The Oakland Raiders should be fresh coming off a bye week, but they are in for a tough matchup as they head to Green Bay to face off against the 5-1 Packers.

The Raiders are in the middle of their long road trip, but after a bye week and a week off of practice after a Week 5 victory over the Chicago Bears, the team should be refreshed. Before the bye week, the Raiders were playing the best football they have played in a long time, defeating the Indianapolis Colts and Chicago Bears in back-to-back games.

The Green Bay Packers are one of the best teams in the NFL right now, holding a 5-1 record with victories over teams like the Bears, Vikings, Broncos, Cowboys, and Lions. The team is led by future hall of fame quarterback Aaron Rodgers, but the real surprise of the Packers this season is their defense.

This is going to be one of the biggest matchups of Week 7, as the Packers are currently winning their division, and the Raiders are in the hunt for a playoff spot, as well. Let’s take a look at four reasons why the Oakland Raiders will pull out another big win against the Green Bay Packers.
