During the season, Cleveland Browns fans vote in SB Nation Reacts to express their confidence level in the team or their thoughts on other topics. The Browns are coming off a win over the Las Vegas Raiders, and just as I expected, fan confidence in the direction of the team skyrocketed. Week-to-week, fan confidence increased […]
Chargers football is back. The bye has come and gone and the hope is that the team was able to flush everything negative over their extended break. It’s tough to feel uber-confident this week based on how the Jaguars game went, but if they can’t take care of business this week, then there’s no point […]
In February 2025, following the hiring of now Raiders head coach the Las Vegas Raiders hired Brennan Carroll as their offensive line coach. It was Carroll’s first opportunity to coach an NFL offensive line as his own unit after having previously served as the Seahawks assistant offensive line coach from 2015-2020 where he also spent […]
It appears some Las Vegas Raiders fans want to see Aidan O’Connell climb the quarterback depth chart for the rest of this season. Sunday, in his first game being on the 53-man roster this season, the third-year quarterback was the No. 3, emergency quarterback Sunday against the Cleveland Browns. Thus, the only way he could […]
The Las Vegas Raiders play at the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday. Kickoff is at 1:25 p.m. PT. Here are five keys to victory for the Raiders: Harass Justin Herbert: Maxx Crosby had a great game against Cleveland (OK, he was overshadowed by Myles Garrett)., but he did ball out. Crosby had six pressures and […]
The Chargers are back from their much-needed bye week and a matchup with the hapless Raiders is just what the team needs. This SHOULD be a win, but you just never know when the Bolts are coming off a game where they looked no better than Las Vegas in a lopsided loss to the Jaguars […]

It’s Thanksgiving Day and in the NFL that means John Madden. The Raiders’ legendary Hall of Fame coach loved Thanksgiving Day and everything it had to offer for NFL fans. Once gain, the league is horning Madden on Thanksgiving. It has become a tradition to honor the former coach, broadcaster and video game inspiration who […]
Throughout the 2025 NFL season, SB Nation’s Doug Farrar writes about the game’s Secret Superstars — those players whose performances might slip under the radar for whatever reasons. In this installment, we focus on Indianapolis Colts linebacker Germaine Pratt, whose reunion with Lou Anarumo was just what the doctor ordered. Well, you have to give the Las Vegas […]
After the Las Vegas Raiders’ 53-man roster was pretty healthy the past few weeks, there is some injury questions after the first practice day of the week as they prepare to play at the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday. Both tight end Michael Mayer and starting guard Jordan Meredith both didn’t practice Wednesday because of […]
The Las Vegas Raiders have six games left to evaluate who should be on the roster moving forward, including the Week 13 rivalry matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers this Sunday. That also means we’re in crunch time for the Silver and Black Pride Pick’em competition, as December is right around the corner. Odds below […]
With just two victories and nine defeats of all varieties — close heartbreak to lopsided beatdowns — the 2025 campaign has gone terribly awry for the Las Vegas Raiders. It’s a season where head coach Pete Carroll dismiss two of his coordinators. First was special teams boss Tom McMahon after the team’s Week 10 10-7 […]
Three days after cameras caught Las Vegas Raiders starting quarterback Geno Smith directing an obscene gesture in direction of booing fans after a disappointing home loss to the Cleveland Browns, he met with media members for the first time since news of the incident broke. A contrite and somber Smith issues a an apology to […]
The Las Vegas Raiders are sitting 2-8 when I write this and could either be 2-9 or 3-8 after their matchup vs the Cleveland Browns. Raiders QB Geno Smith has not been as expected throwing 13 interceptions to 12 touchdowns while also ranking bottom 8 in big time throw rate and and having the 3rd […]
While there isn’t much room for optimism when it comes to the 2-9 Las Vegas Raiders, especially after the Week 12 24-10 loss to the Cleveland Browns, cornerback Eric Stokes has been one of the few bright spots on the Raiders’ roster. According to Pro Football Focus, Stokes has surrendered just 203 yards in coverage […]

The Las Vegas Raiders’ franchise has had a long, often contentious relationship with NFL officials. We all know the history from Walt Coleman and the Tuck Rule to Gene Steratore and the index card to several other instances that wronged the Silver and Clack.

For now, at least, Aidan O”Connell will not be in the Las Vegas Raiders’ quarterback mix.

Thus, the only way he could have played in the game had their […]
There are a lot of eyes on what is happening with the Las Vegas Raiders’ and their coaching staff right now and that includes former players.

There is a clear bottom tier when it comes to NFL teams. The Tennessee Titans, New York Jets, Las Vegas Raiders, and New Orleans Saints make up that group. Before the last two weeks, it was clear to me that the Titans were pretty easily the worst team in the league. With what Cam Ward […]
Kyler Murray? I don’t like the idea and neither do many Las Vegas Raiders fans. There have been reports that the Arizona Cardinals may part ways with the quarterback and the Raiders could be a fit as he has already been connected to the Raiders next year. We recently asked our community members how they […]

The Cleveland Browns are looking forward in a positive way at the start of the Thanksgiving week. Knocking off the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 12 (see our founder’s vlog of his experience out there here) and having some relative excitement about QB Shedeur Sanders is a nice change of pace for fans. Whether or […]
The Cleveland Browns’ offense didn’t sustain drives, were 3-of-12 (25%) on third down, and had the ball for 23:34 to the Raiders’ 36:26. But yet, we find ourselves encouraged by Shedeur Sanders’ first career start because he showed the ability to create the big play. Below, we analyze the snap counts and stats on offense […]
