PLUS, New York could be without its most productive pass rusher, opening the door for Kirk Cousins, Ashton Jeanty, and the Raiders' offense to have a BIG day!We're also diving into the latest Raiders injury updates, putting the team's four-game losing streak into perspective, and explaining why there's still plenty of reason to be optimistic about the direction of this franchise. And stick around for another installment of RAIDERS ROUNDERS with Matt Perrault from Pushing the Odds!🏴‍☠️ ON TODAY'S SHOW:🚨 RAIDERS NEWS & INJURY UPDATES: The latest on Jack Bech, Jackson Powers-Johnson, and Trey Zuhn as the Raiders prepare to face the New York Jets.😤 GENO SMITH'S REVENGE GAME... OR RAIDER NATION'S?! After a tumultuous season in Las Vegas, Geno Smith is likely looking for revenge against the Raiders, but after everything that happened last year, who really has more reason to want revenge?👀 IS GENO SMITH STILL TURNOVER PRONE?! Geno has dramatically improved his touchdown-to-interception ratio, going from 7-10 at this point last season to 10-2 this year. But he's also been far more conservative, with the NFL's highest short-throw percentage at 76%. Why the Raiders could have opportunities to force him into mistakes if they make him hold onto the football and push the ball downfield.💥 HOW THE RAIDERS CAN GET AFTER GENO: The Jets have allowed 103 quarterback pressures and Geno has already taken 21 sacks. Why Maxx Crosby and the Raiders' pass rush could be the key to spoiling his return, and how keeping New York's talented receivers in front of them could force Geno into uncomfortable situations.🔥 DAVID BAILEY'S INJURY COULD CHANGE EVERYTHING! The Jets' rookie pass rusher has been a force with 5.5 sacks, 34 quarterback pressures and three forced fumbles. But he's officially doubtful with a groin injury. Why his potential absence could be a massive advantage for Kirk Cousins and the Raiders' passing attack.🏈 CAN ASHTON JEANTY FINALLY GET GOING?! The Jets are allowing 127.7 rushing yards per game, and their interior defensive line has been vulnerable. Could this finally be the matchup where Klint Kubiak gets the Raiders' rushing attack back on track?📈 RAIDER NATION NEEDS SOME PERSPECTIVE! Four straight losses have fans frustrated, but the Raiders are averaging 11.8 more points per game than last season despite major issues along the offensive line, injuries at receiver and a struggling rushing attack. Why there's reason to believe the Raiders are heading in the right direction under Klint Kubiak, and what still needs to be addressed as they continue building around Fernando Mendoza.🎲 RAIDERS ROUNDERS WITH MATT PERRAULT!

Will identifies where the Raiders could attack New York's defensive front and why Harrison Phillips could be a player to target.👀 THE JETS' BIGGEST DEFENSIVE WEAKNESSES: From inconsistent pass rush production to questions about Aaron Glenn's defensive approach, where can Klint Kubiak and Kirk Cousins find opportunities? And could the Jets lean more heavily on man coverage against the Raiders this week?😤 GENO SMITH'S REVENGE GAME! The former Raiders quarterback is having a much better statistical season in New York.

After four straight losses, Raider Nation is calling for the No. 1 overall pick to replace Kirk Cousins. But is quarterback REALLY the problem?!
