The Las Vegas Raiders and their fanbase are ready for Week 1. The preseason is over and it is time for the real games that count.
Las Vegas head coach Antonio Pierce made his case for the job in 2024. His leadership and personality are connected with the players, and he had the defense playing at a high level. It helped the Raiders win games and have a chance at the playoffs late in the season. Now he has a chance to put his imprint on Raiders history with the full-time job. His first test is the Los Angeles Chargers with new head coach Jim Harbaugh on the road.
