The Antonio Pierce era is off to a great start. After the Raiders’ defense stopped the Giants for a three-and-out, they drove 67 yards in six plays for an opening drive touchdown.
The biggest plays on the drive both went to Jakobi Meyers. The first was a 24-yard catch and run on a quick slant. That put the Raiders at the 25-yard-line. From there, Josh Jacobs ran out right for eight yards and then Meyers took the ball on the sweep for a 17-yard touchdown run.
A 25-yard reception and then this 17-yard rushing TD.
What an opening drive for Jakobi Meyers!

Last week the Raiders fired head coach Josh McDaniels along with offensive. coordinator Mick Lombardi and benched QB Jimmy Garoppolo. The supposed offensive guru head coach presided over the second worst offense in the league.
Replacing McDaniels and Lombardi are linebackers coach Antonio Pierce and QB coach Bo Hardegree. Replacing Positive results on the first drive. Now we see if it can continue for the rest of this game and beyond.
