Raider Nation will be eagerly watching this year's team. There's significant optimism with the new coaching staff and front office that the Raiders are in better hands moving forward. And quick results are expected.
There's every reason to believe this team can hit the ground running with head coach Pete Carroll reunited with QB Geno Smith who has several weapons with which to work. The first big test of that will come very early on.
One of the most pivotal litmus tests of the Raiders 2025 season schedule will come in the team's home opener when they host the Chargers at Allegiant.
