Week 7: Vs Oakland Raiders

If you’re a Packer fan upset with any negative publicity geared towards the team this offseason, but grateful you aren’t a Raiders fan. That organization is going through a massive rebuild and just Friday there were reports of coach Jon Gruden and GM Mike Maycock sending their scouts home due to lack of trust . They traded away one of the best defensive players in the league and also their number 1 receiver in Amari Cooper (no matter how “bad” he was on Oakland, I still think he’s a good receiver).

All internal matters aside, this football team has the best receiver in the NFL in Antonio Brown, a deep threat beside him in Tyrell Williams, and… that’s about it. I like Derek Carr, but he just hasn’t been himself since breaking his leg in 2016. There was a lot of hype surrounding him before the injury, and I’m not really sure whether it’s him to blame or the dysfunctional system that’s going on over there on the west coast. He can make plays, definitely, but for $25 mil a year?

Regardless, Antonio Brown is good enough to where he’ll make his share of plays, but the Packers should have a field day against their defense. They don’t have any bonafide playmakers other than newly acquired Lamarcus Joyner. Packers should smoke them this game.
