St. Louis at Oakland – Well it wasn’t the return of the “Greatest Show on Turf,” but rookie QB San Bradford made quite an impressive NFL debut despite falling to division rival Arizona 17-13 in Week 1.

Bradford finished the game tossing 55 balls and completing 32 for 253 yards and a touchdown. His performance however was spoiled by three INTS, but the rookie did display his ability to take command and become the leader that the Rams so desperately need.

Meanwhile, the Raiders defense did a good job containing Titans’ explosive RB Chris Johnson early on, but imploded after Johnson broke out for a 70-yard run in the second. They did however get a decent pass rush on QB Vince Young, sacking him twice for considerable losses.

Raiders’ QB Jason Campbell had a rough debut as the Oakland O-line offered him up for a total of four sacks. Campbell, despite running for his life, still completed 22 of 37 for 180 yards, one touchdown, and one interception.

One of the highlights for the Raiders was the offenses’ ability to execute the running game. RB Darren McFadden had 95 yards on the ground, and 55 yards receiving.

Now he will now go head-to-head with the Rams’ Stephen Jackson, who racked up just 81 yards against the Cardinals.

The Raiders will need to control the running game, both offensively and defensively. If they can force the Rams to throw early, it could result in key turnovers considering Bradford’s three INTS in last week’s contest.

The odds makers have the Rams as a -3.5 point favorite with and over/under of 37.5.
