Skelton comes in and immediately it looks like he's protection. just weird.

Raiders announcer just said that and chuckled. I think he wanted to say they're doing it on purpose so Skelton wins the job.

Skelton looks good so far though making quick decisions but he's had far more time to throw.

At this point I think Skelton has to be the starter.

Skelton looks so badass. His flat passes, which I would consider his weakness, those short ones, he delivered with touch. Skeletor!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Want a long drive for Skelton tonight, but that may not be possible the way our D is bringing it.

It's bizarre but I agree. Looks like the Raiders mainly had their starters in their mostly on D but night and day with Skelton in.

Start Skelton

Wolfley is channeling Jesse "The Body" Ventura tonight big time.

Good drive by Skelton right there.

I bet Snyder loves having Batiste starting. Makes him look so much better because Batiste's man is always in the backfield so if Snyder misses a block nobody notices
