I failed miserably last week, unfortunately not only with the Raiders, but I believe that one swallow does not a spring make. Changing coaches did have a positive effect on the Oakland boys, who managed to sneak into the end zone four times against the Chargers, but we need to put that into context. Knowing that Rivers can load them up like a sack (a justified fear as the Chargers did score 31), the Raiders were forced to play risky, which they don't do well usually. As their attempt to outplay the opponent last Sunday did not work, I believe they'll return to the conservative approach shared with their opponent in this match. The Cardinals don't have half the offensive power of the Chargers so the home team will have a chance to play it a bit more patiently, especially if their defense manages to hold out against the first few possessions of the Arizona team. If we disregard the last week's match, the Raiders scored 14 points on three occasions and 9 once, while the Cardinals only allowed Payton Manning over 20.
