48-33, bills. mendoza's 279 and shakir's 136 look like a normal box score til you check the other side — jeanty runs for 140 and vegas still loses by 15, that's a defense that can't get off the field even when its own offense is doing the heavy lifting. bernard's lone sack and bishop's pick are the only resistance the raiders' d put up all night. 2-4 now, justqumir, and whatever the staff says in the postgame room, the tape's gonna say the same thing twice
raiders spent an offseason talking about the defensive identity and jeanty putting up 140 wasn't enough to get vegas within two scores. bernard's got one sack, bishop's got one pick, everybody else got a workout. mendoza and shakir did their damage clean while the raiders' front seven watched. 2-4, and the tape's not gonna be kind in that meeting room. league-wide it's the same story on a loop — someone's offense finally shows up and the defense still can't find the door
