Josh Jacobs Bulldozing

In Josh Jacobs’ rookie season, he performed at a high rate for the majority of the season, eclipsing 1,000 yards rushing and 7 touchdowns. His physical style of running worked well with the Raiders tough offensive line and gave Raiders quarterback Derek Carr clean passing opportunities.

The story that many analysts and fans should be following is Jacobs’ ability to step onto the field in his sophomore season and to light up a stingy Panthers defense.

The Raiders are going to try and set the tone early in the game, and if Jacobs can produce big rushing numbers in the first quarter, the Raiders will have an excellent opportunity to win their week one game.
