No. But I do find it interesting that the Raiders had the most kickoff returns (meaning the opposition has the most scoring plays against them) and they also gave up the least number of kickoff returns to their opponents (meaning they had the least number of scoring plays themselves). Talk about futility!

No, I don't have Huggy Bear Jr. in fantasy. The only Raider I have in my two leagues is Ron Curry, but he is the 4th WR in a league where we only start 2 (we could start 3 if we used one at flex instead of a RB). With Calvin Johnson, Anquan Boldin, and Chad Ocho Cinco ahead of him, I am glad I don't have to rely on a Raider except as an emergency 4th option backup.
