LAS VEGAS (KSNV) \u2014 The Las Vegas Raiders are looking to snap a three-game losing streak as they prepare to host the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday, with offensive consistency remaining a major focus for head coach Klint Kubiak.<\/p>\n
Through six games, quarterback Kirk Cousins is tied for the NFL lead with 14 touchdown passes. But despite the success through the air, the Raiders have struggled to establish a consistent running game.<\/p>\n
Finding that balance will be especially important against a Rams defense that has been among the league\u2019s toughest this season, despite dealing with injuries along its defensive front.<\/p>\n
The Raiders have continued to search for answers on the ground, with rookie running back Ashton Jeanty and the offensive line working to establish a more consistent rhythm.<\/p>\n
But the challenges extend beyond the running game.<\/p>\n
Las Vegas has struggled coming out of halftime, being outscored 24-3 in the third quarter during its three-game losing streak.<\/p>\n
Kubiak acknowledged this week that there is a mental component to those struggles, emphasizing the need to address how the team responds and executes coming out of the break.<\/p>\n
The Raiders have shown flashes of offensive potential, but sustaining that production throughout all four quarters remains a priority.<\/p>\n
Sunday presents another significant challenge against a Rams team also looking to snap a three-game losing streak.<\/p>\n
For Las Vegas, the focus will be on establishing offensive balance, improving its second-half execution and finding a way to turn promising stretches into a complete performance.<\/p>\n
