3 NFL teams that should be worried after Week 5

The Las Vegas Raiders are a team that should be worried after Week 5. Despite a promising start to the season, they have struggled mightily in their last two games. In a devastating loss to the Patriots, the Raiders' defense was exposed both in the air and on the ground. Drake Maye threw for 374 yards, and the rushing attack led by Rhomondre Stephenson accumulated 165 yards and two scores.

Offensively, Las Vegas struggled as the running game was stagnant, averaging just 2.1 yards per carry. While the team has shown improvement since last year, this performance suggests they are not yet a complete product. With a tough matchup against the Bills next week, the Raiders will need to address their deficiencies to remain competitive in the competitive AFC West.
