It hasn’t been smooth sailing for the Las Vegas Raiders recently, and they come into the 2023 season with a lot of potential, but also a lot of questions. Jimmy Garoppolo is a new name at the starting quarterback position, and fans will be hoping that Josh Jacobs can follow up his career best season after having so many touches in 2022.
In a tough division, it will be interesting to see what 2023 has in store for them. Second year head coach Josh McDaniels has never achieved a winning record whilst holding the top job, and the pressure will be on to see some progress.
