The Raiders in Paradise Podcast

For the second straight week, the Raiders had a 1st place team on the ropes and couldn't finish. Did Antonio Pierce blow his shot to become head coach? Plus, Aidan O'Connell, Marcus Peters cut, Maxx Crosby's knee, and more. 

The Raiders had a golden opportunity to upset the Dolphins and bolster their playoff chances but fell short. How we feeling? We do a temperature check on coach Antonio Pierce and his choice at quarterback, Aidan O'Connell, plus much more. 

It wasn't pretty, but the Raiders won their second game in as many tries with coach Antonio Pierce at the helm. Could AP lead Vegas to a win against the Dolphins or even the Chiefs down the stretch? 

The Raiders lost their way, but they've seemingly found it with coach Antonio Pierce and defensive superstar Maxx Crosby. Do the Raiders have what it takes to keep the good times rolling? 

Raiders owner Mark Davis had seen enough after Vegas' latest loss and cleaned house. Was it the right decision? 

The Raiders lost in embarrassing fashion to a shorthanded Bears team, and now many Raiders fans want Josh McDaniels fired. Will he make it through his second season in Vegas? 

The Raiders beat another team they were supposed to beat. But can they get their offense rolling? And will the defense remain as solid as it's been thus far? 

The Raiders had a big win on Monday night to snap a three game losing streak, but their offense still has issues, as they haven't scored more than 20 points in a game this season. 

The Raiders lost their home opener on national TV, 23-18 to the Steelers. If that wasn't bad enough, coach Josh McDaniels opted for a FG down eight points with just over 2 minutes remaining. Does this loss put him on the hot seat? 

Luke and Larry's worst fears came true in the Raiders' 38-10 loss to the Bills. Las Vegas was dominated in the trenches and on defense. Can coach Josh McDaniels win his home opener and prove his roster is good enough, and that he's the man for the job? 

The Jimmy Garoppolo era in Las Vegas started with a win. Larry even praises coach McDaniels. But how can the Raiders keep winning? More touches for Davante Adams and more help for Maxx Crosby top The RIPP's list. 

We present an optimistic look at the Raiders upcoming season and react to headlines about Derek Carr and Raiders WR Davante Adams

Luke and Larry talk about the good and bad from the Raiders' 2023 draft haul. Plus, Davante Adams says he doesn't see "eye to eye" with McZiegler. How can the Raiders possibly become a winner this season? 

Luke and Larry are back to talk about the state of the Raiders after the initial wave of free agency. Plus, the Darren Waller trade. Is Las Vegas better off without the prolific tight end?

The Raiders lost to the 49ers in overtime, but the offense didn't miss a beat without ex-franchise QB Derek Carr. Is Jarrett Stidham the Raiders QB of the future? Twitter @raiderparadise @raiderlarry @lukejstraub Available wherever podcasts are found!

We like that Carr is apparently on his way out, but the execution is laughable. Also, do we trust the new regime? And how will this impact Davante Adams? Twitter @raiderparadise @raiderlarry @lukejstraub Available wherever podcasts are found!

The Raiders beat the Patriots on a miraculous play by Chandler Jones as time expired, but we want to see more from Derek Carr and the offense, starting in frigid Pittsburgh, as the Steelers celebrate the Immaculate Reception, granting the Raiders another shot at redemption.
