Disrespected yet again heading into the season, the Raiders have been solid out the gate. The offense has been efficient, which seems to have surprised many people. Most have forgotten the Raiders offense has been pretty good for a couple of seasons, but the defense has been atrocious. The 2021 Raiders now has a defense that has earned respect, featuring playmakers at each level. However, they must play this best game of the season if the Raiders are to upset the Chargers tonight.
While it is a home game for the Chargers, it could be a Raiders-heavy crowd tonight. Still, that is something Justin Herbert and company must be used to at this point. They are coming off a massive road win over the Chiefs. The defense has been pretty good this season, forcing opponents into mistakes. However, the strength of this team is the offense. While the weapons for Herbert may not be deep, the starters are terrific and can be compared to just about any in the NFL.
