Before the start of the 2022 season, this week’s Thursday night game was expected to be a banger with all sorts of playoff potential. The Las Vegas Raiders were expected to be a serious contender and the Rams were the defending Super Bowl champs. What could go wrong?
As it turns out, a lot for these two teams. Neither the Raiders nor the Rams have had a season that fans are going to want to remember. The Rams are in the cellar of the NFC West and the Raiders are 5-7 and in third in the AFC West. A victory over the Rams, though, could keep their playoff dreams alive. And, let’s face it, everyone loves a comeback story, especially late in the year.
