The Las Vegas Raiders endured another tough night in a season defined by missed chances. On Thursday Night Football, they lost 10-7 to the AFC West-leading Denver Broncos, a defeat that highlighted their ongoing struggles and dropped them to a 2-7 record.

Self-Inflicted Mistakes

Throughout the game, the Raiders repeatedly undermined their own efforts. Two key penalties erased potential scoring plays, including a touchdown. Several dropped passes stalled promising drives before they could gain momentum.

Special Teams and Missed Opportunities

A blocked punt and a missed late field goal further deepened the team's frustration, turning what might have been a morale-boosting win into another painful loss.

Geno Smith’s Performance Under Pressure

Quarterback Geno Smith completed 16 of 26 passes for 143 yards. He threw one interception and no touchdowns, mirroring the offense’s overall difficulties. Constant defensive pressure and an unstable offensive line made rhythm hard to find. Despite the obstacles, Smith couldn’t lift his play when the Raiders needed it most.

“The loss dropped Las Vegas to 2-7 and left fans questioning where the team goes from here.”
