The 2012 Oakland Raiders came in 23rd in PFT’s Preseason Power Rankings. But in our writeup of the team, we acknowledge potential for new coach Dennis Allen’s team to outplay that projection. The Raiders have explosive skill-position players on offense, and a promising front four on the other side of the ball.

Perhaps we are overly optimistic, or maybe even too skeptical about the 2012 Raiders. Or maybe we got it just right. We want to know your thoughts, so take part in our poll.

Please.
