A weekly examination of the Oakland Raiders' ESPN.com Power Ranking:
Rank: 9 | Last Week: 4
Comment: It was not so much that the Raiders lost the regular-season finale at the Denver Broncos on Sunday that caused so much harm to their standing in our final power rankings of the regular season.
It was how bad and how listless the Raiders looked in doing so without Derek Carr at quarterback. They blew an opportunity to win the AFC West title, get a first-round bye and host to a playoff game.
