The Las Vegas Raiders don't have much to play for but pride during the final five games of the 2025 NFL season. While the fan base is largely in full-on tank mode, most of the players and coaches in the building know that they are fighting for their jobs and NFL futures.
While that is admirable and absolutely the way to approach something as fleeting as life in the NFL, the franchise's big picture and bottom line are also incredibly important. The Raiders can't lose their footing on the future too much while trying to cling to this broken season.
