The Host on Mad Dog Sports Radio for Sirius XM and host of the official Raiders podcast joined Kyle Bailey to give us a preview of what to expect from the newly minted Las Vegas Raiders, and which players Panthers fans should keep their eye on.
The first thing that JT The Brick discussed was how pivotal this ear is for Gruden and the rebuild he has entering his 3rd year as JT said that this is a coincided effort between Gruden and Mayock being in lockstep with each other with the principles of the Patriots. They are also rebuilding by getting some of the best prospects from schools like Clemson and Alabama along with a strong offensive line.
Kyle then wondered how good this offense is for the Raiders and JT was quick to tell Kyle:
"The linchpin of this offense is RB Josh Jacobs. He has a chance to be the best RB in football behind McCaffrey and the Raiders think that Jacobs can be like McCaffrey but a heavier runner. So you add that with Carr with an offensive line that is loaded they feel like they can move the pile with the O-Line and then attack downfield, so the Raiders have no excuse on the offense, the question is on the defensive side of the ball which has been their Achilles heel for the past few years."
JT also explained to Kyle that if the Panthers want to win this game they might want to go after the secondary which includes young pieces like rookie Damon Arnette, along with 2nd year players Trayvon Mullen, and Johnathan Abrham who got hurt in the first game last year.
