Pete Carroll's Raiders Stumble Out of the Gate

Pete Carroll's first season with the Las Vegas Raiders is not going as planned.

A Rough Patch

After a strong start to the season, the team has lost four games in a row. The losses have been by an average of more than two touchdowns. This is not what Carroll expected when he joined the team.

A History of Success

Carroll has a history of success in the NFL. He has won 10 games a year for 20 years. He also won a Super Bowl with the Seattle Seahawks. But his first season with the Raiders is not living up to his expectations.

Struggles on the Field

Carroll said he expected to win right away. But the team is struggling. Quarterback Geno Smith has thrown nine interceptions, which is the worst in the NFL. This is a big reason why the Raiders are out of the playoff race.

Young Talent, Underwhelming Performance

The team has young talent, but it is not showing up on the field. First-round pick Ashton Jeanty has had a modest start to his career. Star tight end Brock Bowers has only had one game with more than 46 receiving yards.

Carroll's Perspective

Carroll is not happy with the team's performance. He said he is processing the losses poorly. But he believes the team is heading in the right direction. He just wishes the wins would start showing up.

The Road Ahead

The Raiders have a lot of work to do if they want to turn things around. But Carroll is confident that they can do it. He has a history of success, and he is not ready to give up on this team.
