So this isn’t a problem that will go away on its own. Wilson has long been one of the league’s more elusive quarterbacks, and he moved around well to avoid pressure, but the Raiders will face many mobile QBs, including the Bills’ Josh Allen.
Even with Crosby’s 12 1/2 sacks last season, Las Vegas was 30th in the NFL with 27 quarterback takedowns. The Raiders got to Russell Wilson twice, once by usual suspect Maxx Crosby and the other time by Jerry Tillery. Questions about the pass rush didn’t go away. It also will give opposing defenses plenty to consider when they think of double-teaming Davante Adams. Meyers left in the fourth quarter after a hit to his head, but this performance is something for the two to build upon. Garoppolo established a rapport with Jakobi Meyers, who caught both TD passes and finished with nine receptions for 81 yards. He completed 20 of 26 passes for 200 yards and two touchdowns while not getting sacked. In his first Las Vegas start, Garoppolo efficiently and effectively ran the offense, getting the ball out quickly to negate any hint of a Broncos pass rush. “I thought there was a lot of mental toughness and resiliency required from our team in that situation on the road, and I thought our maturity showed up,” McDaniels said. Two came on third downs, including quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo scrambling to convert a third-and-7 to secure the victory. Las Vegas ran off the final 5:08, picking up three first downs on that last drive. Business & Finance Click to expand menu.
