The Las Vegas Raiders' defense has not been the sieve many expected it to be going into the 2025 NFL season. Patrick Graham's unit is allowing just 16.5 points per game, which is tied for fifth in the league, and they have the fourth-best run defense in the league, allowing just 70.5 yards per game.
Las Vegas' pass defense is the sixth-worst in the league, but they've faced 36.5 attempts per game, which is tied for the eighth-most. Pete Carroll turned over the Raiders' defense this offseason, and so far, so good. The offense was the far bigger issue during their 20-9 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers.
