I checked out the Raiders defense this year. 2 key stats popped out at me. I highlighted them below



As you can see, they do not let up any big plays on the ground, or through the air. It's difficult to move the ball on them. 

And this is with playing Mahomes and Herbert twice a year

What hurts their defensive stats all together though, and especially their scoring defense, is the fact that they're dead last in interceptions. Only 6 on the year. Very odd.

Im not afraid to say that, to me, this is a honorary top 10 defense the Bengals are going up against, and Gus Bradley is one of the best DC's in the league

They are 26 in points allowed. I think they are also upside down in point differential. So that’s in our favor.
