Raiders Film Review: Pass defense takes advantage of rookie QB in win against Bengals

The Raiders pass defense picked up right where it left off against the Chargers with a dominant effort against the Bengals. Rookie QB Ryan Finley was held to a 42 percent completion percentage, sacked five times, and had a fumble and interception on the day. Paul Guenther’s unit seems to have disregarded run defense in favor of rushing the passer in recent weeks and it has translated into splash plays and turnovers for defense.

Disrupting the catch

From early on in the game, Finley was under duress. There were times when he was able to break the pocket and make a play with his legs.
