The Las Vegas Raiders spent a ton of money on their defense the past two offseasons, and unfortunately, are still getting the same result.

After another game that saw the Las Vegas Raiders defense allow more than 30 points, there is reason to worry in terms of just how far this team can go. The organization has spent a ton of money trying to fix that side of the ball over the past two offseasons, but they are currently getting no bang for their buck.

As we go deeper into the 2020 season, something has go to give.

Defense ranks in the bottom of the NFL in most categories

The 2020 season has seen the Raiders once again struggled on the defensive side of the ball, as they are not causing turnovers, and are getting gashed on a consistent basis. They are not getting any kind of push up front,

Since Paul Guenther arrived, this has been a group that has been one of the worst in football, and many members of Raider Nation are calling for him to be fired. Looking at his team statistics since his arrival, it is easy to see why there is so much unrest in the fan base, and for those who are squeamish, you may want to look away.

Josh Dubow from the Associated Press tweeted this out on Monday

That just is not going to get it done, and it seems like no matter who the Raiders bring in via free agency, they just do not produce in the Silver and Black. We saw it last year, and we are seeing it in 2020, so eventually, something has got to give.
