Las Vegas Raiders vs. Denver Broncos: 2021 Week 6 offensive grades

Offensive line

This was hands down the best performance by the offensive line so far this season. The Raiders rushed for a season-high 86 yards and opened up enough holes for both Kenyan Drake and Josh Jacobs to have rushing touchdowns.

Derek Carr was also under the least amount of duress so far, and also suffered zero sacks from any Broncos defensive lineman or linebacker. With Alex Leatherwood at right guard and Brandon Parker for the second straight game, they both seem to be getting more comfortable with that configuration on the offensive line as this was Leatherwood’s highest grades game by Pro Football Focus’s standards.

Raiders Game Sunday: Raiders vs Philadelphia odds and prediction for NFL Week 7 game

Coming off a monster win on the road, the Las Vegas Raiders will play host to the Philadelphia Eagles in their final game before their bye week.

This young offensive line needs a little more time to gel together, but once they do I believe this offense will return to the top ten offense they were last season.

Grade: B
