He lost to the Chiefs and he really didn't look so bad in that game considering the situation. Bad team overall, playing from behind, and he was willing to sling it.

I agree with this and again reiterate that McGloin will benefit from the much better team that is assembled around him.
That said, playing your first game of the season with that group against a Broncos team that was just humiliated on national TV in their own house could prove too tall an order. If there was a match-up that benefits the Broncos and hurts the Raiders it is this one, but I still believe the drop-off from Carr to McGloin won't be as great as some might suspect.
