Oakland Raiders: Five weeks in, we’re still waiting for that 1998 revival

When Oakland Raiders new/old HC Jon Gruden came storming in, it was with all of the bluster, bravado, and high, almost manic energy we’ve come to expect – and even enjoy – about the man. His passion and enthusiasm are endearing, and infectious to many.

Unfortunately, that energy, passion, and enthusiasm hasn’t translated into many wins just yet. Like at all.

Oakland’s 1-4 start has been largely due to the team’s inability to hold on to leads in the second half of games. In their first three games, the Raiders held leads heading into the second half.
