3. Denver Broncos have two 100-yard rushers vs. Raiders in NFL Week 6

How will the resignation of Jon Gruden affect the Las Vegas Raiders?

As the team’s play-caller and obvious leader, it will be interesting to find out.

The Raiders head into Denver this week to take on a Denver Broncos team that has lost two straight games.

Las Vegas is giving up 4.6 yards per carry, ranking them 27th in the NFL. The Denver Broncos boast a talented two-headed beast at running back in veteran Melvin Gordon and rookie Javonte Williams, who as fate would have it are averaging a collective 4.6 yards per carry this season.

Williams and Gordon will go off for 100-yards each vs. the Raiders this week.

2. Steelers defense gets at least 12 hits on Geno Smith

The Pittsburgh Steelers have 25 QB hits as a team so far this season. Getting 12 hits in one game on a quarterback would increase their season total by nearly 50 percent, but it’s possible.

With Russell Wilson on the mend, Geno Smith is going to be under center for the Seahawks as they make the trip out east to face off against TJ Watt and the Steelers.

The Steelers are not going to let Smith get comfortable back there and I think we see a ton of hits on the former second-round pick out of West Virginia.
