no way thier line is a mess. they went undeafted in pre-season with all thier back ups playing. if your winning games with back ups its a great sign cause it means you got great players, and depth everywere. 

if a key player gets hurt for raiders its as simple as next man up,and they can still win games.  unlike the jags raiders know how to score TDS as well.

but snowy you forget that the raiders played that extra game in Canton. This is going to cause fatigue as the season drags on. They may start strong, but will likely fizzle out before week 17. Those extra reps are gonna wear their backups out.

Thankfully, our backups already proved they aren't worth a darn, so we won't be duped in similar fashion. We'll be relying on waiver claims throughout the year, picking up guys that only played 2 or three preseason games instead of 4. I look for us to finish much stronger because of it. But, keep in mind this strategy will only work if we sign players who were on teams that had winning records in the preseason.
