Raiders 2022 schedule release: What is the toughest stretch?

Weeks 4 and 5

Week 4 is another welcome home game, although the opponent will not feel this same kind of love. The Denver Broncos and their new look offense revolved around Wilson will look to take the field and provide a spoiler against the Raiders in their second contest at home.

It will be interesting to see how Jones who has 16.5 sacks in his career against Wilson, will team with the surging Maxx Crosby to stop the big-play ability of Wilson on his new team.

Week 5 makes all Raider Nation cringe – a visit to Arrowhead Stadium to face off against the Kansas City Chiefs. The Chiefs have not only had the number of the Raiders of recent years but the division as a whole. However, it will be interesting to see how opposing quarterback Patrick Mahomes will fare without one of the league’s best wide receivers in Tyreek Hill, who was traded to Miami in the offseason. Although at the end of the day, it is still Patrick Mahomes.

Comment below what you think will be the toughest matchup for the Raiders this season… Oh, and welcome to the 2022 season!
