NFL Fact Or Fiction: Are Raiders A Deep Playoff Run Team?

Live From Quarantine editor breaks down Week 3 NFL takes, ruling that the 3-0 Raiders are unlikely to make a deep postseason run despite their soft schedule and early success.

The editor rules that the claim the Raiders are a deep playoff threat is fiction. While Las Vegas has a 3-0 record and red-hot quarterback Kirk Cousins, the team lacks a proven receiving corps outside of Tre Tucker.

The Raiders' easy schedule, which included the Dolphins, Chargers, and Saints, has inflated their record. With Brock Bowers being the only true receiving threat and the defense facing tougher competition in the coming weeks against the Chiefs and Bills, a deep postseason run remains unlikely. cricket-ipl.in
