🔮 Arizona played much better in the second half, but could not overcome the early hole.
🔮 The Raiders, otherwise, have leaned heavily on tight ends Brock Bowers and Michael Mayer and running back Ashton Jeanty for their passing game — their top three receivers.
🔮 The Raiders need help at the position, and could get even more soon with Jack Bech (broken forearm) having his 21-day window to come off IR opened Monday.
🔮 LAS VEGAS (AP) — This was, especially in the first half, the kind of Rams team many expected to see all along.
🔮 Both were three-point losses, and doing even slightly better inside the 20-yard line could have been enough to flip those games.
🔮 LAS VEGAS (AP) — LeBron James might have shifted the power in the Eastern Conference — and perhaps the NBA in general — when he ended eight seasons with the Los Angeles Lakers to sign with Philadelphia.
🔮 Michael Mayer caught seven passes for a career-high 95 yards for Las Vegas, and fellow tight end Brock Bowers hauled in four receptions for 70 yards.
🔮 The Raiders ’ young secondary calmed a lot of nerves in the first four games, making plays and showing maybe it won’t be an area of concern this season.
🔮 Kubiak made it clear that Cousins still tops the depth chart, and the 15-year veteran has done little that would justify a change.
🔮 The Chiefs (4-0) now look as if they could be ready to begin another streak.
