What They Are Saying: Twitter Reacts To Raiders On Sunday Night Football

Aug 31, 2015 at 06:36 AM

This past weekend, the Raiders took on the Arizona Cardinals at O.co Coliseum for their third game of the preseason. The starters played extensively – well into the second half – and with all eyes on the game due to NBC's Sunday Night Football coverage, there was lots of chatter surrounding the team and its performance.

Take a look at what a number of prominent figures are saying about the Raiders:

Amari Cooper about to have a monster year. He moves a thousand miles an hour every play.

#Raiders DE Khalil Mack earned an 11.3 grade last night from @PFF. Highest of any defender this preseason by far.
— Jimmy Durkin (@Jimmy_Durkin) August 31, 2015

Got a lot of crap for putting Khalil Mack at No. 35 in my top 100 this year. That might be low.
— Pete Prisco (@PriscoCBS) August 31, 2015

"If I needed a yard, I would run anywhere on planet earth, other than at Khalil Mack." #AZvsOAK #SNF

The @Raiders said @52Mack_ would go for the QB nearly every play,
& he still can't be stopped http://t.co/fPXLyRJR3z pic.twitter.com/9R1AzC8iNS

Every time I watch @AmariCooper9, I'm tempted to move him up even further in my fantasy WR rankings. Dude is awesome.

.@AmariCooper9 just lined up against one of the best CBs in the NFL. And put him on skates. #ACDC #AZvsOAK http://t.co/vTFJZ049aA

Raiders are going to beat some teams they're "not supposed to." Mack will truck QBs. ACooper looking super.

Incredible that @CwoodsonF still doing it at a high level in year 18. Class, Leadership, and unmatched instincts and talent. #goat

Charles Woodson is the man. 38 years old & still rolling 💪🏿!

Better days ahead. Correct this tape and make sure we don't make the same mistake twice. #RaiderNation
