Week 13 Ballers & Busters for Raiders vs. Chiefs

Week 13 Ballers & Busters for Raiders vs. Chiefs

Buster:  DE Clelin Ferrell

While the rookie pass rusher who was drafted 102 spots after him is proving to be the Raiders’ best defender, Ferrell has been largely a disappointment.

That second score was way too easy. Patrick Mahomes surveyed the field and then saw plenty of room to run out left and trotted in for the score from 13 yards out. That side of the field was so open because Ferrell was there to cut off the outside edge. He bit on the play fake and went inside where he was blocked in. And everyone else was dropped into coverage.

The third offensive touchdown didn’t go around Ferrell’s position, it went through it. He was blocked on a pitch run out left to LeSean McCoy and he shot in for the score.

Buster: RG Gabe Jackson

Good: He had a block on a 15-yard Jacobs run. Bad: He was flagged for holding and almost single-handedly ended the Raiders’ first drive of the third quarter by giving up a tackle for loss on a run and a sack on Derek Carr on the next play.
