2 wins in the past 3 games, despite being whooped by the Rams who put up back to back shutouts. This team looks much more competitive since they canned Dennis Allen. The defense players brought in in FA, minus Woodley have looked good. Offensive line upgrades have done well. Derek Carr is the QB of the future. Need more offensive weapons, but Latavius Murray has finally gotten some playing time and has produced much more than McFadden and Jones-Drew. Young TE in Rivera is catching on and improving. Biggest key? Third down completion % of the opposition. Went from 52% to 27% the past 7 games. Anyway, 2 wins this season, both against opponents with winning records. Something Dennis Allen didn't achieve in his 2+ years. I like Sparano. The team is playing different football under him. Tough draw against the Broncos this week. They looked great for a quarter and a half against them in the first meeting before it went south, but I remain positive, tune in and cheer on my raiders!
Disclaimer: I am a diehard Raider fan. Can thank my dad for that one. Pretty cool I get to watch two former huskies (Moore and albeit on IR Branch) play for my favorite team.
