Silver Minings: Derek Carr or not, Raiders defense must improve

Of course, the Las Vegas Raiders ownership and brass has pointed to quarterback Derek Carr as the the primary reason for the disappointing 2022 season and they will likely replace him moving forward.

But whether or not Carr is replaced (it’s probable), the new quarterback in Las Vegas will likely not be the answer alone. The Raiders have other issues, of course and the problems start with the defense.

Defense has been a long-term weak spot for the franchise and the constant change of coordinators on that side of the ball hasn’t helped. There is speculation that Patrick Graham will return for a second season in Las Vegas despite underwhelming results.
