LANDOVER, Md. — It’s only Week 3, but the Raiders need to stop and reassess some things.
This was awful.
You don’t want one forgettable performance to spill into another.
You don’t want to become the Raiders of the past.
Because that’s sure how things looked Sunday.
There wasn’t much good that came of a 41-24 loss to the Commanders at Northwest Stadium. Won’t be much on film to applaud. A lot to cringe at, though.
The Raiders were badly outplayed in all three phases, and some of it was things of folly.
They were confident about bouncing back from a “Monday Night Football” loss to the Chargers and taking care of business against a backup quarterback. But the opposite occurred.
Same ol’ Raiders?
Sure seemed like it.
What’s the standard?
“Absolutely not,” defensive end Maxx Crosby
