The Las Vegas Raiders offense was supposed to dominate the opposition.
After all, quarterback Derek Carr is coming off an impressive season with 4,804 yards and 23 touchdowns.
Having Josh McDaniels on board should have injected more creativity into their offense.
Likewise, they have steady contributors like slot receiver Hunter Renfrow and tight end Darren Waller.
Finally, they traded for Davante Adams before giving him a five-year, $141.25 million contract.
Unfortunately, the Raiders haven’t won in three games despite their immense talent on offense.
Worst yet, Adams regressed over those three weeks.
However, the two-time All-Pro isn’t dwelling on his decreased production.

Adams said regarding his adjustment period with the Raiders, “All the Green Bay people will definitely still be on that, trying to compare the stats and all that. But we’re not doing this thing for stats at the end of the day.”
The five-time Pro Bowler had a promising start to his Las Vegas stint with 141 yards and a touchdown against the Los Angeles Chargers.
But since then, he only had a combined 48 yards in their last two games.
As a consolation, Adams scored a touchdown in all three games.
Still, it’s uncharacteristic to see him having stat lines of two receptions for 12 yards like he had in Week 2 versus the Arizona Cardinals.
The Raiders Will Get Going
Las Vegas ranks seventh in passing yards per game with 266.7.
But in contrast, they are 28th in rushing yards with 80 per game.
Adams and the Raiders offense should also get more help from their defense because they are not pulling their weight through three games.
They are ranked 26th in passing yards allowed (267 per game) and 24th in points allowed (25.7 per game).
The Raiders cannot afford to go 0-4 after their Week 4 game against the Denver Broncos.
