Another week and another way that the Las Vegas Raiders find a way to lose a ball game.

The Week 9 matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars was especially gut-wrenching, as the Raiders managed to take the game to overtime before a failed two-point conversion resulted in a one-point defeat. On the bright side, Las Vegas’ offense showed life with arguably its best performance of the season, providing some optimism in this week’s winners and losers.

WINNER: Brock Bowers

Battling a knee injury since the season opener, there was a lot of chatter about Bowers’ lack of production in year...

The Raiders made the choice after the bye week to bench former starting CB Kyu Blu Kelly, who logged 0 defensive snaps vs the Jaguars, in favor for 3rd rounder Darien Porter Jr. Additionally, UDFA Greedy Vance and Jeremy Chinn seemed to play the nickel more often with Tristin McCollum seeing a career high number of snaps on defense with the Raiders playing a big nickel look more often. The Raiders also allowed 17 points in the 2nd half which allowed the Jaguars an opportunity to come back.

Porter struggled at times but also succeeded allowing 5 receptions for 65...

Forcing a punt, then getting a timely interception in the end zone, and forcing another punt, the Las Vegas Raiders defense bent but didn’t break in the first half against the visiting Jacksonville Jaguars.

And at halftime, all the Silver & Black yielded in terms of points was a record-breaking 68-yard field goal from Cam Little. With 6-3 lead in hand, things looked on the up-and-up.

However, looks can be deceiving.

That quick field goal drive (a minute and 36 seconds to be exact) was one of of six-straight consecutive drives by the Jaguars that resulted in points (two field...

The Raiders lost to the Jaguars 30-29 (OT) on Sunday and were powered by the return of All-Pro TE Brock Bowers. Bowers returned to the Raiders lineup after nearly 6 weeks out with a sprained MCL and other knee issues.

The 2024 first round pick logged 12 receptions for 127 yards and 3 touchdowns. Notably, Bowers generated an amazing catch towards the pylon that pushed the Raiders to break the games 0-0 tie late in the 2nd quarter. Bowers also generated 62 yards after the catch and continued to be a focal point in the Raiders offense after his return...

Las Vegas Raiders are on a short week as they play at the Denver Broncos on Thursday night to kick off the NFL’s Week 10 schedule. Kickoff is set for 5:15 p.m. PT.

Let’s take a quick look at the Broncos:

Record:

The Broncos are 7-2 after at 18-15 win at the Houston Texans on Sunday. The Broncos played earlier than the Raiders did Sunday, but they had to travel home, so the rest will be a wash.

Last meeting:

The Broncos beat the Raiders 29-19 on November 24, 2024 at Allegiant Stadium. The Broncos swept Las Vegas during the...

The one silver lining to the Las Vegas Raiders’ Week 9 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars is that it can help improve the Raiders’ positioning in the 2026 NFL Draft order. However, the problem is that Las Vegas is still outside the Top 5 picks, and its path is murky to get into that range with so many other bad teams in the NFL this year. That could impact the organization’s ability to get a new quarterback, as we take a look at the updated Top 10 picks.

The Las Vegas Raiders had a crushing loss in overtime against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday. The 30-29 loss brings them to 2-6 on the season, and the team appears more likely to pick in the top ten for the 2025 NFL Draft.

Brock Bowers made his return on Sunday with a bang, scoring three touchdowns and gaining 127 yards receiving. It wasn’t enough as the defense struggled to tackle and allowed the Jaguars to score on six straight possessions in the second half. Now the Raiders have a quick turnaround and play Thursday Night against the Denver Broncos.

Despite many already calling for the Las Vegas Raiders to start thinking about the future heading into the Week 9 matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars, Pete Carroll and the Raiders appeared determined to squeeze as much as they can out of the 2025 season.

The best example is signing a 33-year-old Tyler Lockett earlier in the week, and having him take snaps over rookie wide receivers Jack Bech and Dont’e Thornton Jr., with the latter being a healthy scratch in favor of the veteran. So, it’s almost fitting that Las Vegas lost on a failed two-point attempt where quarterback Geno...

Well, at least, it wasn’t boring.

A 6-3 stinker at halftime turned into a wild 30-29 overtime thriller between the Las Vegas Raiders and the Jacksonville Jaguars.

In the end, the Raiders fell short in overtime and are 2-6. Their season continues to free fall and this was a winnable game against a team that was much more injured and that was on a two-game losing streak.

Let’s look at some keys to the game:

The two-point conversion:

OK, let’s right this out of the way — it was the right call.

There were 16 seconds in overtime and the...

The Las Vegas Raiders are hosting the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday. Here is everything to need to know about the game:

First quarter

The Jaguars got the ball at their 40 but couldn’t get a first down and were forced to punt to open the game.

Ashton Jeanty had some nice runs, but the Raiders’ opening drive stalled and they were forced to punt.

The Jaguars went on a long drive, 17-play drive and were helped by several missed tackles by the Raiders. But Trevor Lawrence threw a terrible interception to safety Isaiah Pola-Mao in the end zone on a...
