Description

The Las Vegas Raiders are grappling with a significant issue: their inability to stop opponents on third downs. Star defensive end Maxx Crosbys knee soreness adds to their concerns, as hes a key player who often plays every snap. The defense has allowed high third-down conversion rates in recent games, leading to extended possession times for opponents. Poor tackling has also been a persistent problem, with the team ranking near the bottom of the league in this crucial metric. Offensively, the Raiders have struggled on third downs as well, converting only a small fraction of their attempts. As they prepare to face the Philadelphia Eagles, the team must address these issues to improve their overall performance.
