Raiders finally name a starting QB, plus CBS Sports unveils new ‘Pushing the Pile’ NFL podcast

Welcome to the Monday edition of the Pick Six newsletter! 

I have to say, it’s a minor miracle that I even found time to write the newsletter today due to the fact that I have gotten absolutely nothing done over the past 36 hours because all I’ve been doing is watching Brandon Aubrey’s 66-yard field on repeat. There was a BEHIND-THE-BACK pass in the NFL over the weekend, and I don’t even care because someone hit a 66-yard field goal. 

If you didn’t see either of those plays or if you just have no idea what I’m talking about, don’t worry, we’ll be covering them both today. Plus, we’ll also be taking a look at the who won the Raiders starting QB job. Oh, and we have the DEBUT episode of our newest podcast here at CBS Sports, so let’s get to the rundown.

One of the topics on today’s inaugural episode was a conversation about which teams have improved the most heading into the upcoming season. Let’s take a look at one improved team from each guy’s list: 

Kyle Long: Jets. Long is very high on the Jets for one big reason. “Here’s the reason why: Aaron Rodgers. It’s as simple as that. And then you go and add the offensive linemen that they did with Tyron Smith and…
