Oakland Raiders Week 7 review: 3 stars and 3 duds
The Oakland Raiders were humbled by the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field on Sunday. Here are three players who shined and three players whose stock dipped after Sunday’s loss.
The AFC West is as wide open as it will ever be, so each of the upcoming games on the schedule is vital. A win against the Green Bay Packers on Sunday would have been a significant boost in the race for the AFC West, but the Oakland Raiders were humbled, to put it nicely. Despite the new system, they still have number 12 under center at Lambeau Field.
Aaron Rodgers answered all fantasy football prayers and then some on Sunday. He’s a Super Bowl champion, league MVP, and surefire Hall of Famer for a reason. He torched the Raiders secondary all day onward to a star-studded stat line.
As a result, the Raiders simply could not afford to make any mistakes on offense, the margin for error was too small when going up against the likes of Aaron Rodgers. Alas, that was not the case on Sunday, where the game turned for the worse due to a crucial turnover.
Here are the three stars and three duds from Sunday’s loss to the Packers.
