The Las Vegas Raiders look to rebound as they face the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 9. Here are the x-factors for the Silver and Black to win the matchup.

The Las Vegas Raiders’ season may be on the brink with a 2-5 record, but believe it or not all hope is not lost. The Silver and Black are just two games behind the Chargers, who hold the seventh and final AFC playoff spot with a 4-3 record.

It’s a tall task that requires execution from the entire team, but the Raiders can steer the ship back on track by stringing together a couple of wins.

That begins on Sunday versus the Jaguars, where Las Vegas hopes to overcome their longstanding torture from east coast road games.

While the Jaguars are 2-6 and 1-3 when at home, the Raiders cannot afford to overlook any opponent at this rate. Las Vegas’ offense desperately needs to play up to expectations, and the defense is in dire need of a second playmaker to rise to the occasion.

Here are the x-factors for the Raiders to beat the Jaguars on Sunday.
