The Las Vegas Raiders hoped this season would be different from the disappointing seasons they had experienced recently. Las Vegas made several coaching staff and roster changes to turn things around, but five games into the season, it does not appear those changes had much of an impact.
Las Vegas’ performance has taken a hit, as they faced the Indianapolis Colts without Brock Bowers and Kolton Miller, among others. Entering the season, most would have guessed the Raiders would look like they did on Sunday against the Indianapolis Colts without Mayer and Miller.
Carroll Still Believes
The changes the Raiders made this offseason have been overshadowed by the losses the Raiders’ roster has sustained. Las Vegas is not built to sustain any loss, let alone injuries to its best players. Still, the season must continue.
The Raiders’ 1-4 start to the season was far from ideal. Still, the Raiders have 12 games left and no time to complain about injuries to some of their best players. Every team in the National Football League is dealing with injuries; the Raiders must figure out how to overcome them.
