Well, September couldn’t have ended much worse for the Las Vegas Raiders. Heading into Week 3, the Raiders were favored on Sunday Night Football against the Pittsburgh Steelers but managed to lose 23-18 in a game that really didn’t feel all that close.
The Steelers held a 16-point lead at the beginning of the fourth quarter and the Raiders added a couple of scores late to make the scoreboard look a little prettier. Also, Pittsburgh took a 10-7 advantage in the middle of the second quarter and never looked back as Las Vegas was forced to play from behind for the majority of the evening.
