Raiders hit the road to face the Tennessee Titans

The Silver and Black face a Tennessee team working on a short week, following a Monday Night Football loss to the Bills.

The Titans’ explosive running back Derrick Henry has been fairly contained in the first two weeks of the season, totaling just 107 rushing yards against the Giants and Bills. The Raiders defense will look to continue to build upon a run defense that held the Chargers and Cardinals to an average 109.5 ypg as they try to keep Henry in check.

In all three phases for the Raiders, attention will be on playing a complete game. McDaniels noted he hopes to emphasize an increased effort from both sides of the ball in maintaining aggressiveness to the final whistle.

“At the end of the day, it comes down to our overall execution – whether we’re running it, throwing it, drop back play action, tossing the ball, draw,” the head coach said. “Whatever the play is, if we execute it well enough, we’re going to give ourselves an opportunity.”
