5 Raiders to watch against the Jaguars

It’s the last Raiders game at the Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum and the home team will do all it can to send its loyal fans home happy.

With the Raiders having a terrible go of it the last three weeks — they were outscored 116 to 33 during that time  —  it’s been especially hard on quarterback Derek Carr, who is a lightning rod among the fan base, galvanizing those who support him along with others that would rather Gruden move on from his signal-caller.

In fact, despite the atrocious defense last Sunday, it was the offense that was booed by fans. Unlike the defense, much is expected Carr and Gruden, especially after it seemed they found a groove as the Raiders climbed to a 6-4 record.

It didn’t help matters when Carr threw the ball away on a 4th-and-1 at the goal line during the final moments against the Titans. To many in the crowd, it was an unacceptable surrender. Watch Sunday to see if Carr can win the fans back in his last game at the only home stadium he’s ever known.
