Weather Report
This is a big game for both teams. The Raiders looked great last week without Gruden. Maybe he was the one holding them back all these years. Star running back Josh Jacobs talked about the lack of anxiety and pressure he felt on the sideline without Gruden there, which allowed the players to be comfortable and play to their best ability. I think they will have an easy time doing that against a weak Eagles team that has no true identity. The Eagles refuse to run the ball despite having a decent back in Miles Sanders - clearly a front office decision carried out by master puppet Nick Sirianni. I believe Hurts will throw the ball a lot today, giving his receivers a good chance to hit on their overs’. One player I think he will target a lot today is Dallas Goedert. Since Ertz left, he is the clear #1 and he is looking for a breakout game after missing last week due to covid protocols. Take Jalen Hurts’ longest completion over 36.5 yards, Dallas Goedert over 49.5 receiving yards, and Hunter Renfrow over 61.5 receiving yards.
