Raiders' Preseason Struggles Exposed | Las Vegas Raiders News

The Las Vegas Raiders are facing mounting challenges in preseason, with recurring penalties, sloppy tackling, and shaky offensive timing exposing key areas for improvement. Despite a gritty comeback win against the Texans, their eight penalties for 75 yards last week and nine for 83 yards this one are costing them games. Head coach Klint Kubiak is holding coaches accountable to fix rule violations—especially on special teams and defense—and insists young players must learn faster. Tackling remains inconsistent, though they showed progress against the Texans. Offensively, quarterback Fernando Mendoza and the line still need chemistry, as constant rotations hinder rhythm. With just one preseason game left before the regular season, fixing these issues is critical—or they’ll be in trouble come Week 1.
