The defense is Evan Mcpherson T Shirts much better with the additions of Cory Littleton and Nick Kwiatkowski.But theyre unfortunately still stuck in a division with the Chiefs, Broncos andChargers while facing a tough schedule, which will curb the enthusiasm of the first Las Vegas season.Haislop's take: The Raiders improved significantly in the second year of Gruden's current stint, and their offensive reinforcements (see Henry Ruggs) feel timely. They also have a motivated quarterback in Derek Carr who's in a bit of a make-or-break season.Much of the Raiders' succe s or failure will fall on the QB, but if he plays well, don't be surprised to see the Raiders flirt with a playoff appearance again in their first Vegas year.
