The Las Vegas Raiders, coming off a disappointing four-win season, nearly pulled off an upset against the Kansas City Chiefs in a thrilling Week 13 encounter. With just moments left, trailing by two points, the Raiders prepared for a final play, which was intended to set up kicker Daniel Carlson for a game-winning field goal. However, a mishap occurred during the snap between rookie center Jackson Powers-Johnson and quarterback Aidan O'Connell, leading to a turnover that dashed their hopes.

This season, the Raiders are looking to rebound with a fresh approach and the young talents of O'Connell and Powers-Johnson at the forefront. The pressure to perform will be on them as they navigate through their revamped roster, which is expected to show marked improvement.
