LAS VEGAS’ BEST PUSHBACK

Offense Is Las Vegas’ Only Close Fight

Las Vegas' offense gives the team one place to push back. The Raiders are only 3.3 points behind Seattle in Offense, but that is where Las Vegas' case ends. Seattle still has Sam Darnold at quarterback and the deeper roster, two advantages the Raiders cannot match in this comparison.
