The Las Vegas Raiders haven’t been doing much winning on the field lately. Be that as it may, team owner Mark Davis is excited to have gotten a “win” recently. Question is, is Raider Nation excited?
The biggest news this week regarding Davis has been the developments surrounding Super Bowl LVIII. Las Vegas will indeed be hosting it in 2024. No doubt, Mr. Davis must be jubilant right now, but what do fans say? Well, if you take a look at social media, many aren’t exactly sharing in Davis’s excitement.
Mark Davis: “When you’re not winning on the field, it’s nice to win off it.”

The relationship between Raiders fans and Davis is a complicated one. The relocation from Oakland to Las Vegas, combined with zero appearances in the playoffs since 2016, has left it tenuous at best. Let’s face it; Davis came out on the winning end with a beautiful, state-of-the-art arena located within arguably one of the biggest tourist attractions in the world:Â Sin City. Unfortunately, the lack of winning combined with all the turmoil that has engulfed the organization seems to be overshadowing an otherwise great thing for Las Vegas. The most common theme among fans? Well, it’s that Davis should sell the Raiders. Will that happen? It’s highly unlikely, but that doesn’t stop Raider Nation from letting their displeasure be known.
Sell the team they say…
Sell the team. He’s the problem

What’re the raiders winning off the field? Mark Davis needs to sell this team. We ain’t winning anytime soon with bowl cut owning the team, check down Carr under center, and a GM in Mayock who supports a coach that says “the score board isn’t the only thing that matters”
