The more their offense improves, the more teams will pass against them and make their secondary look worse and worse.
I know that Raider fans are going to want my head after a statement like that, so just know that it is nothing against the Raiders, it's just going to happen. |
As a raider fan, I can't disagree. the more teams pass, the more plays they will make. No matter how good your pass defense is. I don't think the Raiders will be a bad pass defending team. They will rank high but maybe not as high as last year. I'd rather focus on the run defense. With the solid players we have in the secondary, we'll be fine. DT is there we need to be concerned. |

You took the words out of my mouth.
And incase anything should happen to either Darius or Huff, the Raiders have Shweigert behind them, who is very solid and i s a FS that played oposite Huff as a SS last year.
Darius went to the perfect team/best situation.

| sure its a nice signing, a seasoned veteran for a young and talented defensive backfield but i wonder why DD didnt sign with a superbowl contender? he's realistically got only a couple years left and even though i'm a russell fan, i dont see them in the title hunt for at least 3 years, so why not try to get a ring? |
