Raiders-Colts what they’re saying: Self-inflicted wounds keep Las Vegas out of playoffs

While the Las Vegas Raiders playoff hopes were slim heading into Week 17 as they needed to win out to finish the season and get some help, the Raiders were officially eliminated from the postseason with the 23-20 loss to the Indianapolis Colts.

Las Vegas had opportunities to take control of the contest, but the team’s offense simply wasn’t good enough to get the job done. They started the game with a 12-play field goal drive, but that would account for all of their first-half points as the Silver and Black punted on their next four possessions and trailed 14-3 heading into the locker room.
