On the Oakland Raiders podcast with Joe:

#1 How much of a factor was it for the decision to trade wide receiver Amari Cooper? He had 36 yard totals in four different games and his production was down before being traded to Dallas on Monday.

#2 The trade came at a peculiar time during practice Monday. Cooper got pulled out of practice Monday and was notified that he had been traded.

#3 Monday general manager Reggie McKenzie said no one is untouchable and then head coach John Gruden said, “we’re not trading anyone else.”

#4 Quarterback Derek Carr has gone through a challenging week and a half after getting sacked nearly a dozen times in London by the Seahawks in their last game.

#5 The Raiders are over the jet lag and are set to host the Indianapolis Colts this Sunday. How do you see this matchup?
