Most-Telling Performances Week 13

Raiders MVP: Brock Bowers

When Bowers is playing, he provides a safety net for any QB. He had the Raiders only 2 TDs. Without a surging offense, it has forced a dip in production in addition to his injuries, yet he is still a phenomenal player and will grow exponentially in future years.

Raiders Offensive MVP: Brock Bowers

Not a surprise that Bowers collects this award as well because the offense flows and executes much better when he is healthy. The second of his touchdowns was outstanding. He has so many wrinkles to his game that give him flexibility and capability.

Raiders Defensive MVP: Maxx Crosby

Crosby ended up with 2 sacks and really had a decent game. There continues to be a deficiency in the defense giving up too many big plays and yards. Crosby is going to need help surrounding him so that he can rush the passer efficiently. Playing in a lousy front seven is the main reason he has struggled. He is just too talented to place undue blame on him.

Raiders Breakout Player: S Jeremy Chinn

He led the team with 17 tackles total and got after the opposition with a tenacity and urgency. He has not always been around the ball enough this year but perhaps he is finding greater confidence to find the quarterback and receivers. Playing downhill and being a disruptor is something that suits him well.

Raiders Player in Regression: LB ELandon Roberts

Roberts had no solo tackles in this game and has no sacks on the year. He is known to be a good tackler up against the running backs but he has not played enough plays like Devin White to see him making tackles regularly.
