For the Oakland Raiders, the idea of reaching the playoffs is becoming more of a possibility each week.General Manager Reggie McKenzie has constructed a roster that fits Head Coach Jack Del Rio’s mold from top to bottom, and their leadership has this team playing its best football in over a decade. On Sunday against the Carolina Panthers, the Silver and Black clinched their first winning-season in 14 years, dating back to 2002 when the team went to Super Bowl XXXVII, eventually falling to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
This group of young players is hungry and eager to win, and will stop at nothing to achieve that goal.
