This recreation positive appears to be like misplaced in prime time, doesn’t it? The Dallas Cowboys are 3-5-1, the Las Vegas Raiders are 2-7, and but that is taking on nationwide tv time? Sadly, this couldn’t get flexed out because it’s not inside the Monday Night time Soccer flex window, however perhaps it’ll be entertaining as a result of the Cowboys and Raiders don’t precisely have nice defenses.
We’ve been watching the Raiders pretty carefully given Pete Carroll and Geno Smith are the top coach/quarterback combo in Vegas, and to date it’s been an abject failure with a sprinkling of catastrophe. That duo went 9-8 twice in Seattle however 9-8 just isn’t occurring for the Raiders this 12 months.
On the opposite aspect of the sector, the Cowboys are coached by former Seattle Seahawks offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer. So it’s like a giant ol’ Seahawks reunion contemplating what number of ex-Seahawks are on Pete’s teaching employees and roster, to not point out Schotty on the Cowboys.
Sadly, the backdrop to this recreation is the truth that that is the primary one for Dallas because the tragic demise of Marshawn Kneeland. The rest of this season might be performed in reminiscence of Kneeland, and the Raiders have made this stylish gesture.
