It’s getting better, folks.
’ playoff odds still don’t offer great hope. But because they have continued to win, the Raiders playoff chances continue to increase.
According to the New York Times, Las Vegas now has a 21 percent chance of making the playoffs with two games to go. Two weeks ago — before the 8-7 Raiders beat the Cleveland Browns (-3.5)
— their playoff odds were eight percent, and prior to Week 16’s home win over the Denver Broncos (+6.5), they were at 13 percent.
Now, they have continued to creep up.
