Problematic matchup

Quarterback’s scrambling ability vs. Raiders’ defensive scheme

The Raiders couldn’t bring down Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray last week, as he spent inordinate amounts of time scrambling around waiting for openings to develop during his team’s second-half comeback. Ryan Tannehill isn’t nearly as slippery or quick as Murray, but mobility has been a big part of his resurgence in getting a second chance as an NFL starter after beginning his career with the Miami Dolphins. He’s ranked in the top half of quarterback rushing yards in all three seasons. He’s picked up even more yards through the air while on the run out of the pocket. Las Vegas did a decent job of containing Murray in the pocket for most of last week’s game but never appeared to put a spy on him for extra help. That came back to hurt the Raiders in a couple of key situations, and if they’re not careful, it could happen again versus the Titans.
