Despite having a seven-point lead for most of the game, the Las Vegas Raiders could not hold on for a Christmas Eve victory on the road against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Falling in disappointing fashion 13-10.
After last week’s last-second miracle against New England, the Silver-and-Black could not spark another big win in Week 16. The Raiders (6-9) were unable to contain the Steelers (7-8) late as rookie quarterback Kenny Pickett, who completed 26-of-39 passes for 244 yards, went on a last-minute drive, capped off by a 14-yard touchdown pass to George Pickens with 46 seconds left.
This game had shades of the loss against the Los Angeles Rams two weeks ago as Las Vegas could not hold on to another second-half and two-possession lead.
With that in mind, here are four winners and losers from the Las Vegas Raiders’ sad setback.
