2025 Summary (W-L Record: 3-14)
2025 was supposed to be the start of a rebuild with Pete Carroll turning one more franchise into a championship organization.
It ended up being a continuation of years of Raiders misery.

The Raiders finished the year 3-14, earned the #1 overall pick, and promptly fired Carroll after the season.
With the exception of their first game, a road win over the eventual AFC-Champion Patriots, and the fact that their terrible play ultimately led to the drafting of Fernando Mendoza, nothing went right last season for the Raiders.
Just look at those numbers above, particularly on offense. Dead last in points. Dead last in yards. Bottom-5 in passing. Dead last in rushing.
While the defense had a better season than the offense, they still weren’t much to write home about either.
So this offseason, the Raiders began yet another rebuild.

Biggest Questions Entering 2026
When will Fernando Mendoza Play?
We all know the Raiders are probably not doing much this season. 2026 is all about trying to set the foundation for the future.
Kirk Cousins will be the starter out of the gate. Will that be for the entire season? Will the Raiders pick an ideal game midway through the year to give Mendoza his first start? Everything seems to be on the table.
