The
Oakland Raiders have struggled with their pass rush in the first two games, totaling only two sacks during the 0-2 start. Head coach
Jon Gruden ironically blamed the quality of personnel on the roster.
"It's hard to find a great pass-rusher," Gruden said Wednesday, per
Vic Tafur of The Athletic.
The Raiders obviously already had a great one in Khalil Mack, but he was traded to the
Chicago Bears before the start of the regular season after the two sides failed to agree on a new contract.
Mack had already proved himself in the past while earning three Pro Bowl selections and the 2016 Defensive Player of the Year award, but he has been as good as advertised since joining the Bears.
In two games, the linebacker has two sacks, two forced fumbles and an interception returned for a touchdown.
