Overview
- Despite a recent morale boost and a resounding win over the New York Giants, the Las Vegas Raiders are predicted to finish their season with a losing record as they face challenging matches ahead.
- The Raiders' remaining schedule poses difficulties, with only three of their eight games against teams with a losing record.
- Despite changes in coaching personnel, bringing a renewed energy to the team, it's uncertain whether interim coach Antonio Pierce will secure himself the full-time head coach role without a deep playoff run.
- The new Raiders regime has a significant amount of room to restructure the roster, with projection to have about $67.9 million in cap space this offseason and owning all of their picks through the first five rounds of the 2024 draft.
- Aidan O’Connell is predicted to remain the starting quarterback for the rest of the season, potentially painting the road for a long-term starter position.
