Most are definitely talking about Davante Adams cooking Patrick Surtain II. The walk-off 35-yard touchdown catch by the Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver immolated the talented Denver Broncos cornerback in the Silver and Black’s 22-16 overtime win Sunday – and it deserves all-day type praise. The game-winner was a play executed to perfection by Adams, …
Broncos Proved Why They’re Worse Than The Raiders On Sunday Read More »
Broke as a joke. Now, we’re not going to go that far, but that seems to be the general consensus when it comes to Mark Davis. The Las Vegas Raiders owner had himself quite the week, with his bank account being questioned as the fervor to dismiss his head coach became volcanic after an abysmal …

Quick! Someone in the Las Vegas Raiders front office should get on the phone with Bret Hart. After all, “The Hitman” was billed as the “Excellence of Execution” during his pro wrestling glory days, and that’s a glaring omission in Silver and Black football.

No one on the Las Vegas Raiders deserves absolution from this mess the Silver and Black have found themselves in. Well, except maybe Daniel Carlson. Add in AJ Cole, too.

I still distinctly remember editors’ rolling their eyes when reading the hackneyed phrase “a tale of two halves.” It’s something I grew weary of too, when I became a sports editor. But as overused as that phrase is, the game of football remains tried and true to timeworn phrases. The Las Vegas Raiders’ 38-20 victory …
Complementary football was there, then it wasn’t. What gives, Las Vegas Raiders? The Silver and Black showed how the three parts of football—offense, defense, and special teams—work together. This helped them jump out to a 17-0 lead against the Kansas City Chiefs in the very hostile Arrowhead stadium. It was such an outlandish advantage that …
For too long, they’ve walked into Arrowhead and rolled snake eyes. Under the lights and on prime-time television, tonight’s the opportune time for the Las Vegas Raiders to seize the moment and cement their culture.

Oh snap! Josh McDaniels’ offense can actually look imposing when the Las Vegas Raiders execute. Who woulda thunk it? All jest aside, the broken-*ss record that both Raiders coaches and players spewed since Week 1’s loss up until Sunday’s 32-23 win over the Denver Broncos harped on execution. If only the Raiders executed the plays …
This Is What Happens When The Raiders Do The Little Things Right Read More »
Would you rather have a bottom-tier red zone offense and defense or have the worst red zone scoring unit and the best red zone defensive unit? Tough choice, eh?

Now here’s something I didn’t expect. Well, two things, actually: one, the Las Vegas Raiders starting their season at 0-3 and two, pulling the “No sh*t, Sherlock” line this quickly. But here we are. So, indulge me for a second. “We’ve been in three close games. It’s not like we’re not competitive or have an …
