Las Vegas Raiders NFLPA survey results further highlight 2025 season coaching staff issues
The failures of the short-lived Pete Carroll era for the Las Vegas Raiders have already been well-documented, and the NFLPA survey results are not doing last year’s coaching staff any favors. ESPN’s Kalyn Kahler obtained the results, which were voted on by players on NFL rosters from Nov. 22 to Dec. 11, and the Raiders […]
The fullback position will return to Las Vegas Raiders
Klint Kubiak is re-energizing Raider Nation as the new Las Vegas Raiders head coach. And for good reason. Kubiak represents a beacon of hope for a football team that featured one of the worst offenses the storied franchise witness in 2025. The incompetence rivals the Bed & Breakfast offense way back in 2006 and was […]
What switching to 3-4 defense means for Maxx Crosby, Tyree Wilson, Las Vegas Raiders’ current roster
At the NFL Combine, new Las Vegas Raiders head coach Klint Kubiak told reporters that the defense will shift to a 3-4 base under recently promoted defensive coordinator Rob Leonard. With Patrick Graham running the unit, the Raiders used odd fronts (which is what a “3-4 defense” really means in the modern NFL), but it […]
Jermaine Eluemunor, Braden Smith, Las Vegas Raiders’ top right tackle options in free agency
Especially since the Las Vegas Raiders are expected to use the No. 1 overall pick in the 2026 NFL draft on Indiana quarterback Fernando Mendoza, the Raiders should be looking to add a right tackle during free agency this offseason. Also, the offense needs to give last year’s first-round selection, running back Ashton Jeanty, more […]

Tyler Linderbaum, Alijah Vera-Tucker, Las Vegas Raiders’ top interior offensive line options in free agency
It’s no secret that the Las Vegas Raiders need to get better in the trenches this offseason, especially on the interior offensive line. Luckily, the 2026 NFL free agency class is loaded with guards and centers, giving the Raiders plenty of options to address those positions on the open market. Also, Jackson Powers-Johnson’s versatility provides […]
Ashton Jeanty provided solid value as a rookie
While he had issues with his blocking and coaching, Las Vegas Raiders running back Ashton Jeanty flashed at times for the team and showed he has a solid future ahead of him under the guidance of new head coach Klint Kubiak and his staff. Jeanty, the No. 6 overall draft pick in 2025, had 975 […]

Are we getting a Maxx Crosby hint?
While the Las Vegas Raiders continue to say they want and expect Maxx Crosby to be a part of the team moving forward, the reality the speculation isn’t going away. And it won’t until Crosby himself declares it a moot point. Interestingly, we may have gotten a clue why Crosby hasn’t point-bank publicly said anything […]

There will be major scheme switch for the Las Vegas Raiders under new defensive coordinator Rob Leonard.

Could Klint Kubiak go back to 49ers’ days for wide receiver help?
There is no doubt, the Las Vegas Raiders will look to add to the wide-receiver position this offseason. Clearly, new head coach Klint Kubiak will have a role identifying some targets. While it won’t be a surprise, at all, if Kubiak, who was the Seattle Seahawks’ offensive coordinator in 2025, helps pursue Seahawks’ wide receiver […]

As rumors fly at the NFL combine about the future of star defensive end Maxx Crosby, Las Vegas Raiders general manager John Spytek did his best to downplay the noise.

Expect to see this change for Las Vegas Raiders’ offense
Let’s face it; Klint Kubiak was hired as the new head coach of the Las Vegas Raiders because of what he can bring to the team’s offense, beginning in the 20-26 season.
