The Raiders have now blown 4 double digit leads this season and only have less than 3 percent chance of making the playoffs.
The Raiders have blown FOUR 13 point leads this season. That's the most in NFL history. FIRE JOSH MCDANIELS

The #Raiders playoffs odds are now at 2.8%, per my simulations.
If they would have held on to win tonight against the #Rams, those odds would have been 10.2%.

"They took away some things down the field, we called a couple…they defended well, forced us to check down a little bit. That's how they play…we didn't make enough plays in the passing game to help us win."
