#11. @ Seattle (Week 9)
Quality of Opponent
No bigger measuring stick than playing the defending Super Bowl champions on the road which is what the Seahawks present to all of their opponents. Keeping most of their talent for another year I wouldn’t expect Seattle to be dropping off during their title defending season much which means they will remain as the scariest opponent to face in the league.
Rivalry
Former division rivals, and by rivals I mean the Raiders used the push Seattle around back in the day.
Location, Location, Location
Seattle have great fans, and the announcers will let you know how great they are for the whole game.
Chance of Victory (Extremely Early Prognosis)
Seattle generally murder even the best of teams at home, so the Raiders will need their luck to come out of this game. Have we mentioned the Raiders have the toughest schedule in the league this season yet? I think we have.
