Raiders offense: Sincere McCormick’s absence compounds group

Running back provided Las Vegas production its ground game sorely needed

As soon as the running back revelation arrived on the scene for the Silver & Black, it was gone in a blur, too.

Such is the case for Sincere McCormick and the Las Vegas Raiders.

After rushing for 175 yards on 32 carries Weeks 12 through 14, the 24-year-old undrafted free agent from USTA provided a much-needed jolt and production at the running back position the Raiders sorely needed. But, against the Atlanta Falcons this past Monday night, the 5-foot-9 and 205-pound tailback carried the rock seven times for...

5 questions with the enemy, Big Cat Country

The only thing riding on the line in the Las Vegas Raiders’ Week 16 matchup with the Jacksonville Jaguars is positioning in the NFL Draft. Both teams have been eliminated from the playoffs and they are only one game apart from each other, so this contest will play a big role in how the draft order looks this offseason.

To preview the game, Gus Logue from our friends at Big Cat Country was kind enough to answer a few questions about the Jaguars for Raider Nation.

Both teams could make sense for top candidate Mike Vrabel

The 2025 NFL coaching rumor mill is already in full as teams prepare to make moves in the offseason.

There are already three teams that will be looking for new full-time coaches after they already fired coaches during the season. They are the New York Jets, New Orleans Saints and Chicago Bears. There, of course, will be more and the Las Vegas Raiders could join the list if they decide to fire Antonio Pierce after one full season.

There are already rumors that the Jets are prepared to make a...

Raiders-Jaguars Week 16: 5 things to watch

Keys to a Las Vegas victory

The Las Vegas Raiders host the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday. Kickoff is set for 1:25 p.m. PT.

Here are five keys to a Las Vegas victory.

Don’t let Mac eat:

Mac Jones, starting for the injured Trevor Lawrence, is a flawed player and he is prone to making mistakes. He has thrown two interceptions in the past two games each. But he can also make some plays. He had 294 yards passing against the Jets with two touchdown passes. The Raiders must keep Jones in check.

Raider Nation confidence isn’t dropping too low after 10 straight losses

The Las Vegas Raiders have not lost ten in a row, sitting at 2-12. The offense is coming off its worst performance of the year, and the injuries continue to pile up for both sides of the ball.

Aidan O’Connell has a chance to return this week, but they lost Sincere McCormick, who had a minor breakout the last few weeks. The silver and black are depleted from the team fans thought would hit the field in August. They hope the Raiders end with the best draft position possible...

Rumors have been circulating of Turner working with Bill Belicheck and he gave his thoughts on the situation

The Las Vegas Raiders made the change to Scott Turner as the OC during their bye week. While the Raiders are moving the ball better during the second half of the season, this has led to points or wins.

However, Turner is respected in most coaching circles for his offensive skills. One of his admirers is new North Carolina head coach Bill Belichick. Belichick is headed to the college ranks, and the word on the street is Turner could be joining him...
