The Las Vegas Raiders embarrassed themselves in New Orleans, here are the studs and duds from a massive loss to the Saints.

Stud – No One

Let’s just get this part out of the way before we dive into the long list of duds. Absolutely no one in the Raiders organization can be given the “stud” category this week after a horrendous performance in New Orleans.

The Raiders were outcoached, out-executed, and outplayed for 4 quarters of football and they may have essentially ended their season with this stinker of a performance. It was one of the embarrassing performances of the last decade for this team especially when you consider the opponent and the expectations around this team.

We will deep dive into some of the failures but for now, the only possible studs here are the Raiders fans that made the trip out to the Superdome to watch this massacre in person. They are the only ones that deserve credit for their performance on Sunday as they had to suffer through that misery. Now let’s dive into the many duds for this week.
