DE Brian Burns vs. OT Kolton Miller
The Panthers finished second in the NFL in sacks last season. While they lost a lot of firepower up front in free agency, they still have Burns, who is now their top pass-rusher. Kolton Miller is the Raiders’ starting left tackle and he is nowhere near as stout in pass protection as Donald Penn was in his prime. Meanwhile, Burns put on 10 pounds of muscle over the summer. Now he has to show he can translate his speed into power. Burns should be able to dominate this matchup and get consistent pressure on Derek Carr.
