The Las Vegas Raiders are coming off an ugly performance on offense, losing 20-9 to the Los Angeles Chargers. The defense held strong and gave them a chance to win, but the passing game could not get it together.
Geno Smith did not complete a pass over 10 yards and threw three interceptions. The offensive line struggled as well, but the passing attack couldn’t get it together. Pete Carroll is hoping for a bounce-back game from his players as they go on the road to Washington to face the Commanders.
In this week’s SB Nation Reacts, we ask the Raider Nation what their confidence is in the team’s direction. The results are in, and it is a massive drop from the previous week. Confidence saw a 30-point drop, with 66% of fans having confidence in the team’s direction.
With the Raiders facing a Washington Commanders team without their starting quarterback, it could be a bounce-back week. While they shouldn’t take Marcus Mariota lightly, they are going to be facing an offensive line that can be exploited. It could be a confidence boost for fans heading into Week 4.
