The Raiders have lost three in a row, the last of which was a home game against the Ravens, who had the worst passing attack in the league.
It’s been a shocking turnaround after a 2-0 start, and players wish they could explain it.
“We’re just in a funk,” defensive end Khalil Mack said. “If you knew why you were in a funk, you wouldn’t be in it. All you can do is keep plugging away and stick together.”
Mack was held without a quarterback pressure for the first time in two years last week, and the reigning Defensive Player of the Year desperately needs some help as he is double-teamed and sometimes even triple-teamed.
