SB Nation Reacts: Raiders fans have their lowest confidence in the team’s direction

Raiders fans are not excited about where the team is headed heading into Week 8

The Raiders’ injuries continue to pile up. With Aidan O’Connell sent to IR for the next four weeks, the Raiders will depend on Gardner Minshew. They added quarterback Desmond Ridder, who will be Minshew’s backup.

Antonio Pierce has fans questioning whether he is the man to lead the football team. If things continue to spiral, he could end up being the scapegoat for the season.

In this week’s SB Nation Reacts, we asked Raider Nation for their confidence in the team’s direction going forward. This week’s survey saw the lowest number of the season. Raiders fans’ confidence in the team’s direction fell to 14% going into Week 8.

The Raiders host the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday in their third-division matchup. They will be heavy underdogs, as they were the last team to beat the Chiefs the previous Christmas. It will be a tough matchup for a team in a big slump.
