Top Offensive Options Raiders Must Monitor for Dolphins (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Las Vegas Raiders face their season opener, and they hope to kick off the 2026 season with a win. This is one of the few matchups where the Raiders should be favored to win all of this season.

Preseason is meant to prepare the team for the regular season and to give younger players and undrafted free agents opportunities to secure a spot on the 53-man roster. It's up to you to decide how much stock you want to put in preseason performances, but I believe there are defi
Pressing Questions Still Looming Over Raiders' Offense (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Las Vegas Raiders have an argument to be the most improved team in the NFL heading into next season. They addressed the majority of their needs in the preseason, and it finally feels like this franchise is on an upward trajectory. They've been stuck in the mud for a long time, and Raider Nation finally has some hope to hold on to. Even though they've added plenty of talent to their roster, there are still some areas with glaring question marks. What are the Raiders' biggest questions heading
