Rushing offense against the Bills front

The Raiders have a giant offensive line that had a tough time against the Patriots in Week 3. Gabe Jackson and John Simpson both had tough games getting the running game going. Rodney Hudson was the top run blocker on the day as well as Denzelle Good who filled in for Trent Brown for the second straight week.

The Raiders didn’t have a bad game on offense, but just failed to execute when it mattered. The rushing game needs to get going against the Bills who can come back with quarterback Josh Allen and new offensive weapon Stefon Diggs. The Bills defensive line will have Ed Oliver this week, strengthening the unit, but this is a matchup the Raiders can exploit.

On the season, Josh Jacobs has 252 yards and three touchdowns of the total 362 yards on the season as the team. He practiced in full this week after missing time heading into the New England game, so expect a full dose of Jacobs against a Bills defensive line he should be able to carve up.
