It has left fans looking to the draft to see if they can add their franchise quarterback of the future.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">It was another disastrous performance from the Silver and Black in a 31-0 loss. Next up, they face the hot Houston Texans on the road, where they are 14.5-point underdogs, which is their biggest spread of the season. They are the favorite to pick number one in the draft this spring, and it would be a massive upset if they beat the Texans.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">In this week\u2019s SB Nation Reacts, we ask Raider Nation what their confidence is in the team\u2019s direction. Heading into Week 16, the Nation is not excited about the future. We saw a drop from 10% to their lowest of the season, at 6% confidence in the team\u2019s direction.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">It might drop even lower if it is another blowout against the Texans. With Geno Smith back in the lineup, the team will hope to make it a game worth watching.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Las Vegas Raiders are 2-12 after eight losses in a row.
