Plenty has gone wrong for the Las Vegas Raiders' offense during the 2025 NFL season, including poor play from and injuries to the offensive line, Brock Bowers spending much of the year banged up, and poor play-calling from offensive coordinator Chip Kelly.
It is hard to deny, however, that the biggest contributing factor has been the struggles of veteran quarterback Geno Smith. The two-time Pro Bowler was acquired in the offseason at the steep price of a third-round pick to bring stability to the quarterback position.
He has failed to do so, however, as he has been among the league's worst signal-callers, and his future with the Silver and Black has already been called into question after nine games.
