Can the Raiders be the Bay Area's team in 2015? - FanSided

Maybe everyone should’ve taken note about the soon-to-be rise of the Oakland Raiders when they beat the San Francisco 49ers 24-13 in Week 14 last year. But there’s something different about the Oakland Raiders as they go into the preseason this year, something that hasn’t been around the organization since their last Super Bowl run in 2002. Considering that the 49ers have had the Bay’s football... It’s a step down from the back-to-back 4-12 records they posted the previous two years, which is a big step backward from the consecutive 8-8 seasons they recorded in 2010-11. At least, if there’s anything that can be said about Oakland, it’s that... While those aren’t numbers that will blow anyone away, when you put those numbers up against the Raiders quarterbacks of recent past, Carr added significant value to that position.
