Kolton Miller and Brandon Parker

Kolton Miller has been the team’s left tackle all season long, and while he has played well, it appears his knee injury is really hampering what he can do on the football field. The Raiders need a big game out of him this weekend, as the Colts do not have a great pass rush, and the youngster is coming off his first NFL bye week.

On the other side, Brandon Parker is going to get another start, and he needs to be better against the pass rush. With Kelechi Osemele likely out again this week, the offensive line is going to be patchwork on the inside, which means Miller and Parker better hold their own on Sunday.
