Is all hope lost for the Las Vegas Raiders? Technically, their 2-4 record is far from optimal, but objectively, a couple more wins could bring them back to .500 this season. Despite this, many fans are beginning to adopt a “tank” mentality for the remainder of the season, primarily due to the clear need for improvement at quarterback.
Regardless, there’s still much football left to be played; up next we have the Los Angeles Rams. Let’s see what the Raider Ramble staff is predicting.
Las Vegas Raiders Week 7 predictions – The Raider Ramble staff

Rams 21-7
Given how anemic the Raiders offense looked after the first quarter last week, there’s zero reason to have faith in Luke Getsy. Indeed, injuries have battered the Rams, yet the poor execution of the offense negates this advantage. Oh, and if you’re convinced that this offense is better without Davante Adams, I’m at a loss for words.

Raiders 17-13
The Raiders, despite the expectations of most fans, are facing a Rams team that has been plagued by injuries. With both teams lacking offensive firepower, this will be a boring game to watch. The Silver and Black are determined to win despite the uncertainty surrounding a rebuild. Maxx Crosby will have another dominant performance and lead the team to victory.

24-17 Raiders
The Raiders are in need of a “get right” game. What better place to accomplish that than their second home of SoFi Stadium? What better opponent than the Los Angeles Rams, a team even more battered than the Silver and Black? Here’s to hoping Las Vegas head coach Antonio Pierce can coerce veteran QB Matthew Stafford to return to Allegiant with the Raiders after they record their third win of the season.
