Raiders Have Chance to Take Lead in Two All-Time Series
While wins haven't been quite as easy over the last two decades, the Las Vegas Raiders still have a rich history of winning in the NFL.
So much so that with their approaching 2023-24 schedule, they have only two losing records out of all 17 all-time match-ups to the Green Bay Packers and the New England Patriots.
Las Vegas has a chance to take the lead in two of those 17 series this season, as the Raiders are tied in their all-time regular-season series against the Chicago Bears and the Miami Dolphins.
The Raiders and Bears are tied 8-8, while the record against Miami stands at 18-18-1.
Las Vegas led Chicago until October 2021 when the Bears defeated the Raiders 20-9.
The game had been rather even most of the way, but a 14-0 second-quarter burst by Chicago proved to be the difference as Las Vegas fell to 3-2 to start the year.
The Raiders and Bears' history dates to 1972, a game the Silver and Black won, 28-21, led by an 82-yard rushing performance from Raiders running back Clarence Davis and a 10-for-11 completion display from legendary quarterback Ken Stabler.
The teams will face off at Soldier Field in Chicago on Week 7 of the 2023 season.
As for Miami, the Raiders evened the series in 2021 when they won on a walk-off field goal from Daniel Carlson in Week 3.
The Raiders were led by running back Peyton Barber, who went off for 111 rushing yards, 31 receiving yards, and a touchdown in the victory.
Raiders quarterback Derek Carr threw for 386 yards and two touchdowns against the Dolphins.
The Silver and Black's all-time series against Miami dates to 1966. The Raiders won the first five regular-season meetings, a streak that ended three years before the Dolphins' perfect 14-0 season in 1972.
The teams will meet at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami on Week 11 this season. While Al Davis and Don Shula will be nowhere to be seen, it doesn't take away from the rivalries' history.
