Interesting to see which QBs get the majority of snaps. Does Oakland play the steady McGroin who has some experience but lacks the arm or do they take a chance on rookie Connor Cook who some projected as the Texans' top draft choice before the Osweiler signing? Cook was full of big plays and bad mistakes against the Broncos. I think he gives Oakland the better chance against our defense but can also cause big turnovers if he gets out of control.
Houston, meanwhile, got a rebound performance from Osweiler although in another loss while Savage may or may not be healthy and may or may not be able to move the offense.
The more creative OC may win this one. I think the Raiders have the better weapons if the QB can get them the football.
Didn't see anything official but it looks like Oakland-Houston will be the Saturday afternoon game followed by Detroit-Seattle Saturday night then Miami-Pittsburgh and NY Giants-Green Bay on Sunday.
