I had doubts about the Raiders this year.
But if Oakland beats the Chicago Bears this weekend they will be 3-1...their best opening to a season since 2002 when those Raiders started 4-0 enroute to an 11-5 season and reached the Super Bowl.
Derek Carr has back-to-back 300 yard games.
Latavius Murray is 5th in the league in rushing.
And Amari Cooper has thus far proven to be every bit as good as people thought (8th in receiving yards)
Their next 8 games after Chicago are:
Denver
San Diego
New York Jets
Pittsburgh
Minnesota
Detroit
Tennessee
Kansas City
Are the Raiders a potential playoff team brehs?
