"Facing the Kansas City Chiefs on the road last week, they were outclassed on both sides of the ball and lost 31-0. Offensively, Las Vegas failed to touch the red zone and had just 95 total yards. And Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes was in MVP form, toying with the Raiders' defense so much that he used his acting skills to fool them on a creative fourth-and-1 playcall."
"At the bye week, the Raiders are 2-5 and sitting at the bottom of the AFC West. They've lost five of their past six games and have a 3% chance of making the postseason, according to ESPN Analytics. Carroll has started 2-5 or worse previously just twice (2011 and 2021) in his head coaching career, per ESPN Research. In those seasons, he finished 7-9 and 7-10, respectively, as the coach for the Seattle Seahawks."
Las Vegas began the season hoping for progress under coach Pete Carroll and additions such as quarterback Geno Smith and running back Ashton Jeanty. The Raiders are 2-5 at the bye, have lost five of their last six games, and sit at the bottom of the AFC West. The team was shut out 31-0 at Kansas City, managing just 95 total yards and no red-zone trips while Patrick Mahomes dominated. ESPN Analytics gives the Raiders a 3% chance of reaching the postseason. Carroll said he expected the team to be further along and cleaner.
