What we learned from a wild Wild Card weekend, and what it means for the Raiders

What a truly wild Wild Card weekend NFL fans just witnessed. All four games were one score games, assuming that eight points fits that description.

Two games went to overtime. Three road teams won.

And two first-ballot Hall of Fame quarterbacks looked like the end is near, if that wasn’t the end altogether.

From a Raiders perspective, you hope Jon Gruden and Mike Mayock were watching and taking notes. A lot happened that signals where football is going in the 2020s.

Perhaps nothing stood out more than the juxtaposition between the old guard, if you will, and the new school type of player at quarterback.
