Raiders focus on 3rd-quarter scoring woes after losses to Chiefs and Bills
(AP) — The Las Vegas Raiders have had just about every chance to build on their surprising 3-0 start even while facing a gauntlet of Super Bowl contenders the past three weeks.Except for a 45-17 blowout loss at New England on Oct.
The Las Vegas Raiders are concentrating on their third-quarter scoring issues after suffering losses to the Kansas City Chiefs and Buffalo Bills. Despite a 3-0 start, the team has struggled in the third quarter, allowing their opponents to score 24-3 in that period this season. Coach Klint Kubiak expressed concern over the lack of production, stating that it puts the team in a bad spot.
The Raiders were outscored 10-0 by the Bills in the third quarter, ultimately losing the game. Quarterback Kirk Cousins had a strong performance, with 313 passing yards and two touchdown passes, but his interception set up Buffalo's touchdown. The Raiders' red-zone conversion rate is the worst in the NFL at 52.2%, and their defense has given up 30-plus points in each of the past three games.
The team faces the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday, looking to improve their performance coming out of the third quarter.
