Game day is upon us; and I couldn’t be happier.
For what has felt like a painfully slow and long seven months, football is back, and the Oakland Raiders are ready to hit someone other than themselves.
Tonight, the Silver and Black will face off against the Arizona Cardinals in Glendale, Ariz., at University of Phoenix Stadium, in what should be an interesting game in terms of watching the rookies make their NFL debuts.
While a majority of the usual starters won’t see the field much, or at all, evaluating the remaining players on the roster during the preseason is a crucial part of preparing for the regular season, and also an important time for players to show what they’re made of.
