HENDERSON, Nev. -- Las Vegas Raiders coach Antonio Pierce acknowledged Monday that his team, mired in a three-game losing streak, is in a "dark moment," but dismissed talk of the Raiders checking out.
"I'll be honest, I didn't expect to be 2-5 -- like to see that flipped -- but at the end of the day, you've got to live in reality and that's what we're dealing with," Pierce said Monday in his weekly media conference.
"There's still a lot of football left. The season's not over. We're not tanking. We're not trying to lose games to do anything better for the future.
