Raiders line looked really good, Gruden also did a good job of making sure to get the ball out quick to negate Miller/Chubb

Yeah, I'll give you the Mack thing -- that hit in college really upped his profile way too much but you said dude was run out the mill. He increased his sack total every year, was 11th in TFL, top 20 in sack yards.
He'll never be what Watt or Mack are but it's almost a shame he'll always be held against them because he's tier 2/3 below them. Plus now he's back in a 4-3.
The Titans should give the rights to the Oilers logo and colors back to Houston.

In consecutive seasons, the team with the number 1 overall pick the previous year, finished their 1st game of the season with a tie. Cleveland tied with Pittsburgh last season and Arizona tied with Detroit this season.

Given how spiteful and petty he was, Bud Adams probably has it written in his will that the Titans NEVER relinquish the rights of the Oilers name/logo/uniform/history to Houston.

That’s 2.5 sack average over the next four games with the Jags Falcons Chargers and Chiefs on deck ...
Aaron Donald had 20.5 last year and you’re telling me Watt’s gonna get half that in a quarter of a season?

HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- The dream of the Houston Texans wearing the Oilers' throwback jerseys will stay just that: a dream.
Earlier this week, Texans wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins posted a photo of himself in a Houston Oilers jersey on Instagram, asking followers "Who would like to see this?"
Naturally, he received an overwhelming response.
Teammate J.J. Watt has also mused about the Tennessee Titans, who used to be the Houston Oilers, giving up the rights to the iconic "Luv Ya Blue" uniforms of yesteryear, talking about it in a "Happy Birthday" tweet from the NFL last week.
"Thank you NFL. I'll check the mail for my present. (Gift idea hint: Get the Titans to give us the rights to the Houston Oilers throwback uniforms)," Watt tweeted.
However, any hopes of that happening have just been officially shut down.
Titans owner Amy Adams Strunk was asked by writer Paul Kuharsky whether the Oilers' garb will ever return to H-town. Her answer was clear.
"That's very interesting except the Oilers don't have anything to do with the Texans," Strunk explained.
"So that's a hard no?" Kuharsky asked.
"That's a hard no," Strunk replied.
I never thought the man was weak, but DeAndre Hopkins is stronger than I thought he was.
Watson might not last the year. But as long as he's behind center, the Texans should be the best team in the division.

Raiders not terrible
Josh Allen is Tim Tebow with an extremely strong arm
Offensive Line play as a whole was awful
Baker isn’t stepping into throws like last year wonder if he’s hurt

Fukk your corny debates
I would agree, but being called the Oilers and having an oil derrick on your helmet is a bad look in the era of climate change. No way the NFL is gonna allow them go back to having a team that’s an advertisement for the fossil fuel industry. PR issue.The Titans should give the rights to the Oilers logo and colors back to Houston.
Like the Redskins?

Yeah. That’s why they won’t go back to something that would be a PR problem. The Redskins owner won’t change the name, but best believe there won’t be any return back to a PR problem name for any NFL team.
