The Raiders passing game looked terrible all last season and in the preseason. Despite the Raiders running game averaging over 150 yards per sim, they are still home underdogs to the Broncos. The Raiders pass defense is talented and is holding Jay Cutler to under 200 yards and if they do this the Raiders win nearly 50 percent of the time. However, their run defense is allowing Selvin Young and Andre Hall to combine for over 100 yards per sim. In fact, in simulations where Young ran for over 100 yards himself, the Broncos win by a full touchdown on average. The Raiders may be better at the end of the season when JaMarcus Russell has more experience, but in Week 1 he has a simulation passer rating of just 66.
