Is this the season the Oakland Raiders franchise snaps out their playoff drought? It’s common knowledge that the Raiders haven’t reached the postseason since their Super Bowl appearance in 2002, but they seem to be positively trending around NFL media outlets, as some think they will be the surprise team of 2015.
Derek Carr will be relied upon to take a major leap in year two, especially with his new playmaking wide receiver Amari Cooper, who was selected fourth overall in the 2015 NFL Draft. With a defense led by Khalil Mack, Oakland is actually looking good on both sides of the ball for once.
With the hype surrounding this year’s group, it’s difficult to wait for Week 1 of the regular season. For now, the Raiders’ preseason slate of games can feed the hunger of Raider Nation.
