The Las Vegas Raiders offense gave Raider Nation plenty to be excited about against Arizona. Now it's time for the defense to answer.

Against the Houston Texans, the score isn't the biggest thing I'm watching. I want to see improvement, discipline, pressure, better coverage and young Raiders defenders taking another step forward.

Eric the Clueless Sportz Dad and Raider Greg break down what Rob Leonard's defense needs to prove, the young secondary, Kieran Crawford, the defensive line and which players could be fighting their way onto the Raiders' 53-man roster.

We also get into Fernando Mendoza, Kirk Cousins, Ashton Jeanty, Brock Bowers, Jack Bech, Chase Roberts, Trey Zuhn and some very interesting decisions Klint Kubiak could have coming.

The offense has shown us something.

Now the defense has to *PROVE IT.*
