Literally every week, the Raiders next opponent has a player coming off being the named the Player of the Week. This week, the Raiders face the Bills, coming off a Monday night win over the Rams. And the hero of that game, was, of course, just named AFC Special Teams Player of the Week.

Greg Rousseau got up to block what would have been the Rams' game-winning field goal in overtime. Instead, the Bills drove down and to kick the game-winner.
Last week the Raiders face reigning AFC Offensive Player of the Week, Drake Maye. The week prior vs the Chiefs they faces reigning Offensive Player of the Month and NFL leading rusher RB Kenneth Walker. And the week prior to that,
they faced Tyler Shough who came in as the NFL's league-leading passer.
All of those players ended up having solid games against the Raiders. Walker and Maye put up elite performances. Who knows that Rousseau will do, but the starting edge rusher put up two sacks in each of his first three games this season, and the Bills have won each of those games, so clearly being a game wrecker is kind of his thing.
