6-3 record and -28 in point differential. LOL. That's maximizing your point production. Maybe Oz is one of those "just win, baby" QBs you judge on winning percentage (now 11-5 for his career), not on his stats. Seriously, you look at him vs. Bortles and wonder to yourself which one was once a third overall pick.
You could see how much better we looked defensively with Demps and Hal back in the secondary.
Raiders are an interesting matchup. The keys are shutting down the running game and getting a solid job defending Amari Cooper. Oakland should be a team we can move the ball on at get some scoring opportunities. I think we can beat the spread but not as confident we can win the game.
Still, we have an enviable cushion - 1.5 game lead plus the silent 1/2 game of winning head-to-head for a tiebreaker. 3-0 in the division and suddenly, that Packers game doesn't look so impossible to win.
