Raiders Film Review: Linebackers victimized in coverage

The biggest test facing the Raiders defense this weekend was stopping Titans RB Derrick Henry. Tennessee’s offense is built around what Henry does well and as a result of having such a bruising back, they run as much play action as anyone in the league. Ryan Tannehill has done a great job of taking what defenses are giving him and currently is averaging 9.8 yards per pass attempt — best in the NFL.

The defenders with the toughest job against play action are linebackers, and Tannehill picked on each of the Raiders linebackers with success in this game.
