Oakland Raiders: 3 Bold predictions vs. Jaguars, Week 15
By Steve Rivera
1. Raiders win by 30
Week 15 is about as near a lock as you can get. With a bad Jacksonville Jaguars as the sacrificial lamb, the Oakland Raiders rebound from a three-game losing streak in dramatic fashion.
Also, don’t underestimate the gravity of the moment. It’s a game that isn’t under the “Game of the Week” heading on either network. It’s not in primetime either. In a perfect world or one where the schedule-makers get it right, the last game in Oakland would have been against an AFC West opponent.
That said, a 4-12 Jaguars team will do just fine. Oakland needs a win, and in Week 15, the scheduled opponent is how the Raiders get back into a winning groove for their last two games of the 2019 season.
Expect some fireworks, some big defensive plays, Carr to have over 350 yards passing, two trick plays, and a football game that is well in hand before the fourth quarter gets underway. The Raiders will play perhaps their best game of the season as the fans cheer a team headed for Las Vegas next season.
Gruden gets them going early, and the Silver and Black play game fans in the East Bay won’t soon forget. Oakland Raiders 42, Jacksonville Jaguars 10.
