The Oakland Raiders will take on the Denver Broncos in Week 2, and here are four players who must do better if they are going to come away with the road win.

It was a pretty tough opener for the Oakland Raiders this past Monday night, as the Los Angeles Rams came into the Oakland Coliseum and beat them by 20 points. While it was a tie score up until the 2:30 mark in the third quarter, the Raiders have to be worried about some of the stuff they saw on both sides of the ball.

This weekend, the Raiders will look to get into the win column against division rival Denver, as they head to Mile High to take on Case Keenum and company. The Broncos beat the Seattle Seahawks at home this past weekend, and will be looking to win for the 11th time in the last 14 meetings between these two teams.

Divisional games are huge, and you never want to get started with a number in the loss column before one in the win column. The Broncos have to be riding high after their Week 1 win, and the place should be rocking for sure for this rivalry game.

Here are four players who need to play better in order for the Raiders to have any shot on Sunday afternoon.
