The past few years have been a roller coaster ride for Raiders fans, with some of the most shocking wins and loss stats you could imagine.
As we head into Week 8, the Raiders are set to face off against the defending Super Bowl champions and 6-0 Kansas City Chiefs. This brings us to our first wild stat that defines the Raiders.
The Raiders were the last team to beat the Chiefs on Christmas last year. Since that game, the Chiefs have gone on to win the Super Bowl and start the undefeated season. Now, this one is just the first of a couple of wild stats to get into, as shared by the AP's Josh Dubow.
The Raiders are also the last team to beat the Baltimore Ravens, who are an absolute terror, winning their last five games. After losing to the Raiders in Week 2, the Ravens have started to look like one of the best teams in football once again.

With the positive wild stats out of the way let's move into the nitty gritty, the negative stats. In the 2024 NFL season the Raiders are the only team to lose to the Carolina Panthers. The Week 3 matchup had all the makings for a trap game, which is exactly what it turned into for the Raiders. Unfortunately for them, no one else has fallen into that trap this season.
For this next one we have to go all the way back to Week 10 of the 2022 season. The Raiders faced off against the Indianapolis Colts and their interim head coach Jeff Saturday. The Raiders would lose that game and become the only team to lose to a team coached by Saturday that season.
So, if this tells you anything, it's when you're watching a Raiders game, you never know the team you're going to get.
