Offense
A year after finishing sixth in the NFL in total offense and seventh in scoring, the Raiders were 17th and 22nd in those respective categories. Derek Carr, in the first season of a five-year, $125 million contract, tied his career high in interceptions (13) and ranked 18th in passer rating (86.4) among quarterbacks with at least 250 attempts. The running game picked up in the second half as Marshawn Lynch averaged 78.1 yards in his last eight games.
Defense
The unit improved under John Pagano, despite allowing a season-high 495 yards in Sunday’s finale.
