HENDERSON, Nev. -- The Las Vegas Raiders open the 2021 NFL regular season against the Baltimore Ravens on Sept. 13 at Allegiant Stadium. The Raiders went 8-8 last season, finishing the year with five losses in the final seven games to miss the playoffs for the fourth straight season.
After an offseason of rebuilding the offensive and defensive lines, the Raiders got younger and more versatile in the trenches, while remaining explosive at the offensive skill positions. The defense was also overhauled and while the Raiders were three defensive stops away from an 11-5 season and a playoff berth, they were also three plays away from a 5-11 finish.
