A nice drop from 81%
The Las Vegas Raiders are on their bye week after losing two consecutive games. Last week, they fought hard, but their talent deficiencies stood out in a 31-17 loss to the Chiefs.
Antonio Pierce is now 2-2 as the interim head coach, and fans are questioning his decisions. The team has been conservative on offense on offense the last two weeks, putting pressure on the defense to make plays. When they played Kansas City, the defense started to crack, leading to the first loss at home since Week 3.
In this week’s SB Nation Reacts, we ask again for your confidence in the team’s future. Last week, it was a substantial 83%, but we could see a drop after this loss. The drop was significant, with 63% of Raiders fans believing in the team’s direction.
The back-to-back losses soured the overall feel of the season. The playoffs are almost out of reach, and they are still struggling on offense. Raiders get the Minnesota Vikings after the bye week and hope to bounce back.
