Raiders-Seahawks Week 10: 5 things to watch

Posted by Admin November 13, 2026 NFL

The 4-5 Las Vegas Raiders host the 5-4 Seattle Seahawks on Sunday. Kickoff is set for 1:05 p.m. PT. Here are five keys to victory:

Be perfect on offense:

The Raiders committed five turnovers in the second half of a 38-17 road loss at the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday. The turnovers included two in the 49ers’ end zone and a Pick Six. That’s not going to work against Seattle. The Raiders are going to have to play clean in Fernando Mendoza’s start debut against that defense to have a chance.

Get to the quarterback:

Drew Lock is a game manager. The backup, who is playing for an injured Sam Darnold, is not going to wow anyone and he can be forced into making errors. The Raiders must harass him.

Use intel:

Raiders head coach Klint Kubiak was Seattle’s offensive coordinator last year when they won the Super Bowl. He knows this roster well. He needs to scheme up a win.

Brock, Brock, Brock:

The Raiders need to be carried by their best player in this game. The tight end is putting up huge numbers every week. Las Vegas has to be willed to victory by Bowers. Fernando find Brock and do it often.

Stop the run:

Las Vegas has been getting gutted by the run every week. San Francisco had 190 yards on the ground this week. Expect Seattle to try to do the same. Las Vegas has to finally stop the bleeding on the ground.
