Raiders: Why every game still counts for this team

You may be expecting this to be another typical piece lamenting that the time for the Oakland Raiders‘ final game in the Coliseum is drawing near. That is a part of it, but I’m thinking bigger picture.

An MLB season is 162 games long, 82 games each for NHL and NBA, and most notable professional soccer leagues are anywhere from 34 to 38 games in a season. In the NFL, you get 16 games.

Wins are few and far between for most franchises, but since the Raiders fell flat in the 2002 Super Bowl, few have found them rarer than the Silver and Black nation.
