20. Two interesting tidbits on this season for the Raiders
Mon Jan 10, 2022, 05:44 AM
Jan 2022

The Raiders will be the fourth playoff team to have a different coach in the postseason than in its season opener, with Bisaccia joining the 1961 Houston Oilers (Wally Lemm), the 1952 Los Angeles Rams (Hamp Pool) and the 1942 Chicago Bears (co-coaches Hunk Anderson and Luke Johnsos), according to Elias Sports Bureau research.

Indeed, the Raiders won their final four games by a total of 12 points, the lowest scoring margin in NFL history by a team to win its final four games, per Elias. The 1926 Kansas City Cowboys won their final four games by a combined 16 points.
