week don’t they? Raiders on the other hand are just kinda used to being utterly destroyed. Broncos 24 Raiders 13 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RazorStar 4,025 Posted December 23, 2018 Wouldn't be surprised if we lost this one too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
