Las Vegas Raiders coach Pete Carrol expects consistency from the offense

The Las Vegas Raiders’ offense has struggled this season, to say the least. With high expectations to start the season, the offense flashed its potential in Week 1. Since that game, their explosiveness came to a screeching halt and now average 14 [points per game which is 31st in the NFL.

Their next matchup is against a Dallas Cowboys defense that is off to a rough start. The Cowboys are 31st in points allowed, averaging 30.8 per game, and it will be a test for the Raiders to get their offense going.

Pete Carroll spoke about the upcoming matchup on Thursday and said what he wanted to see from the offense. What he pointed out was consistency after such a disappointing start.

“Two weeks ago we were gaga over the performance that we had and Brock’s return and all of that…unfortunately we come back this past week…and we couldn’t get going on them…but I’m expecting us to get better and more consistent.”

Many fans would say the Raiders need to target Bowers as well, who had only two catches last week. It should be a game where the Silver and Black move the football and score points. If they don’t, changes could be made to the coaching staff once again.
