Oakland Raiders: Josh Jacobs, not Antonio Brown, is the star that the team needed

Watching Josh Jacobs bend and bounce around defenders is an absolute delight. And after everything that’s gone wrong for the Oakland Raiders, I can’t thank him enough.

As Josh Jacobs churned his way to a game-clinching first down against the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday, I forgot, however briefly, about Antonio Brown, Khalil Mack, and the Raiders’ coming move away from Oakland.

Josh Jacobs is making everything seem alright, even easy.

While Hard Knocks’ camera crews chased around Brown and his frostbitten feet, Jacobs slipped by unnoticed.
