A loss to the Raiders at home would be a tough pill to swallow.
We are just a flat out better team, and we already beat them in their place.
I wouldn't buy any "we're young" excuses. The Raiders aren't exactly loaded with playoff experience, they have an interim coach, we're better and we're at home. A loss to them doesn't = fire Zac, but it'd be something I'd hold against Zac, for sure.
That said, I think we beat whoever we play in the 1st round.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
