ALAMEDA, Calif. (AP) – Now that their playoff hopes are officially extinguished, the Oakland Raiders are left looking to achieve much smaller goals.
A season-ending victory in Kansas City on Sunday would end a streak of seven straight losing seasons and give Oakland (7-8) its first perfect record in the AFC West since 1976. Those are just consolation prizes right now for a team that believed it was good enough to win the division.
The Raiders will be left out of the playoffs once again, having been eliminated by Kansas City’s 34-14 victory Sunday that wrapped up early in the first quarter of Oakland’s home finale.
The Raiders went on to lose 31-26 to Indianapolis, ending any chance at a winning season.
