Halftime thoughts

Halftime:
Detroit - 0
Oakland - 21



The good:
  • The passing game is on fire. Brooks looks good, Moss has 2 touchdowns and several receivers and tight ends had receptions.
  • Third down conversions, the Raiders were 4 for 5 on third down conversions.
  • The defense has played well with 2 turnovers, an interception and fumble.
  • Few penalties, 1 boneheaded penalty on offense and a 15 yard facemask on defense have been it for the Raiders and neither really hurt.
  • Aaron Brooks' mobility. He has used his mobility to escape more than a few sacks and create big plays.
  • Pressure: 2 defensive sacks 1 by Derrick Burgess and 1 by Terdel Sands but lots of pressure on other plays.


The bad:
  • its preseason.
  • They're playing Detroit which is kind of like not playing a real team.
