This game against the Denver Broncos for the Las Vegas Raiders is going to be extremely tough. That's not to say the Raiders can't win, as they have the past eight times in a row against this team, but, it won't be as easy as it has been in the past.
The Raiders have some things going against them in this game that will make it tough, and having 18 players on the injury report all week is one of those things. They will be without five starters and seven total players.
We thought Maxx Crosby could be added to that list as he was questionable and missed last week against the Cleveland Browns, but, it's looking like the Raiders are getting great news.
When the inactive list came out, a lot of fans were expecting to see Crosby's name there. As he warmed up on the field prior to the list coming out, it looked like the Condor would be fine, as he wasn't limping or looked to be in any pain.
Sure enough, he wasn't on the inactive list. That could have put the Broncos ahead easily, as Crosby is one of the best players in the league. And, being down 2-3 on the year could have changed the trajectory of the season. Now, they could still start their season 2-3 through five weeks, but having Crosby certainly helps.
Michael Mayer, Zamir White, Decamerion Richardson, Davante Adams, Thayer Munford, Divine Deablo, and Tyreik Mcallister are all inactive.
