The Las Vegas Raiders are a sleeping giant in the AFC ahead of the 2025 NFL season. While the conference is loaded with some of the best quarterbacks and teams in the league, the Silver and Black are just a few young players panning out away from being in playoff talks.
Of course, this is assuming players like Brock Bowers, Jakobi Meyers, Kolton Miller and Maxx Crosby can continue to perform at the level that they have. Regardless of how you slice it, however, the talent is clearly there in Las Vegas, and it will be on head coach Pete Carroll and his staff to maximize it.
