Last year was a tough year in Oakland. The season started and the expectations were sky high, Derek Carr was on track to becoming one of the top quarterbacks in the league and the Raiders came out the gate swinging with a 2-0 start. Then the whole landscape changed and suddenly the silver and black was losing more than winning again and they just couldn’t get the ship righted.
They finished last year at 6-10 after that 2-0 start, missing the playoffs and getting the number 10 pick in the draft. It was a bitter experience, and that’s just from a fans perspective.
