Las Vegas Raiders start season 3-0 under Klint Kubiak

The Las Vegas Raiders have started the season with a 3-0 record under new head coach Klint Kubiak, marking their first such start since 2021. This success is attributed to newfound continuity at the head coach and quarterback positions, with Kirk Cousins leading the offense to average 29.3 points per game.

Raiders coach Klint Kubiak noted that the team's preseason preparations included rotating offensive linemen to account for potential injuries, a strategy that is being tested as right guard Jackson Powers-Johnson recovers from a groin injury. Caleb Rogers is expected to step into a larger role during this period.

Kansas City Chiefs offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy remarked that the current Raiders' performance reminds him of the storied ‘Oakland Raiders’ era. Additionally, Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes expressed respect for the Raiders' talent and defensive intensity heading into their upcoming matchup.
