Get to Derek Carr
The Jets have 12 sacks in their past two games and need to build on that if they want to take down the Raiders, who boast one of the best pass-blocking offensive lines in the league. Oakland ranks sixth in pass protection, according to Football Outsiders, and have allowed the second-fewest sacks in the league (15).
New York, meanwhile, only has 25 sacks on the year despite blitzing 39.3 percent of the time and has struggled in the past to get to the quarterback. If you take away the past two weeks (in which the Jets faced two of the worst offensive lines in the league), New York averaged fewer than two sacks per game.
The Jets will need to find ways to get to Carr, who faltered in two losses earlier this season when sacked at least three times. Expect more blitzes from Jamal Adams as he looks to break the NFL record for sacks by a defensive back.
