For the opening salvo of Week 14, the will play host to the on Thursday Night Football.L.A. is ravaged by injuries and has lost six consecutive games since its bye week. Vegas has won three in a row since dropping to 2-7, though it did take overtime to win the first two of those games against the and . The Raiders are Josh Richardson Jersey surely looking to have an easier go of things Thursday night, but their only double-digit win so far this season was against the . Can we expect them to blow out the Rams, or will this be another close one?Even if they don't romp, will the Raiders keep their streak rolling, or will the Rams pull off a surprise upset? We'll find out soon enough. Before we break down the matchup, here's a look at how you can watch the game.Date:Thursday, Dec. 8 |Time:8:20 p.m. ETLocation:SoFi Stadium (Los Angeles)Stream: Follow: Odds: Raiders -6.5, O/U 43.5 LV WR #17 TAR135REC79REC YDs1176REC TD12FL0 The significant majority of the Raiders offense now runs through just two players: and .Since his one-catch, three-yard performance against the back in Week 8 (a game where the Raiders were not-coincidentally shut out), Adams has put up receiving lines of 10-146-2, 9-126-1, 7-141-2, 7-74-0 and 8-177-2. That's 41 catches for 664 yards and seven scores in the past five contests, a full-season pace of 139-2258-24. Yes, really. He has a target share in exce s of 36% during that span, and is just 61 of 110 (55.5%) for 695 yards (6.3 per attempt), four touchdowns, and three interceptions when targeting non-Adams receivers in those games. With and still sidelined due to injury, and are the only secondary pa sing-game options of note, but Moreau hasn't exceeded 44 receiving yards in a game this season and Hollins has topped 66 yards just Goran Dragic Jersey once.Adams should see a lot of on Thursday night, but this has not been Ramsey's best season. He's tied for the lead in touchdowns allowed in coverage, and after yielding pa ser ratings of 76.6, 66.4, 73.8, 96.4, 76.3 and 84.5 on throws in his direction prior to this year, according to Pro Football Focus, he's allowed that figure to shoot up to 126.1 this season. Los Angeles' remaining defensive backs are eminently burnable, and Carr should be expected to look Adams' way whenever he gets one of them matched up in coverage. LV RB #28 Att242Yds1303TD10FL1 Jacobs, meanwhile, is in the midst of the best stretch of his career. Over the Raiders' past three games (all wins), Jacobs has recorded 27 touches for 160 yards, 39 touches for 303 yards and two touchdowns, and 28 touches for 150 yards and a touchdown. He's averaging a career-best (and league-high) 108.6 rushing yards per Jae Crowder Jersey game, while leading the NFL in both touches and yards from scrimmage. He's making more of a contribution in the pa sing game than ever, he's breaking tackles, and he's creating big gains. He's doing all the things that running backs can do to provide value independent of the quality of blocking they're afforded.The Rams check in a surprising fifth in rush defense DVOA at Football Outsiders, but they'll once again be without for this game, which obviously changes things quite a bit. and are also on injured reserve, taking two more of L.A.'s top defenders off the field. Plus, , and did not practice at all in the lead-up to Maurice Harkless Jersey this game. Given the state of this unit at the moment, it's tough to see them stopping a Raiders offense that is playing its best football of the year right now.

The Rams are still without , , , and , and recently cut ties with Darrell Henderson Jr. We don't yet know if will be active, and supposedly might be able to play in this game. (If neither of those things happens, it will be under center.) Whether or not that matters is up for debate, but it is almost factually impo sible to analyze this offense because there is zero indication of what it will look like. The Las Vegas defense is no great shakes, but it is very difficult to envision Los Angeles having much in the way of offensive succe s, because there is just not enough talent on hand.
