ALAMEDA — Having already made the argument that the Raiders’ 34-3 loss to the 49ers Thursday night was the worst in franchise history, here are some other notable defeats worth considering.
A few criteria worth noting. The worse the Raiders team, the more weight it carried. That’s why you won’t see any losses from the first Oakland era nor in Los Angeles. The caliber of opposition was considered, as well as if the defeat exemplified the struggles that came during the season. Only games which occurred after Al Davis joined the organization in 1963 were considered.
